Miracle Only No-Hit

Dark Souls 3 Miracle Only No-Hit Run
The Miracle Only No-Hit Run is a type of no-hit run that is similar a traditional no-hit run except it uses a miracle chime or talisman exclusively as its damage source after acquiring the Lightning Spear miracle. All miracle spells are allowed as well as the heavy attack and weapon art of the miracle chime or talisman. Prior to picking up the Lightning Spear miracle, the use of a weapon is allowed. Fist attacks (unarmed) are allowed on these runs as well. Like traditional no-hit runs, there are several different categories of the Miracle No-Hit run based on how many bosses are defeated; Any%, All Bosses and All Bosses + DLCs.

What is considered a hit?
-If the character does a "Hit Animation" in reaction to either an ally or enemy's action, it is considered a Hit.

-If an enemy (either a boss or a basic monster) hits the character and causes some damage, it is considered a Hit.

-If an enemy (either a boss or a basic monster) hits the character without causing any damage, it is still considered a Hit. (Stagger Hits)

-Being hit by a projectile (arrow, bolt, spell, knife, bomb, ...) is considered a hit.

-If an attack with an AOE hits the character (for example, the explosion produced by Yhorm's stomp), it is considered a Hit.

-If an enemy falls on the character, it is considered a Hit.

-Blocking an attack with a shield is considered a Hit.

-Environmental damage is not considered a Hit (for example : Lava from Smoldering Lake, Poison from Farron keep, etc..) However there are exceptions to this. Attacks from traps for example, are always considered a hit. (i.e Catacombs of Carthus dart traps) There is no consensus for all cases of environmental damage. The fires burning in Farron and Undead Settlement cause damage and a stagger but not all runners consider them to be hits.

-Status Effects (Frostbite, Curse, Bleed, Poison, Toxic), if caused by an enemy, are considered a Hit when the gauge is fully filled.

-Dying because of fall damage is considered a Hit.

-Indirect damage that reduce the Health Bar, such as those caused by the Irythyll dungeon jailers, are considered a Hit. (The number of hits caused by the jailer "drain" attack can be very difficult to determine. Some runners count each "tick" of health lost, while others count the entire drain as one single hit)

-Falling through the floor and any other similar glitches leading to death or a "Hit Animation" are considered a Hit.
