first try zero deaths

no upgrades on the character, aside from the ones you unlock automatically throughout the game.
The only non-optional upgrade I believe I have is the one you get from killing O'rin, restoring a bit of health when getting a deathblow. In this fight, however, that never comes into play.

![Elden Ring - Beast Clergyman/Maliketh the Black Blade with only Coded Swords [level 1, ng+7]
Maliketh has 80% resistance to holy.
Coded Sword does pure holy damage.
Using them is basically like using an unupgraded weapon. Elden Ring - Beast Clergyman/Maliketh the Black Blade with only Coded Swords [level 1, ng+7]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NqxWiAGL28s/mqdefault.jpg)


![Naked Twat with a Stick vs Malenia, Blade of Miquella [RL1 flawless, no Bloodhounds Step and more]
No, these kills do not prove Waterfowl Dance is fair. It is not.
No AoW skills, no items, no blocking, no parrying, no hit, no spirits, no summons, no temporary buffs like flash of wondrous physick. That gives like +100AR and extra staggers, its really strong.
