Why Do I need to re-run Trials to Respect for Ascendancy?

I can see paying gold to the black robe guy.... but requiring players to re-run trials?

Why not just have a button for it? (with gold fees)..

This is frustrating... !!!

I completely agree and I want to push it further.
Why do we even need to farm gold? It feels like a total waste of time.
Do you really think I can’t farm that gold? I’ve already leveled my character.

Also, why do we level up every league?
Just give us a level 65 character, add some league objectives, and reward us with set items so we can finish quickly.

And please, just remove item drops.
Add a vendor where we can choose the item stats ourselves.
