I Agree!, I agree that Patroclos is a noble comrade because he wants to save the other danaans,
As an example I will let you read the lines of Patroclos when he wanted to go to war and ask permission to Achilles.
"Don’t be angry, Achilles my prince, our strong deliverer! Such misfortune has come on our people! There they are, all who used to be the best in the field, lying wounded, shot or stabbed, somewhere among the ships! Diomedes Tydeides is wounded, Odysseus is wounded, Agamemnon is wounded, and Eurypylos is wounded too — shot in the thigh with an arrow. They have the surgeons busy about them with all their medicines curing the wounds—but there’s no curing you Achilles! I pray I may never have such grudge in my heart as you have. Curse your courage! What good will you are to any one from now to the end of the world, if you will not save the nation from destruction? Cruel man! Your father was not Peleus nor your mother is Thetis—you are a son of the green sea and the stony rock, with that hard heart!
“if there is one prophecy you are afraid of which your mother told you from the lips of Zeus, let me go at least and take out our Myrmidons, to see if there is any hope in that way! Put your armour upon my shoulders, and perhaps the Trojans may think it is you, and give a
So he prayed, poor fool! For his prayer was destined to bring death and destruction for little rest to our tormented people. Little time to take your breath face to face with sudden death! And it will be easy for us coming into the battle fresh, to drive weary men from our camp away to their city!” himself.
And Achilles let him go and fight the trojans.
I also agree that Patroclos is a noble warrior because he slayed so many enemies in example I will let you read the line where Patroclos killed many man.
“Patroclos cut off the front of the routed army, and then drove them back towards the ships. He would not let them get back to their city, but kept them in the space between the ships and the river and the city walls, charging and slaying, until he had exacted the price of many lives.
First he stricken Pronoos and killed him, when the shield uncovered his chest. Next he drove at Thestor, who was crouching down in his chariot dazed with terror, the reins dropped from his hands. Patroclos came quite close and stabbed him in the right jaw through teeth and all, then dragged him gaping over the rail by the spear; rock lands a big fish with hook and line. Erylaos rushed at him, but Patroclos smashed his head to pieces in the helmet with a stone and brought him down. Then he attacked one after another Erymas and Amphoteros and Epalted, Tlepolemos Damastorides, Echios and Pyris, Ipheus and Euippos and Polymelos Argeades, and laid them all flat on the ground."
