I have been trying for some time now, and I can't seem to find a way to the view point on the cathedral in the rich district of Acre. I can't get past the second story of the building. Any advice?

Hmm...
Well, best thing to do is to examine the walls a bit. Be sure it's the right way to the view point. Try looking for edges to climb up. Otherwise, maybe someone else has a second advise at hand. :/

I spent about an hour trying to figure this out yesterday. Climb up to the roof you can make it to, with the columns rising up opposite the landing. Climb up one of those columns, and shimmy your way to the outside ledge of it. Go up from there.

A warning, though: there's a Templar and a few guards up there. Not too hard, but it was a surprise for me.

If you need any more help, I'll try to find some pictures for you.

also if ur 2 confused still look on youtube for a video called cathedral chase, thatpretty much shows him climbing the whole thing

Start at the door thats being guarded (by Guards lol) and it is pretty easy from there its just a straight climb took me about 6 minutes to find

the way to climb it is quite simple. go the right hand side of the very front. wall run up and jump to your right. then jump to your left. climb up the glass window/clock thing and get on a landing. climb a ladder from there and turn to your left to find a tower. jump to the side where its a drop to the previous landing. climb up and when you get the chance, rotate to the right so you can go straight up to the top of the cross. There is a flag up there also. be sure to do the leap of faith by jumping down on the right side of the cross(if you are facing the same direction as the front of the cathedral) then jump right.

go to my site, and tell everyone about it. It is a clear walkthrough.

Keep in mind that you can push left or right and jump at the same time to get Altair to jump to an adjacent wall.
