Tricks is one of the ways i deal with foes in a solo environment. Laying down a debuffing foundation offers a easier way to deal with multiple foes at once, and keep me from worrying to much about HP. If you bring along a friend burglar and use the trick debuffing style, have your friend use a power style of play the 2 of you will be practically unstoppable, especially since you both have Exploit Opening! Take along 6 burglars and guarantee nothing can touch your group of thieves! I dont have the best build but its been doing well for me for soloing so far.
