Trial of the Sekhemas

• Unique Rewards: Jewels
• Pinnacle Boss: Zaroth, the Eternal

The trials we talked about earlier have much more content when you get to the endgame too.

Just like the other endgame systems, they also have progression mechanics, unique rewards and player power that can only be gained from them. As you get higher level coins for the Trial of the Sekhemas, you'll unlock more floors to explore.

Each floor has its own challenging rooms and a floor boss that you will need to kill.

There are four floors in total, leading to another pinnacle boss at the end of the last floor, which can only be accessed at endgame.

Jewels

The Trial of the Sekhemas is where you will find jewels which you can socket into your tree. These are like passives that you can craft with your currency items.

They can be really powerful as they allow you to stack modifiers that may not easily be accessible on the tree normally.

This jewel gives lightning damage and shock chance, for example. There are quite a few jewel sockets on the tree, so it's possible to gain a lot of power here.

There are also other types of jewels that don't provide any bonuses themselves, but affect other passives surrounding them.

This jewel increases the effect of small nodes in radius by 25%. With careful placement in the tree, you could get a significant amount of power from it.

There are also unique jewels available with very interesting effects, but you'll have to find those for yourself. In order to push further into the trial and uncover the secrets of the Maraketh, you will want to take advantage of its progression system.

Relics

Relics are items that can be placed on the relic altar as you start the trial.

They give special bonuses that affects the trial, making it easier and increasing its rewards.

Of course, you can craft these with your currency items too, making them even stronger.

If you can complete the entire trial overcoming all four floors, the final boss will reward you with one of many unique relics.

These relics will be consumed when used on the next run, but can reward you with unique and powerful items. For example, this is The Last Flame. If you use it, you will only have one honor for the entire trial, so you will need to do a completely hitless run.
