Can't get to 3rd Ascendancy Trail for 5th and 6th Ascendancy point.

same

same issue

as of 12/11 I have done both the trials of chaos and djinn bara stuff; still not fixed even with new text for the items indicating ascendancy.

If anyone wants to know, I believe I have the answer, gleaned from Ventrua's YT video, where he his build has 6 ascendency points.

You know how you can alter your sanctum run trial to add another floor? Do that again (twice, for 3 floors total).

Correct, completing the THIRD floor of the sanctum, will result in ascendency points 5 & 6.

To anyone confused: You need a 3 floor trial of sekhema, this starts at level 60. However there is indeed a bug I believe with Ultimatum trial, the same level trial which is the 7 room trial does not give 3rd ascendancy, you have to wait til red maps from what I've heard before you can get a higher level trial. Which is undoubtedly a bug. Both level 60 trials should give 3rd ascendancy.

See this thread and post there: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3598738/page/74

Many people are unable to do 3rd and 4th trials despite having correct discs. No update from GGG on it other than they are looking at it (post reply from 12/9).

same issue

I have this issue for a couple days now its frustrating.
I dont remember fully what happend but my theorie how it happend is:

I got the ascension quest "Acent to Power" and had to search traitors passage to find the the boss and kill the traitor. I killed the boss, the npc for the quest spawned and i died to poisen or some sort of DoT effect. Then i resurected at the waypoint/checkpoint and went back to the boss area but the npc progressing the quest wasnt there anymore.

I think that was the way that bricked that quest for me.

+1 it still hasn't been fixed. this really needs to be a priority fix

I can't keep up trying to help because a new thread about this is being made every time I look away, oof.

Cruel 2 is not a quest for the Third Set of Ascendency points. Technically the quest shouldn't even show up, I wager, if you have already done it in Normal 2, but it's EA and one day, we won't even HAVE a Cruel set of Acts (which will likely resolve this entire issue).
