Great game but ascendancy trial needs rework

First of all i loved the Lab it was great game design and lovely voice acting i cannot understand the hate for it, it was way better than any of the recent league mechanics that are now forced on us to ascend.

Poe 2 is a great game it looks crispy and i like the slower gameplay, but getting the third ascendancy is way to hard.

I was right in front of the second boss room twice, once i failed ok happens, then the other time i had 1,5k honor. Second to last room i get cursed with enfeeble, then the last normal room is, who would have guessed, the timed trial for crystals. This is some toxic ai generated stuff. I have to run for my life and can't kill any mobs which do insane amounts of damage to my honor. I enter the boss room with 700 honor left, lol the two bosses attack way to fast and deal way to much damage to the honor count. No shot.

It is absolutely not acceptable to gate something that essential and basic behind a challenge like that. I wasted 90 minutes of my time at least for this and gained nothing.

A chase item like that chaos damage ring fine, but this is just madness. I do not want to interact with league mechnics like sanctum or ultimatum. The lab was fine.
