Sekhemas & chaos trials

I don't find it difficult but seriously the time it takes to run though all the rooms and 4 bosses at level 80 to be rewarded with 100 boxes you cannot open, which contain garbage that you wouldn't pick up anyway?

A "chance" of a time-lost chest is ridiculous beyond reason after 30-45 mins plus slog rushing as fast as possible. They suck as an ascendency mechanic AND as a rewarding experience in any context. I have 2 stash tabs of these orange things I don't know what to do with.

1 fully juiced ANY tier map above 10 is generally going to net you more currency with a bit of IIR. A t16 map fully jacked at L82 is going to take you 5 mins on a tunnel map or 2 mins on an open map. Way more currency, looking at level 20 spirit gems at 5 div each and good bases.

I don't mind the chaos trials gameplay wise but the rewards are a little better i.e. 3 cores of randomness per run. Outside of core farming these are hit and miss due to the sometimes diabolical debuff choices. Still the trial master = same BS as sekhemas 30 room slog. Ooof.

I mean make them FUN or make it REWARDING, this is a game not a minimum wage job. Generic game progression ISN'T a reward for all that ^^^ noise. I mean I have 6k hours in poe 1 the mechanics are familiar but I cannot for the life of me figure out why GGG made by far the most hated mechanics from all of POE 1 and mushed them up into an even more convoluted mess. Even worse they made it MANDATORY for all new players to POE?

An isometric real time game is extremely bad for "puzzle" mode with traps etc. Yeah rolling is ok but it isn't dark souls, you point and click.....or whatever console players do.

Chaos trials are fun and cheap way to level(at least for me as chrono) and also good rewards if you are doing 10 trials, but sekhemas seriously bad rewards even if you get through first three sets of maps, 4th is extremely hard and haven't killed boss, yet. I prefer ultimatums to level as maps usually limit your dodge area and you can get stuck and die.

It's a shit format to do the first time round. Making you do it 3 times in a row is an absolute waste of time.

I'm planning on keeping my build at 4 ascendancy points. What a stupid mechanic
