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

I refuse to attempt the trial again untill GGG have removed honor.

Well - i have bad news for you. They just released another blog post - doubling down on this stupid mechanic with these changes:

"
Trial of the Sekhemas

Players were finding Trial of the Sekhemas particularly frustrating in close range so we’ve reworked how Honour Damage scales when in close range, as well as fixing an important bug that was causing players to take far too much Honour Damage from Damage over Time.

Honour Damage now scales down based on distance to enemies, when in close range you’ll take 35% less Honour Damage, tapering off as you are further away from Monsters.


This changes NOTHING! 35% is laughable if you still get hit if in close range to DO DAMAGE. That also means you still get FULL damage of off this bs aoe spam in those arenas. This also means you still have all those negative multipliers and negative effects on you.

I have to tell you I was on board with at least Sanctum but I thought you have infinite tries...
I literally spent 24h farming a FUCKING COIN so that i can attempt another run.
FINALLY got some good boons and workable curses.
Then I run into a bugged Gauntlet room where a door doesn't open after activating the switch.

Ultimatum is just an RNG shitfest.

I wouldn't mind if there was either infinite tries to attempt your ascendency or we got them in any other way than this unfun, punishing, buggy mess.

I am so fucking salty right now. Im almost at maps and am still missing my 3rd ascendency.

I am literally SOOO fucking close to RMT some chinese bot to run this shit for me...

Should get partial flask charges after each section of trial of Chaos.

Lmao some people litterally doing t15s on 2 ascendancies. not saying that sanctum 3 trial is to hard at that point i nthe game, but that's what's going on xd
USE HONOR RESISTANCE RELICS. IT MAKES HONOR LOSSES NEGLIGIBLE. THEY COST NOTHING IF YOU DONT WANT TO FARM FOR THEM.



Instead of "durrrr, I'm ignoring a core component of a system and dying, let me cry about it and ignore the items that were designed for it".
I like poe 2
