  1. I dont think the Mortal Flame thing is a bug. It specifically works when in combat, for the entire length of combat, and if you cast it as a first attack you're not in combat yet so it doesnt do anything. It's kinda like how you can't use Scholar's Aetherflow outside of combat, or other similar skills, but just without the game locking off the skill when it wont do anything, since entering the fight mid-cast will make it work they dont wanna be too restrictive. tl;dr not a bug but just unintuitive

  2. Just to nitpick some of your spell selection:

    Both ends > Nightbloom, since it deals physical damage you can use it for phase 2. Just need to position yourself on the far end of the arena from the crystal so you don't accidentally break it.

    Mountain Buster > Surpanakha, better earth spell choice for the same reason, it deals earth physical damage so you can use it to speed up phase 2.

    I like goblin punch > Abyssal Transfixion but that's preference between instant cast vs ranged.

    Also, to compensate for not having sprint during Goldor Rush, I brought Moonflute for the 30% speed boost. It made not getting hit a lot more consistent, and the downtime didn't slow the kill down much.

  3. if your having a hard time during the rush mechanic in phase 2 where its earth lightning and a fire aoe following you, i ended up using moonflute during that to get extra movement speed to dodge things easier. i had some terrible rng with lightning spawns and cleared it when i moonfluted. sense u have no time limit thats why im suggesting it.

  4. I completely forgot about Loom and was using Diamondback during the heavy debuff, I feel so dumb, but thanks for pointing that out. Also yeah, Goldor isn't hard, just a little unforgiving to slip ups.

  5. This fight is really fun but has one small flaw in my mind, whoever decided RNG lightning AOEs would be a good idea when theres a lot of AOEs going off was a evil evil person, ive been at it now for 2 days and the thunder keeps blocking off safe spots or just trapping me in rush

    I will say tho this guide has helped me out a lot for this fight

  6. One thing i did during the suck in of the cyclpos is sure cast it when i can made it a lil less stressfull at certain times gratend i had to do it quite a few times cause unlucky lightning patterns trapping me during gold rush . But i eventually managed. I also took the extra heal of rehydration with me to safe mp and when im to low to get a significant heal on ww though i would sugest switftcast hydrate since its a longer cast

  7. For gravity use loom target goldor, and walk on the opposite goldor blast just couple walk, and you get no hit. Because when you loom target goldor, it will positioning you on center of goldor.

  8. They should really reduce the HP of this boss, this achievement isn't difficult but spending 20mins on the fight for it is a bother when the large majority of the fight is just repeated mechanics with nothing new.

  9. note that if you get hitten by the dolls twice even as healer with gobskin you still die, you cant outshield over 100k dmg(1 doll does around 50k dmg with its aoe), so unless you are a tank, you will die 100% if you get hitten by 2
