@zeik: Circle strafing in the direction of your enemies off-hand has been a quite successful go-to tactic for me. Circle strafing the Old Dragonslayer made him really easy as he kept forward charging. The pursuer took me two tries and I also simply strafed to the right and would occasionally roll when he charged up his sword. That fight was a close call because right near the end, with only about 1/5 of his lifebar left I got the dreaded red text that my shield was about to break, and I fat roll so dodging my way through this was not an option. Right before my shield completely broke I decided on a suicide run to hit him as many times as I could, hoping my lifebar somehow endured until he died. It was quite spectacular: he was one hit away from dying and I was on the end of my stamina with one swing left. I see him begin his heavy attack animation and start frantically hitting RB - I was just barely able to squeeze in my attack before his swing connected with me ending the fight.
It was the most satisfying boss battle of the game so far.
