Tips for Gpa boss

I don't mind the first 2 bosses a lot, but when it came to the last boss, he was pretty annoying with all his 1/1s and seals.

Other than mindlessly tanking him, which is quite hard without slow, do you sit back spamming pots and Illusion, or what other tips do you guys have to share?
It was my first time going to solo the 3 bosses, however when I got him to the very last 10% hp, Grandpa over there killed me with a 1/1+seal and at the same time a mob poof'd on top of me (so technically the mob killed me, yes) - I was missing him half the time, so "just kill him as fast as you can under 30 seconds" won't help.

My tip mainly focused on summons anyway seeing how "usually" mages tend to die easier due to 1/1 then a mob summoned then POOF, dead. As long as you can hit the boss with a killer wings attack, just try your best not to attack ANY other monster except the boss (unavoidable due to final attack but still can be much more limited because of KW), then at least you won't die unless you missed a pot or lagged.

EDIT: and on how to lure it, when it first shows up: try to make it focus its attacks on you then move to right (whatever corner is closer to you, right preferred by most) then teleport to the left when the boss is almost touching you. Repeat if he ever goes out of the corner. This requires timing and almost constant repotting though but its much easier for an evan(high hp and MAGIC SHIELD helps a lot!) assuming you don't get 1hit KO by touch damage?

And remember to not turn on teleport mastery, as you may hit a mob and it might re-summon back when you're hit by 1-1.

The first boss only gives that stun attack which you can either tank or telecast around, the 2nd drains your mp, I guess. I got rather clumsy at the last one, focusing on potting and sealing that I mixed up my all cure and pot button.

@Urvin: I'll try out that technique tomorrow, thanks .
GPA moves a lil' fast for my taste, considering how I'm used to slowing bosses.

Try not to kill ANY mob as soon as boss comes up and no familiars out. Then:
(1) pin to corner by luring him,
(2) killer wings ASAP once he's on corner,
(3) spam illusion (or blaze but blaze might hit a mob if somehow a mob spawns near him)
this method worked for me at least 9/10 times with the missing 1 when I die out of lag ==''

There really isn't a tip for GB other than what @Skyenets said, and that's to attack using flame wheel which should be able to keep you safe from most if not all of his attacks.

Other than that, the only other option is to have quick reflexes in potting(if you don't have a pet to autopot for you) and kill it asap.

Oh I almost forgot, you can always try and tank him to avoid his attacks using touch damage iframes.

You could attack him with flane wheel at a reasonable distance. Hiwever I personally rely on auto cures/pots.
