POE 2 - 'second' Ascendancy trials

I'm sure you've heard this one a lot, and i agree with all of them about ascendancy being too difficult.

But the second ascendancy of sanctum and ultimatum?

I'll be blunt, why is it so incredibly hard, long and tedious?
3 floors of sanctum. I'm ranged, so 'maybe' i can eventualy do it by doing it enough, which i won't, cause god know i don't want to wasted 10 hour on something so incredibly frustrating.

But for the melee, warrior and monk? How are they supposed to be the sanctum?

And for ultimatum, just 4 rooms was so hard, that people need to be 10 to 15 level OVER the recommanded level, just to be it.

7 or 10 rooms is downright impossible.

While the first ascendancy of sanctum and ultimatum just need to be easier, the second round need a completely overhaul.

Agree, they are just way too frustraiting.

You go through the trial of strength, which is already way to long. Now, you fail at the trial of will, because of an escape trial that generates thin areas in which no fire balls are moving around, but since you have minions you can't stand in these areas, because the minions are still catching the balls and incenarate you. One hour lost for nothing for knowing that you have to send your minions away first.
We should at least have a check point at the end of the trial of strength.

We don't even have any progress, because you need to start from the beginning. This is not some sort of escape game. This is the complete wrong sort of challenging. Make every boss in the gamer harder. That is fine, because you can just try again, but this...
Even worse the new keys seem to depend on your current level, so, if you tried and failed you get punished even more.

This ascension stuff alone makes the game way worse than it could be.

agree

Agreed, especially when it bugs out and you're stuck in a room with no exit :)

For melee, its a skill issue if they having trouble.

Barely even had to try on melee. Even let the boss hit me a few times didnt even get to half resolve.

Sanctum felt good, but a bit too long, Ultimatum feels terrible.

Like the one above me mentionned, this was only the firt trial.

For the 3rd ascendancy, you need to do 3 floors, all of them of much higher difficulty, with faster/stronger monster and more difficult trap.

Oof, the guy thinking the one floor trial is anything like the 3 floor sanctum

The worse enemy of acendency trials is dc'ing.

They are so stupidly long and cannot be saved. I was trying trial 6 of 7 for my third acendency and it just dc'ed losing all progress. Very difficult and time consuming to get there just to dc like a clown.
