Strategies
When you fall into Nito's domain, you will take some damage when you land. Make sure you can survive the fall and be sure to heal once you land. If you kill his small skeletons with an divine weapon, Nito becomes the easiest boss of all. You can easily strafe behind him for free hits and all of the attacks except the sword dance can be blocked, resulting in large amounts of damage especially if you atack him with fire weapons or pyromancies (as he is weak to fire). It is not recommended that you go near the end of the arena as that will attract large skeletons, making the fight more difficult.

OBS: If you healp the Reah of Thorolund in the pit earlier in the Giant Caves, she will give you the Crescent Axe, which is a divine weapon (Divine weapons are effective against Nito).
