Ascendancy Trials in POE2 make the game completely unbearable and unfun.

"
Trials are fine and fun. If your problem is not having enough Baryas or Ultimatums (which really isn't an issue either, unless you are trying to do the trials underleveled), just buy some in trade. They are super cheap.

Also: If you're not using honor resistance, that's on you.

tl;dr: no.


Nope they are total time wasting trash.
No problem with him.

Trials are horse shit.
Remove this dogshit mechanic from the game, ffs. Bricking core character progression behind such a stupid RNG sh*t is super annoying.
Ascendancy trials fit perfectly to the philosophy of PoE 2. I will go a little further and give ascendancy poits only to people who complete them from start to the end, making carries little bit harder.
Just save up and spend 1 div in trade chat to get a carry and get all 8 points at once. It'll be the best div you've ever spent. I'll never do another ascendency trial again, period.
This is such a terrible system. They are specifically walling progression behind RNG and mini games. WHY DO DEVS DO THIS?????? We want to play the game you spent hundreds of hours making, not the dumb mod that some power tripping hardcore dev decided to tack on. WFT is this. GET IT OUT OF THE GAME.

I have gone through these trials again and again... I have made it to the end of the 3rd trial almost every time... The super fast hard to scratch scorpion is fucking bad enough, but now I reach the end of the 2nd trial, take out one golem, took out 2nd golem, but instead of dying, it regenerated its entire health bar and went into rage mode covering the entire boss are in 1 shot mechanics that span the entire floor, unfair isn't a strong enough word for this stupidity. It's like they don't want people to play their game... I am one that will try over and over until I get it, but this??? Fuck this game
