TACTICS
- ▸An invulnerable shield triggers in the final phase. Hold your fire and focus on dodging while it's up, then pour damage in the instant it drops.
- ▸It hovers fixed up top — great for sustained frontal fire, but watch the wide bullet spreads.
- ▸A chapter finale boss — it returns in later chapter rosters at higher HP.
