The Trials are a Chore and a Nightmare

I feel like everyone has covered this but ill add to the pile. I cant stand the honor system in the trial and the overwhelming amount of debuffs that are given and STILL we must make ZERO mistakes to earn the ascendancy points. This is overtuned to all hell and it is in no way fun to play. This mechanic alone makes we want to stop playing when everything else has been great to play. Both sets of trials are massively over punishing for what they should be. Terrible design.
