Opinion:
TL;DR Amazing modded fight, pufferfish attack couldve been good but is too inconsistent.
This fight is really well made and thought out except for one thing. The pufferfish attack. While the concept is completely fine, a very small proportion of the fireballs just dont behave. They will go off in a pretty much random direction which cannot be controlled. On top of that, the trajectory of the balls can curve slightly while traveling (sometimes, they will swoop across the ground and curve upwards instead of hitting the floor and disappearing)
The stray projectiles can go up to 180 degrees away from your current position, I have even saved a clip in which exactly that happens. Because of the unpredictability and the quantity of fireballs, you will often be forced into extremely precarious situations, which you cannot reasonably be expected to account for in the moment. You have some control over most of the fireballs and when you turn around to dash through, but it doesnt feel like its enough to reasonably dodge this attack consistently, especially in the final phase when the orbs are significantly larger (and maybe theres more, too)")

In addition to the restrictions in the title and thumbnail, I also chose not to use Red Feathered Branchsword or Blue Dancer Charm in order to represent builds viable for normal playthroughs. I also avoided weapons and playstyles that abuse staggers. I did not use ash of war skills except on Rykard.
The boss list is basically Remembrance Bosses and those required to get to them, and some notorious gank fights. All bosses are hitless except Fias Champions, which is still damageless as I only got hit by a non-damaging shockwave. For Mohg I used the crystal tear to reduce Nihil damage, unfortunately the chip damage is unavoidable unless you triviliase him by bursting his hp and skipping phase 2 entirely.
I did Goldfrey and sewer Mohg but omitted them as their movesets are just phase 1 of their stronger versions. I also had a faster Rennala where she never summoned, but I decided to redo it in order to showcase the suffering.
edit: Ignore the Fias Champions kill. The ng+7 scaling was improperly applied due to a bug, so they had less hp than intended.
