You can heal with Shape of Unn or quick focus. Just before the 4th flame pillar erupts is a good time, as well as during the cloak spike. I could reliably hit him after the dive even without mark of pride, you have to time it perfectly to hit him just when he straightens up. Agreed that the fight is down to recognizing his attacks, and mark of pride is very useful here, especially when combined with longnail (I didn't beat him with them, but 60% of my tries were with them). The advice for flame pillar was very useful, I would add that you can get in a full-damage abyss shriek if you play your cards right during the fourth column.
