On this guy for my Assassin build, I always ran along with Daggers. Never used the sword unless it was stronger for when I always knock him into submission, then Dire Gouge works better. My Dagger skills are Hundred Kisses, Instant Reset, and Masterful Kill. Instant reset is good for if you get struck by a Lightning attack or if you get knocked down(only works when you freshly hit the ground). I always use Masterful Kill on any physical attack he uses, and Hundred Kisses are for spamming on his head for the beginning. Also, be sure to grab the Dodge Roll for faster fleeing/dodging. Saved me plenty of times.

You can take the safe route by having the Shield and using the Enhanced Response for an extra parry option, or keep a bow on hand with Full/Mighty bend, and whacking him in the face should you be on the ground when he performs his rift attack. I never really bother with any other bow skills, since this is the only one I use.

I made a pure strength build and fought Daimon plenty of times playing as an Assassin, and this is the best set-up I currently have for him. Beat him constantly with little problems(the Magick spamming is rough though. So use the shield when he's using mainly ice and lightning magick, then switch to the bow when he uses the rift attack).
