The Trialmaster is a formidable endgame boss in Path of Exile 2, encountered after completing the Trial of Chaos, a series of 10 challenging rounds found in high-level Inscribed Ultimatums. To access the Trialmaster fight, you need the three Fate fragments: Cowardly Fate, Deadly Fate, and Victorious Fate—each dropped by one of the three unique bosses in the 10th Round of the Trial of Chaos. Cowardly Fate is specifically dropped by Uxmal, The Beastlord.

How to Use Cowardly Fate to Face the Trialmaster:
Collect the Three Fate Fragments
Complete the 10th round of the Trial of Chaos multiple times if necessary, as each run rewards one of the three Fate fragments at random from its unique boss. Alternatively, you can trade or purchase the fragments from other players or the Currency Exchange once unlocked in Cruel difficulty.

Unlock the Trialmaster Door
Once you have all three Fate fragments—Cowardly Fate included—go to the Trialmaster's door located in the Trial of Chaos area. Interact with the door, and place each Fate fragment into its respective slot. This unlocks the arena for the Trialmaster boss fight.

Prepare for the Battle
The Trialmaster is a tough boss with around 10-11 million life and mixed physical and elemental attacks. Bolster your defenses: aim for capped resistances, solid life or energy shield pools, and consider stun immunity flasks or charms to mitigate crowd control effects.

Understand Trialmaster Mechanics
The Trialmaster’s key moves include:
Branching Sunder (overhead spear slam causing ground damage zones)
Blood Orb volleys (elemental projectiles causing chaos damage and armor break)
Physical swings and melee attacks
Trialmaster’s Tether (spawns a heart that slows and tethers players)
Time stop mechanics with spear slam or projectile volleys
Learning attack telegraphs and safe zones is vital. Keep moving to avoid area damage and interrupt his combo windows.

Combat Strategy
Use a balance of mobility, defense, and damage output. Dodge large attacks and focus on sustained DPS to wear down his large life pool. Flasks, skill gems, and movement skills should be optimized to avoid taking unnecessary damage.

Victory Rewards
Defeating the Trialmaster grants rare and unique loot, including strong helm uniques and corrupted inscribed ultimatums that enhance future runs’ rewards. You also unlock advanced ascendancy points, boosting your character’s power and specialization.

Cowardly Fate is thus a key fragment that enables you to enter this final and punishing trial. Efficient farming of Trials of Chaos, gathering all Fate fragments, and mastering the Trialmaster’s mechanics are essential steps for any high-level exile aiming to reach new heights of Path of Exile 2 endgame play. Patience, skill, and preparation will see you prevail against this challenging boss.
