The main thing to remember in this fight is that you don’t have to get rid of all of Thane’s health. As long as you clear two-thirds of it, you’ll succeed. To beat him, you’re best learning the free move he teaches you, then get into the habit of evading an attack and immedately dashing back in to him and hitting attack. This’ll activate the new move, then follow up with several secondary weapon moves (ideally you’ll already be using something like an axe).
Be careful when you see Thane’s main move change to lifting his weapon above his head. This is your signal to evade left or right and you’ll need to repeat this a maximum of four times before he returns to his ‘regular blade attack’. Thane will now alternate each move between regular and ground slam attacks, so you can plan in advance for this and dodge his attacks much more effectively.
