Ascension trials need to be removed

[Renegated Evrae]

I don't know who was the genius that decided that, in order to ascend, you had to play 2 OF THE MOST HATED MECHS OF POE1, with the aggravant that in both cases you need a specific build to play said content, otherwise it's not a viable option.

How are melee supposed to complete the Sekhema trial when literally they can't be touched? How are squishy characters supposed to complete any of the ascensions if they need to avoid everything on both modes, with the aggravant that on Ultimatum they can die just because they are standing still?

You only had one job to do, that was respect the golden rule: "If it works, don't touch it, otherwise you will ♥♥♥♥ it up". Give us the original ascension, the Labyrinth one, with new lore if needed, since we do not touch Sarn, you can make it a Vaal Labyrinth instead, but something everyone can complete instead of forcing the mechanics onto the players like you did with ArchNemesis back in the day, that you ruined 3 leagues until you decided to listen to the community.

I'm hard stuck, I can get to the boss fine, but I die no matter what to boss. It's bs lol

I go in with 80% honour and it goes fine then I just can't dodge all the mechanics, the stuff falling from ceiling is the breaking point imo.

They need to rework this crap.

I legit feel bad for melee players, omg I can't even imagine how bad that must be.

If it's the Golem, wait until he ends the first attack, then you can get close. That removes most of the honour, so be carefull with that.

trial 1 as warrior gave me cancer and killed my grandma. I beat the boss by kiting it with a terrible bow and doing nothing warrior-like except jumping away from volcanos. I haven't beaten Chaos trial yet and having significant trouble on it.

[ShivaX]

Trial of Chaos made the game go from a 9 to a 1 for me.
Possibly a 0.

They'd doing Labs Only Worse and I quit their game years ago because of Labs and never looked back. They're not going to remove them. They might slightly nerf them, but they'll still be unfun crap.

I don't understand how they can take a game this good and then put this crap in. Again.
It's like they made an awesome meal and then ♥♥♥♥ on the plate.

[Zerg]

FOR REAL. This is trash tier game development. I'm ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ done with POE2 until they remove ultimatum. It's such a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ascension system it's not even funny.

[Haseo]

I agree that trials are the worst content in the game and only reason I even do them is the accendancy points. Otherwise I would never touch them again. First 2 are still fine but that 3rd one is insane actually. I tried lvl 65 sekhema trial with 3 floors and I just couldn't keep my honour untill the end and failed in 3rd floor, halfway through. I beat first floor and second floor bosses but I had so many ailments going on in 3rd one that I got hit by something and just lost 50% of honour instantly lol.

I will just give up on 3rd and 4th accendancy points. It is just not worth it.

[Arngrim]

Like I said earlier first two trials are a non-issue, but really I´d be fine with just getting the points from a story beat at the end of acts and gating the fourth point behind the endgame.

I don't know how someone wants to give feedback talking as if the devs were idiots and still think they will pay attention to you.

Well, thinking that people will thank putting something as important as the ascendancy behind 1 of the most hated mechanics and behind 2 mechanics that on PoE1 need builds made SPECIFICALLY FOR THEM on a game that not only has no builds whatsoever, but on top of that it's extremely restrictive when it comes to building and supporting the skills...

I'm not gonna call them idiots, but it's not like we can call them the sharpest knife of the kitchen precisely, considering the fact that, as said, they decided to choose 2 mechs that need builds made specifically to farm said mechs and that, unless you like them, people flee from those mechs like if they were the pest.

Right now they made the exact same move they made with ArchNemesis, "You don't like the mech? Well ♥♥♥♥ it, you're gonna play it, independently of the fact you liking it or not.", and the result were 3 leagues down the drain because you had the chance to be nuked on the first act due to how OP the rares were.

[hellscream]

Done them but yeah, same as the trail in D4... pointless gate keeping. Marvel Heroes Omega tried it aswell... all it does it lock out players who then just quit lol.

[Vileoxe]

I beat the first trail today after leveling to 28 so i could spend more points into defence to get more honor, also got lucky to get a 13% more damage against trail bosses relic.

After i killed the boss i got a 10% and 18% honor resistance relic.
Playing as a witch.

[Googledebunker]

I beat both trials on my warrior after 2 tries on each. Ask a buddy for the Ultimatum.

I beat Sekh by using some totems to distract enemies so I can beat on them without taking hits. It's challenging, but not impossible.

[5P4RK4]

if you are too squishy for ultimatum you're going to have a real bad time in maps lol

Its a cold day in hell when I say that I actually want the Labrinth back.

Labyrinth was Fun IMO, however it was kind of linear

idk, I got lost the first time I did the Labyrinth and hated it ever since. haven't gotten far enough for PoE 2 ascension so maybe I'll hate it too

[Jørn]

The trials are hot garbage
