I have 40 endurance, mask of the child, and the FaP ring so I don't have any problem running out of stamina and I'm able to block his attacks with my shield. The problem is that he eventually does hurt me and I'm often unable to get enough distance to heal. Casting spells also seems to be a losing strategy due to his speed and ability to dodge the spells.

I haven't practiced rolling at all through my playthrough so if I were to beat him with fast rolling it seems like it would take several hours of practice and I'm not sure I have the patience tbh. I guess maybe I am casul, but I don't really care.

My current plan is to up my vitality and maybe watch some videos. If that fails maybe I'll try summoning someone. I don't mind summoning NPCs, but I haven't really felt like summoning players. I guess that's partially because I don't want to deal with invaders and partially because I haven't needed to.

I have no idea how NG+ is going to go. At this point I don't expect myself to beat the DLC bosses in NG+. The regular ones in NG+ might even be too hard, but I want to at least get the DLC items in NG before going to NG+.
