The trident is a type of sword in the game. It is the weapon of choice for dragoons in Atlantis frays. Unlike most swords, the trident is not available to players.

The trident has strong sprinkles and a very strong middle strike - similar to that of a Stiletto. In larger quantities (when Dragoons are teaming) the pattern can quickly lead to death and its advised to stall in such situations. However, the monochrome corners make it relatively easy to break bigger parts of the board.

Due to the prevalence of sprinkle attacks being sent back and forth, its advised to equip a strong sprinkling sword such as a Skull dagger when entering Atlantis.

Trivia

According to Wikipedia, the trident is actually a three-pronged spear rather than a sword.
