Trial of Sekhemas is just unfair and not fun at all

Totally agree. Disproportionate, unfair and frustrating to say the least. I would like to meet the genius designer, super-hardcore kid who came up with this filthy garbage.
Trial of Sekhemas is for the super hardcore players. I was able to defeat each boss alone before this stupid test, but the test is ridiculously difficult and meaningless. I would have no problem passing it, but to unlock a certain character skill you have to do it. A SHAME. Game Breaker. I'm thinking about uninstalling and never coming back to this game. I don't buy a game to get frustrated. I got fed up. Refund requested on steam and game uninstalled. I will NEVER play this franchise AGAIN. Last edited by guillefil#1578 on Dec 29, 2024, 4:09:08 PM

The honor system is indeed extremely frustrating, shouldn't be something that puts you at square 1.
Tried to get my lvl 75 sorc's 3rd ascendancy 3 times today, all failed. The failures would usually be caused by 1-3 mistakes during the run like getting unlucky with a fire/poison trap or getting hit by a rare's special move. This would usually make my honor plummet by 1-3k points despite 27% resistance on relics. Makes me question if I wanna continue with the game. 2 hours with absolutely no fun or progress, just bitterness in the end. A good idea is probably to make the loot quality rely on honor - would be a fair trade-off. |

Honestly, i dont even mind the mechanics of the thing, honor and all, it is just way, Way, WAY too long. 8 rooms to a floor x 3 floors? 24 Rooms total?? Thats just nuts/pure insanity and does not respect my time at all.
Either get rid of the the 3rd floor entirely or keep the levels to 5 rooms max. |

One of the biggest problems I find with many of these trials is they expect everyone to have the reflexes of a teenager. Which many players and fans of this genre do not as the vast majority who actively play are 35+ in age.
Many of the mechanics only allow for 1 second response times, which is more like a FPS than a AARPG. |

i first want to say i have been loving this game ALOT, that being said im am so so so close to quitting cause of this bullshit mechanic. its not "Challenging" its punishing and has almost completely ruined the experience for me, un fun. and to lock points behind it feels almost insulting.
PLEASE fix this. thank you |

Just did my third trial at lvl 80 and still almost ran out of honor (from full) on the last 2 rooms of the last floor. It’s ridiculous that this could possibly be stressful to a lvl 80. The bosses themselves were all a joke, but ridiculous honor loss mechanics are ridiculously punishing and still way overturned for melee.
Also, it wasn’t fun. Besides the stress of maintaining honor, the entire ordeal was utterly boring. Last edited by maquino85#7657 on Dec 30, 2024, 7:34:15 PM

Finally beat the Scorpion boss and it was all on luck, just happened to get the you take no damage in the next room boon from the room before it. Would have been totally murdered with the amount of honor you lose on that thing without that boon.

Yeah i have loved everything about POE2 except this, imagine making a tanky build that cant get ascendancies without severely overlevelling content bc you want it locked behind "dont get hit mechanics".
Bring back Izaro bc he was honestly the best thing these devs ever actually implemented in their game hands down. Kinda mad i shelled out for liberator of wraeclast now tbh |

" gues what? not all players like sanctum or ulti and them being forced is just shit design grinding for relics who knows how much so you can get 2 points is just bad and you're full of it |
