Run some easier trials, get good relics that increase honor resistance and size.
You need to be strategic, gather water, buy buffs.

The real problem is they spell it "honour", which is objectively wrong and inferior. :bill:

Also, today is 12/21/24 and it's 28°F outside. Armor is important in this game. Aluminum.

My relic locker is full, I get to the scorpion boss every time with full honour but he just hits like a truck and jumps at you randomly like 3 hits and its over and you just wasted 45mins.

How is it RNG? You can choose which rooms to head toward. Ultimatum is a little bit of RNG, but even there you can choose what fks you slightly less.

So your locker is full. And?

Are you actually capping your honour resistance at 75%?

If you're having trouble with the scorpion don't get more max honour. Get some increased defenses and some boss damage affixes on your Relics. The more damage you have the shorter the fight will be and the less damage you will take. Alternatively, fix your build and/or get better gear.

Additional merchant choices on Relics are also a big deal because getting 50% more damage and 50% more defenses boons is huge. More choices means a bigger chance to get those boons.

A large part of the Trial depends on your pathing and choices on your way to the boss. If your boons looks something like this all you need is left click the boss. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/43444870532691792/D20B53FBA4FA51710D26E4B7A940B624E3BC2B5C/

ranged murder from range avoid honour loss, but melee has to hit things with the hitting stick. I skipped trials and chaos also its just more annoying bs

Done it three times so far. Witch, pathetically easy, no issues at all, easy wins all around. Second was sorcerer, slightly harder because my build was off, but did it in one, took less damage just took longer, lost maybe 50 points of honor the whole dungeon.

Then did my warrior. OMFG, he's a TANK. I built him to stand there and get get the stuffing pounded out of him. He has great healing and massive armor. I stand around until I see a red attack, dodge a bit and then come back normally. All of that causes honor loss in the trial. Literally the current boss can't actually 'hurt' me, but he can destroy my honor super easy.

They need to rebalance honor for the melee characters, it is totally out of wack.

Trials are not fun at all. Thats the problem despite the trolls on steam forums pretending a shiney turd is not a turd. I beat all but 4th ascend and I find none of them fun.

I hope you stub your toe every day for the rest of your life with that nonsense.

I'll be another voice that says "I hate trials"

I wouldn't do them if wasn't for ascendancy points.

I noticed that they're trying to mimic the Gacha game's gauntlet mode, but they missed the mark of what makes those mode fun.

Stupid question time! Are you adding the relics to the trial because they’re meaningless inside the locker?

Trials of Sekhema ♥♥♥♥ you know what im saying?
I got no honour problem but the Zarokh gets me all the time, not due to the fight but the stupid mechanics.
He teleports away and you have to collect hourglasss in a specific time while getting slowed down more and more, even with ~50% movement speed i am too slow if the hourglasses are placed far from eachother. I guess for that you need a lot of luck, a teleport skill or the +40% Movement speed boon.

I only managed this minigame two times after the first time he did the same again at around 20% hp with far wider placed hourglasses what let to my death.

And for the second time another mechanic killed me. He places an AOE field and teleports you into it and you have to evade out of it directly... but he placed the AOE field exactly on a time bubble what freezes you in time and teleported me onto it and ended the run this way.

That design is so frustrating, its no wonder that people with teleport builds and high dps make masses of currency by selling the service...

and all the time you have to run through four totally boring floors of maps to get to the boss.
