So how the fuck do you kill those?
I swear they're even worse than the Drakekeeper Knights from 2.
They swing endlessly, never stagger, never tire and kill me in two hits tops.
Parrying is semi-effective, but the timings are so weirdly delayed I have trouble getting them down.

Well that's the problem.
The moment you're standing only slightly off you only swing - and at that moment it's guaranteed 400+ damage.

I've always had problems with two-handed sword knights, my advice would be to run past them,the boss is a joke

rolling takes substantially less stamina compared to previous souls games, you can just circle roll their 3-5 swing combos and then get a couple hits in, stay back to avoid shield bash faggotry, circle them wait for next combo, roll it out, punish, repeat.
or you can sprint while locked to exploit backstabs, or parry.
just stay back and avoid shield bashs and the greatsword guys recover fast than the one's with shields but the strategy is still the same, just give distance wait for them to initiate attack, circle roll the fuck out of it, then punish but don't be greedy so that you can escape retaliation.
they are pretty good at punishing people who roll backwards/away from them.

The timing kinda shit you gotta roll into the swing right before it hits than you counter
