Referring to Durandal's (?) distraction bubble method. (DBO)

Yep, this was the final strategy my raid team used for Golgoroth to maximize DPS. We wanted to record the gaze holder's perspective for future reference, since it's more difficult to do it this way - the gaze holder has to drop the orb and grab the gaze solo while being targeted by Golgoroth. Well done doing it this way all the time - we'd been using a distraction titan bubble in the back right before this (and before the distraction bubble, had been using a distraction gaze holder).

The gaze holder gets on the top box on the left as shown in the video. The rest of the team is at the front, ready to move into the pit. A defender titan moves first and pops a weapons bubble in the front left corridor below the gaze holder before the orb is dropped (this is the bubble you hear). You can see RDH616 do this in the video. Note that Golgoroth isn't firing at a distraction bubble in the back right - he's firing at the gaze holder. As soon as the bubble is opened, the rest of the fireteam moves into the bubble in the pit. The gaze holder drops the orb with his heavy and grabs the gaze with his sniper. The DPS team is only steps away from the pool at that point and already buffed by weapons of light, so they can use the entire duration of the first gaze to do damage. With this strategy, we drop Golgoroth in two damage cycles.

This video was recorded during a Golgoroth challenge, so you see gaze holder #2 leaving at the 10 second mark.
