Finally did it. No wonder I was always missing, it only counts if you cut it on the very, milimeter thick, tip of the tail >_>. Two hits and it was gone. As if that was not enough, the loot only counts if you kill him, otherwise you have to start the whole process again since the loot doesn't come out till he's dead. The Moonlight Greatsword is an epic weapon for magic-users, sadly i'm not one of them >_<.

As for damage not counting, you could only trully damage it once you broke the crystal on the other side of the arena. Took me a while to figure that out as well >_>. 

lol, I shoulda known I was messing something up.  I must've gotten lucky when I killed him then because I never made that connection.

His AOE and crystal breath attacks can also break that crystal if you bring him close to it. That's how I found out about it
