The Real of Trials (AKA Trials or Greater Rift Trial or Grift Trial) is a mini-game feature that players can use to earn higher level [[Greater Rift Keystones]], enabling them to start off in higher level [[Greater Rifts]], rather than starting at a level 1 Grift and working their way up through completing multiple Grifts. The wave-clearing in a Realm of Trials was made faster late in teh Patch 2.1 PTR, due to player complaints that the trials were taking too long.

The Realm of Trials is a small, dark, shadowy, circular map with a couple of health pools. Players can not leave it except by returning to town. While in the Realm players undergo a Trial as waves of monsters appear. Each wave spawns about 40 enemies with a timer running; if players kill all the monsters in the wave before the timer expires another wave spawns, with slightly harder (more hit points and higher damage) enemies. This process continues until players are unable to finish a wave within the time limit, at which point the Trial is over and no more waves will spawn.

Players then return to town and speak to Orek, who will reward them with a Greater Rift Keystone that corresponds to the highest level wave they were able to complete in the Trial. The difficulty of the waves roughly corresponds to the difficulty level of the Greater Rift, but the GRK reward is scaled down in about a 3:2 ratio. E.g. a player who completed 30 waves would get a level 20 GRK. This is so players don't enter a Greater Rift level that's too hard for them to complete right from the start.[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/realm-trials-greater-rift-levels]

Realm of Trials were added in [[Patch 2.1]], after extensive testing on the [[PTR]].

+The '''Realm of Trials''' (AKA Trials or RoT or Greater Rift Trial or Grift Trial) is a mini-game feature that players must use to earn a [[Greater Rift Keystone]]. Finishing more waves in the Realm of Trials will cause Orek to reward the player with a higher level Greater Rift key, enabling them to start off in that level of [[Greater Rift]].  The Realm of Trials is a closed area, and players can not leave the area during the combat, or respec skills/change equipment. The Realm of Trials ends when the player does not kill all the enemies in a wave before the timer runs out. At that point the Realm of Trials is over and a blue portal will appear to let players return to town.
-The Realm of Trials area is a small, dark, shadowy, circular, arena-style map with a couple of health pools around the outside. Once there, players undergo a Trial as waves of monsters appear. Each wave spawns about 40 enemies and starts a 20 second timer. If players kill all the monsters in the wave before the timer expires, another wave spawns with slightly harder (more hit points and higher damage) enemies.  (Changes during the PTR caused waves to jump more than 1 rank if players cleared them very quickly.) This process continues until players are unable to finish a wave within the time limit.
+The Greater Rift Key awarded corresponds directly to the highest level Wave cleared in the Realm of Trials. The wave to RGK level is roughly a 1-to-1 ratio, but GRKs are a few levels lower than the wave, and there's some randomness to prevent players from scoring precisely the level of GRK they are seeking. For instance, finishing Wave 20 will generally yield a GRK in the level 15-18 range.
