[GAMEBREAKING-BUG] Trial of Sekhemas (Crashing/Coop-Difficulty)

Since the last patch the game is way more buggy than ever. I get Crashes all of a sudden (never had that before) - MAPS and Portals in MP are buggy etc.


But something really awful that caught me off guard:

- crashing while in the treasure room after the runs in the Trials actually lock you out from going in the treasure rooms again
- and there also has to be some issue since i crashed twice in the treasure room and thats actually really bad since those Trials take rather long

If you crash while in Trials Treasure room you should never loose access to that room.


Also for some reason i often seem to lack the option to transfer fountain water into keys.

And last but not least what is really frustrating for no reason:
Beeing able to even have excess keys is awful - more often than not i have keys at the end of the trials i cant even use. I cant even use the keys on lower chests or use multiple on better chests. So if you end up with 6 silver keys and have bad luck you cant even use most of them ...

And to be honest - the end-rewards of trials are in absolutely no relation to the ammount of work to even get there.


Multiplayer:
Not sure whats wrong with MP - but in MP its even worse - did a low level trial with another person - i think level 72.

Both people can progress trough the trials alone - same trial level. Me worse than the other guy which was over level 90.

But all of a sudden it got insanely hard - i got rooms i never saw before even with extra traps (never had those portal maps in huge with suddenly lots of traps and paths). Lots of really bad Debuffs and rare mobs with AOE in small rooms.


So is there something wrong with the game? I mean shouldnt 1 Level 85+ and one level 90+ that usually can do level 70 and level 80 alone be able to do a level 72 trial in coop without huge problems?

My lvl 85 char can even run T13+ maps and does more than enough dmg.

And may i add - the loot was utter garbage yet it was insanely difficult.

To be honest - i now understand other ppl. It simply is too difficult.


Which by itself wouldnt be a problem - but the compination of:
+long
+difficulty
+End of Trial Loot=underhwelming
+death=get nothing
+Crash in Treasure room = goodbye rewards
+utterly random with Insane Debuffs/Buffs


is simply too much for it to be fun. Especially since at the end you realize that you can tuse half of your keys and that the loot is utter garbage ...
The only loot that was a little bit better was while doing the trial maps - but even that was way worse compared to what i would get when i run higher level maps that i can do with way less effort and difficulty.


Either make it harder but shorter. Or add some "savepoints" midway etc. Or maybe some ways to unbrick a run in some way.

Honestly i think its awful gamedesign when random parameters can ruin your run in a gameplaymode that actually requires a lot of time investment and that doesnt even have that great rewards.


The trials have so many absolutely insane Debuffs that its not really fun - some are so bad no one would pick them ever - but sometimes you still don thave a choice - they need to be nerfed especially if they stay from the first map to the last.


Just imagine getting foced to pick a -no shield debuff as a shield class - or no evasion etc.



TLDR:
- Risk and Reward in Trials are out of balance
- MP Difficulty is buggy or broken
- even non player fault issues (crashes) punish the player

No one else even played Trials in Coop?

Why is it even a thing that crashing throws you out of the treasure room?

Cuz no point to do this in coop. You can invite player at last boss if you both need it, but double the number of mistakes on traps cuz you wanna just coop here make no sense.

Coop in general is way mor fun for many. Also the problem wasnt "normal difficulty" but "weird difficulty".


If i can just farm most Endgame things alone i doubt i will play this game for long.

Also the crashing was me playing alone - nothing more fun doing a full run and finish it just to crash in the treasure room ...
