The Chimera isanother multiphase boss fight(which all the bosses will be going forward from this point in the game). During the first phase of the battle the Chimera will take to the air and players will have very limited opportunities to strike while the beast is grounded between attacks. That means lots of dodging, ranged attacks, and a quick hit-and-run technique are the best ways to get started until its wings are clipped in phase two.
