Mmh, I just noticed, you meet him at the elevevator first...that didn't happen either -.- dmaned FromSoft, why did you make me miss this so many times?!

You should do before you kill the boss at the Cathedral. Open the door reload the area go to firelink shrine and spawn again at the Cathedral

..

I never got patches to appear in the cathedral, I always have to get him in the tower...it's my 4th attempt to trigger this situation, what could I be doing wrong? Today I got there with a new char, and I rushed to oppen all the doors in the cathedrals and did not drop down from the roof to where the Finger covenant is, yet still no patches, despite Sigward being in the well...should I have done Farron Boss fight first before going to the cathedral?
