Ascendancy Trials in POE2 make the game completely unbearable and unfun.

Trials are seriously about to have me quit all together, I have a lvl 85 Ranger and when I finished the second floor the damn game bugged and did not give me any points, on top of that I am unable to finish the third floor to get my ascendancy points.

I think I am finished for a while.

Same issue. I found a div and ended up buying the trials. Most people are just buying it. I can get1 1st two but 3rd and 4th are awful.

I would rather go to work than playing trials.

Read a couple pages of posts until I hit this- sums it up perfectly. Its a bit relative to your job, I like my job, so I'll add- and you hate your job. lol

Yeah, haven't played in 10 days, was clearing T15 with some challenge and saw that I still had only 2/4 ascendency. Got there, got fucked by rng, got no loot for a good 30 minutes of pure anguish and despair.

Yeah, 1 div carry is the way

Man just found out about this thread wondering if I was the only mushroom thinking trials were streamer material. Good to know most of us all share the same opinion about these broken trials.

Which is only possible, because we have a few builds completely outperforming everything else entirely by unmeasurable difference.

Sigh.

Devs answers to everything these days is just to fucking nerf it all. Sure do miss feeling powerful in these games. I guess its obvious i dont play the meta. Guess i better git gud and get onboard.

How many times do I need to passthrough rooms like this multiple times to hit damn levers. Its absolute Dogshit. 4 weeks in still no hope of getting my 3rd ascendancy points.. I got more chance of kicking my TV through my front window at this rate.

259 replies and most of them seem to be saying the same thing: Trials are terrible, way too much BS and way too long, especially 3rd and 4th

Agree withthe way too long part. If you continued 3rd adn 4th from the point you ended the previous one.. it would be bearable.

I just save a minimum level baraya or ultimatum and do it 10-15 levels overleveled. Also 4th Sekhemas trial is simply an out of season April Fools joke and I don't even consider running it ever. I cannot imagine anything more tedious in my life that running that thing like what 4 times or something just to get a chance at a jewel? Ramblings of the mentally insane. As far as I'm concerned the time-lost jewels have not yet been implemented in the game and that's a shame.

I think both trials just need tweaks so that they can be a lot less annoying.

Having to farm for the tokens is really not a big deal. If you do maps regularly you'll get tokens all of the time.

There IS one issue though and it is that trials in general are way overtuned for their level. So you are doing level 65 maps consistently, you are still a long ways to go before you can actually do level 65 ascendancies. I've been thinking of farming a level 60 campaign map.

So that's the first thing that needs to happen: The difficulty of a level X ascendancy run should be slightly harder than a level X map. Since that's where the tokens drop.

As for other changes. If they removed Gauntlet, would anyone really miss it? I highly doubt it. And this makes the challenge so damn annoying. I'd say that's the real problem. Fewer people would have a problem with having to repeat these challenges if they weren't annoying as hell to play. As for the Temple of Chaos. It's performance is completely terrible and makes the whole experience unpleasant. And that's before the amount of stacked curses starts getting insane. The bosses are also just a misery to play against. So really, fix the performance, nerf the bosses and make new curses appear every second room instead of every single room.
