How the hell do i kill that knight on High Wall of the Lotrich?
There's a big knight-like guy walking around with giant amount of hp attacks that are undodgeable and that drain your stamina in one second. How the hell should i kill him?

Don't.

Parry or dodge the attacks

There's not enough stamina to roll and dodge, and he destroys your stamina immediately if shielding.

Can you parry those winged knights? I don't think so...

Not the winged knight. The Lothric Knights.

also stun lock him with a weapon that staggers,
ex greatsword
Do you mean that fatass before boss?
Stay on balcony and use magic / ranged attacks and then kill him with drop attack.

Roll his attacks then backstab him, repeat until dead

I only started a few days ago myself. I Bait out his lunging attacks or avoid his slash combo and then get a hit or two in. I wouldn't roll right as he might shield bash you on your way around.

Blocking with them is risky as, if you have low stamina or if it's a strong attack, you'll be left open to a proper hit. If you time it right you could backstab him as well.

All knights can be parried and backstabbed, including their weapon arts.

If you can't parry with a normal shield use a Small Leather Shield, Buckler or Target Shield; they have extended parry so more room for error.

The shield can't be parried, though, only their swords or spears. If you block/parry the shield bash it'll drain your stamina and you'll receive some damage.

If this is the first time you've met them then I suggest skipping them, there's a bonfire pretty close after the first knight. And you are going to have to fight Vordt right after the next 3 knights (or the Dancer if you are in mid-game or have the balls to fight her in the beginning).

The dual axed winged knights can be parried.

You can lure him in dragon's breath during that first time encounter. But you really should learn how to fight against him, because such type of enemies will be present very often in the game.

I'll just agree with all the people that say "don't"... wait until he's on the other side of the fountain, then just sneak past. You can come back later to fight him, but he's not got any guaranteed drops or anything (and sneaking around will let you loot up the stuff around the fountain just fine). These guys show up as regular enemies later, but at that point you'll be stronger and better at the game.

Just get gud

I usually just parry their running attack and after riposte I finish them off with a few attacks from behind. Spear wielding lothric knights are easier to kill. If you run past them from their left side then in 95% of cases they will try to stab you with their spear(which always misses) and you get a free backstab.
