You'll encounter Phantom in Mission 3: Destroyer of Ardor. To get the trophy you just need to beat him. His legs are armored and protect him from damage so try to attack his soft parts, and watch out for his lava attacks. You can use the pillars to avoid his other projectile attacks.

This boss is found in mission 3. He has four attacks. He 1) swipes with his front legs, 2) jumps into air to land on you, 3) shoots a beam of light from his mouth and 4) causes pillars of lava to shoot from the ground. 1 and 2 can be dodged by jumping out of the way. 3 can be blocked by running behind a pillar or countered with a RB+Y and 4 can be avoided by moving around. I’ve found that jumping on this back and doing a downward swipe to be most effective.
My main reason for posting this guide is to inform everyone that the achievement is not awarded until finishing the level. I replayed this fight several times thinking the achievement was buggy.

This is a story trophy, you will receive it after defeating the first boss.
The Phantom itself isn't too difficult, but if you're having trouble, there are a couple of simple tactics to defeat it:
1. If you have already purchased the ability of Alastor's sword - Air Raid. All you need is to accumulate the Devil Trigger line, activate it by pressing
, jump up and press in the air 
. If you did everything correctly, Dante will start shooting lightning at Phantom. When Devil Trigger ends, run and shoot the boss with a shotgun. Once you have accumulated DT, repeat.
2. The demon's only weak points are its head and back. Dante's weapon will not penetrate the rest of the body. We run up to the muzzle (if you bought the Stinger ability, use it) and hit it. With Stinger and other powerful attacks, you can even interrupt the attack of the monster when he tries to spit a fireball at us. When you notice that the spider is raising its paws, immediately jump to the side or onto the monster’s back, pressing
3. At higher difficulty levels, when you have already completed the game, use Ifrit. Namely the capabilities of Inferno and Rolling Blaze

The first boss of the game. You need to jump on his back and extinguish him in a vulnerable spot, simultaneously dodging the lava molasses.

Maybe I have a glitch, but the method described above did not work, even when the tail was deployed.
The tactics are simple to the point of disgrace: stupidly 3-4 strikes with a sword in the cephalothorax and run away, thereby avoiding the block and subsequent claw attack. Then we dodge the geysers 3-5 times and repeat the procedure.
