Strategy

A shotgun-and-magic duel that punishes predictable mid-range movement harder than most sword bosses do.

Solve Walter by denying his comfort range. Zig-zag the approach, force the shotgun blast at bad timing, and only commit once the shot and reposition tool are both on the table.

Use the boss cheat sheet for quick escalation from the full strategy profile.

Phase Breakdown

2 HP Bars data is still being cross-validated across multiple route confirmations.
