Lusca, which is the only 'normal' GM in CoH which requires at least 2 teams to take down, with little to no debt.

Made it the other night with 6 ppl and only 1 death
Like you said 'You need good handlers'
Hope this will give better results than the test in the Hive

I'm assuming your team consisted of experienced players - and that they'd all taken Lusca on at least once ? I was referring more to the average team, involving mostly new players to the th GM, at least.
lusca aint so hard if you know what you're doing... get a good tank, a personal healer and preferrable only blasters/defenders/controllers as filler. Sorry scrappers, that tentacle smash can hit you hard so you need a second healer (or just 1 GOOD healer) to focus healing the other melee classes.
PS. sorry in advance to all those defenders/controllers that dont like being called healers.. but even with buffs there needs to be done a load of healing

Post from CuppaJo here, saying that Caleb is currently bugged....
Looks extremely doubtful that a fix will be with us for Saturday Kin. Bugger.

Maybe Caleb is a myth, maybe the devs just want to drive us crazy... He's bugged...... he's not bugged... working as intended... he's behind you!.... oh too slow, next time turn around quicker...ect ect ect. Maybe he's the badge hunters version of ED?
Ok, so it sounds like bad news and I'm sure for this saturday it is BUT, I'd like to draw your attention to something Bridger posted:

We'd like to thank those of you who have been working hard to get Caleb to spawn - your efforts have been instrumental in finding the bug

So obviously someone has already got it right.

Great! What makes it even better is that after the yanks failed to spawn him, the devs swore blind it was not bugged.
OK, this is obviously cancelled now so we'll reschedule.
On another note, there is another GM other than Caleb and Scrapyarder so may trie to hunt him down
The cap au diable one?

Deathsurge (Electrical Gremlin GM) in Cap au Diable.
Apparently he spawns 'just right' of the Base Portal. I've never seen him, but spoken to people who have. Up to the last patch the badge was bugged. Since they've given the badges on CoV some much-needed love, I'm thinking maybe it's fixed now.
Worth testing, at least
Last I heard, Deathsurge still wasn't giving the badge. I'd like to be wrong about it though.

When i fought Deathsurge as Maiden Of Darkness, i didn't receive a badge. Also, i think he is a bit bugged. He is a GM so he has powerful attacks. He uses attacks from the Thunder Blast list and he knows things like Charged Bolts, Lightning Ball, Electric Brawl and the awesome Thunderous Blast. However, as someone commented when i was fighting him in the team, his Thunderous Blast recharges WAY too fast. Also, i got no badge, but it was a while ago though.

Sorry to dissapoint but after the villain badge was fixed I tried this got my electrician badge, went to check for deathsurge and sure enough there he was, took him down with a team but no badge awarded.
OK. Looks like the whole 'Caleb not spawning' issue is fixed, on the US test server, at least.
So maybe it's time to start planning ahead to try and organise a Union Caleb Hunt in preparation for the patch going live?
First up, I'm now taking bets on how long it'll be before the patch goes live.
It would be sensible to wait until the patch is actually live before organising another date. At least IMO it would

Yup, as soon as the patch goes live, I'll arrange another hunt.
Looks like this has been fixed in todays patch, and there have been some pretty reliable-sounding info on how to spawn him on the US boards. All systems go...

OK, just had an ad-hoc attempt to spawn him.
Maanged to get about 3o people along and went round killing as much as we could but no success.
I suspect it was because someone decided to camp the spawn spot and would not move despite 30 people asking him to. thanks a lot for that
I'll set up a sepereat thread regarding another attempt as soon as I read up on the US posts about how to spawn him
apparently spawning caleb works now but as soon as you hit him, the server crashes.
Demons and Vengeful Spirits (plus a couple of helpers ) Just spawned and killed him - no server crash on union... off to polish my Hellbane badge... he went down easy btw... its summoning him that's the killer
nope, we just nullified caleb just fine =)
edit: Wha Spark said =)
Was a bit risky spawning him given all the known problems. glad you got it but could have ruined a lot of peoples evening's by going ahead!
Union is now down. Hope your badge was worth it :P
Was nice to be one of the first to take Caleb on Union, even if I did die...
I wasn't sure anyone would be trying and checking the beaches found them pretty packed with nerva demons so guessed not, until he appeared in the sky above me and I lost him
Thanks to those who invited me and Adison to team and let the Knights of Injustice participate in Caleb's downfall
well it's only down becuase every man and their dog was on it overloading it =) it ran fine for hours after we were done ~_^
Nah its down due to the latest patch which went live with a crippling bug which brought all the servers down. It may or may not have anything to do with spawning Caleb, although Defiant went down as soon as Caleb was spawned.
Noir? What do you mean Lusca is the only "normal" GM in CoH? There are loads of them ranging from Adamastor to Jurrasik. Sure......they appear as MONSTERS instead of GIANT MONSTERS sometimes but they are still GM'S!
