Cavern of Transcendence Trial 7/14/09 @ 7:30PM EST
Tip to help speed it along: If someone on the team has the "TP to mission door" power, they can get to the mission door ASAP and then hopefully they also have recall or team TP.
I've already forgotten about most of you
I will try my absolute best to be here for this! I am extremely interested in fighting the magma bosses for the badge (i've been hunting outside that place for so long it hurts). So even when the TF is over, expect me to stay behind and kick hot magma!

I wouldn't mind tagging along for this. I'll be on my Kat/WP scrapper, Negacon.
Actions speak louder than Vets.
NiVra, we waited for ya, but I guess you got stuck at work, starting now. If it goes well, I'll try to do it again.

Failure. Group on the ramp was aggro'd before we all got there = wipe. Regrouped, the tank assembled us right on Koago's head = wipe. Regrouping and "Mission Failed" popped up, guess Wincott got killed. 2 people quit, over.

Being a total loser, I am replying to myself yet again...
I'm hoping to give this another try on Saturday 7/18 at around 9:00PM-ish EST. Stop by if you are interested.
This time I'll be stocked with a tray full of inspirations for any accidental aggro.

Thanks for coming tonight Nivra. And Zamuel. And someone else who's global I can't recall Also had my bud, my brother and one of his friends along too. It went much smoother than last attempt, once we all got logged in after a couple of crashes.
Once we started, it only took about 25 minutes to complete - inicluding the defeat of all of the Magmite bosses for badge credit. Not only did I get the 7 merits and the influence along the way, but I also got a level 30 Basilisk's Gaze triple recipe for mission complete that I had been planning on searching for for one of my upcoming alts! Extra win for me!
Thanks again, and I hope to run a few more of these in the future for the quick merits.

Nice haul 
I enjoyed it, and needed that badge, so thank you
I recently created a "second build" on my blaster that includes Recall, and Superspeed with a Stealth IO in it by level 14. I did this with the thought of stealthing the Cavern Trial. I'd like to try it and see how well it works. I also have "Assemble the Team" Vet power to collect everyone in the Troll Caves at the cavern door.
If all goes well at work today, I'd like to give this a run at 7:30PM tonight. I'll be near Karsis at this time with "Snuph" forming the team. If I'm not at Karsis by 7:35PM, I won't be making it. I may be able to get my brother to come along, so that leaves 6 maybe 7 spots that need to be filled since it's a full 8 person team to complete.
If it works as I hope, it should take about 20 minutes to complete, with a reward of 7 merits, unless it's been nerfed recently. Also awards the "Transcendant" badge.
The plan is:
I'll stealth through the troll tunnels to the cavern entrance and Assemble the Team. Once inside, I'll stealth and recall everyone to an obelisk. Click together, up the ramp and stomp Koago and friends, claim 7 merits and be on our separate ways.
Anyone interested?
