I want to see PoE devs beating trial of chaos...

I haven't had any problems with the difficulty level so far.
In most cases, all it took was a little improvement and "Git Gud".
Everything was fine until trial of chaos.
This shit isn't even close to beign balanced.
Modificators you get on this small maps are death sentence, some of them are survivable but most just one shot you or make you stun for ages.
Mobs just stuck you in place and you cannot even avoid them because there are no spells for escape. They can drag you halfway across the map. Most of them have AOE attacks and bosses are like that too. I just want to see one of the devs beating this especialy on meele class because when they showed it in their video the mobs were much scarcer and less modified and curses were off.
This is just the ranting of an angry gamer.
It's a shame that further ascension progression is locked behind it, I'll have to play through the game without it.
Besides thank you for amazing game <3 Need a little improvement though.

Intended or not, the first ultimatum ascendancy trial is an extreme optional challenge if you decide to do it as soon as it unlocks. Instead, I'd recommend you wait to around 45-50.

Personally, I like that it becomes available early, so if you are steamrolling the campaign with a OP build or an alt with "twink gear", it can serve as an diffcult optional encounter in an otherwise faceroll playthrough.

I agree with your sentiment, but I would modifiy the feedback to say that it could be available early, but should not be presented as mandatory. The player should be very aware that it is optional to do it right away, or perhaps the player has to actively go out of their way to find it early.
