Sekhema -> Terracotta Sentinels can regen all life ???

So i finally decided to go for my 3rd Ascendency but now that i'm close to level 80 i need to go through 3 trials instead of 2 . Which means farming to have easier time with trials is a nono which is #1 BS design .

#2 BS design is how the fuck can a Monk with 70% Dodge , 70% Armour , 15% Block , Max Res , and so on ... who lost only 100 Honour against #1 Boss and arrive against the #2 Boss ( Terracotta Sentinels ) with maxed honour at 5000 and be wiped out ??? That boss fight is an absolute slugfest as a melee character and those fuckers keep spamming room wide AOE tracking you like a laser guided missile ( #2 BS design ) , do i need to go ranged to get through that shit ???

Now for #3 BS design : how the FUCK is it acceptable to regen ALL LIFE to one of those Bosses when you bring the first one down ?! I had litterally him at 5% life when i killed the frost one , then the double boss bars switch to a single one who stayed at 5% for 10 second before being filled up completely while i was dodgin attacks left and right

I thought the changes were fine after the last patch due to how easy it is to get the 1st Ascendency but trying to get that 3rd one is starting to piss me off .

That boss is really though. Start by getting 75% Honour Resistance, you can buy the relics if you don't have them already, from your failed runs. If you don't have honour resistance, they deal like 2k honour damage in one hit.

Other then that, the classical, take the +50% dmg/-30% monster life boons if possible, stack relics with Monsters/Bosses take #% increased damage (after capping honour resistance), -7% Monsters move/cast/attack speed is nice also, bring them down asap.

As melee, I'd recommend buying lower level Sanctums. Lvl 62 I think is enough for 3rd ascendancy, lvl 74 for 4th.

Thks for the input , i already got relics geared toward honour max/res but from that run i got two other relics who gives +70% def increase . I'll give it another go with a less melee build ; it's impossible to get close to those things without losing everything .

Ha the worst is yet to come. I defeated those 2 guys after many tries, I was so excited and ready to get my 3rd acendancy points but guess what? Nope there is a third door of trials and the monsters were so strong I died in first room, couldn't believe I have to do so much more still... doubt I will try again until I have one of those 1 shot meta builds.

Yeah man i was aware of that bad news when all the Trials token i could obtain were no more 2 Trials to get Ascendency but 3 Trials instead ... that's why i opened by complaining this is a BS design to punish players for farming in preparation of trials .

GGG = You leveled up for our BS trial ? Let's level up the trials as well and put more bosses in it , enjoy !

No thanks .

These guys were giving me hard time earlier. It is possible to kill the both before the second guy regains health but my DPS is not that high. So, here is the trick - you can use shield charge to travel a later distance and get behind him and thus avoid the large AOE (for ranged builds, that is).

Just tried this; did it on first attempt, even with him regening all life, but at a cost of HALF my honor bar.

There is a sound queue followed by the one doing the attack raising his arm up, go behind him, you are also supposed to have a certain amount of DPS.

They ain't regen life or damage half your honour bar if you obliterate both of them in 5s .
If your build ain't ready , just avoid Sekhema , period lol .

OK

1 be ranged or have ranged attack.

Run in wide circles to group them in the center.
Now it up to your build how you want to do this but
you gotta keep em together and kill em both at the same time ...
OR Snipe one down to almost dead then the other to finish them off with AOE where they both die together... That is the vision i believe ....

But Im a monk too and yeah I can tell you its bullshit.
No only can they body block by standing side by side, forming a 1/2 arena diameter wall, they can then AOE at you trapped in that space...
