Trials are too difficult and they are killing player progression

"
I literally leveled from level 80-90 doing almost entirely sekhemas trials.

They're not hard.

You just need to get 75% honor resist and as much +max honor on relics and it's a cakewalk.


Unless you are playing melee. On 4th floor one projectile = -500 honor with 75% res. Good luck doing all those mobs melee.

Alright, while i agree that the system is trash and it is. There is NO way you are not completing a lvl 75 Trial with a strong Monk build, whatever that means. Monk is a fucking joke with little gear. There is no way, it´s one of the strongest classes in this game, whith very little gear needed to go "boom".
I'll preface this by saying I work two jobs, and don't have time to no-life Poe, but wouldn't for the life of me want GGG to dumb down the game for someone who can't play it like a job.

The more the devs listen to the Care bears the worse the game gets. PoE 1 is already trending downwards (breach tree, Kingsmarch, etc.). If Jonathan wants PoE 2 to have legs the game needs to hold players accountable and maintain a level of rigor that makes progression deep and meaningful. Hence, most players issue with the game are more often than not a skill issue. Invest in improving yourself and complain less. The game will be much more enjoyable. Alternatively, D4 is just a download away.
They need to apply No gain exp and not lose exp to Trial of Sekhema & Chaos like they did on end-game bosses. To me i m certain i have no problems with these but RNG factor making it discouraging.

Ex i don't wanna force take to "You have no Evasion or ES" during Stage 4 - 6 of sekhemas which leads a lot of time wasting.

Or unavoiadable debuffs from Trial of Chaos.
trials are easy and the whole poe2 game is too easy.
"Trial" definition:
A situation that tests someone's patience, strength, faith, or endurance — often something unpleasant or challenging.


I say Trails are fine. Chaos needs better rewards and that's it.

Your build is weak. You want one button click. You want screenblasting quick. But game your ass a little kick.
