Dungeon quick facts
Toppled from his seat of power, Vauthry, the final Lightwarden, has fled to Mt. Gulg, whose fiery summit now hangs in the firmament, beyond his enemies' reach. However, with the aid of the myriad peoples of Norvrandt, you succeed in building a gigantic Talos that rises to take the volcano in its grasp. Using the golem's rocky body as a bridge, you begin the arduous ascent to your quarry's newly built paradise, there to put an end to the tyranny of Light.

Boss and mechanic notes
Mt. Gulg has local boss notes for: Forgiven Cruelty, Forgiven Whimsy, Consort of Sin: Forgiven Obscenity. These notes are pulled from the local wiki and should be treated as source-backed prep unless separately marked as human-reviewed strategy.
- Rake: Tankbuster
- Lumen Infinitum: Frontal line AoE attach with no ground marker, move away from boss' face when he starts to cast
- Cyclone Wing: Room-wide AoE
- Typhoon Wing: Don't stand in front of green orbs around boss to avoid triangular AoE attack
- Typoon Wing: Further into the fight he will add aether current-looking AoE puddles as well as his orbs around him - dodge both to avoid damage
- Sacrament of Penance: Room-wide AoE
- Catechism: Tankbuster
- Judgement Day: 2 meteor puddle - 1 person will be enough to soak damage
- Exegesis: The boss rearranges the pattern of faces on itself, and the faces will begin glowing. The boss's 3x3 arrangement maps onto the arena floor. Stand on a square without a face, as the face-containing squares will be hit with an AoE. Note that the pattern of faces is always symmetrical.
- (Shiny Orbs): Occurs same time as Exegesis and spawns large donut AoEs on the ground - avoid both for no damage. For many patterns, the upper corners of the arena are safe.
- Orison Fortissimo: Raidwide AoE.
- Sacrament Sforzando: Tankbuster.
- Divine Diminuendo: Circle AoE around the boss. Glowing variation: Two more Ring AoEs spawn. To dodge, stay close to the edge of the initial circle AoE.
- Conviction Marcato: Line AoE from the front of the boss. Glowing variation: The boss casts additional line AoEs from the discs surrounding it, forming an X-shaped AoE. To dodge, be on any cardinal except in front of the boss, outside of the boss hitbox. Note: The glowing disc directly behind the boss does not fire a line AoE.
