Can Trick be saved

Unfortunately, you cannot complete the mission Stillwatch without defeating Trick. Attempts to skip turns or exclude a hero from the squad by loading an old save will lead to nothing. Trick will continue to attack you, and you won't be able to reason with him.
Trick's Fate

Fortunately, Trick does not die during the passage of Stillwatch. Hawks takes him with him, andM-3VOprovides all the necessary medical assistance. In the end, Trick returns to the team, but several more missions will have to be completed without him.
