The Test of Cunning Barya is a special Sekhemas Coin in Path of Exile 2 that players use to activate the challenging Test of Cunning within the Trial of the Sekhemas. Placing this coin on the Relic Altar at the trial's start modifies the trial run, introducing unique and difficult mechanics that significantly increase the challenge.
Key features of the Test of Cunning Barya include:
Complex Traps and Puzzle Mechanics: The trial arena is filled with various traps such as fire scars, spike traps, and pressure plates, some of which must be triggered to progress, while others deal damage or impose other negative effects. Navigating these requires careful observation, timing, and agility.
Movement Hindrances: Areas like quicksand slow player movement, making evasion and positioning more difficult, increasing pressure during combat encounters.
Aggressive and Difficult Enemies: The trial spawns tough enemies including multiple types of sand worms with leap or burrow attacks, adding layers of threat that demand quick reactions and strong defenses.
Increased Afflictions and Hazard Complexity: Players face combinations of hazards and status effects that complicate encounters beyond those seen in other trials, requiring builds optimized for speed, evasion, and survivability.
Final Boss—Ashar the Sand Mother: The trial concludes with a challenging boss fight against Ashar, whose attack patterns demand patience and mobility. Longer fights become riskier as Ashar gains buffs from prolonged combat.
Rewards: Success in the Test of Cunning Barya grants ascendancy skill points, unique rewards, and valuable relic drops useful for progression and crafting.
The Test of Cunning Barya defines the conditions of the Trial of the Sekhemas run by layering in traps, movement restrictions, challenging enemies, and a demanding boss, creating a trial focused on both player skill and strategic preparation. It’s recommended to enter this trial when well-prepared with mobility enhancements, optimal gear, and relic setups to improve survivability and efficiency.
This coin is earned by defeating Balbala the Traitor in Act 2, and using it strategically allows players to access high-end rewards that reward mastery and planning in Path of Exile 2’s endgame content.
