| Spoiler: | keep hitting him, he'll eventually get mad, you need the giant souls to beat him though, thats why your tries to aggro him were unsuccessful, i tried without the souls and i found out i was only dealing 19 damage to him and his health is like 10000 or something  |

edit 2.0
| Spoiler: | you can just run from those giants in the memories, the one where you get the drganleic helm is impossible to beat on time at least, so yeah i just ran like a pussy |

undress completely, only keeping a weapon and a shield maybe too,
when he raises his head, run diagonally either to the left or right, while closing in on him and then hacking away at his feet.
as soon as his wings start moving, run the fuck away, preferrably the opposite direction he is facing.
once he lands back on his feet, run up to him again, 90% of the time he will raise his head again, then rinse and repeat.
the fight is actually quite simple, its very methodical and doesnt require reflexes at all, just planning.

I'd say something about overcompensating but I was using a even bigger sword for most of the second playthrough so that's not going to work.
(Got the royal sword after a while however so now I'm using that, took the shield the first time.)
| Spoiler: |
Holy shit was the royal greatsword a disappointment, what the hell is that thing? His wife/queen as a giant club? That's even worse than Havel's "hammer" which is a dragon tooth or something, or a fossilized turd.
Oh and yeah that soul you need lying in the open - although hidden - and not respawning when using ascetics so you actually have to beat the game three times to collect all those items.
Yeah I collected those, now I'm using bonfire ascetics like crazy boosting every area to level 10 so I can get blue-balled in the map room - the flames indicating boss victories change color to blue - , which has no apparent effect supposedly just like a certain pendant from the previous game, or maybe no-one has found what it's supposed to do yet.

Theres absolutely no point in having a shield when fighting the ancient dragon because ALL of his attacks are 1 shot kills if they land shield or not unless you have a certain ring that's only available in NG+ or bonfire aesthetic a certain area!
oh and as for lore he's not realy an ancient dragon at all he's Lord Aldia vendricks brother,the real ancient dragon can be found in the game though!
edit: ok just found out you can dual wield shields and will block his fire attack aslong as you've got enough stamina.

well, an upgraded gyrm greatshield with a high stability (80 or higher) can withstand one second of the flame attack on a full stamina bar, after 2 seconds youre dead.
so yea, its pretty much useless in that fight.

You need to 2 hand the shield for that to work also it needs to be +10, i had a shit load of stamina so i managed to block 2 hits, also standing in the central blast zone is gonna fuck you up.

With those you should have all of them.
(Rotten, Freya/Vengarl, Sinner and Iron King)
| Spoiler: |
You need to make your way to the shrine of winter in the shaded woods, it will open and give you passage to the , well to the area you need to go to.

the rotten, freya, lost sinner and old iron king are the 4 great souls, if you killed the rotten then you have all of them.
dont be confused by the look of the souls themselves, i think freya´s soul looks like a normal boss soul and not like the other great souls, but still is one.

It seems a bit random to me, most of the souls have the usual slightly larger golden hue and then you have the large fiery looking ones but that's not limited to just those four and then there's the other ones.
| Spoiler: |
The abyss (?) corrupted souls from the Throne Defender, Throne Watcher, Velstadt and Nashandra.
(Vendrick has no soul, it's somewhere else.)

that's a good choice too, but i did like the move set of dragnliec sword a lot more, the mace's reach is quite small.

He is very easy but takes a lot of time. Just dodge all his attacks at the very last second and apply two hits and then back away.
