To get the TemPad in the Roblox game Infinity Gauntlet | Thanos Simulator (developed by Blg42598), you must first unlock the Time Stick and Universal Weapon badges. Once unlocked, travel to the TVA time trial circle behind the forge, shoot the floor mechanism with a charged Gauntlet blast, and survive all five stages of Astra waves to defeat Astra (Boss Lvl 2). Eliminating this final boss awards the TemPad and unlocks its corresponding Roblox badge.
TemPad Obtainment Prerequisites
According to the official Thanos Simulator wiki documentation, you cannot trigger the TemPad encounter on a fresh profile. You must meet specific progression milestones before the trial yields the item:
- Time Stick Badge: You must have previously completed the base Time Stick challenge behind the forge.
- Universal Weapon Badge: You must have earned the badge associated with the Universal Weapon (or Cosmi-Rod) from the catacombs.
- Badge Requirement Note: You do not need to wield the Time Stick or Universal Weapon during the fight; having their badges unlocked on your account is sufficient to initiate the encounter.
Step-by-Step: How to Complete the TVA Zone Trial
The encounter takes place in the TVA trial area and consists of multiple escalating combat phases.
1. Reach and Activate the Trial Circle
Head directly behind the forge structure on the main map. Look down at the floor to find the time trial activation circle. Charge your Gauntlet using Q, then press E to fire an energy projectile directly into the ground marker. This triggers the trial portals.
2. Clear Early Astra Waves
Once activated, portals summon waves of Astra enemies. The initial stages feature standard Astra minions and the standard Astra Boss:
- Early enemies have relatively low health pools and can be cleared using ranged bursts from weapons like the Hadron Enforcer or heavy strikes from Mjolnir.
- Focus down the first Astra Boss to advance the trial into higher difficulty tiers.
3. Survive Level 5 and Level 6 Astra Waves
After the initial boss falls, the trial enters advanced stages with Astra [Lvl 5] and Astra [Lvl 6] units:
- Lethal Melee Damage: Level 5 Astra units carry Time Sticks and deal massive damage that can instantly down players. Avoid letting them surround you.
- Crowd Control Management: Deploy time freeze abilities (such as Time Stone zones) or freezing relics (like the Casket of Ancient Winters) to halt incoming mobs before they reach striking range.
- Movement Penalties: Getting close to these mobs inflicts heavy slowdown on your character. Maintain distance and fire ranged attacks.
4. Eliminate Astra (Boss Lvl 2)
The encounter concludes at stage five with Astra (Boss Lvl 2):
- Keep the boss locked in place using Time Stone freeze abilities or high-knockback strikes.
- Maintain offensive pressure using heavy-damage tools such as Surtur's Sword slams or focused Hadron Enforcer shots.
- Kill Credit Rule: Only the player who lands the final kill on Astra (Boss Lvl 2) receives the badge and item drop. If running the trial in a group, ensure whoever needs the TemPad secures the killing blow.
TemPad Controls and Time Door Mechanics
The TemPad serves as an advanced personal teleportation tool inspired by the Loki series, creating temporary dimensional rifts called Time Doors.
| Feature | In-Game Rule or Behavior |
|---|---|
| HUD Toggle | Press M1 or tap the screen while holding the TemPad to open or hide the destination menu. |
| Supported Destinations | Spawn, Forge, Catacombs, Lunar Island, World 5, and custom locations. |
| Placement Distance | Destination portals must be placed at least 100 coordinates away; placing them closer displays a Too close! warning. |
| Door Lifespan | Active Time Doors despawn automatically after approximately 1 minute. |
| Simultaneous Doors | Only 1 set of Time Doors can exist per TemPad at any given time. |
| Manual Reset Trick | You cannot manually close doors normally, but attempting to open a portal into an obstructed solid object triggers No Space!, forcefully closing the active set. |
| Entity Interaction | Both players and NPC enemies can pass through open Time Door portals. |
Frequently Asked Questions
Can other players get the TemPad if they did not activate the floor symbol?
Yes. According to documented wiki mechanics, any player present in the TVA arena who lands the defeating strike on Astra (Boss Lvl 2) will earn the TemPad badge, even if another player spent the effort activating the floor symbol.
What causes the TemPad to say "Too close!" when clicking a destination?
The destination coordinates selected must be roughly 100 units away from your current position. If your target location is within that threshold, the game blocks the portal and outputs the "Too close!" system notification.
Do I lose progress if I die during the wave fight?
Unlike certain catacomb encounters where boss health does not regenerate, dying during the five-stage TVA trial can cause the trial run to fail or reset, requiring you to reactivate the floor trigger behind the forge from stage one.
