Havel is scary at first, what with his UltraPoise® armor and 1-hit Dragon Tooth. However, his attacks are extremely predictable and he is very susceptible to parries. Eye his swing, and look for what you think is the right time (usually right after the lifting of the weapon to the top of its arc and right before the power stroke), and try it. The super-resistance granted by a partial parry will spare you some damage but a misses parry will kill you. Many experienced players reflex-parry anything predictable or setup parry an enemy, and it becomes more of an exercise in learning movesets.

Not that these enemies are actually parriable. >.<
