I don’t think it’s possible as the damage is really low.  
If anyone achieved it he/she deserve huge respect for his/her patience.

one way to increase unarmed damage is the attack buff rune, i use it on a torch.  
rune damage rings should also work for the focus attack, not sure if other general dmg% modifiers on armor or rings work.

There are people who have finished Dark Souls unarmed, and in that game punches literally do 1-2 damage (while an starting weapons deal about 50-100).

In NRFTW it’s still a very very difficult challenge but it’s more feasible, because you have the basic fist rune even without any weapon.

This video it’s the most recent one I found, has the “new” bosses but it doesn’t have the echo knight:

I’m sure that even when the game is complete there will be very dedicated players who will do it.
