How do you beat the human mini boss with the giant shield?

[Taul Power]

I'm about to uninstall this damn game if I can't figure out how to beat the boss with the big sword and big shield. I've died for 30min straight and I'm so frustrated, especially since every time you die you spawn, walk to the gate, open the gate, wait through some dialogue, kill his 2 basic guards and then finally fight the boss. The lady in your head tells you to break his shield but I just can't. I'm using the main game sword and axe and using rage but I just can't get past him. He kills me in 1 or 2 hits and I'm playing on normal. WTF am I missing here? I always at some point get caught with either his dash or a big hit that I can't avoid and die. Please help!!!

I just beat this boss a few minutes ago. Very tough fight. I don't know how to beat him straight up. However, I found a way to cheese the fight.

So first of all, carry the two health bags before the door and open the door and throw them in the arena, without getting inside. Then while still outside the arena, shoot the 2 guards (trash) next to him with your legendary bow. Just use strength and normal arrows and they are 1 hit dead. I don't think you can hurt the boss this way.

Then get to one of the pillars. Stand behind it. Get close enough to the boss so that he starts walking towards you. At this point you want to shoot his feet. You want to shoot his feet while he's close to you. Then change weapon to legendary axe, run to boss, use strength and aim for his shield. This should be a one hit breakage of his shield.

You want to get back into the pillar and have your guard up. Heal up if you need to. Take a peek around the corner if you need to. You'll want to dash out of the way of attacks or block if you can. After he's done with his attack animations, you run in and use strength and hack away. Heal up as needed when you're cowering behind the pillar.

Using this strategy, I killed the boss in one try (I had died twice earlier just trying to fight the boss straight).

Thanks, I'll try that but I don't even get to heal. He kills me in 1 hit most of the time. Either his dash that gets me in 1 shot or the red attack he does where if I dash 1ms to early he still hits me somehow since his range is ridiculous. I'll try to cheese it a bit using pillars and see.

We will be updating his damage on 12/12, he's definitely a tough one as it currently is. It's really just about (for now at least) getting in 1-2 shots, dodge the charge, repeat.

Easier said than done when 1 hit or charge from him is instant death lol.

Ok so I finally beat this mini boss and there is definitely something bugged here. Many times when I tried to break his shield it would just slowly start to break down but I could never fully break it. This time I was able to break it in 2 hits. Also this time I didn't get 1 hit killed like in my the other attempts. He charged me once and hit me once with his sword and I was still alive.
