Overview
The Cathedral of Pain Trial is a trial in which your Supergroup participates in obtaining an Item of Power by completing it. Your Supergroup will need either an Oracle or Mission Computer in order to start the trial. The Trial can only be attempted during a 7-day window during a 28-day period. After the 7 days, a 21 raidable cycle begins. (Note: Base Raids are not currently available.) Your base item is currently saved during this time period, but in the future, that will all change!
In order to take on this enormous challenge, the supergroup must also have a Base with the following items:
- 8 rooms
- 6 dimensional anchors
- Mission Computer or Oracle
- Raid Teleporter
- A base/mount for the Item of Power
The Trial accommodates up to 24 players which can form three teams.
All players are sidekicked/lackeyed to 50. Players who are defeated in any part of the trial are transported back to their base hospital.

History
The Trial was only available for part of one cycle (see above). It went up in late September 2006 and was taken down from Live on or around October 11, 2006. There is no word from the devs on when it will return.
Addendum
The Trial was taken offline due to a game-breaking exploit. The exploit enabled any member of the SG running the trial to run a delivery mission or "fedex" type mission and upon clicking the end contact, the mission would not complete but the character and team would still recieve the mission completion bonus. This resulted in several people clicking their way from level 1 to level 50 in a matter of hours, and also allowed the accumulation of large amounts of prestige and influence for various SGs and players.
