Key takeaways
  • Best party partners
  • How to fight a wild Galeclaw
  • PvP notes
  • Boss and raid use

Best party partners

Slot Galeclaw beside a Pal that covers the Neutral weakness chart at /elements, so a single swap answers whatever resists you. Keep one flyer for traversal and one Handiwork Pal for field crafting alongside it.

How to fight a wild Galeclaw

Open from behind for the backstab multiplier, keep its Slam, Aqua Burst, Thunder Bolt, Ice Shard on cooldown by circling, and use the /damage calculator to confirm your weapon clears its 61 DEF before you commit ammo.

PvP notes

Galeclaw is a niche PvP pick — bring it for the Bulwark partner skill rather than raw stats. Ranked lobbies punish single-element teams, so never stack two Neutral Pals.

Boss and raid use

Against tower and raid bosses, Galeclaw performs best with a same-type damage move plus a shield-breaking partner. Check the raid rotation notes on /guides before committing a full team.
