Darksiders 2 Gorewood Apocalptic

To avoid the Back Hand, simply diagonal dash back once, twice to be safe
To avoid the Charge (he turns red) dash sideways
To avoid the Root, simply diagonal back dash, then jump forward towards him, it'll auto de-aggro the root

Jumping is the best way to avoid his rooting attack.

Be sure to put on Apocalyptic difficulty setting before attempting this boss for best loot table, all his attacks are extremely easily avoidable and the root ability only brings you down to 1 health.
