I was there for the whole fight, did a lot of healing, kept my DoTs up. I do not understand how you are supposed to get Silver and Gold?

Behemoth spawned once. I could not see him, empty screen. AoE still killed me. Stood beneath him and he flickered on and off the screen as I moved around. I got the Behemoth Horn but rewards look EXACTLY like the CE Barding. What is the point?
Your party factors would have changed, remember that your Bronze/Silver/Gold is based on your entire party not just you.
I've been the only healer in a full DPS party but we still got bronze, because if half of your party can't even see the boss then they're not really doing anything at all.
DOT's are best anyway since the average consensus is that you only see the World Bosses for about 5 seconds before they disappear for up to 30 seconds.

As for Behemoth, unless you're a Tank honestly I don't recommend going close. Due to the way the game works is you can only hit enemies if you can see them (Meaning AoE spam won't hit them unless you see them), but they can hit you (because they can always see you)
DOT's will remain if you can't see the boss because they're then registered on the enemy itself (server side), so you just need to throw the initial dot on them then if they vanish you're still ticking points.

Sadly the best thing I can say for Behemoth is to keep your distance and use any ranged attacks whenever it appears, which is hard since you need to be close... close enough to be cleaved ><
