Abyss Watchers
Old Demon King
Dancer of the Boreal Valley
Oceiros
Champion Gundyr
I was never able to catch my first run on video, but here’s my second run. Unlike on the first kill, this time, it was without parrying (a feat I thought nigh impossible).
Crystal Sage
Deacons of the Deep
High Lord Wolnir
Pontiff Sulyvahn
Aldritch
Dragonslayer Armor
Twin Princes
First Run
During my first run, the Twin Princes killed me consistently. Even when I wasn’t doing a NDR, I was not skillful enough to fight them efficiently. After something like 70 attempts or more, I finally took down the Twin Princes.
Second Run
My second run definitely showed off more skill, and I’m glad, because I really did not want to spend hours fighting them again.
Nameless King
So far, this victory is my proudest. This is the only time I’ve actually ever beaten Nameless King, and the fact that I did it during a NDR makes it even sweeter.
Rules
A naked dagger run is a type of challenge run I created for myself after watching certain streamers take down bosses with no armor. I wanted to do that, as well.
