Use a combination of 4-piece Passerby of Wandering Cloud and 2-piece Fleet of the Ageless.

Passerby of Wandering Cloud 2-piece effect is as follows: Increases Outgoing Healing by 10 percent. Its 4-piece effect is: At the start of the battle, the character immediately regenerates 1 Skill Point.

Fleet of the Ageless’ 2-piece effect is: that it increases the wearer's Max H.P. by 12 percent. When the wearer's speed reaches 120 or higher, all allies' attack increases by 8 percent.

Alternatively, use 4-piece Thief of Shooting Meteor and 2-piece Talia: Kingdom of Banditry.

2-Piece Thief of Shooting Meteor’s effect is: that it increases the break effect by 16 percent.

4-Piece Thief of Shooting Meteor’s effect is: to increase the wearer's break effect by 16 percent. After the wearer inflicts a weakness break on an enemy, it regenerates 3 energy.

2-Piece Talia: Kingdom of Banditry’s effect is: to increase the wearer's break effect by 16 percent. When the wearer's speed reaches 145 or higher, the wearer's break effect increases by an extra 20 percent.

For Gallagher’s body piece, use an Outgoing Healing Boost percent main stat. For his feet piece, use a Speed main stat. For the planar sphere, use an H.P. percent main stat or a defense main stat. For the link rope, use a break effect main stat or an energy regeneration rate main stat.

Reach a total of 3500 or more H.P. Reach a total of 1000 or more defense. Reach a total of 100 percent break effect. Reach a total of 134 speed.

Level up Gallagher’s talent first, then his skill, basic, and ultimate in that order.

Gallagher’s best purely free-to-play light cone is What is Real, the new Penacony light cone in the Light Cone Manifest, aka the memory of chaos shop.

At S5, What is Real’s effect is: Hypothesis. Increases the wearer's break effect by 48 percent. After using their Basic attack, restore H.P. for the wearer by an amount equal to 4 percent of their max H.P. plus 800.

If you have pulled on a lightcone banner or have just pulled 4-star light cones, the best gacha light cone for Gallagher is Post-Op Conversation. Its effect at S5 is as follows: Mutual Healing. It increases the wearer's energy regeneration rate by 16 percent and their outgoing healing when they use their Ultimate by 24 percent.

An interesting team would be Clara, Ruan Mei, Gallagher, and Aventurine. Gallagher is not much of a solo sustain unit because he does not have a cleanse. So, Aventurine is here to sustain the team. If you use Gallagher as a sub-dps, then Clara can counter attacks against enemies affected by Besotted, which allows her to be healed every time. Ruan Mei improves Gallagher’s Break Effect potential as he scales on Break Effect.

Since Gallagher can debuff enemies with his Enhanced Basic Attack and Ultimate, he fits well with Dr. Ratio, Topaz, and a sustainer like Fu Xuan. You could also try to have Gallagher solo sustain and add Silver Wolf or Asta as your fourth member. Silver Wolf brings more debuffs, and Asta increases the team’s speed. Silver Wolf allows you not to worry about specific weakness requirements, while Asta is more geared around enemies with fire weakness.
