-Goldor will again cast Shining Summon, this time to spawn 4 Gilded Marionettes, after which he will cast Quake.  You will need to position yourself just outside the edge of the resulting Quake circle AOE halfway between any two of the Gilded Marionettes in preparation for moving into a small survival area just a bit forward from there.  The 4 Marionettes will the being casting Golden Beam, which results in an intersecting pattern of wedge AOEs.  When that pattern appears, you must immediately bump yourself forward into the small area just inside the AOE circle but before the lines resulting from the intersecting wedge AOES.  It is a VERY small area, but it is crucial to being able to survive the ensuing massive damage that is created by the overlap of Quake and Golden Beam. You must do this quickly, because AGOH will cast Diamondback on you a little less than a second after the Golden Beams are cast. To make it easier to see the survival area, you can zoom way out and take an overhead view of the arena. If you are properly in the survival area when you get the Diamondback effect, you will not die, but if you aren't, you will.+Goldor will again cast Shining Summon, this time to spawn 4 Gilded Marionettes, after which he will cast Quake.  You will need to position yourself just outside the edge of the resulting Quake circle AOE halfway between any two of the Gilded Marionettes in preparation for moving into a small survival area just a bit forward from there.  The 4 Marionettes will then being casting Golden Beam, which results in an intersecting pattern of wedge AOEs.  When that pattern appears, you must immediately bump yourself forward into the small area just inside the AOE circle but before the lines resulting from the intersecting wedge AOES.  It is a VERY small area, but it is crucial to being able to survive the ensuing massive damage that is created by the overlap of Quake and Golden Beam.

 This mechanic only occurs once in Act 2.  It is moderate stress, but once you become familiar with the visual of where that survival area is, it's not too hard to reliably position within it. This mechanic only occurs once in Act 2.  It is moderate stress, but once you become familiar with the visual of where that survival area is, it's not too hard to reliably position within it.

-Goldor will now periodically cast Shining Summon to spawn 3 Gilded Golems, a Gilded Marionette, and a Gilded Cyclops.  When this happens, run behind the Gilded Marionette and wait for the Gilded Cyclops to cast 24-carat Swing - this will cause Goldor to walk towards you and cast Blast (occasionally, there might be an AOE behind the Marionette - if so, just avoid it at the perimiter then get behind when it dissipates.)  24-carat Swing wil cause you to be sucked back towards the center. When this happens, there should be a rectangular AOE from Blast that will be to one side of the Marionette, and your goal is to immediately run between the Marionette rectangular AOE all the way to the perimeter.  Then, when the checkerboard AOE pattern resulting from Golden Cross occurs, you should already be located in a safe square, but if initially you are not, just quickly bump yourself into it. Once the checkerboard pattern dissipates, run back up through the Blast AOE behind Goldor and get in a few melee smacks, then position yourself in the arena center.+Goldor will now periodically cast Shining Summon to spawn 3 Gilded Golems, a Gilded Marionette, and a Gilded Cyclops.  When this happens, run behind the Gilded Marionette and wait for the Gilded Cyclops to cast 24-carat Swing - this will cause Goldor to walk towards you and cast Blast (occasionally, there might be an AOE behind the Marionette - if so, just avoid it at the perimeter then get behind when it dissipates.)  24-carat Swing will cause you to be sucked back towards the center.
