Gilded Coast

Gilded Coast is a Hidden Realm Environment that can be reached when the player enters a Gold Portal spawned by activating an Altar of Gold. Alternatively, there is a rare chance for Gilded Coast to appear in the Lunar Seer at the, allowing the player to travel to Gilded Coast as their next stage. The time and difficulty meters are paused while the player is in this map.

This area is where the player fights the boss, the Titanic Goldweaver. The main purpose of fighting it is to obtain its boss item, the.

This is also the location for the Blackout challenge.

Gold Portal
The Gold Portal can only spawn by spending money on an Altar of Gold and then completing the Teleporter Event.

Halcyon Beacons & Aurelionite
Scattered across the map are seven Halcyon Beacons, each costing gold to activate. Halcyon Beacons have a base cost of $25, equal to the cost of a Small Chest. This cost scales over time with each stage like all other interactables.

When the fourth Halcyon Beacon is activated, Aurelionite will spawn. While there are any inactive Beacons, Aurelionite is invulnerable to all damage. After a certain time passes, Aurelionite will deactivate all the Beacons, requiring the player to go through and buy them all again. Because of this, a good strategy is to defeat many monsters before Aurelionite spawns to save up a lot of gold.

Defeating Aurelionite will reward one Halcyon Seed per player and spawns a Gold Portal, allowing the players to leave the stage.

Chests
There are four Small Chests that are guaranteed to spawn in set locations around the map. The costs of these chests scale the same as other levels; however, their costs are not recalculated until the player finishes the next normal stage. This means the cost multiplier carries over after the player leaves Gilded Coast and complete the next area.

One chest will spawn at each end of the half-buried ring structure, and the other two chests will spawn in the water nearby: one behind a tree, the other behind a fallen golem statue.

Logbook Entry
The Environment Log can be found far above the map on one of the chain-linked ring structures that stretches out from the ground. The Log is located at the base of the seventh ring, tucked away near the center where the sixth ring loops over it.

Unlike most other environment logs, it will not disappear 5 minutes after entering the stage.

A significant amount of mobility is required to reach it; this can be easily accomplished with, and  with.

can make the climb with careful use of, if she positions herself on the inside of the rings and launches herself directly toward the fused links on the side of each ring, and then climbs the outside of the upper half from there. A single can provide course correction at the end of each jump, if needed.

Trivia

 * The internal development name for Gilded Coast is Gold Shores.
 * Along with the four Small Chests there is also a preplaced Gold Chest, just above from where the Environment Log is. However, it is disabled from spawning, but it can be enabled through modding. It seems the developers initially wanted to entice/reward players by visiting the Gilded Coast at any chance with a guaranteed Legendary item, but this idea was scrapped.
