- Phase 3: the detached part fights alongside him and becomes a second damage target.
How to beat it

Gallery bosses reward fast punishes: gauntlets let you burst during the short recovery windows between attacks.
Learn the telegraphs first — every attack has a wind-up you can dodge — and make sure your weapon is upgraded before you commit a farming run.
