if you still need help, you can kill Manus with ease using a glitch.

it involves using the Black Bow and firing down a hole to the right of the fog gate (you can see his red eyes), you will have to aim by moving the camera down with the right stick as the cross-hairs don't go far down enough to hit him.

i would recommend doing this hollowed as it takes a while to kill him and you might be invaded before he dies.

The Hawk ring isn't required to hit him but it does increase the damage each arrow does.
