Follow him to a door then retreat back behind the door after peaking through. The trickster will probably follow you back through the door and you can surprise attack. Repeat.
If the trickster doesn't follow you after however many turns it would take him to get back to the door then persue to the next door. He should not attack as long as he has to run away so he might get a couple of hits in if you lag too far behind.
This works with scorpions in the demon halls as well. Does not work with bandits.
If he doesn't follow you after peaking you can sometimes get him to follow you by peaking through the door a second time and retreating again if he's still in view. Saves some hunger if the next door is far away.
But you're still trading health instead of hunger. Every peek gets you shot in the face.
Nope. He won't shoot you when you come through a door after him. He'll use a turn to move away. Then when you retreat he'll pursue you back through the door most of the time. It does help if you're pretty close when following him. He might shoot at you if he's far enough away, but that's part of managing the fight.
Done properly you can kill him without taking a hit.
He's pretty much never worked that way for me? Feeling a little confused right now, as I get shot in the face every time I get in LOS with him, sometimes when he's not even MY LOS, just like every other ranged mob.
