![]() ![]() Remaining on the bridge for too long will give Patches enough time to reach and activate the switch. Occasionally the player can get to the other side and back without Patches noticing, although afterwards he will still apologize and give a humanity. In the Catacombs, moving Patches away from the switch via Dark Hand, kicking, exit and reload or by wearing the Ring of Fog will allow the player to cross the bridge once without stopping.As with other similar NPCs, using the Dark Hand will not cause hostility towards the player. Employing the Dark Hand's special attack against Patches, the player can obtain up to seven liquid Humanity.Patches is the only merchant who sells the Crescent Axe, the Cleric Set, the Eyes of Death, and the Masks of the Father, Mother, and Child. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you want to meet Patches in the Catacombs, do not talk to Petrus after Reah arrives as this will trigger their party to leave, causing Patches to move to the Tomb of the Giants.Patches' very existence implies that he is trans-dimensional or that every reality contains a version of himself: the Hyena in Demon Souls, the Spider in Bloodborne, Trusty/Unbreakable in Dark Souls, and the Untethered in Elden Ring. Little is known about Patches or his background, although he has previously been acquainted with Shiva of the East, Solaire of Astora, Lautrec of Carim, and Petrus of Thorolund. Patches sells some useful items, many of which are of limited stock, as well as assorted cleric equipment-likely collected from earlier victims. He will take up residence in an alcove near Frampt and act as a vendor for the rest of the game. Patches remains in the Tomb of the Giants until Gravelord Nito is defeated, after which he will travel to Firelink Shrine. Answering in the negative will prompt Patches to give the player one Twin Humanities. Dying before talking to Patches will cause him to question how you survived and become hostile. Upon making their way back to him without dying, Patches will beg forgiveness, asking if he is still a friend. He will attempt to trick the player into looking over the edge of a cliff, and will promptly kick them off. Patches is encountered again early in the Tomb of the Giants, not far from the earliest available bonfire. Speaking to him before attempting to cross, then speaking to him again after will prompt him to ask if the flip caused any trouble an answer in the affirmative will result in Patches giving the player a Humanity. If Patches was not spoken to before the player attempted to cross the bridge, doing so afterwards will result in him giving the player a Soul of a Lost Undead. The player may survive either by running back before the animation starts or by rolling off the bridge onto the conveniently placed ledge to the right of its center. Upon the player's attempt to cross the bridge, Patches will attempt to kill the player by flipping it. Although seemingly neutral, his intentions are less than friendly. If meeting Patches before Reah has left for the Catacombs, he will appear in the first area next to a bridge lever. On first meeting the Chosen Undead, Patches will ask, "Are you a Cleric?" An affirmative answer will result in him attacking the player, immediately ending his questline. Knight Lautrec expresses misgivings about Patches before the player first encounters him, giving players new to the series a hint that Patches is not trustworthy. ![]()
