Quitting
|
Sehkemas and the other trial are way too hard for the lasts points. Algo the XP logs in lvl 78 are too harsh. The builds are unbalaced and the game isnt friendly for coop mode. After about 300 hour I'm quitting without being abre to get those points. It's annoying the unbalanced curve in the endgame.

" i dont want to sound like one of those "git gud" people, but, there are legitmately HUNDREDS of build guides, and most if not all, with a 20-30ex budget, will get you through the trials with a bit of skill. Ive SSF put 3 characters through, fully gearing each from scratch(so not using gear from 1 character to juice the next) and have had no issues clearing them. Especially after 300 hour? 2 of my SSF where end game lvl 90 before 300h, so not to be mean, but this is 100% a you issue, not a game issue, so ill give you some tips. Recheck your build, go though maxroll versions and tweak what you need to tweak. Watch some YT guides on how to efficently maniuplate the trade searches to find decent gear cheap(5ex or so), you'd be surprised. Avoid trial of Chaos, focus on Sekehemas, its more forgiving, even if it takes longer. For Trial of Sekehemas, , 75% honour resistance is the max, get that, and try stack Maximum Honour on top. With any extra space, get relics with "merchant has more options". When doing the run, avoid "lose all sacred water at the end" and try get as much sacred water without debuffing yourself as possible. Every floor completion, buy from the merchant. Dodge roll through traps, you have invincibility frames, and if done correctly, you can take zero damage. Avoid hourglass rooms unless you have really good large scale clear, they are notorious for little chip damage on your honour. Dont go for keys on your ascendacy run, focus on boons, sacred water, and not getting afflicted as myuch as possible. Run the lowest level djinn you can, 65 for 3rd ascend, 75 for 4th. With the final boss, when he stands in the middle and does his lightning, focus on just avoiding it, dont try DPS him down becausde you'll die without a good build. Aside from that, just chekc your build, honestly being 300h in and not having a single 4th ascend is wild, thats only 200h behind me, i hope some of the above helps. |

Good for you. I 100% understand. I just ran a whole floor with (Cannot regenerate Honor) until next boss. Ran the whole floor ended with 90% honor ... Last rooms before boss for level .. Lose all sacred water .. Merchant offers one choice. 25% reduced run speed. When i zoned in ... i was already so pissed off I told the NPC to shut the ^%$%%^ up as she said some blah blah another .. who cares. all the way downhill from there until that end ... a total waste of my time. this whole game is nothing but a total waste of time, hidden behind "just go buy it" |

" Having run well over 60-70 sekehemas on SSF, ive only failed 2 in that time, 1 to bad luck(you have no energy shield on a CI monk) and 1 because i was cockey and thought i could run the timelost diamond relic, i could not(i have since done it, but yeah.) With the amount of resources out there, you're just wrong. You can literally put together a 5-8m DPS build for 50ex if you know what youre doing on the trade site, hell, i watched a video from a YTber literally spend 10ex and kill xesht, stop blaming the game because you dont want to research or dont understand certain aspect, educate yourself, and try again. |

" Research what and what for? There is nothing in game's current state to research in terms of "how more fun can I have and keep challenge", cuz everything is just tedious, unfun, scarce and is there to waste ur time. Challenge doesn't exist. Nothing to master, 1-2 runs and u're familair with most tricks devs put in game to waste a bit more of ur time. Skill issue, 0 research? I can beat sekhema with no relics/undergeared etc. But it's just not fun either way. Running sekhema - waste of time if u're not RMTer or a regular gambler. Trying to beat sekhema - same gambling, cuz there is no skill or RESEARCH needed to beat it. Relics? Ok, what's a point if their drop is random and doesn't require to beat any challenge to prepare for next challenge? 0 point, that's how it looks and feels. Just a waste of time so game can keep u busy for a bit longer. 0 challenge, 0 rewards, 0 fun, 100% RNG for both skilled and unskilled players. The only part that matter is gear/relics, so even lil kid can complete eventually. Everything happens eventually, but who cares? Last edited by gotcha8itch#2885 on Feb 17, 2025, 11:32:26 PM

" Legitmately, what the actual F*** are you on about? The Original post said he played 300 hours and never got his 3rd and 4th ascendency, and you went on some rant about nothing? |
|
" And you? 300 hrs, 78 lvl, skipped sekhema to play w/o few points in ascendancy, probably, mapping w/o them. What's ur take then? That he was playing the wrong way or was stuck on sekhemas for some dozens of hours to lvlup till 78 or what, so he skipped "do ur reasearch" part or what? Dude, stop this bs pls. The actual meaning behind him being able to reach 78 lvl and giving 0 duck on that trial says a lot and feels pretty relatable to me. Who's ranting? |

I just uninstalled it.
It can stay that way until patch notes that say trials are gone. it had fun points. It isn't worth buying. It is a good free to play if you don't buy mtx. I would recommend as an in between game when you are waiting for something else. I would never as a seasonal game. My honest sentiment from playing as much as i have is . Why bother, i quit before reaching my goal. Nothing in the game is worth doing. It is in game pay to win, i think the game is better suited for amazon shoppers and day traders, im more an ARPG guy , I like building characters and loot. Seeing as GGG is keen on gatekeeping their pre release testing phase. I have lost confidence because of their lack of common sense. Gl Bye. Last edited by Jitter912#4278 on Feb 18, 2025, 12:00:04 AM

I've been running maps after work since the release, playing as a Chronomancer with four Ascendancy points, wielding a quarterstaff, and using gear I purchased with currency orbs.
No pressure, no theatrics—just pure gameplay. I'm almost level 92 now. However, the poor optimization for multicore CPUs is more time-consuming than the game itself—a nightmare of a graphics engine. I avoid Sekhemas and similar content; it's boring, too hard, or just annoying. In the evenings, I prefer to clear 1.5 screens with a single hit and maybe find some orbs along the way. |

" Before i even try to dissect what you said(because im assuming english isnt your first language) are you aware that the original post of mine you quoted wasnt about OP's post but a reply to another reply? Because my post to OP was just advice on how to actually get past the trials for ascend, but you seem to be mixing this up |
