Remove Ascendancy Skill Points from Trials
|
I absolutely detest the content and do not want to engage with it at all. However, you're forced to do it to unlock and progress a critical part of your build. I honestly decided I'd rather not play than slog through even longer versions of the trials two or three more times for all of the ascendancy points in their current form.
I enjoy a good challenge - Elden Ring was my GOTY and I have zero complaints about the overall difficulty of POE 2. But the risk/reward for the trials are terrible. You can waste a lot of time and walk away with garbage, and all the while you're dependent on RNG to determine whether you're going to have just a bad time or a terrible time. Have the trials drop lots of good loot, but please don't lock core skills behind completing them. I won't be playing again until there's a major change regarding ascendancies or the all-or-nothing, RNG misery nature of the trials. I had a great time and got my money's worth for the campaign, but if you're wondering why people are bouncing off you can add +1 to the "Trials are terrible" column. Thanks.

NO
Step 1 is to self reflect.

I second this post. No mechanic that's meant to progress my build should be hidden behind these dumbass trials.Starting all over again when I die to something stupid bc I got shit modifiers before entering every door is irritating.

" Yeah trails aren't going away, just accept that or move on. They'll add different trials down the road so you don't have only the 2 to pick from but having to do a trial to get the ascendancy points will always be a thing in POE. |

While I managed to get all 4 done in Trial of Sekhemas, they should be less punishing, especially the last boss with that clock mechanic. While the boss is not that hard, having instant death on a mechanic that has nothing to do with this kind of game is stupid, at least they should provide a debuff instead of killing your character.
Otherwise, once the honor resistance is capped and good relics are added (such as extra 2 merchant stuff, move speed, dodge roll distance) the trials become a walk in the park for first 3 floors. Last edited by Paizan#2478 on Jan 7, 2025, 3:46:38 AM
