Revision as of 21:39, 3 June 2008
A Trial is a lot like a Task Force/Strike Force but they tend to be shorter. Trials contain unusual encounters with enemies that require a high level of cooperation between team members to conquer. Special rewards are given at the end of trials, such as respecifications or enhancements that affect multiple attributes. Most contain a timed finale mission.
Each trial has a minimum team size and a maximum level cap. Trials cannot be outleveled because high level teammates are automatically exemplared down. Special contacts are required to begin the trial but anyone of the proper level with the proper size team may talk to the contact. The trial will spawn enemies at the maximum level every time. They may be run multiple times.
While running a trial, none of the team's other missions are available to them. Once the trial has been formed, you must continue to run the trial until you finish it or drop from it.
Trials have badges associated with them and often have unique mobs, maps, or both.

Rewards
Each team member chooses a reward upon completion of a trial. The respecification trials offer the options of a Pool D Recipe drop, a respec, or one of the usual origin-appropriate enhancements. (The respecification option can only be selected 3 times per character). The other trials grant other choices, including recipes from other tables, "monster" enhancements or the standard single origin enhancement. Monster enhancements are not available choices for characters exemplared to the Abandoned Sewer Trial.
Raids
Raids are large zone events that have many differences from Trials but are generally listed together with them. Raids do not have contacts, and may be initiated at any time. However, they generally require 20 or more level 50 characters divided into multiple teams, and may take several hours to complete.
| Raid Name | Typical Size |
Level Range | Notes / Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rikti Ship Raid | 20+ | 35 to 50 | no completion reward, only Vanguard Merits |
| Hamidon Raid | 50 | 45 to 50 | Hamidon Origin Enhancements Pool D Recipe |
Raids are available to both Heroes and Villains. The Rikti Ship Raid is cooperative, whereas each side has its own separate Hami Raid.
