I can’t bring myself to play trials due to severe depression and anxiety. Like I need any more disappointment in several categories. It’s a shame, but my mental health comes first. Better to never play a single trials game when it’s simply not healthy.

  • I just got someone to carry me for the 20 round wins and left. I really wish we could go back to before the rework because you were 100% guaranteed 1 item per week, now? Nothing. It’s a complete waste of time now. It sucks 😞

  • Hopefully this helps you like it did me where tirlas is evolved. So like you I have sever depression and anxiety. And playing trials is like a trigger to go directly to that low place. What I started to do is play trials but not intending to win just simply play with the intent to learn how to get better. I know what seems counterproductive but look at it like this. Playing to learn to improve allows you to shows you how to do just that and inadvertently grants you progress every so often. They kinda go both in had and whilst doing that you will get engrams for gear granted not adept but its free stuff. Hope this helps as I know this isn't for everyone.

    If only it were that simple. While I wish I could care not about winning, but I really want adept weapons. But, I have 0 confidence in my skills, and I’m going to be honest. My luck in this game is so pathetically bad, getting even close to a good adept weapon roll, is literally nonrealistic. To give you one example, it took me over I think… 70+ gm nightfall runs to get a single comedian with subsistence/trench barrel. And I’ve gone through another 60+ with the hothead, and failed to get the desired roll. I’m simply bad luck. Even trying for non adept rolls would end up being terribly vexing to my emotions considering the probability being against me and the overall difficulty of trials worsening things further. It’s simply not healthy for me to dwell on consistent failure.
