We already have a couple teams full from the 3 SG's and friends... so, we're looking for more and will try to fill as many teams as possible!
If we have to... we'll dual box, we'll add more leaders, whatever is necessary, to make this a GREAT event for all the toons on Liberty!
I'd like to join, whatcha need so I know who to work on getting nukes for.

I'll have to CoP one of these days 
/gignore @username is the best feature of this game. It's also probably the least used feature.

Good luck to all that are doing it!

Excellent. I'll try and be in for this one. :-)
Just FYI
Patch notes for build 1850.201009101722.1T.
Tasks
- Cathedral of Pain - Fixed Merit diminishing returns. Merit rewards were dropping off too quickly when diminishing returns kicked in. This has been fixed.
- Warburg Missiles can no longer be used in the Cathedral of Pain.
Also, I will be supplying my ventrilo.
If we have 3 simple teams we can use Dream Weaverz base, with 3 simple leaders.
*Note* If we use Dream Weaverz's base, we'll need 3 DW team leaders so we can access your base and do the CoP.
If you can grab 2 other people for team 2 and 3 so we can access your base.
6 teams, we can either use Ops or Maulers and Medics bases.
Team 1: Draygos + his sg
Team 2: Me + my SG we will have 10 maybe 11 Ops
Team 3: *don't Know*
Ocho, I don't know what team he'll be on, guessing draygos' team. Be cool to get him on vent =)
Also my vent can hold 50people(im not the owner, used to be) @Pagan-Steel probably will set up where only the team leaders can talk and everyone else is muted. (which is 2 raids full) If we can get 48 people for 6 teams is great! Also can fit 48people in the vent server.

I took the time to read and snip out the important stuff. This is all from Amy's Guide, and I quote.

Example Team: 1. Melee (Tank/Brute/Scrapper) 2. Heal Source (Empathy/Pain Domination/Thermal/etc.) 3. Debuffs (Rad/Dark/Cold/Thermal/Traps/etc.) 4. Debuffs (Rad/Dark/Cold/Thermal/Traps/etc.) 5. Ranged Damage (Blaster/Dominator/Corruptor/etc.) 6. Ranged Damage (Blaster/Dominator/Corruptor/etc.) 7. Shield Buffs (Force Field/Sonic/Cold/Thermal) 8. Any AT The Trial Part 1: Obelisks The person starting the trial will get the following mission information. (Participants of the trial can view this same message by clicking on 'Mission' from the nav bar, then clicking on 'more'). After the trial has started, everyone can enter through the raid TP in the base. You will arrive on a map with 3 obelisks called Gloom, Woe and Despair. The obelisks themselves are always in the same location, but Gloom, Woe and Despair are not always in the same place. Therefore, it is easier to refer to each one according to their position on the map: NE, SE or SW. At the center of the map is a portal, which is the entrance to the cathedral. Click here to view the map. In order to open the portal, the obelisks must be defeated within 30 seconds of one another. In other words, co-ordination during this part is they key. All obelisks will be encased by a shield that renders them unaffected. Next to each obelisk is a Willforge (AKA "cube") that spawns Rularuu. In order to drop the shield protecting the obelisk, the Rularuu spawn must be defeated. Once the shield has dropped, you will notice swarms of Natterlings around the obelisk. These mobs increase the obelisk's regen. However, they are not much of a threat and strong damage can easily overcome their presence. Therefore, have all teams ignore them completely and focus on the obelisk. Each team should be assigned to an obelisk by the raid leader and gather up by it and start buffing. Make sure the teams are close enough to see the obelisks, but far enough away not to draw any aggro. Once all 3 teams are ready, the raid leader can give the signal to start attacking. The Trial Part 2: Inside the Cathedral Once all 3 obelisks have dropped, the portal at the center of the map will be open. There will be a cut scene (or mini movie) starring either Ruladak the Strong or Lanaru the Mad. It is at this point you will know which AV you will face once inside the cathedral. Ruladak the Strong will appear in red, whereas Lanaru the Mad will appear in purple. Have all teams enter the cathedral and start to buff up inside. Once inside, you will notice that you have a very similar situation as you did outside: there will be 3 cubes with Rularuu spawned and this time an AV with a shield instead of an obelisk with a shield. With that said, the strategy when inside is very similar to the strategy you just used outside in the sense that each team will be assigned to a cube to clear the Rularuu to drop the shield on the AV, then once the shield is down, fire away at the AV. The main difference is that with the AV, you will have to clear the Rularuu spawn and attack the AV for multiple cycles, whereas the obelisks can be dropped in one cycle. Quote:

Thanks, Hazy. Amygdala's info seems to be spot on. I just now got clobbered trying to solo the CoP - I wanted to see what I will be getting into. With the right (balanced)team, it really doesn't seem that tough.

@Ukase
Assuming this is blue side, I'd like to try and bring my Blaster. I kinda have a thing for Ocho, so...I'm excited to attend.
My global is @ParagonBrawler I would be interested on my Elec/SS tank
Matt posted some key points. The only other thing I'd add is to read up a little on the 2 possible AVs. Most groups have more difficulty with the Storm AV vs the other one.
If you have any questions, I'm just a server away.
Good luck!

I am happy, I got to beat TheOcho 6-1 in the arena. It was fun.
Ocho will probably use his ice/storm corruptor that has 22badges L50. :P

I will be leading Team 3, known in game as DaSlaya one of the leaders of Maulers and Medics, getting a head count in the next few days..and looking forward to the event! I Hope its fun for the server!!
Things for the event are coming alpmg nicely... Matt is the technical guru and is getting things together well... DaSlaya is putting together SG mates as well... So, we'll see who all we get over the next week or so and then work on setting teams...
Depending on the future, we may also have additional GOOD NEWS coming our way for this event...

Come join The Cathedral of Pain as only Dream Weaverz, Project Obsidian Operations & Maulers and Medics Super Groups can bring...
We've invited 'The Ocho' to team with us and we'll be handing out some New and Unique Titles to all who participate in this event...
The initial plan is to meet in Pocket D then head to the Dream Weaverz Base to start the Cathedral of Pain... However, depending on the overall number of participants, Obsidian Ops and Maulers and Medics SG's will also be able to host teams through their bases as well...
Team Leaders will be on Ventrillo and team members will also have that option... So, we'll be able to coordinate our efforts more easily...
I'll update this post with more details shortly with team make up needs and other stratigic details...
We hope to make this event a huge success for Liberty and hope you'll come join us for The Cathedral of Pain!
I highly suggest and encourage you to read Amygdala's guide to the CoP BEFORE we start our quest tomorrow night...
