    The Test of Will Barya is a special Sekhemas Coin used in the Trial of the Sekhemas in Path of Exile 2. This trial represents a high-risk, high-reward set of challenges that test your character’s combat skill, endurance, and strategic decisions under increasing difficulty. The Test of Will Barya specifically modifies the trial by increasing enemy damage and speed, effectively turning the difficulty up, but it also raises the quality and quantity of rewards, making it attractive for players prepared to accept the added challenge.

    What Is the Test of Will Barya?

    • It is one of several Sekhemas Coins, including Test of Cunning Barya, Djinn Barya, and Test of Time Barya, which serve as modifiers you place on the Relic Altar before starting the trial.

    • The Test of Will Barya increases enemy damage and attack speed, making every encounter more punishing.

    • In return, the trial grants better rewards—higher quality loot, more sacred water from fountains, and greater honour gains, which are crucial for survival and progression in the trial.

    • Using this coin demands careful preparation, strong builds, and strategic use of relic boons and room selections.

    High-Risk, High-Reward Nature

    • Increased Challenge: The Test of Will pushes enemies to hit harder and faster, which means you must optimize defensive layers such as resistances, life, armour, or evasion, as well as prioritize mobility and crowd control.

    • Honour Management: Honour is a unique resource in the Trial that acts as a buffer against death. The Test of Will Barya’s difficulty demands strict attention to retaining and restoring honour via fountains, shrines, and relics within the trial rooms.

    • Strategic Room Selection: Since Trial floors include different rooms with combat, traps, puzzles, or time challenges, selecting those that best match your build’s strengths is critical, especially under the increased pressure imposed by the Test of Will.

    • Relic Synergies: Relics granted by Balbala, and purchased with sacred water, play a key role in offsetting the harsh penalties. Choosing relics that mitigate damage, increase honour regeneration, or improve survivability can be the difference between success and failure.

    Tips for Surviving the Test of Will Trial

    1. Over-Level and Gear Up: Attempt the trial when your character level and gear are comfortably above the trial’s base level (usually around level 22 for early versions), to survive the damage spike.

    2. Maximise Movement and Defence: Use skill gems and gear with fast movement speed, knockback or crowd control. Boost your resistances and defences to handle the faster and stronger hits.

    3. Plan for Honour: Honour loss occurs with damage taken and cannot be replenished with flasks. Instead, use fountains and relic effects strategically to restore honour before critical encounters.

    4. Choose Boons Wisely: Invest in major and minor boons that mitigate incoming damage, grant revival chances, or reduce trap damage to mitigate failure points.

    5. Prioritize Safe Room Clears: Avoid risky trap rooms or time pressure challenges if you’re struggling. Focus on combat rooms where your build can shine.

    Rewards and Progression

    • Success in the trial grants valuable ascendancy points and unlocks classes, along with unique rewards such as enhanced relics or cosmetics.

    • Completing trials with modifiers like Test of Will Barya yields higher-quality loot, more sacred water for relic purchases, and additional honour bonuses for room completions.

    • The trial’s difficulty scales with the Djinn Barya coin you use, and combining the Test of Will with higher-tier Djinn Baryas means floors grow significantly more challenging—and rewarding.

    The Test of Will Barya transforms the Trial of the Sekhemas into a grueling test of your build’s durability and your mastery of trial mechanics. It offers amplified rewards for players willing to overcome its harsher enemies and faster pacing. Success depends on careful preparation, understanding honour mechanics, and tactical use of boons and relics, embodying a quintessential high-risk, high-reward challenge in Path of Exile 2’s endgame content.
