Excepted the cheese in the area for the regular boss fight (balistas), this boss, with the ruin sentinels, is the most unbalanced encounter in the game.

He moves quickly, can shorten distance between you and him in a second (rushes on you), and is very agile (with his overhead attack - thrid combo).

You lose all your stamina trying to dodge his attacks, leaving with no much opportunities to hit him.

FROM software did'nt bother allowing the summoning of a NPC phantom for help.

The only opportunity I had to defeat him was with other helping players.

I was able to defeat him in Ironkeep by overkilling him (given my stats this time).

Furthermore, he protects the only 100% physical damage resistance shield (Drangleic Shield). if you don't have it, don't expect be able to kill the ruin sentinels as well ...
