'''Golgoroth''' is a [[Hive]] [[Ogre]] that appears as the second boss in the [[King's Fall]] [[Raid]].<ref>'''Destiny''', ''King's Fall''</ref> | '''Golgoroth''' is a [[Hive]] [[Ogre]] that appears as the second boss in the [[King's Fall]] [[Raid]].<ref>'''Destiny''', ''King's Fall''</ref> Containing a heart filled with and strengthened by "burrowing things", this Ogre was previously the creation of the traitorous [[Worm]] god [[Xol]] with the purpose of devouring [[Oryx, the Taken King]] and his family. However, [[Eir]] intervened in its creation and its new flesh was decreed a new shape as testament to the Final Shape, with Oryx giving him the name Golgoroth, causing him to become one of the most powerful [[Hive]] champions in the King's [[Court of Oryx|court]]. Later when Oryx carved the Tablets of Ruin out of flesh from the fallen [[Akka]], he sets one of them in Golgoroth as a rebuttal of Crota's demands to claim it, and from where the tablet was placed new flesh grew. | ||

When Guardians first enter the room, they will need to spawn Golgoroth. To do this, one must shoot down the orb placed at the center of the room. Once Golgoroth has finished spawning, it will use its Eye Blasts to attack all Guardians in sight and suppress them. Waves of [[Thrall]]s, [[Acolyte]]s and [[Adept]]s will spawn at the left and right sides of the room; kill these to begin the next phase. | When Guardians first enter the room, they will need to spawn Golgoroth.

Once all adds are dead, one Guardian will have to gain Golgoroth's attention as the five others shoot down one of six orbs of light hanging from the ceiling.

To get "Golgoroth's Gaze", the tasked Guardian will shoot the giant yellow sack on Golgoroth's back. The Guardian who shot this will now have to shoot the "Ogre's Venom" Axiom Darts fired by Golgoroth (three to four depending on difficulty). Whomever gets hit by one of these Darts is poisoned. As this is happening the five others will enter the pool made by the orb they destroyed and start shooting the blue spot on Golgoroth's opened chest. At any time a Guardian can hop out, destroy another orb, and take Golgoroth's gaze. This may be repeated as many times as wanted, up to six times per wave. | ||

Once at ~25% of his health, Taken will spawn instead of [[Hive]]. Once six deaths have occurred(or six orbs of light are unused in the damage phase in ''Destiny 2''), the Tablet of Ruin will be completed and all Guardians will be Drained of Light by the Soulsiphon Plinth and then killed. | ||
