I just beat him with Random on duel mode, 2nd try after switching tactics. He also hits me for 380-440 per round.
Strategy is actually very simple, but annoying. Make sure Random has around 400 PD, and an item that counter-hits and counter-spells. What happens is that when the dragon strikes, you'll strike back automatically. After that, just drink potions: 50% life or the health elixier for 100% depending on how severe the damage was.
High resistance is important to keep him from getting in critical strikes, he never "critted" against random, but against Baretta he "critted" on his first attack (2205!!! Ouch!). Also, don't be alarmed if your sword only deals like 400 dmg per hit. The God dragon seems to have far less HP than the King Dragon. (weird) I used Emperor's Sword, probably the wrong choice, but that was the highest dmg sword I had.
Anyways I beat him on the 2nd try, you should be able to do it in this manner. (You'll need tons of potions of 50% and 100% HP though. And make sure you're speed is high enough to get the first hit. Save close to the dragon and experiment. (might take a while if your dmg is low)
My Random was 98 and Baretta like 50 something.
