Path of Exile 2 Honor System Explained

All ye Path of Exile 2 fans, we bring good news. Path of Exile 2 introduces the Honor System—this is a very special feature that is a huge part of the Trial of Sekhemas. This is another interesting angle; it makes the trial harder by adding another health bar that decides how long you can survive.
When you start the Trial of Sekhemas, you will see your Honor bar just at the bottom of your screen. It begins at full, based on your total Life and Energy Shield. Every time you get hit, your Honor goes down. If it drops to zero, your trial ends right away. So basically, taking care of your Honor is just as important as watching your health.
Honor doesn’t heal on its own like HP. To get it back, you need special Djinn Boons, fountains that sometimes show up after rooms or by leveling up. Balbala, a merchant in the game, sells Boons and Relics that can help you restore Honor or take less damage. Also, staying closer to enemies makes you lose less Honor when hit, which adds a bit of risk and reward to the fight.
To survive better, players can use Relics that increase Honor resistance and max Honor. Melee characters need to dodge well since they take more hits, while ranged characters should keep a good distance and protect their Honor.
