Keep up a magic resist shield at all times (you can get the Crest Shield from the knight upstairs). Use a bleed weapon, a dagger if possible (I just used the Bandit's Knife). Circle around him to stay behind at all times, getting hits in when possible. His ground slam is pathetic, his large AoE is easy to avoid by getting decently far behind him. Use these two attacks to heal and regain stamina.
