Trial of the sekkhemas is the biggest joke in this game.

So playing SSF doing the twin bosses for my 5th and 6th ascension point.

Got them down without trouble. 200 years after they are dead and I go to collect the loot there are damaging spells/hits that hit me and remove 30% of my honor.

I love trial of the sekkhemas so much. You should have more honor reducing damage after defeating bosses.

Fire dmg ticks down your honor for 500 years after the dmg has been dealt also.

GGG you need to fix your shit. This is completely unnacceptable.

The absolute worst mandatory content in an ARPG in a very long time.

SSF

Its insane trash.

Nothing like completely changing the core gameplay for your ascendancy points.

Plus you can't restart after completed floors. INSANE. Absolute fucking bonkers waste of time- AND its not fun. Nice.

Can't update your relics except on completely new runs.

Evasion builds have massive advantages, some builds literally just can't do it at all. Not sure what thorns builds do, any sort of recoup builds.

They were trying to win the dogshit awards on this one.

I've never seen so many people complain about the same thing before. MANY posts, some very long posts. High percentile of people hate it.

Its simply not the same game.

Trials are no better.

that's why i quitted in january, GGG expects players to play with no or less resistance/armor/def but their bugs are around not fixing this gamebreaking, no fun, one shot, trap mechanic that is not even a puzzle

really bad, really bad design ...

they can now play their own game and find out how to do it, i am not wasting 5 hours just to get rekt by a single shot/trap

and there is 0 skill, it's all pure bug and unbalanced madness
Pretty sure nearly everyone is ssf for their trials in this game



If you can’t do sekhemas and want to preface it with ssf as if it makes it harder or something….



At this point just do chaos trial. It’s purely on your end struggling with sekhemas.

Sekhemas takes no time, Zarokh has been over nerfed, and no archetype or game mode makes it any more difficult than the other.

You don’t even need honor resist anymore for these things with how easy they are.

+1 sadly
Then explain why a billion people are complaining about it if you think everything is fine?

For me its just boring, buggy, weirdly tuned content. Some builds cant do it. Thorns etc.

So yeah. I hope GGG is cooking up something diff to ascend cause this is trash for the reasons other have explained in a million posts as well.

The fact that you cant go again in SSF after failing (skill issue I know) is also stupid
Because the forums are not billions of people. Lmfao



Explain why I don’t struggle with this as a melee warrior is the better question, and you’ll arrive at what I already stated


I do these every single league, under leveled even, and have 0 issues


And then in endgame I even farm these when mapping gets boring

0 honor resist relics



If you don’t like sekhemas this much. Just run chaos. Or improve.

SSF you ….do get to go again. It’s not hardcore


Your choice.

Actually there are 22k players online tops, so this is a game made for little to 20k players all over the world, matey.

It's now a niche game. When it will be free, maybe maybe, 100k - 150k. And Tencent has many games that has a wide variety of players, from ages 10 to 25, target audience, always. At this numbers, right now, it's on a downhill.

I do not know why is so frustrating to get your build right in ascendancy trials at this point.

Died 3 times in a row to this bosses, i play mercenary and without marketplace i get one-shoted from screen playing with zoom, because ... gazillion of traps, everything is messy, my head is not wrapped to the display, i play on the couch, but i guess, me is to comfy for this trap game to get all my progress erased, it's 0 fun and a waste of time.
Play chaos trial instead


Getting skill diffed by sekhemas is all that is happening there
