Fourth Ascendancy Is Absurd

[OmgItsPeaches]

In weighing my options for my fourth ascendancy, I decided to do the Trials of Chaos to get my fouth ascendancy because, well, it seemed pretty straightforward: just do ten rounds and then do a boss with a ton of health. Certainly a lot better than the absolutely horrific honor system in the other trials. I now just learned that I need to do ten rounds MINIMUM of the Trials of Chaos to get three parts for the door, which you can get duplicates of, and only THEN can I fight the last boss. Dawg. I am so tired of these garbage trials and ascendancy requirements it's so stupid. Want to do it through Trials of Chaos? Get four entry orbs MINIMUM and run through it all those times just to get ONE SHOT AT THE BOSS. Or you could do the other trials and completely breeze through it just to get 80% of your honor removed in one hit with 75% honor resist. Awesome! Doing it as a melee character like me? Give up! You will not be able to do the Sekhemas trials because you are inherently disadvantaged via the honor system. Now I am stuck going on a boring and stupid journey through the Trials of Chaos thirty times just to get two ascendancy nodes bruh. I'm not doing that. What a waste of time. I'm gonna wait until GGG fixes that because I KNOW everyone else is complaining about this. It's so stupid

Yeah sadly it's in a very bad place atm.

It takes 20 minutes to do either trial or sanctum stop complaining. Sanctum is the easiest content in the game. Relics=massive power creep you cant get anywhere else.

Usually I'd just tell you to "git gud" but yesterday I was running the Sekhema Trial, was in the last room before the FINAL boss of the trial, had taken maybe 500 damage all run (because necro are OP like that) and it the final escape trial I'm like "haha I got this" and go first beacon, second beacon, thWTF WHY DID I JUST DIE?? Ridiculous how something that I couldn't see could oneshot me without me having ANY way to see, hear, smell, react or do anything about it. I even consulted my tarot deck and even that couldn't tell me I was gonna get one-shot dropped... in the last room. Right before the boss. I had maybe a total of 2 minutes left of this GOD AWFUL DREARY MASOCHISTIC TORTUREPORN that I'd wasted well over an hour by that point.

I did with melee and beat the final boss with 70% of my honour still remaining, make sure you use your honour resistance relics, forget what the cap is but i make sur ei have above 75%.

Chaos trials is for the birds though, better off running 1-2 and then buying whatever keys you're still missing then running one more. Also grab a corrupting blood immunity jewel, just makes it alot easier being able to slot one free debuff.

Honor system is very odd to me, go from nearly full honor to just insta all gone.
