Trial making me quit

[Blenderhead]

Trials are still extremely frustrating and the honor system is completely stupid. At least give a checkpoint in the second sehkmas trial. it takes way too long to get all the way to the second boss and any time some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mechanic can knock out half your honor. And you dont even get your key back. this would be fine for some optional content or something but for major character progression its absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid

whole game is just garbage. would wait about 5 years for it to be mediocre

literally almost everything else about the game is amazing for EA, but the trials are just a complete joke and not fun

Why are you still here then.

Just accept the fact you will play with 4 ascendency points for now. Like i cant even get single coin for third ascendency in 20 hours of mapping...

Izaro for president!

Is it any better after the recent patch? Also, when should I do them. I got the item in Act 2, but I've been too scared to do it after everything I've heard.

You can repeat the quest coin, its not consumed as regular one. If you are melee, just skip to second. Ultimatum is kinda fine.

Yeah the chaos one isnt as bad, I was able to do that on warrior. I dont even wanna think about doing second sekhmas on warrior. The honor system is completely antithetical to warrior playstyle

agree w u op
honor in sekhemas and ultimatum are both comprised of the most annoying rng-heavy activities from poe1 that the majority of players avoided. the devs decided to make it unavoidable for poe2 and it's upsetting to say the least

I LOVED ultimatum in PoE. Dunno hiw they managed to ruin it this hard in PoE2. PoE ultimatum was like 1-2 minutes slaughterfest and you were done with 10 rounds+boss. Now it takes about 154 years just to run into huge arena for single round....

honor res as high as possible... by grinding and luck finding some ritual items

those modes were never my thing because my build simply couldn't survive lol. but at least if i got lucky i could clear it. the best part about it in poe1 was that it was optional though. i could skip it/end early if i wanted to because my build wasnt tanky enough or whatever

It was usualy easy enough to get 5 fast rounds for catalysts for any build.

It was just fast and debuffs were not such hardbricking trollfest. Last time in PoE2 Ultimatum? Getting to bird boss in rather small arena - pyramid with corrupted blood lasers at middle covering whole arena, huge falling meteor impacting whole arena area, huge orbital lasers covering 90% of arena. Boss was just teleporting around while i spend whole time rolling just to avoid 3 debuffs...

dont paly a warrior is all i gott say

[Dthomaz]

Same here, i lost all my motivation to play, can't ascend, can't lvl because maps don't drop, finally drop a map died and lost 10% xp. Really fun endgame...

Maybe i'll take a break for some weeks or until they introduce other classes and weapons.
