3rd and 4th Ascendancies are near impossible

"
You should check out some of kingkongors warrior runs for the 4th floor, he was blasting and one shotting the boss with several people in the group as well.


Problem is not the boss. All bosses in this game is not a problem for this class (hello hammer of the gods). Problem is shit throwers on 4th floor. No matter what you do, you lose you honor very fast, because you DO NOT SHOOT.
Yeah they're so impossible I farm them both for currency and rare items.

It's not impossible for a lot of people. 4th ascendancy is not for everyone. Devs have already said this. Not everyone will be able to get their 4th. And that's the way it should be
Ssf player here. Made 4th in trial of chaos at level 90. not my favorite content, but doable.
I’m a melee.
Half the people on here saying they completed the trials, paid someone with an OP build and god tier gear to carry them thru them.
You should have them all by level 77, if not 67
character should be fully formed for end game.

As it is now , why bother doing the last ones, its when i quit the league.

They are probably the worst thing i have ever seen.
Its not hyperbole, the whole concept is such crap.
A whole area in a character development game.

That undoes all of you hundred hours of choice.
To turn your character into a gimp.

Fun, wonder why it's hated.

The third and fourth ascendancies are damn near impossible to finish for melee.

First, I spent the last 3 days farming for a Djinn Barya‌ token that would give me 3 floors, it finally dropped tonight (I've been playing 6-10 hours a day).

Second, the bosses' one shot mechanics are ridiculous. I spent several hours optimizing my build, gems, traded for better weapons, maxed my dps, practiced floors 1 and 2 on the older tokens I had, and I still died going through the trial due to a boss one shot.

The bosses damage is stupid, this needs to be lower.

Traps take away TOO MUCH honour when blowing up (every relic I took in had +max honour or +honour resistance and one bomb still took 1/3 of my 3K honour bar).

The drop rates for the tokens are horrendous. Its not fun farming for 20+ in game hours for one token to just die to a one shot mechanic. Guess I'll just roll some alts to see how they play then quit POE2 until something is fixed because I'm not wasting more time on this ascendancy BS and playing a half powered monk because I missing 4 crucial ascendancy points doesn't sound fun...


I feel your pain, if you want to hit me up in game I'd be happy to help you get your Ascendancies for free.

I Paid to get thru them on my first character and didn't even do them on my second character. Pointless potential sacrifice of time.

This. The most essential problem of trials.
Every time, esp if you've made it to 3+ trial and spent like 30-40 mins already, it feels absolutely disgusting when it just ends leaving you with nothing. You could run 3-4 maps and get some currency meanwhile. But here - just wasted time and nothing else.
