Honour penalty too high in trials for 5,6,7,8 ascendancy points

Hi,
It seemed that in the recent patch honour penalties were brought down, but i am finding that if i get hit in the trial of the cunning, i'm losing sometimes almost 400 honour. This feels way too punitive. Please adjust! It takes 30 minutes to reach this part of the trial, then to get to final boss and be hit twice and lose is BRUTAL!!!!!!
Game is great, very difficult, but this feels like too much, especially for something as crucial to overall play as ascendancy.
