Everyone should just run to the back right ledge after damage (at this point #2 gaze should already be doing his thing) behind Golgoroth. Grab the gaze, jump over the gap and run to the front. Everyone can grab the gaze without issues from there. Make sure you jump the gap and run around the long way. That way none of the ogre's venom hits your team while you are running up front.

Success Criteria

Each player present in the raid team must hold the gaze once and not more than once during each cycle, except the phase where golgoroth is defeated. 6 people are required for this challenge mode. It can not be done with less than six people. A cycle is from the moment someone grabs his gaze, until the gaze can no longer be captured ("Failed to capture Golgoroth's gaze")

  • If someone dies before getting a gaze in a cycle, and can not be resurrected, you must kill golgoroth on the current damage phase to succeed.
  • If someone dies after getting a gaze in a cycle, and can not be resurrected, you must kill golgoroth on the following damage phase to succeed.

Rewards

  • Hard mode: 320 raid gauntlets, boots or chest piece + 320 artifact
  • Normal mode: 310 raid gauntlets, boots or chest piece + 310 artifact

Team Composition

  • Bring at least one defender for weapons of light. He should use helm of saint 14 if possible to blind the thrall which come into the bubble.
  • Bring at least one hunter to tether the taken thrall during the taken phase and tether golgoroth during other phases. This hunter should use black hole to tether more adds for a longer time (important)
  • If you have 2 titans, you can have them take turns using weapons of light (if they don't have max intellect/shine on), or have one be a sunbreaker and apply the melting point debuff to increase damage (tether and melting point dont stack so dont use them at the same time)
  • Classes/subclasses of other team members does not matter

Gear and Loadouts

  • The best gun to grab the gaze is a sniper rifle. One crit shot in golgoroth's back will grab the gaze.
  • The best gun to DPS golgoroth is the black spindle sniper rifle (shoot without reloading)
  • Alternative setup for golgoroth DPS: Sleeper simulant and Defiance of yasmin - 4 sniper shots, switch to sleeper, 3 sleeper shots, switch to sniper: 4 sniper shots, switch to sleeper and reload. Go back into the titan weapons of light bubble while reloading.
  • Alternative setup for gologoroth DPS if you don't have the above: high impact triple tap sniper rifle
  • A good gun to clear adds is the dead orbit hung jury or any other scout rifle with firefly (firefly procs a lo during this fight)
  • Bring a piece of gear that lets you carry more sniper rifle ammo (very important to maximize your damage per phase against golgoroth)

General Strategy

  • Assign a number to each player, 1-6
  • 1 is always the main gazer, the team will only jump down/destroy the orb/damage Golgoroth when 1 has the gaze
  • This is essentially the regular "single orb, single gaze" strategy, so just destroy the front left orb like you always do
  • After the DPS phase/when you jump out of the pit, 3 and 5 should be at the front left
  • 2, 4, 6 should go at the back right (ledge that is jutting out)
  • Players 2-6 just pass the gaze around in order, shooting Golgoroth's back
  • You don't even need to count down the timer anymore, as soon as his back is to you, and it's opened, shoot it once it's your turn
  • Once player 6 has the gaze, Golgoroth's back will also close and no one will be able to take the gaze again for this cycle
  • Player 6 can destroy the orbs like normal, or run around the arena to avoid the orbs, or shadestep to make the orbs lose tracking. They can also have teammates destroy the orbs that Golgoroth is shooting at him, until his timer runs out
  • You'll get "Failed to capture Golgoroth's gaze"
  • Just go back to your safe spots and kill the next wave of mobs
  • Repeat these cycles until he's dead
  • If "Enrage is near" appears because your damage is low, do DPS when number six has the gaze on the right side bubble. Be careful of the adds spawning around you and apply a tether to the ground OR have someone use a super to clear them (stormcaller, sunbreaker)

Alternate Strategy For Trading the Gaze between Team Members

Everyone should just run to the back right ledge after damage (at this point #2 gaze should already be doing his thing) behind Golgoroth. Grab the gaze, jump over the gap and run to the front. Everyone can grab the gaze without issues from there. Make sure you jump the gap and run around the long way. That way none of the ogre's venom hits your team while you are running up front.
