[2021] My honest opinion about trials as a new player who reached end game

So this is the second trial i have the chance to test now that nearly all my legendaries are done, all my aetherhearts are wisely used and all my cells are ready.

Like everybody else, i shamefully copied the best predator meta build for the max damages, and i was ready for war, it was time to forget about parasitic, learn the patterns, time to perfectly dodge everything, and to keep attacking with a near 100% uptime on the behemoth just like a pro but...

I discovered during the pangar trial that i couldn't just dance with the stacked modifiers beast in front of me, i also had to worry about the environment, yes i talk about these nasty thunder clouds, it kind of killed it for me, that was not what i expected and i'm guilty of maybe being too naïve or delusional.
So i did the trial, got 3 silvers and 2 golds and moved on, i didn't want to try to perfectly learn the fight and to beat my own time with a perfect dance anymore.
But i was still enthusiastic that maybe, the next trial will be a fight against a cheated beast and not against the environment, but the drask trial brought the nasty pylons.

So, i'm not criticizing this content nor how the devs envision it, it's not a rant, nor a "please change that", i'm just sharing my experience and maybe some other fellow redditors feel the same.

TLDR : Trials include some nasty environments modifiers i dislike as i just wanted to perfectly master the fight against a given behemoth with cheated stats
