PATH of EXILE 2: Ascendancy Explained + Trial of the Sekhema First Look - Hands-on Gameplay

At the GGG Studios I had hands on time with Path of Exile 2 - on a Mercenary I entered the Trial of the Sekhemas to claim my Ascendancy! -- Thanks to Magic: the Gathering Foundations for sponsoring this video! -- Perhaps even more importantly I grilled Jonathan and the team about how the “choose which Trial to Ascend and choose where to get your points“ system ACTUALLY works as it’s pretty confusing... This is my beginner’s guide to getting your Ascendancy class, a first look at floor 1 of the Trial of the Sekhemas and how the Ascendancy Trial system works! DISCLOSURES Grinding Gear Games paid for my flights to New Zealand to host the live Q&A - I filmed this gameplay while I was there. Magic: the Gathering is an ongoing sponsor of my channel and I appreciate their support - throwing a quick midroll in videos like this lets me spend days editing and filming higher quality vids like this without worrying about finances.
