Jolly adventures with Trusty Patches
By Mr. Graves
Greetings, everyone! I'm Trusty Patches, the one and only! Have you ever wanted to 'assist' other Undead while making a great amount of those shiney, lovely souls? Have you ever wanted to turn a huge profit and look fabulous doing it? Do you really hate those dirty, stinking, filthy clerics? Then I've got just the guide for you, my friend! Join me on my quest across Drangleic and help uncle Patches out on his journey!

It's never YOUR fault, mate..
The first thing to understand is that you are always blameless! Now, I am quite the handsome bloke, and quite a few people are bound to recognize me! If they summon me anyways.. well, they can hardly blame me for what happens after that, can they?

Now, if you really want to immerse yourself in the magic that is being me, you're going to want to look the part! My shiny, trustworthy black leather armor can be bought from that scoundrel, Gilligan. A halberd will suffice for the weapon, and the Twin Dragons tower shield from that shy little fellow in Majula will be sufficient for equipment. That gentleman Pate also has a very nice spear that I've had my eye on for a while, keh heh heh heh...

As for the face - if you think you can handle working with such a dangerously handsome fellow, I have the rare advantage of being both distinguished in appearance and also easy enough to imitate! No eyebrows, no hair, no style, no problem!

Now that you look the part, it's time to have some jolly fun-times with other Undead in Drangleic! Get your hands on a White Sign Soapstone from that fellow Pate, or else use the Small White Sign Soapstone in Cardinal Tower, and go and 'assist' some other Undead!

Jolly Co-operation!
The first rule of bringing the joy of Patches to other people: screw over the host.

It's his own fault for summoning such a dangerously charming bloke, and he can't complain! There are many ways that you can do this - my personal favorite? Luring them into the paths of ballistae with items, and then blowing the greedy bludgers away! If that doesn't work, you can always use your trusty Halberd, Fire Arrows or Firebombs to detonate those little black barrel bundles of fun you can find!

There are also several other notable areas across Drangleic where you can find it particularly easy to mess with your victi-ahem, host! The Iron Keep, for instance, with its' lever lowering a bridge into the lava. Ahhh, the memories! Brings a tear to my eye. Or maybe it's boiled Undead!

Another way you can turn a profit and turn a tombstone is misdirection and giving people terrible, terrible information! Point them towards wee beasties they don't know about and let them make a new friend! Open up a door leading to a fire pit for them so they can warm their aching bones! It's grotesque!

Finally, invading is another surefire way of bringing some light into an Undead's life! One simple rule here, lads: act friendly. If you can spare it, drop them an item or two to gain their trust! And then when the stupid bastard turns his back, stab him in the liver and slice his guts out for garters. Hours of fun, or your money back, in slightly reduced form!

Most importantly... ALWAYS make sure those dirty, stinking Cleric bastards get what they deserve!

That's all there is to know, lads! Now, get out there and make me proud! Remember to fight without a shield - those things are so clunky, and they weigh you down something awful! Keh heh heh heh heh...

my favorite is to use lifedrain patch on the host because it hurts friendlies. Do it right as the boss is about to die. That is the best. If they try to crystal you out do it then too because they will be stuck in the huddle and die. In patches we trust

Don't foget using the Warmth pyromancy on bosses. Everybody loves it when you do that.

Patches entered my world the other day. He seemed like a friendly fellow, just another white phantom, but for the life of me I couldn't recall summoning him. Next thing I know, my new chum and I are engaged in a friendly sparring match!

It was a close bout, in the end we actually struck eachother down. He was even kind enough to die with me in perfect harmony.

"Stupid guide written by a rat." "A guide for cowards without balls."

They're all the same, those rotten clerics.

Those feggots, who are talking about "rat" style, haven't played DeS or DaS. Go die in fire, idiots.
