Does anyone have any tips on how to defeat that Hydra monster in Darkroot Forest?

go close enough (not too close, or youll fall into the deeper parts of that lake) to make him stop casting his annoying lightning bolts, nd instead throwing his heads towards you. block them (the chance of still erasing your entire stamina bar is petty high though) to lower the damage taken, and then try start hitting his heads as long as they are in range. rinse and repeat, if you managed to get 2-3 heads off, the battle is pretty much decided.

Is there any chance to avoid his heads instead of blocking? My DEF aint that high
