Stuck on the Long Lost Lore quest

Self1sh

So, I'm a level 5, and I made it through Ondil really easily. I psuedo-kite the things summoned by the portal to DoT them with Soul Snare and Searing Strike, using Stonefist to knock them down. I get to the final boss (I assume), Gutspripper, and I die repeatedly. I can sometimes *almost* kill him, but after noticing that all my armor is 0/X and needs to be repaired I see that I can't leave the area. Or at least I don't think I can.

So... I either need a really cheap way to kill him as a Dragonknight without any available skill points to spend, or I need a way to get out so I can level up once or twice. Any and all help is appreciated.

    Update: I found a way to trick him into running back and forth easily. I still just died, but I just have to keep my DoT's on him.

    Update 2: While he's running around a pillar, he keeps getting stuck when he's close to dead and respawning without counting as me killing him... I'm really hoping this is just random chance.

    I've done this boss and he's relatively difficult for his lvl. I think level 5 is too low to have any realistic chance of success against him (though if anyone has managed this solo, well done.)

    I know there's no door on that dungeon but you can still leave using map>locations and clicking on a wayshrine. My recommendation would be to do that and level up a bit. You will be able to reenter the portal later from the Mage's Guild in Daggerfall.

    I actually WAS able to kill him, with all my items broken and at that level. I used the same basic strategy of jumping on/off his platform while he walks around to get at me. I eventually just stalled for Magicka while I stunned/DoT'ed him and got him as a level 5.

    When all else fails, try a restoration staff. Continual movement and any Mavis that stuns and/or hinders movement is great. I also like to use a bow with all 16 of my characters.

    (Spells not Mavis) I have 8 characters on North Am and Eu servers.
