The Magisterium Trial (MT, Magi) is one of the Incarnate Trials connected to the release of Issue 23 which takes place after the events in Dark Astoria and after the events in Belladonna Vetrano's arc. A minimum of 12 and a maximum of 24 players can raid the Magisterium.

In order to participate in the Magisterium Trial, players must have the Lore Slot and Destiny Slot already unlocked.

Prior to the mission, the league gathers in a "staging area" and speak with Dream Doctor. While there is no specific contact (the trial is entered entirely through the LFG menu), Dream Doctor continues to give information through text pop-ups related to the league's progress throughout the trial.

All Issue 20 Incarnate Components will drop during this trial, and Advanced Psychic Incarnate Experience is gained towards unlocking the Hybrid Incarnate Slot.

In Detail

The Magisterium Trial is an incarnate trial that takes place in Nova Praetoria. There is no contact for this trial, though Dream Doctor assists during the trial. However, rather than going to anyone for a mission, the players use the Team-Up Teleporter to find other interested players.

Phase 1

The League must defeat 250 IDF surrounding the Magisterium. +++ Missing Information +++

Phase 2

The League must Chimera, Nega-Pendragon and Shadowhunter. Chimera will mark targets for Rain of Arrows, Nega-Pendragon taunts and gains rage while fighting, and Shadowhunter gains rage while not fighting. +++ Missing Information +++

Phase 3

The League must defeat Black Swan. She spawns Shadow Portals which heal her and spawn minions, and will teleport the League to her and use Quills of Jocas to disable incarnate powers for a short time. +++ Missing Information +++

Phase 4

The League must defeat Tyrant. Surrounding the area will be 6 respawning Lights of the Well. Use the Quills of Jocas temp power while standing next to these to defeat them, which gives the team a temporary Level Shift while weakening Tyrant. +++ Missing Information +++


Notable NPCs

Please note that all Archvillains will be level 54(+2), while Tyrant will be level 54(+5). Level Shift and Incarnate Shifts are recommended to defeat them.
