Here's my boss fight against General Janus in Hyperstrange's first-person melee game, Elderborn.
This is a no damage fight on "Hard AF difficulty" - the hardest difficulty in the game.
Best weapon to use is either the Spear or the Sickles as they have the parry attribute. Parrying Janus is relatively simple, even on Hard AF difficulty, which makes most of this fight a game of patiently waiting for his attacks.
Most of his attacks can be parried, which then allow you to get 2 or 3 hits safely. Immediately dash backwards to safety as he will counter with a leg kick. You can't parry his kick, so you always want to avoid it.
Midway through the fight he'll enter a new phase where he gets more aggressive and leaps at you. I think his first big leap is unparryable. Best to just dash left or right to avoid the hit. His follow up swipes can be parried, though it took me a moment in this fight to realize that was the case.
Another good attack is the "Charge" attack. You can unlock the charge attack in the Might skill tree. Charging him from a distance interrupts his attacks and momentarily stuns him. You can usually get in 1 hit after a charge, though sometimes it's better just to retreat if you're trying to no damage as he will retaliate with a kick very quickly.
My skill upgrades in this fight were:
Might - 5
Sped - 7
Resilience - 5
Not sure if that is low or high for this stage of the game, but I doubt it matters. This fight is more about timing than upgrades, though having the Charge skill and having a little more speed and damage obviously doesn't hurt.
Reward for defeating him is the Janus Sword, which is a heavy weapon. Like other heavy weapons it can block most attacks but is incapable of parrying.

I was told by Dutch not to get into trouble in town. So when this happened, all I could think of doing was calming the distressed animals. And maybe getting a new hat. And sparing a brief, very brief, thought for Gavin, wherever the hell he is.

This is for the requirement to complete the "Spark Redux" mission while wearing the Solstice Scorched Armor set. I'm lower level than most as I only just moved to Destiny 2 on PC in the past week.
Sorry about the video quality framing out pretty badly. Not really sure why it went like that...I think I need a better PC. :/
