Your own or other people's?
Ya care to walk us through the events that transpired step-by-step, OP?
Don't get lost by being so focused on the target that you forget to enjoy your surroundings.
What I think is happening:

GGG doesn't track "remaining honor > 0", but "lost honor".

Everyone has his "own hidden max honor" and the "visible max honor" reflects only the trial owner. Or maybe even "honor damage" that gets mitigated by honor resistance.

This random guy (and some random guy's wife who complained about getting killed during the trial) has low max honor and no honor resistances.

So say someone has currently 5k of 10k honor.
This is 5k honor damaged.

Guys without resistances and defenses have like 1k honor. And they take 5k honor damage on entry.

And this is enough to kill this guy like 5 times upon entering the trial.

I am not sure if sticking a bunch of tapestry in your own device will actually fix all this non-sense.

I think you should try:

1. Stick all kind of tapestry in your device to stack max honor.
2. Respec your tree to have 300%+ ES increase, and buy dogshit ES gear, that only has high ES with garbage secondary stats.

If this doesn't work - wait for the GGG to fix this garbage mechanic.

Or plan B - wait for 0.4.0 to play the other ascendancy way.
