How important is the Trial of Chaos?

[Space Cowboy]

...cause it is unfun, it sucks and I can get to stage 3 tops before I die - and that's after finishing the campaign on normal and going back just for this. If it didn't ruin my build I might warm up to it but as it stands I just don't wanna waste time on it unless I ABSOLUTELY have to. So, how important is it?

it gives you two more ascendency skillpoints.
you must figure out on your own if its beneficial for your class/playstyle

but thers no need to do it now, you can do it whenever you like. maybe 10 more level ups will make it easier. no need to waste time now if you dont realy need the skills points to go on

very important

Level up and come back later. When it comes to the debuffs, choose things that affect you the least, and won't insta kill you like doom circle or petrification. Anything that restricts your movement greatly is a death sentence.

Hey Space Cowboy, want to team up?

You only have to clear 3 rooms and a boss. It's fine unless you get that angry bird, in that case... good luck.

Just do it 20 levels later and you'll be fine. It's not that game breaking to get the points the second you have access to ToC. I went in there at 55 or so, and still died once because bad rng options.
Same goes for first 2 points in Sekhemas; go in there with 10+ levels and flatten the place (or have OP build/gear).

Huh... I just did it. I didn't expect only having to do 4 arenas - the game told me that I'd have to do 10!? If I had known that before I would have gone into it with a lot more motivation.

trails sux, and later even harder and make the game totally unfun by stupid rng elements for char development. just stupid mechanic.

they are pretty challenging if you do solo-self found, playing without trading. But pretty easy if you buy a couple pieces of gear for 1-2 ex
