Key Rewards for Completing the Test of Cunning Barya

Sekhemas Coins & Relics: Players receive unique Sekhemas Coins upon completion that can be used in further trials to modify challenges or enhance rewards. Relics collected during the trial improve your build’s power and provide passive bonuses both in the trial and out in the world.

Honour and Sacred Water: Completing rooms within the trial restores or grants Honour, a resource crucial for survival in the trial, as well as Sacred Water that can be spent on merchants and upgrades.

Keys and Treasure Caches: Successful runs grant bronze, silver, and gold keys that open treasure chests within the trial, which contain currency items, crafting materials, and powerful gear that accelerate player progression.

Ascendancy Points: Clearing the Trial of Sekhemas, of which Test of Cunning Barya is a part, unlocks Ascendancy passive skill points, allowing players to specialize their character in powerful subclasses.

Upgraded Boons and Shrines: Players gain access to various major and minor Boons at shrines—enhancements such as damage reduction, trap immunity, or increased movement speed—that improve survivability and combat effectiveness throughout the trial.

Trial-specific Gear and Currency: The trial offers access to loot drops including high-quality jewels, rare currency, and gear that are either exclusive to or more commonly found within the Trial of Sekhemas, aiding in faster character gearing.

Experience and Challenge: Beyond tangible rewards, the trial’s stiff challenges provide vital gameplay experience valuable for mastering character mechanics, trial navigation, and strategic combat.

Overcoming the Test of Cunning Barya not only advances players deeper into the Trial of the Sekhemas but also yields a rich haul of Ascendancy progression, crafting materials, unique relics, and gameplay-enhancing Boons. These rewards combine to better equip characters for the escalating challenges of Path of Exile 2’s endgame content, making the trial both a test of skill and a critical pathway to character empowerment.
