You’ll start the Trial of Sekhemas with max Honor.
Your character’s max Honor is determined by the total of your Life and Energy Shield stats.
Whenever you take damage from an enemy, your Honor will be reduced little by little.
If you hit zero Honor, your run in the Trial of Sekhemas ends, point blank.
This is decent news for ranged classes and disastrous for melee characters.
It’s also important to note that you take less Honor damage the closer you are to an enemy.
So you want to try and stay close to enemies, even if you are a ranged character.
Can you restore Honor in Path of Exile 2?
Fortunately, there are some ways to restore Honor, either by a percentage or in its entirety.
The first way you might restore Honor is by using specific Djinn Boons.
These are bonuses that can be applied to your character specifically during the Trial of Sekhemas.
Boons are classified as Minor or Major, depending on their effects.
Minor Boons are sold for less Sacred Water but have weaker effects compared to Major Boons.
In addition to applying boons, Honor can also be restored at fountains after a room’s completion.
If you approach the fountain and interact with it, you’ll restore a percentage of Honor.
The final way to gain back some Honor is by leveling up during the Trial of Sekhemas.
If you level up your character, your Life and Energy Shield stats are increased.
Luckily, there are Relics you could equip that boost Honor resistance.
Relics can boost your Honor resistance as well as raise your max Honor.
\When you first start the Trial of Sekhemas, you’ll only have one Relic to equip.
However, as you progress through more rooms, more Relics can be added.
Balbala also sells Relics you might purchase, which offer Honor boosts and bonuses.
