Read this encounter
Finish Left Hand, then Right Hand, then the main body. Prepare the reserve team before the final sequence rather than equipping only the starting four. The next form’s body remains a Light target and is immune to Dark, but its added targets need their own affinity checks.
Answer the dangerous action
Remove The Keen of Fury before pushing the body low: consuming it restores and strengthens the boss. Last Resonance exhausts its actor and introduces a reserve. Choose the replacement before using your healer’s finisher so recovery survives the swap. One depleted health bar does not complete this multi-stage finale.
After the battle
Continue through the All-Out Battle and remaining story prompts. Optional completion belongs to the endgame checklist after the ending, rather than an assumed finish after the first form.
