This guide was written based on the PS3 version of the game. It should also be applicable to the Xbox 360 version. Inside the guide you will find a full walkthrough covering every story mission and secondary mission. The strategies for these missions are proven to work. Also included will be a several sections describing peripheral tasks. These include the shops, Borgia Towers, and faction missions. I do not claim to be an expert on the game. My approach for the guide was to attempt stealth strategies whenever possible. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood is a pleasurable experience and hopefully with the aid of this guide any in game frustration will be minimized. ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ V E R S I O N H I S T O R Y [2.0] ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ Version 0.90 -Submitted 11-28-2010 -Story Walkthrough Complete -Trophies listed -Secondary Missions started -Shops list with most of inventory Version 0.95 -Submitted 12-7-2010 -Multiplayer section added -Additional Memories listed -Secondary Missions completed -Truth Section added (locations complete, clusters needs work) Version 1.0 -Submitted 12-25-2010 -Truth Section reformatted ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ B A S I C S [3.0] ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* General Tips *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* -Buy the Crossbow as soon as you have collected enough money. It is an invaluable tool that will make Ezio's adventures much easier. -Recruit and upgrade Assassins early and often. Seek out and overtake the Borgia towers so that you have more Recruits. Regular visits to Pigeon Coops and/or Assassin Headquarters will be of benefit in the long run. -Though it can be cumbersome to use at times the map (and mini-map) is a very helpful tool. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Controls *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Buttons ------- Movement -------- Ezio's movements are of two primary types low profile and high profile. Low profile movements such as walking, blending into groups, and sitting on a bench will keep Ezio from being noticed by guards. High profile movements, however will draw attention to Ezio. These type of movements include: running, using a weapon, climbing, and entering restricted areas. Perform high profile movements to a great extent or in the wrong places and guards will seek Ezio and attempt to kill him. The key to being safe is to know your surroundings as well as what and how much you can get away with before being seen. Watch for chevrons that are filling with yellow. This means that an enemy is aware of Ezio. The chevron fills with color the more Ezio is noticed. Ezio is relatively safe as long as the symbol does not turn red. The red color indicates a guard is on high alert and will attempt to pursue and attack Ezio. Combat ------ The square button is the primary attack button. Depending on the context, Ezio can perform several moves with this single button being pressed. The key to quick and efficient combat is the counter. If you hold R1 and time a tap of Square as an enemy attacks, Ezio will block an attack then counter it with an instant kill. Once the kill is made Ezio can then switch focus to another enemy for a string of quick kills. Enemy after enemy can be quickly killed as long as Ezio is not interrupted by an attack or he runs out of enemies. The best kind of kill though is the one the enemy does not see coming. If facing an individual, Ezio can quietly kill using his hidden blade, throwing knives, or the Crossbow. ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ W A L K T H R O U G H [4.0] ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 1: Peace at Last [4.1] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O----------------------O |Memory 1: Mass Exodus | |======================O |Follow Mario | O=============O For those just entering the Assassin's Creed world the game begins with a quick synopsis of the story. That includes a brief button press sequence where square should be repeatedly tapped. The ANIMUS pulls Desmond away from his ancestor (netting you a trophy) and we gain control of Ezio in the same position as the end of Assassin's Creed 2. Move forward to activate another cinematic Ezio's uncle Mario appears. Experiment with Eagle Vision by holding Triangle. Move to the wall and initiate a climb by pressing R1 and X. Move to the top of the wall and listen to the conversation between Ezio and Mario. When the talk is over follow Mario to the next cinematic. Push you way through the monks and continue to follow Mario. He leads Ezio to a door and states we should be ready to fight. Fend off the guards on the other side by attacking with Square, Kicking with X, grabbing with Circle, and countering with a well timed combination of R1 and Square. After the battle Mario takes off again. The objective remains to follow Ezio's uncle through the town. As he turns a corner down a narrow alley be prepared to fight a couple of guards. Mario then moves to the rooftops. Climb after him and Ezio will move gracefully from roof to roof if you press and hold R1 and X. Once Mario exits the rooftops, more guards attack. Dispatch them quickly then continue behind Mario. He leads Ezio to the top of a tower and a cinematic. As the ANIMUS changes the scene, read the notes on screen for gameplay tips. O---------------------O |Memory 2: Homecoming | |============================================================================O |Accompany Mario to the Villa Auditore after completing the four day ride to | |Monteriggioni | O============================================================================O Ezio is now on horseback and still following Mario. Once Ezio reunites with his sister Claudia inside Monteriggioni, three memory markers appear on the mini- map. The closest one is behind the tailor. O--------------O |Memory 3: R&R | |==================================================O |Help the beautiful woman carry her box of flowers | O==================================================O A lady is having trouble with a crate of flowers. Press Triangle to talk to her then circle to lift the box. Carry the following behind the lady. Listen to the interesting conversation between the "romantic" Ezio and damsel in distress. Once the crate is delivered move to the marker just outside the gate. O-------------------------O |Memory 4: Horsing Around | |===================================================O |Return Mario's favorite horse to the stable master | O===================================================O Ezio finds a man that is fearful of punishment from Mario. Help the man by locating the lost horse. It will race by as indicated by a blue marker on the mini-map. Race over to the horse and press Circle to mount. Ride it back to the stables to end the mission. The final marker appears to be outside the gates but in fact is on the large wall protecting the town. O--------------------------O |Memory 5: Target Practice | |==============================================================O |Find the Engineer to repair the cannons so they can be tested | O==============================================================O Move back into the town limits and find the nearby lift to the left. Once on the roof find a second lift that will raise Ezio to the top of the wall. Find the men near the cannon. It is not working properly. Move to the blue marker on the mini-map to find the engineer that installed the weapon. He is "resting" inside a tower on the town's wall. Once found follow the engineer back to the cannon. After the cannon is repaired, practice firing it. Move to the cannon and press Circle to activate it. A light circle with a vertical line appears on screen. This allows Ezio to aim his shot. Destroy five of the targets below then move to the villa and enter. O------------------O |Memory 6: Reunion | |===========================================================O |Join Caterina Sforza, Machiavelli, and others in the Villa | O===========================================================O When the cinematic ends, move up stairs and enter the room with the shiny door. After a delightful "cleansing", Ezio and company are rudely interrupted by a cannonball tearing through the room. O-------------------O |Memory 7: Vilified | |===========================================================================O |Climb the south wall and defend the city with cannons until all villagers | |have escaped | O===========================================================================O Race through Monteriggioni to reach the town's wall. Begin to climb the ladder only to have it destroyed. Continue up rubble and go left to locate the cannon. The goal is to destroy the enemy cannons to buy time for the townspeople to escape. If the town is destroyed before the citizen evacuate its restart from checkpoint. The key is to fire the cannon between the tightly group enemy artillery destroying multiple targets. Move from right to left destroying the cannons. I stopped in the center and fired three shots at the large wall-like structure "charging" the town before moving to the cannons on the left. Before I had the opportunity to destroy all of those cannons a cinematic destroys Ezio's weapon. Move to the other cannon and continue to fire. Once the citizens have escaped the battle moves to another portion of the wall. Ezio must fight back the invading soldiers using his sword. Once they are dealt with two larger more heavily armored enemies appear. Use the kick function (X) during the fight to break their guard then attack. O-------------------------O |Memory 8: Emergency Exit | |===================================================================O |Retreat through the tunnels under the Villa with Maria and Claudia | O===================================================================O The scene shifts to Ezio's uncle below. The cinematic ends and Ezio has help. Fight through the enemies with the aid of your comrades to the Villa. Claudia is under attack. Defeat the nearby soldiers and follow her to the back of the Villa killing as many enemies as you can along the way. Run down the stairs to reunite with Ezio's mom and Claudia. The first memory sequence is complete. The game shifts away from Ezio and to Desmond. Once the cinematics end follow the apparition to an alternate entrance. The lights will come on. Desmond and Lucy can now continue down the corridor. More apparitions appear. Pull the lever next to the gate so Lucy can pass. Once she is across climb the wall and continue forward until you reunite. Move deeper into the tunnel until Lucy thinks the wall is not climbable. Use a duo of lifts following the tunnel path until Desmond and Lucy arrive at another gate. Pull the lever and this time the gate opens allowing Lucy to pass. She finds a switch that opens a door above. Climb onto the crates and up the wall. Jump to the distant ledge and find the apparition. Hold any button to release a platform for Lucy. Jump into the water (thats right Master Assassin Altair could not swim, but Desmond can) and use the "ladder" Lucy provides to reach the next area. Climb the boards next to Lucy and shimmy to Desmond's left. Drop below and pull the lever. Move to the next lift and rise. The bridge is out and the gap is to great to jump. Lucy has an idea though. Her plan worked. Further into the tunnel the duo arrive at a set of stairs leading to a door. Ignore the stairs and enter the hole in the wall. Find the next lever above and release a bridge for Lucy. Throw her again. Then jump across. Move down the ladder and up the subsequent wall to activate another lever for Lucy. Is it just me or are we doing all the work here. One final girl toss and Desmond has arrived at the sanctuary. Go up the stairs and activate Eagle vision to see some numbers on the wall. Press any button to open the door for the others. Go up the stairs to exit the Villa. To provide enough juice to properly operate the ANIMUS Desmond needs to find and reconnect 4 Power Rerouters. The first is located next to the door just exited. Now continue around the building to the right and pass by the large covered drain. The next power box is on the building at the bottom of the stairs. The next two are below the main entrance to the Villa. One is at the bottom of the stairs on the Bank while the last is just by the bank across from a small red car. The ANIMUS is now ready for operations. Desmond has the option to talk to each of his friends before entering the device. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 2: A Wilderness of Tigers [4.2] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* o--------------------------o |Memory 1: As Good As New… | |=============================================================================o |Find a doctor to heal the wounds from the Villa attack, then climb the church| |tower to locate the Mausoleo di Augusto | |=============================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Do not drop below 1 health square.| o========================================================o Once Ezio enters the ANIMUS, we get a quick preview of the Virtual Training program. Try to kill as many consecutive enemies as possible. After more ANIMUS discussion we are back in control of Ezio. The effects of the raid on Monterggioni are still with Ezio. Move down the stairs behind the building at Ezio's back and find the Doctor. Once healed climb to the top of the church and press Triangle to synchronize/open the map. The leap of faith places Ezio in a hay stack next to some guards that have trouble on their minds. Follow them and defeat them when they stop. o------------------------o |Memory 2: Well Executed | |============================================================================o |Il Carnefice lives on the hill overlooking the gallows. Locate and kill him.| |============================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Kill your target with the hidden blade.| o-------------------------------------------------------------o A new memory marker appears on the mini-map. A man is mourning the death of a loved one. It appears she was killed by the rope. Il Carnefice has warned the man to leave the woman hanging or face the consequences. Move to the top of the hill and approach the target. Move to the roof of the building and activate Eagle Vision. Il Carnefice is the one outlined in yellow. Hit L1 to lock onto the target. Watch for the Assassinate option to appear in the upper right corner. Once it does you are over your target and can leap down for the kill. With Il Carnefice dead the nearby guards will attack.Pull out a sword and defend yourself until the guards are dead or the mission is complete and Ezio can walk away. Alternatively, Ezio can attempt to escape and become anonymous by hiding. Either way the mission will end when there is no more danger to the Assassin. o-------------------------o |Memory 3: New Man in Town| |=======================================================================o |Accompany Machiavelli through Rome, encountering dangers along the way.| |=============================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Throw the Borgia Captain into the scaffold to kill him.| o-----------------------------------------------------------------------------o Next, meet up with Machiavelli. As you follow Machiavelli, he stops in front of a Blacksmith and gives Ezio some money to purchase some equipment. Buy the Stiletto and Roman Spaulders. Machiavelli will begin to move again continue to follow and listen until led to a Borgia stronghold. Inside the area of Borgia influence there will be a captain. The goal is to kill the Borgia captain inside. Once Ezio enters an area of red like this, the guards will immediately be suspicious. Climb the wall at the front gate and look for numerous birds flying overhead. Ascend the tower the birds circle and utilize Eagle Vision to open more of the map. Leap from the perch to the hay below. The Borgia captain is in sight. He is protected by a couple of guards while he paces under an enclosed arch. Jump from the hay and eliminate the two guards quickly. A couple more enemies that are on patrol may appear as well. Once it is just Ezio and the Captain, attempt to grab the enemy (tap Circle) and push him into the nearby scaffolding. Once the Captain is dead return to Machiavelli. Though you have defeated some Borgia support the message is not clear. Climb back up to the tower and set it a blaze by entering the room at the top and pressing circle. With the mission complete walk over to the stable and examine it. This renovation will be at no cost. o------------------------------o | Memory 4: Easy Come, Easy Go | |=========================================o |Accompany Machiavelli to the Campidoglio | |============================================o |Full Synchronization: Don't lose any health | o--------------------------------------------o Now that horses are available from this stable, mount up and follow Machiavelli. During the subsequent cinematic some of Ezio's possessions are "misplaced". Race after the thief and when close press R1 and Circle to tackle him. Ezio automatically retrieves the stolen goods. Move toward the marker on the mini-map to reunite with Machiavelli. o---------------------------o | Memory 5: Who's Got Mail? | |==========================================================================o |Rendezvous with Machiavelli's contact and retrieve the letter he carriers.| |==========================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Catch the Borgia courier in under 1 minute.| o-----------------------------------------------------------------o Follow Machiavelli to the Colosseum. Upon arrival a cinematic shows the contact we are looking for being hassled by Borgia guards. Fight off the guards then immediately give chase to the courier in possession of the important mail. Tackle the courier as soon as possible then return to Machiavelli (mini-map marker). o-----------------------o |Memory 6: Crepi Il Lupo| |===========================================================o |Deliver the letter to Machiavelli near the Terme di Traiano| |===========================================================o |Full Synchronization: Don't lose any health.| o--------------------------------------------o While attempting to deliver the letter Ezio walks into a trap. The Followers of Romulus attack in large numbers. Fend off all the enemies and enter their lair just ahead. The entrance is a small covered opening in the nearby wall. o----------------------------o |Memory 7: The Halls of Nerov| |=============================o |Locate the shrine of Romulus | |==========================================================o |Full Synchronization: Complete the memory within 8 minutes| o----------------------------------------------------------o Climb the broken column directly in front of Ezio. At the top to a push off side jump to the right, then jump to the wall and move right. Find the lever and interact with it. The central pool begins to fill with water. Use the wall to shimmy to the opposite corner and pull a second lever to add more water to the central pool. Return to the initial broken column that Ezio climbed. This time at the top perform the push off jump to the left. At the top of this next column jump to the broken platform ahead to find two more levers at opposite corners. Each of these levers also add more water to the central pool. So much water in fact, that when all four spouts are releasing water the weak floor of the pool collapses. Drop through the floor and enter the the open gate to the south (its the only path that is not a dead end). Once through the gate go right and climb onto the pedestal. From the pedestal Ezio should be able to jump to the bricks near the ceiling on the wall. Move to the right and exit above the gate. Continue to the right until Ezio can perform a push jump across the open arch. Swing over the next gate and find the next pedestal to climb. Jump to the wooden beam then swing over to the next. Jump over the gate using the hanging ornament to swing to the next beam. Jump across and swing over the next gate. Ezio has arrived at his goal, so activate the lever next to the door. The ground is blazing so the path across must be aerial. Look for a broken column to the right and climb up. Push jump to the central statue. Now jump over the statue's head to the beam on the other side of the room. Climb the wall and move to Ezio's right. When across from the next statue push jump to it's extended arm. Run across the arm and jump to the opposite wall. Move a little to Ezio's left and drop below. Find the next broken column. Use it to reach the climbable portion of wall on the left. Pull up to the platform and run up the "steps" to jump onto the ledge ahead. Continue around and push jump to the other side. Turn the corner and push jump again to the pole. Swing to the broken blocks of stone and leap over the gate to view a cinematic. When the cinematic ends, find the broken column along the wall on the other side of the room. Climb it to enter over the gate. Move around the corner and locate the pedestal near the next gate. Climb it and jump to the blocks on the wall. Then push jump to the opposite wall and head toward the gate. As Ezio moves through the opening over the gate part of the wall will crumble. At this time he states, "Now I can get back up here." Continue around to the rings and climb to the top one. Push jump to the central column. Climb it and move to Ezio's left. Push jump to the wooden pole then swing over the next gate. Ezio should now be entering the area we saw during the cinematic. On the distant wall sits a throne. Move to it and grab the ledge over it. Move to the left and climb the column attached to the second wooden beam. Continue moving in this direction until you reach the long stone walkway Ezio can run across. At the end of the stone walkway created by the arch connecting two columns will be another wooden beam to the right attached to the primary wall of the room. Jump to this beam and continue to move around. Ezio will jump to a column that breaks. This broken column will make it easier to reach this point if Ezio falls. Grab the outer wall and move to Ezio's left. Using the beams ahead arrive at the second balcony (its broken). From this balcony jump towards the center landing on the stone walkway created by another arch. Jump to the next column and it will topple. Ezio will say, "Perfect, a route up if I fall." Leap straight ahead and move toward Ezio's left. The goal is the balcony above where the throne sits. Inside this room will be several treasure chests to loot providing an adequate supply of money and tomatoes. The chest in the back- center of the room contains the Scroll of Romulus 1. Scroll of Romulus 1 I leave my family's armor here, one of the finest sets ever made. May you who finds it receive strength in battle. -Change of Handwriting- We have taken it and set it back, behind the iron door. Six keys unlock it, spread amongst our brothers. It shall be said to come from Romulus, and they will worship it. Exit through the now open ceiling hatch to finish the memory. The information in Ezio's possession is encrypted. Follow Machiavelli to hopefully find some assistance. Enter the tunnels to fast travel to Tiber Island Hideout. As you can see most of the other options require renovations before they are available. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 3: The Fighter, the Lover, the Thief [4.3] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Three new memory markers appear on the mini-map. They can be identified by location in regards to Ezio's hideout when looking at the map in the pause menu. The three markers are located to the North, East, and South. o----------------------o |Memory 1: Double Agent| |=====================================================================o |Spy on Machiavelli with La Volpe and persuade La Volpe to rejoin the | |Brotherhood. | |==========================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Do not be detected while reducing Notoriety. Remain | |undetected until rejoining La Volpe at the Thieves Guild. | o--------------------------------------------------------------------------o Head toward the marker on the mini-map outlined in yellow to meet La Volpe at the market. He is not on the market grounds. Instead he hides on the roof of a nearby building. During the cinematic, a group of thieves attack the Borgia. A young thief is injured and in danger of death. Drop below and attack the archers to save the young thief. With the archers eliminated Ezio and Claudio must reunite with La Volpe. Blend in with the crowd to avoid the guards and walk toward the marker. Claudio is now safe but Ezio is far from it. The local guards are still on high alert. We must lose our notoriety. Just as in Assassin's Creed 2 there are actions Ezio can take to reduce notoriety. They include removing Wanted posters, bribing heralds, and killing officials. The game instructs you to perform one of each of the tasks in order to fully remove Ezio's notoriety. There is a poster, herald, and official nearby that will allow for completion of the task. Alternatively, you can repeat any one of the notoriety reducers so long as three are performed. Now that Ezio is anonymous again move to the blue marker and speak with La Volpe. Talk to the architect to renovate the Thieves Guild. The inn like appearance will provide the perfect cover. Don't you wish all contractors worked so quickly. o------------------------------------------o |Memory 2: Between a Rock and a Hard Place | |=============================================================================O |Eliminate the Borgia Captain sending his troops to attack the Barracks so the| |mercenaries can focus entirely on the French assault | |=============================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Kill only the Borgia Captain.| o---------------------------------------------------o Next we will move to the Eastern marker. Bartolomeo D'Alviano could use some assistance. Once the introduction to the mission ends a Borgia Captain will be running away. Ignore everyone else and chase after the Captain. As Ezio approaches the fleeing Borgia be prepared to attack. Eliminate the Captain and move toward the tower. The tower is well at the front. The rear of the tower accessed via the river is not guarded at all. Jump into the water to avoid the guards and climb to the top of the tower. Ignite the tower then return to D' Alyiano and renovate the barracks to end the mission. O----------------------------------O |Memory 3: High-Stakes Negotiation | |=============================================================================o |Deliver the money necessary to save the mistress of the Rosa in Fiore from | |the slave traders holding her captive | |=============================================================================o |Full Synchronization: Do not swim | O----------------------------------O It appears that we need 2500 in currency to free the captive. After raiding the Shrine of Romulus it is likely Ezio already has enough. If more funds are required Ezio can move through town picking pockets (hold X as you walk by civilians) until enough money is obtained. Head toward the marker to meet with the slave traders. Ezio provides the funds but the slave traders do not fulfill their end of the bargain (we can't be too surprised they are slave traders after all). Eliminate everyone on the ship then return to the Rosa in Fiore. The marker is on a balcony near the roof of the building. After the cinematic, talk to the architect to renovate the Rosa Fiore with 2500 f taken from the slave traders. The architect is at the front of the building. Renovating the brothel will allow Courtesans to have a more prominent presence in Rome, aiding in the fight against the Borgia. O----------------------------------O |Memory 4: Collective Intelligence| |=========================================================================O |Discover the location of the Apple of Eden, Caterina Sforza, Cesare, and | |Rodrigo Borgia | O=========================================================================O Machiavelli has the names of several Templar agents. It appears (at least as of now) La Volpe was wrong. Machiavelli is an ally. Once the meeting of the minds ends talk to the architect standing inside the hideout. He will briefly explain the renovation process. This completes Memory Sequence 3. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 4: Den of Thieves [4.4] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O---------------------------O |Memory 1: Castello Crasher | |==================================================================O |Infiltrate Castel Sant'Angelo and assassinate Cesare and Rodgrigo.| |==================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not be detected| O----------------------------------------O There is a bridge to the left that Ezio could cross in an attempt to reach the Castel Sant'Angelo. It is likely that path would arouse the suspicion of the guards. Instead move straight ahead and go down the ladder. Jump across the boards sticking out of the water to reach the structure's outer wall. You should be able to see a white spiral marker on the platform attached to the wall. Jump onto the wall and move toward the platform. Stay behind one of the taller blocks to avoid the patrolling guards sight. As the guard moves away from Ezio toward the left jump over the wall and enter the hay. Wait there patiently. Watch the movement of the guards. The nearby patrolling guard will eventually investigate the hay. Target him with L1 then as he approaches wait for the Assassinate option to be available. Once it is attack, killing the guard silently and without detection. Exit the hay and target the guard that patrols the back of the area. Hit him with a throwing knife then hide behind the central column. Target the final guard (near the ladder) and eliminate him with another throwing knife. Loot the guard's bodies to retrieve the knives thrown then climb the ladder. Listen to the conversation below, then climb the wall to Ezio's right. At the top assassinate the guard near the ledge. Two more guards will patrol the area to the right. One is visible on a nearby roof while the second is around the corner to the right. Climb over the wall and fortunately we are moving to the left away from the two guards. Around the next corner Ezio will see four Borgia having a conference on the walkway. Move over the ledge to the next marker to avoid them. On the balcony directly below Ezio a guard will patrol the area. Target the enemy and wait for the Assassinate option to be active. Leap down and eliminate the guard. Find the next marker on the mini-map and look in that direction as you move across the wooden beams. You should notice two stationary guards on the ground and a duo of patrolmen on the nearby rooftops. Hang on the edge of the roof the nearest guard patrols. He will approach the edge giving Ezio a great opportunity for an assassination. As the guard falls to his death this pulls the stationary ground Borgia to the bodies location. Pull up onto the roof and move to the corner out of site of the 2nd rooftop guard. Climb to the marker then eliminate the remaining patrolman. Cross the rope to the wall. Climb it initially to the left only to gain access to a higher set of hand grips. Once as high as Ezio an go begin to move back to the right. The next marker is on a small roof near a window. Once there Ezio overhears a conversation inside. When the talk ends continue around the outside of the wall, cautiously jumping from pole to pole. At this height one missed jump is instant death. When you get to the last wooden beam a message about "Catch Back" will appear on screen. Perform the maneuver by tapping then holding circle. Ezio should fall and grab hold of the wooden beam below during his descent. If successful, Ezio will be hanging from the beam as the gate ahead opens. Pull up onto the wooden beam and grab the hand holds on the wall. Move to the right and utilize the Catch Back move to lower Ezio then continue to the right until he can climb up to the next two markers. At the second marker another cinematic begins. Continue the climb up through the subsequent markers until arriving on the roof. Look to the left to locate the patrolling guard. Take him out (assassination or throwing knife) then continue to the other side of the roof. Another guard is patrolling here. When he turns his back eliminate him as well. Look in the courtyard below for another Borgia patrol. This guard can be killed with an assassination or throwing knife as well. Move through the open door and down the stairs. Take the only right in the hall. At the bottom of the stairs be prepared for a single guard to pass by. Quickly assassinate or toss a knife to go undetected. Move through the checkpoint and up the stairs. Two guards are walking toward the cell containing Caterina quickly eliminate them to enter the next memory. O-----------------------O |Memory 2: Femme Fatale | |=======================================================O |Obtain the key to Caterina's cell from Lucrezia Borgia | |==============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not lose more than 10 health squares | O--------------------------------------------------------------O At the beginning of this Memory, you should get a message about new e-mails in your inbox. You have the option to leave the Animus to check the messages if you like. Desmond can even get more story details by talking to the others hiding out at the Villa. When back in the ANIMUS (or if you never left), move back down stairs away from the cells. When you arrive at the part where you can continue down the stairs or go up, go up. At the top turn right (away from the door you entered from) and go up the stairs. Below you here Lucrezia talking with a mail suitor. Climb the wall away from where they are sitting and near the top the pigeons will fly away startling the would be couple. Move forward and confront Lucrezia. She will scream for some guards to protect her. They will enter but are no match for Ezio's blade. When the initial group is defeated another set will enter. Defeat them all then approach Lucrezia. Press Circle to restrain her. Ezio will pick her up and hold his hidden blade close to her throat. On occasion she may flail and set herself free. Just chase her down and restrain her again. With her in arms begin the journey back to Caterina's cell. Along the way more guards will attack. Simply drop Lucrezia and fight them off. When the path is clear grab her again to continue. It can be very annoying to release Lucrezia to defeat guards once you arrive at the stairs, because you will have to chase her all the way to the beginning of the trip only to have her fight free a couple times before you arrive at the release point again. I did not have a problem retrieving her during any of the fights so as of now I'm not sure if she can actually escape or if she would just circle the starting point as she did before. O-------------------------------O |Memory 3: The Burdens We Carry | |================================================================O |Escape from the Castello with Caterina and head for the stables | |================================================================O |Full Syncrhonization: Do not be detected | O-----------------------------------------O As the memory begins two guards approach the cells. One will stop at the top of the stairs while the other stays at the bottom of the stairs. Run to the side of the door way and place Caterina on the ground. Assassinate the near guard with the hidden blade then either race to the second guard for more of the same or toss a knife at him. Retrieve Caterina and move forward. As you reach the marker you should see a guard race by. He stops at the bottom of the stairs. Drop Caterina then go assassinate the guard. The path diverges. Ezio has the option of going right or left. Unfortunately, a guard patrols both paths and has a chance to see Ezio. Before returning to Caterina clear out the two guards that are walking up the opposite paths. Ezio has two options to take them out. Option 1 is to quickly eliminate the guard to the left then race back to the stairs and wait for the guard on the right. It is likely Ezio will be seen but not detected by the second guard. Option 2 is safer. After killing the guard at the bottom of the stairs wait for the other patrol to cross by each other then sneak behind them for the executions. Pick up Caterina then move down the stairs turning right at the bottom. There will be a doorway at the bottom of the ramp just before you arrive at the closed door. Inside the room is an opening in the floor protected by a single guard with his back turned. I believe you should know what to do. Move to the opening and Ezio will "assist Caterina to the bottom. Once in the hay watch for and an approaching enemy. Assassinate him from the hay to avoid detection. Exit and stand hidden at the next doorway. A guard will pass by. When he turns his back to leave step out and kill him quietly. Enter the hall and turn right at the end. Ezio should see a single guard with his back turned standing in front of the path out. Eliminate him and go outside. Two gates block the path out. If you carry Caterina to the gates the two cranks that open the barricades will be revealed. Some of the guards from this point in may not be present if you were thorough about eliminating the Borgia forces on the way in. First lets go to the right. Quietly eliminate the guard near the crank then interact with it to open the gate. Move to the other side watching for a guard on a roof above the crank's location. The guard is easily eliminated by climbing the side of the building. Turn the crank to open the second gate. Now return to Caterina so you can exit the Castello. O----------------------------O |Memory 4: Guardian of Forli | |=======================================================================O |Escort Caterina on horseback as she flees from the Castel Sant'Angelo. | |=======================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Achieve a kill streak of at least 5 guards. | O------------------------------------------------------------------O Ride out behind Caterina. Once across the bridge Ezio dismounts to provide Caterina with enough time to escape. Fight of the guards for the next 1:30. The best way to survive is to stay on the defensive with R1 & Square to counter an attack. Once the kill is made Ezio can shift to other enemies for one hit kills. A distraction is created by explosions at the Castel. When the cinematic ends run escape. Break the line of sight of the guards by climbing a building or turning a quick corner. Once the line of sight is broken check out the mini- map for a hiding spot. Once hidden the memory ends. Exit the hiding spot and reduce your notoriety. O----------------------------O |Memory 5: Man of the People | |==========================================================================O |Fight with two citizens of Rome against the oppression of the Borgia and | |recruit them for the Assassins Guild. | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not lose more than 5 health squares. | O--------------------------------------------------------------O Ezio knows how to start a revolt. If you want those in charge out of power then go to the people. If the people are on your side the odds of victory are much greater. Two new markers appear on the map. At each of the locations a citizen of Roma is under duress. Help each potential recruit by eliminating the small group of Borgia guards causing the problem. Once the guards are gone talk to the citizen and they will join the cause. O--------------------------O |Memory 6: Serial Offender | |==========================================================O |Malfatto hunts girls near the Tiber. Locate and kill him. | |====================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill your target using the Assassin Recruits. | O--------------------------------------------------------------------O At the next memory marker a young woman is distraught over the loss of a friend. Malfatto enjoys preying on the women of Roma. Follow the cues from the Courtesans to locate the target. When Malfatto is in sight (red marker on the mini-map) target him and call in the Assassins by tapping L2. The recruit will perform the killing for Ezio and we receive full synchronization for this memory. O----------------------O |Memory 7: Human Cargo | |========================================================O |Find Silvestro Sabbatini, kill him, and free his slaves | |====================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill your target using the Assassin Recruits. | O--------------------------------------------------------------------O A young boy is at the docks crying. His mom is being taken away. Ezio agrees to help. Move toward the green marker on the map. As Ezio approaches the marker disappears and a green circle appears. Somewhere inside the range of the circle is the target. Activate Eagle Vision to find Sabbatini. He will be indicated by a yellow outline. Once he is found follow him to the captured slaves while remaining undetected. Do not follow the target too closely. Several times during the trip he will stop and turn around as if looking for danger. If Ezio is spotted and Sabbatini becomes suspicious the mission will be compromised. When Sabatinni stops for good to talk with a woman, target him and call in the Assassin recruit. Once the slave trader is dead the surrounding Borgia will attack. Help the recruits by killing the guards. In order to manage your recruits, Ezio must find a pigeon coop. Fortunately, there just happens to be one nearby (green marker). Move to the coop and interact with it. You should get some messages: -You just recruited a new potential Assassin, Primo Penna has been added to your Assassins Guild. -You have been awarded a new Assassin signal. A new Signal is awarded for the first, fourth, and sixth Recruit added to the Assassins Guild. Signals are subtracted when Recruits die or are sent away on contracts. -You just received a new potential Assassin, Bettina Aliotti has been added to your Assassins Guild. O--------------------------------O |Memory 8: An Unexpected Visitor | |=============================================O |Discover the source of the mysterious voice. | O=============================================O Once Ezio reaches this memory marker, a whispering voice requests his presence "Over Here". There is a box around the corner that will be highlighted. Approach it and talk with a potential ally that has infiltrated the Borgia. Leonardo Da Vinci is back. He draws a diagram on the nearby bench. Interact with it and a Gadgets menu will open. If you have enough money feel free to purchase whatever you like. See War Machines Section for War Plans and Outgunned. O-------------------O |Memory 9: The Plan | |=============================================================================O |Meet with Machiavelli, Claudia, La Volpe, and Caterina and propose a plan to | |defeat the Borgia. | O=============================================================================O Move to the next marker located at Ezio's hideout in the Centro District. Once the Cinematic is completed view the map on the table for the option of attempting some Assassin Contracts. Exit the hideout to complete the Memory and Memory Sequence 4. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 5 The Banker [4.5] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O---------------------------O |Memory 1: Escape From Debt | |=========================================================================O |Visit Senator Egidio Troche on the Campidoglio to ascertain the Banker's | |location. | |=========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not be detected while escorting the senator.| O---------------------------------------------------------------------O Visit the Rosa in Fiore and talk with Ezio's mom to begin the memory. Claudia at the nearby counter will initiate the next step. Exit the brothel and head toward the green marker. Once there move up the stairs and look in the alley to the right of the large building marked with a feather. After the cinematic move in to aid the senator. The death of the three Borgia guards will initiate a cinematic. Walk the senator to the new marker attempting to avoid any guards along the way. If you happen to be detected simply kill the Borgia before they kill the senator. Ezio can actually have the senator wait at a certain location, scout the area, then call for him. I have not figured out a path that will lead to a successful Full Synchronization. As of the initial posting of this guide. My strategy was to simply fight off any guards encountered. O---------------------------O |Memory 2: Follow the Money | |============================================================O |Follow the Senator as he delivers his payment to the Banker | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not be detected and do not touch the ground while | |tailing the Senator | O---------------------------------------------------------------------------O In order to access this memory, Ezio must have 3000f in his possession. Once you have the money talk to the senator to start the mission. Travel to the marker to witness the Senator handing the money to some Borgia guards. As Ezio proceeds he will encounter some rooftop guards. Keep an eye out for red dots on the mini-map as a warning to their presence. Ezio must also keep a relatively close distance from the guards with the money. If he falls too far behind a timer appears on screen. You have that amount of time to close the gap or risk restarting the mission. After eavesdropping on the meeting their will be a guard to eliminate on the very next rooftop. The next guard will not appear until after the money passes through the courtyard with the statue. Be patient here the guard is often at the opposite end of the roof. Being careless here can frequently cause detection. Once by this guard the next one is just over the next large roof. The money will then be carried near the docks but not reach them. Instead, they turn back into the city and pass through a second courtyard with a large statue. The next guard will be shortly after this. The rest of the way should be fairly safe until the group reaches its final destination. When the cinematic ends the money is being moved inside the Pantheon. Go to the rear of the structure and climb to the top. Find the marker to continue the memory. The goal is to kill the guard below without being detected. Step over the ledge and hang off the side. Look for the small yellow nodules that can be used for hand grips. Climb down slowly dropping only when safe. Once Ezio reaches the floor walk up to the guard and stab him with the hidden blade. The memory ends. O-------------------------O |Memory 3: When in Rome… | |===========================================================================O |Disguised as the Chest Carrier, lead the guards to the Banker's location | |without being detected. Listen to their reactions to determine the correct | |route. | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Arrive at your destination in less than 3 minutes. | O-------------------------------------------------------------------------O Ezio in disguise should walk ahead of the remaining guards. In this mission you will be leading the way to the Banker. Of course, we have no idea who the banker is or where he is located. Take verbal cues from the guards to know you are going the correct direction. If you hear any statements that seem to question your authority or chosen path stop, turn around and try a different route. O---------------------O |Memory 4: In and Out | |============================================================O |Follow the money to get to the Banker, kill him and escape. | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the Banker from a bench without being detected. | O---------------------------------------------------------------------------O Exit and hire the Courtesans just outside and walk them through the streets in pursuit of the guards carrying the chest. If you are detected the memory ends and Ezio must restart at a checkpoint. Hiring the Courtesans will allow Ezio to move through the streets undetected by the Borgia. At the end of the street there will be a line of guards that will be difficult to pass. Ask the girls to distract these guards then move to the other side of the street to hire another set of Courtesans. While the line of guards are distracted use these Courtesans to pass by. Pause at the bottom of the stairs to read the message that the chest is changing hands. Continue to use this set of Courtesans as cover until reaching the next. Soon after passing by these new Courtesans a cinematic will reveal the Banker. When the cinematic ends hire the new set of ladies and enter the area protected by the next set of guards. Use the ladies to follow the Banker. If the ladies ladies leave you and Borgia are near, do not forget how useful calling in your Assassins can be. The strike quickly and usually without detection. If you successfully follow the Banker you are rewarded with another cinematic. The cinematic ends and Ezio is next to a wagon of hay. Directly in front of the wagon is a guard. I think you can guess what the best approach is (here is a hint do not walk by the guard). Borgia are stationed all around the courtyard. There is a group of Courtesans in the corner to the left but they can be difficult to walk to. Instead climb the wall to the left of the hay wagon. Once on the other side move into the courtyard and quickly hire the ladies for cover. Move to the south and find a bench where Ezio can sit. With the ladies hiding Ezio it should be simple. While sitting on the bench wait for the Banker to pass by then perform a stealth assassination. When the assassination cinematic ends, leap over the wall behind the bench and shimmy to the right. Locate the hay below. Once it is found, climb back up to the ledge and utilize a Leap of Faith. Exit the hay and climb to the roof of the small building to the left. Move across its roof and once Ezio exits the yellow circle on the mini-map the memory ends. O----------------------O |Memory 5: Paper Trail | |===========================================================================O |Claudia's girls have stolen the Banker's money, but there's trouble at the | |Rosa in Fiore | O===========================================================================O There was trouble at the Rosa in Fiore but nothing Claudia could not handle. This ends Sequence 5. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 6 The Baron de Valois [4.6] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O---------------------O |Memory 1: Gatekeeper | |============================================================================O |Prevent the French troops from seizing the Barracks by lower the three gates| |leading inside | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not take any damage | O---------------------------------------------O The French are charging the fort. The barracks are in danger. There are three entrances to the area. Move to each of the three gates and fight off the French located there. When an opening presents itself move to the gate control and hold Circle. As the gate falls run to the next control to lower each successive gate. A cinematic will show that the French leader has a prisoner. Ride with Bartolomeo to the french fortress. Bartolomeo seems to have no fear. Ezio has a plan and requests Bartolomeo and his men fall back to the barracks O----------------------O |Memory 2: French Kiss | |=============================================================================O |Orchestrate the plan to fool the Baron de Valois by assassinating twenty | |French soldiers in the Roman Ruins, allowing Bartolomeo's men to steal their | |armor | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not be detected | O-----------------------------------------O The plan is pure genius. The tricky part though is obtaining the armor especially if you are going for the Full Synchronization. One of the locations is slightly to the north near a tunnel entrance. This area is full of French armor. Hire the band of mercenaries near the barracks and head to the battle site. Have the mercenaries attack and they will do most of the damage. Once they are finished all Ezio has to do is kill the remaining enemies without being seen. If the mercenaries stop fighting without dying simply instruct them to attack someone else. O-----------------------O |Memory 3: Trojan Horse | |============================================================================O |Reach the French fortress at Castra Praetoria before sunrise, while leading | |the disguised mercenaries. Kill any French troops at checkpoints along the | |way before they raise the alarm | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not lose any health squares. | O------------------------------------------------------O Move with Bartolomeo and his disguised mercenaries through the countryside. The men will encounter checkpoints along the way. Once they arrive at a french checkpoint a timer will appear on screen. Be sure to eliminate the three guards before the timer hits zero so the memory can continue. In fact Ezio does not really have to follow the group. Once the red target markers appear on the mini map you can get a head start by running to the location and eliminating the enemies before the mercenaries even arrive. At the fortress gate the ruse has succeed and entry is allowed. Continue through the fortress until the next cinematic. Once it ends move to the top of the stairs and eliminate the Baron's men. When they are dead this memory ends and the next begins. O--------------------O |Memory 4: Au Revoir | |=================================================O |Overtake the Baron de Valois and assassinate him | |=====================================================O |Full Synchronization: Finish in less than 5 minutes | O-----------------------------------------------------O Climb the nearest building and move across the rooftops eliminating french guards in the towers. At the end of the path will be four men protecting a gate defeat them and interact with the gate controls. Once through the gate a short cinematic takes place. The goal is to kill the Baron without being seen. Move to the left and take out the guard in the small tower. Move behind the tower and look in the distance. There should be a guard near the wall patrolling a small porch. Move to this guard and eliminate him quietly. On this side of the structure where the Baron is hiding, another guard will patrol the entry way. Wait until this guard walks toward the front of the building and enter. To Ezio's immediate left he will find a stationary guard that he can kill quickly. As you move by this guard other frenchmen will be alerted to your presence. If you move quickly to the Baron, Ezio will not be detected. Assassinate the piece of trash. Bartolomeo's wife is safe. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 7 The Key to the Castello [4.7] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O----------------------------O |Memory 1: Patching the Leak | |=============================================================================O |Kill the attackers to ensure they do not discover the location of the Thieves| |Guild, then accompany La Volpe to rescue the thieves in danger | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not drop below 5 health squares. | O----------------------------------------------------------O The resistance has a leak and its time to do some repairs. Exit the bar and fight off the attacking Borgia. There is no need to utilize stealth just kill all the enemies that appear before La Volpe and the thieves take too much damage. After the fight ride with La Volpe to a thief in trouble. Protect your ally be defeating the Borgia. Continue following La Volpe and defeating the guards that will attack the thieves. After each thief is saved more information is obtained O--------------------------------O |Memory 2: Calling All Stand-Ins | |============================================================================O |Tail Micheletto to the play's location. While following him, discover a way | |for the Assassin Recruits to infiltrate the play. | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Use Assassin Recruits to assassinate your targets | O------------------------------------------------------------------------O Run toward the eastern gate to located Micheletto. He is inside the green circle on the mini-map. Following the cinematic get on your horse and tail the target. As usual, stay at a reasonable distance. Ezio does not want to get too close (he will be discovered) or too far away (he will lose Micheletto). When Micheletto stops, dismount and search the area marked on the mini-map for his men. The trick is following him through the ruins without arousing suspicion. The best route is to jump onto the broken columns on the left side of the entrance. Inside is a path of broken columns that Ezio can use to follow Micheletto without detection. Ezio will run out of columns to leap to. At the end of the line perform a Leap of Faith into the hay and exit. Move forward to the next stack of hay and a cinematic will play. At the end of the cinematic call in one of the Assassins you should have acquired by now to eliminate the guard ahead. Stick to the left side and jump across the columns to see a couple horses below. Mount a horse and continue to follow Micheletto. He leads Ezio to another set of ruins heavily guarded by Borgia. Take the path to the left again to reach higher ground. This time there will be guards patrolling nearby roofs as well. If you have the Crossbow it works wonders for quickly and quietly killing these guards without anyone knowing. Arrive at the central arena and circle around to one side. A cinematic will show the discussion below. Call in your Assassins again to eliminate the two Borgia below then leave the restricted area to continue tailing Micheletto. Again Micheletto stops to meet more guards. Dismount and move to the small roof to the left of where the target entered. There will be a single easily killed guard patrolling this roof. The next meeting is occurring just ahead. Active the cinematic then request another Assassination. Leave the area again and follow Micheletto on foot to the nearby play site. O---------------------------O |Memory 3: Exit Stage Right | |=============================================================================O |Without being detected, infiltrate the Colosseum to find and rescue the actor| |Pietro before he is murdered by Micheletto | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not kill anyone other than the gunmen. | O----------------------------------------------------------------O The initial climb is fairly easy. Just move to the marker and begin to climb up. There few guards that will be able to see you as long as you remain on the outer part of the Colosseum. Find the marker at the top and watch the cinematic. The location of the four gunmen will be shown on the mini-map. A timer with 5:00 also appears. Leap into the hay below just as was shown during the camera span portion of the cinematic. Jump from surface to surface until you have a visual on the first gunmen. There are multiple ways to kill the would be snipers (hidden blade, Crossbow, Assassins Guild). If you follow the path shown in the cinematic Ezio should be able to jump into a stack of hay that the sniper will walk by for the first kill. The others can be taken out by an Assassin trainee or Crossbow so you do not have to risk detection. With the snipers eliminated, drop to the backstage area below. Ezio has a wardrobe change and now must lead the disguised Assassin Recruits onto the stage. Do not head to the left near the guards. Instead move to the right around the tables to find the stage area safely. Look for the white spiral indicating your appropriate spot. It is likely the timer that appeared will be close to or under 10 seconds when you arrive. Now turn on Eagle Vision and look for a white discoloration on the ground. This is the appropriate mark for Ezio to stand at according to the play. When the other actors begin to approach your spot, turn on Eagle Vision again to find your new spot (it should be across from your current location). The actors will move one more time placing Ezio and his Assassins at the point of what ends up being a triangle. Once in place turn on Eagle Vision (if you have to) to locate Micheletto. He is the guy on stage in the black shirt (just as he said he would be). Move to him and initiate an Assassination. O-----------------------O |Memory 4: Intervention | |=============================================================================O |Save Pietro from the poison coursing through his veins by carrying him out of| |the Colosseum to the nearest doctor | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not swim | O----------------------------------O Basically ignore all of the Borgia, turn around, and exit through the back. More of Ezio's friends enter the Colosseum making it easier to slip out the back. Find the marker that signifies the doctor so Pietro can be healed. After the actor hands over the key, the resulting cinematic shows a man that Ezio remembers from the attack on the Villa. Chase after this man. Unfortunately, Ezio will meet some resistance. Call in your Assassins to deal with the Borgia that attack. You of course will not have enough Assassins to call in to take out all the guards you see so try your best to run around the enemies without getting hit. If you are hit then do not fight back instead continue to run toward the fleeing man. The focus should remain on not letting the man get away. When you get close tap circle (you should already be holing R1) to tackle the man. The cinematic shows who the traitor actually is. Race to La Volpe to discuss the matter. Even though a timer appears do not let it worry you too much. There should be plenty of time to get to La Volpe. Also do not forget the Full Synchronization condition: avoid the water. O--------------------O |Memory 5: Ascension | |=======================================================O |Claudia Auditore and the Assassins gather on the tower | O=======================================================O This memory is only cinematics used to progress the story. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 8: The Borgia [4.8] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O------------------O |Memory 1: Requiem | |============================================================================O |Breach the perimeter of Castel Sant'Angelo and confront the Pope inside the | |Papal Apartments | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not be detected | O-----------------------------------------O Peak around the corner and look for a guard. If you have the crossbow snipe him, otherwise race toward him as he turns away and use the hidden blade. Climb the ladder below the marker. At the top grab the ledge and wait for a guard to approach and turn then eliminate him. Continue down the path toward the next marker. The crossbow again will allow you to make a quick and safe kill on the guard near the next marker. Climb the tower to the next marker and look below. Someone is in a hurry to see the Pope. This area should be looking familiar from a previous mission. At the intersection take a right. There can be two to three guards on this path. There may be one patrolling near the hay stack but there should definitely be one on the roof to the left and one patrolling the open area at the end of the path. Eliminate both and climb to the roof next to the opening in the tower. A guard is patrolling this path take him out (crossbow is excellent) and look for the marker. You should be able to see a shiny door protected by a high fence. Ezio can not climb over the fence so it looks like we need to take the stairs. Grab the edge of the wall and shimmy toward the marker. As you move a guard will pass below. He will not see Ezio but to be safe you can target him and call for an Assassin. Continue to move by where the marker is until you can target the guard on the corner roof. Call for another Assassin to remove him. Drop onto a small roof across from where the fence lining the stairs ends. A guard does patrol a portion of the stairway. If he is approaching, he can easily be killed with a crossbow. Leap over to the stairs and move to the door. If you make the jump and are hanging on a black below the edge of the stairs and can not reach the ledge, it is likely because you have not purchased the Climb Leap Glove that allows Ezio to make a leap up and manually grab a ledge. Without the glove you may have to drop to the ground (watch for a patrol from the left) and eliminate a few more guards before climbing the stairs. In any event interact with the door to enter. Move forward to locate the marker and eavesdrop on a conversation. The marker is in an odd spot floating in the air. Climb the crates to the left of the large door below the marker's position. There is a ledge Ezio can grab above the door arch. Shimmy to the right around the corner and grab the metal pole. Use this pole to swing to the wooden beam. Jump to a higher grip on the wall and move to the right around the corner to drop onto the next wooden beam. Swing on the metal pole to reach the platform and cross the wooden beams. Jump to the next beam and drop to its other side. This beam extends to the corner and can be used to shimmy back towards the marker. As you pass the light/fire look for a higher hand hold to grip. Continue to the right and use the metal pole to swing to the next platform. We have arrived at the marker. Climb up the wall and pause at the top. There will be a group of guards on patrol. Wait for them to move to the left. One will stay while the others go up the stairs to the right. The lone guard will walk toward the opening where Ezio hangs. Eliminate him and wait for the guards to return. They move in the same pattern but may not be close enough to assassinate. When they pass by to the right again. Climb up quickly and kill the guard in the back. The other should continue up the stairs. Wait at the bottom of the stairs for the final guard and kill him as well. Look down the stairs for a patrolling guard. When he turns away move in for the kill. Go up the stairs toward the marker and pass through the next doorway. The stairs lead to a room with two guards. One patrols the floor while the other is on the balcony. They pass in opposite directions making it easier to kill them. Pull out the Crossbow (gotta love this weapon) and take out the ground guard when he is moving to the right (the balcony guard will be moving left). Now wait for the top floor guard to move back toward the right and shoot him too. Climb the bookshelf and assassinate the guard looking out the window. Exit the building through this window. A guard will be on the rooftop across the courtyard but he should not be a problem. Drop out of the window and be sure to hold onto the ledge. Move to the right and climb up. Continue right and drop (holding circle) to the ledge near the marker. Ezio peaks in the window. O-------------------------O |Memory 2: An Apple a Day | |=================================O |Beat Cesare to the Apple of Eden | |=========================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not kill anyone | O-----------------------------------------O Climb up the rest of the building. Several guards are patrolling this area. If you are going for Full Synchronization just run by the guards or continue around the side of the building to the marker. It does not matter if they detect Ezio. At the maker a cinematic begins. When it ends Lucrezia, turns on Cesare just as he turned on her. Exit the room and run down the stairs. Cesare locks the exit trapping Ezio, or so it appears. Go back up the stairs, stopping at the top of the first flight. Climb the weapon rack next to the door way and grab hold of the door frame. Push jump to the hanging platform (it is a good thing this just happens to be here) and leap from beam to beam until Ezio is at the way out shown to us at the end of the lock out scene. Race up the stairs running by any guards to see Cesare racing away. Take note of the pigeons at your feet. This is a sign of a hay stack below. Perform a Leap of Faith (trust me). Exit the hay and run down the path Cesare just took. Leap over the edge (maybe onto hanging platform first) and to the ground. Ezio was able to take the impact though the fall will due considerable damage. The likelihood of survival depends on health and possible armor. Race through the town ignoring guards until you reach your destination. If the guards attack and you are still interested in Full Synchronization, utilize plenty of medicine and possibly a smoke bomb (if available). This will keep Ezio healthy and possible allow for an escape. The mission ends once inside but Ezio is not done. Use Eagle Vision to identify the large central structure. Move to the the rear of the egg and interact to find the Apple. O----------------------------O |Memory 3: The Apple of Eden | |================================================O |Escape from the Vatican with the Apple of Eden | |================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not lose any health | O---------------------------------------------O Ezio has a powerful weapon to use during his escape. In order to use the Apple press and hold Square for a time. This will create fear in some guards while others will turn and fight for Ezio. Race out of the building and escape the yellow square. Keep running forward and you will likely reach the river at the end of the path. Jump in and swim away to become anonymous completing the memory. O---------------------------O |Memory 4: Demilitarization | |=======================================================================O |Destroy Cesare's Roman army, leaving him with little support to wage a | |counterattack. | O=======================================================================O Move into the area shaded in green to confront Cesare. His men will attack. Hold Square to use the Apple killing the Borgia guards. There are 5 primary targets each of which will have a special icon over their heads. While trying to eliminate these 5 men though more guards will flood the area. Try to focus in on the primary target's locations to eliminate them as quickly as possible. O---------------------O |Memory 5: Seeing Red | |===================================================================O |Break up Cesare's meeting with the Cardinals to ensure he does not | |successfully petition for aid. | O===================================================================O Head to the marker and find the Cardinal waiting inside the green zone. Be sure that he does not see Ezio then tail him to the meeting site. When he enters the Colosseum look for an opening to the left of his entry point to avoid the soldiers. Be careful though because the Cardinal will pass right by this location on his way to the meeting. Proceed too quickly and he will see Ezio. After this cinematic more of Cesare's men attack with a group of soldiers. Using a combination of the Apple and your Assassin recruits eliminate Cesare's charging Captains. Initially there will be two but more will come. In total there were at least 7 but the fight can be frantic and keeping track of the numbers is not important. Just be sure that once Ezio uses the Apple not to be hit by an enemy if the health meter is too drained. To avoid damage call in the Assassins or run around the area looking for some temporary cover. O------------------------------O |Memory 6: All Roads Lead to...| |=============================================================================O |Join the other Assassins to confront Cesare and his last remaining followers | O=============================================================================O Move ahead ignoring the guards. Enter the green circle to initiate the cinematic. With the aid of the other Assassin leaders and the Apple eliminate all the Borgia that are fighting. When the new marker appears move there to confront Cesare again. The cinematic ends the sequence. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Sequence 9: The Fall [4.9] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O---------------------O |Memory 1: Pax Romana | |===========================================================================O |Chase Cesare Borgia across the Navarrese battlefield at Viana and kill him | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not drop below 5 health squares. | O----------------------------------------------------------O Ezio finds himself in a familiar place at least if you remember the opening sequence of the game. Rapidly tap square again only to just miss killing Cesare. Fend of the Borgia soldiers until a cinematic begins. When Ezio gets back up jump onto the horse and ride down the path. The bridge ahead is out hold R1 + X to leap across. Once over a mortar hits the steed and Ezio must travel on foot. Fight through the guards without regard to stealth. Well that is to say you do not have to worry about detection. Of course the more enemies killed by stealth the less fighting that is necessary. At the next marker, we witness the brutal murder of a civilian woman. Proceed through town killing as many Borgia as you see fit. At the end of town is a destroyed siege tower. Climb it. As the tower falls Ezio leaps out. Proceed toward the castle gate eliminating enemies. Climb another siege tower and Cesare is near. Confront him again for the last time hopefully. The fight against Cesare is not too difficult. Stay on the offensive and use the kick to break his guard. As the fight proceeds a rapid tap of Square push button sequence will occur. If successful, Ezio will eliminate a portion of Cesare's armor. With each successive piece of armor removed a group of guards will appear to aid Cesare. Eliminate the guards but never forget about the primary target. While fighting the guards, Cesare will fire a gun and attack with his sword. The quicker you can thin out the guards the better. O-----------------O |Memory 2: A Seed | |================================================================O |The Piece of Eden has been deposited inside the Colosseum Vault | O================================================================O With Cesare dead, Ezio returns the Apple into hiding. The location of which Desmond, who we are now in control of, believes he knows. Walk upstairs and turn on Eagle Vision to view the pattern of triangles we look at earlier in the game. Desmond and his crew believe they have figured out the password to the door to the Apple as well as its location. Leap onto the two wooden beams then look to the left. Jump to the ledge and cross a couple more beams. Desmond informs Lucy that he is headed toward the entrance. The path ahead is pretty simple. When you get to the second fuse box look up and climb. Proceed forward swinging on two more chandeliers only to arrive at what appears to be a well lit dead end. Climb the wall and perform a push jump to the block arch. Continue and Desmond will swing onto a broken wall with black and yellow bars running across it. Climb to the highest bar and move through the opening in the wall. After Desmond mentions the place being like a maze due to all the construction, he is grounded. Climb the wall on the left and push jump to the opposite wall. Move to Desmond's left to reach the next set of bars. Now push jump to the opening in the opposite wall. Follow the ghost on horseback to find another dead end. That is if it wasn't for the lift. Use the lift and continue across more wooden beams. Perform a Leap of Faith and exit the hay. Using Eagle Vision Desmond should see an Assassin's symbol above the statue as well as one on each side of the room. Move to the symbols on the sides and press a button so Desmond will press the buttons. Once both are hit a cinematic takes us inside. Climb onto the column to the left. This allows us to pass by the gate. Stay off the ground and leap to the next wall. Move to the right and use the wooden beams to reach the next opening. There will be a large gap between the last and next to last beam. Jump to the opposite wall and move toward the last beam. From here jump to the pole to swing to the next "vision". Activate Eagle Vision to see the next two buttons. Push them to move forward. Climb up the opening in the ceiling for a cinematic. This room should look familiar to those who played Assassin's Creed 2. Proceed deeper into this room and Desmond will see another ghost. Climb the same structure it does to arrive at the switch that releases the chandeliers. Leap to the left balcony to access the ceiling ornaments. Jump from one to another to reach the next switch. Along the way one of the ceiling beams will trigger a ladder as a checkpoint in case you fall so you do not have to start from scratch. The lever raises an object in the floor. Reunite with the rest of the team. Shaun is wrong, it isn't a dead end. Press any button to show him he is wrong. Go to the door that has the Apple locked away. The password works. Drop below and interact with the device on the floor. This raises some thin columns. Jump from column to column grabbing the shiny bars along the way. If a jump looks too high it probably is and it is not meant to be reached directly. At the end of the path you find yourself where you started but a new set of stairs appears. Go up the steps to the Apple. Once Desmond has it in hand I'll let you see the rest then wait for the next installment of Assassin's Creed. ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ T H E T R U T H [5.0] ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Locations *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Castra Praetoria ---------------- -Eastern most wall of Castra Praetoria close to center height center length of the northern section Santa Maria Dei Miracoli and Santa Maria Di Montesant ------------------------------------------------------ -When looking at the building its to the right of the domes on the face of the tower.

Find the common thread and select the correct pictures to pass the puzzle. In the picture puzzles the paintings will be numbered in order from left to right just as you were reading a book. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 -Chessboard - Move the appropriate piece to the appropriate board position -Quarantine Zone - Move the reticle to locate flashing red lights. The beeping sound will help you know you are close to the light. -Spin Puzzle - In the spin puzzle descriptions I will list each of the four portions of the wheel by number. The outer most portion is 1 and the inner most is 4. In some of the spin puzzles multiple wheels may move. When this is the case number 1 can be found by press up on the left analog stick until the outer wheel combination is reached. The direction to spin will be described as left or right in relation to pushes of the analog stick. Left is counterclockwise and right is clockwise. An example of a solution would be: 1: Left 2 times 2: Right 3 times 4: Left 1 time 3: Right 5 times In this example you would press up on the left analog stick three times until the outer ring (an any attached to the outer ring) is highlighted. Now move the left analog stick to the left twice. Highlight the next set of rings inward and move the stick to the right 3 times. Press the analog stick until the inner most set of rings are highlighted and push the stick to the left once. Finally back out one time and push the stick to the right 5 times This can be a confusing process but hopefully the description will help. -Code Breaking - You are give a set of pictures with a clue. There is a hidden symbol in the pictures that will reveal a set of coordinates. Upon locating the coordinates you have the ability to attempt to decipher a code using a symbol wheel as a key. -Voice Puzzle - You are trying to select the wavelengths on the left to move the wavelength on the right. If the wavelength you create matches the one that is pre-printed in blue the voice recording is decrypted and you can hear it.

Its next to a table on a wall that circles the inside of the Colosseum at ground level. Once inside climb onto the low wooden beam on the left. Use it to reach the higher beam and go over the wall. Interact with the lever to open the gate. Proceed forward to find a man sitting in a chair in the distance. Approach him and the cinematic reveals an ambush. Take out the enemies (disarming someone who attacks provides Ezio with a quick kill and a weapon). The guy in the black cloak drops down to talk things over. When Ezio asks for the Scroll the man flees. Chase the man in black. He will take short cuts behind gates an Ezio will have to improvise. The man will enter an area with numerous others dressed just as him. Activate Eagle Vision and follow the "mist" to the target. Once he is located the chase is on. The guy will run to a horse and ride away. There are a couple more horses just standing around waiting to be used in a chase. Mount one and go after the man in black. At the end of the line Ezio will find another fight. Disarm someone then use that weapon against all the rest. Climb the wall to reach the rafters. Enter the opening in the wall and perform a leap of faith. Find the hole in the wall and jump across the gap. Drop below and interact with the door. Open all the chests then be sure to grab the items in the big box on the counter. A portion of the will will shimmer. Use it to exit. O--------------O |The Sixth Day | |============================================================O |Raid the Pope's old residence to find the Shrine to Romulus | |===============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not lose more than a block of health. | O---------------------------------------------------------------O Go to the Plazzo Laterano and climb the wall. The entrance is in the northwest corner. Move through the next couple of rooms and make a left. This should lead you to a long corridor with holes in the floor. Cross using the wood beams and climb up the wall on the left. Work around to a balcony that is indicated by the marker and a painting will fall. This will be shortcut in case Ezio falls. Jump from chandelier to chandelier to arrive at an opposite balcony. In the next room look for a tall statue with its hands held out. Climb the statue and jump onto the ceiling swing. Press and hold circle as you release the swing to grab the ledge on the column. Move around so you can jump to the wall then go to the left. The pole will allow Ezio to swing over the gate. Climb the weapon rack to reach the rafters. Use the wooden beams to cross into the next doorway. Around the corner part of the flooring falls in. Jump to the wooden beams then to the wooden columns. This should place Ezio hanging from a broken floor that moves when he grabs hold. Go to the right and Push Jump toward the center of the room. When Ezio grabs the wooden beam move to his left. Climb up the ladder like portion of wooden beams at the end. Ezio should be able to jump to the wall on the left and grab hold where some of the wall has disappeared. Pull up to the balcony and find the stairs. Jump around the ceiling until reaching the next platform. A board drops that could help if Ezio falls. Continue forward and the cinematic shows the shrine. Drop below and go up the stairs. Interact with the gate. It does not open. Shoot the sand back to the left of the gate and another gate opens. Move through this doorway. Climb the wall directly across from the door and move to the left. Pull up through the hole in the wall. Now we are in the same room as before but with a different perspective. Turn and enter through the broken gate behind Ezio. Shoot the sand bag then jump onto the railing. From the railing jump to the top of the column and rotate around it. Jump to the platform on the opposite wall then move forward. Ezio's landing creates an alternate route just in case he falls. Climb onto the table and jump onto the column. Use the exposed wooden beams to rise toward the ceiling. Perform a side jump to Ezio's right then jump across to the other side of the room. Head to the back left corner and shoot a second sand bag. Drop to the floor and enter the shrine. Loot everything and exit.

Logical, huh? As you approach the new green marker look for a group of mercenaries to hire so you can achieve the Full Synchronization. Activate Eagle Vision to identify the Overseer. Send the mercenaries in to fight the Overseer's guards then move in for the kill. A map with a war machine location has been acquired. O------------------------O |Outgunned: Colli Albani | |=============================================================================O |Leonardo's designs have resulted in a machine capable of cutting down 100 men| |in mere seconds. It cannot be left in the hands of the Borgia. | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not kill anybody before destroying the blueprints.| O---------------------------------------------------------------------------O The machine gun blueprints are in the upper left corner of the area. The best advise is to walk through town avoiding all red dots. The fast walk is your best option for moving quickly without alerting guards. The as you approach the blueprints watch the map for a patrolling sentry. The guard will walk in a circular pattern near the blueprints. Wait for the guard to move toward the back corner where the blueprints are located then move to the stack of crates. As the guard moves away from the blueprints move to them and interactm Ezio burns the schematics. If you were able to reach the blueprints and destroy them without killing anyone Full Synchronization for this memory is achieved. Now climb over the wall behind where the blueprints were hanging. Cross the roof and drop below. Locate the barrels in the arch and interact with them. Ezio lights the gun powder and now must flee to safety. Quickly move through the white on screen cues to be at a safe distance when the explosion occurs. The machine gun carriage is now running away. Ezio now has a horse to ride. Quickly chase after the carriage avoiding any gun shots that come your way. On at least two separate occasions traps will be set. Numerous logs will flood the road behind the carriage forcing Ezio to take a different route. When you get close enough to the carriage a cinematic will allow Ezio to board. Now, we must escape with the weapon. You no longer have to worry about controlling speed just direction. Keep the carriage on the road and cut off any approaching Borgia by steering into them. The remainder of the mission has Ezio controlling the gun as the horses steer themselves. Target all of the enemies that approach and shoot them all before they shoot Ezio. Towards the end we even venture through a town where Ezio can shoot at some explosive barrels to take out multiple enemies. If successful the result is no more machine gun.

You can stealth kill him but will not get Full Synchronization. Instead give him a kick first then kill him. This will also result in having to fight off some Borgia guards. O-------------O |Loose Cannon | |===========================================================================O |The Borgia have constructed a deadly Naval War Machine based on Leonardo's | |designs.

He agrees to assist Ezio. Follow the path he takes in the gondola. When he enters the tunnel take out the guard on the left. A cinematic will allow Eduardo to pass but block Ezio. Move to the wall opposite where the guard was patrolling. Near the entrance to the area will be some hand grips Ezio can use to climb to the rafters. Use the wooden beams to cross over the gate. To be safe you can kill the guards below as you pass. Especially if you have a fully loaded Crossbow. The bolts from a crossbow are one shot kills. Otherwise it is possible to move to the next gate unseen. As Eduardo moves deeper in to the area the path will split and Ezio runs out of rafters to run across. When the gates open for Eduardo to row one way, travel down the other fork kill guards as you go. At the final gate Eduardo will move through and Ezio can open a door at the dock. Being detected now will not desynchronize the memory. Move forward and Ezio will encounter five guards in the next room. Two groups of two are separated by a block wall while the fifth is in front of the next gate. Kill them all then open the gate. This next room houses the blueprints and lots of guards. The two at the end beginning of the room can be silently assassinated. Defeat the rest then climb the ladder to the second level. The blueprints are hanging on the wall. Interact with the blueprints to destroy them. There are a few guards on the upper levels. Ezio can shoot them with a Crossbow if you have bolts left. Otherwise, move to the side of the room and interact with the wheel on the wall. This raises a platform of crates. Use this platform and one that was already in place to reach the upper levels. Use the beams and platforms at this marker to move around through a opening in the wall and back to the room with the boat. The blue marker indicates the location of another wheel that will release water into the room. Ezio jumps into the water and boards the boat. Row out to the Borgia ship. Avoid the red target lines so Ezio stays out of the path of its defenses. Move close enough to fire at the ship's sails. When close tap Square to man the cannon. Destroy all three sails to sink the ship. Three more ships are in the distance each with three more sails.

Any alert from a guard will result in desynchronization. Move forward and you will see the architect immediately. Run behind the buildings to the right and wait for the patrolling guard to pass by. Kill the guard then run straight ahead and jump into the cart of hay. A second guard will stop nearby. Kill him then climb the building you just ran by. At the top locate the enemy below and Assassinate him. Move down the path and enter the next cart of hay. A guard will be easy to assassinate nearby. Exit then eliminate the patrolman on the roof of the small building. Race forward and see the architect about to enter the gate. The gate is guarded by two men and will slam shut when the target passes through. Quickly move to the right. The guards may see you but should not be alerted. Climb the crates on the side of the building. Use the wooden beams to turn the corner. Ezio should find an opening in the wall that will allow him to see the architect and enter the fortress. Drop below once the target is in sight. Sheath your weapons and use your fists to acquire the location of the blueprints. A blue marker appears on the mini-map indicating the location of the blueprints. Climb the nearby building and move back to where Ezio entered the fortress. Follow the wall (staying off the ground) to the blueprints. A guard may see Ezio again but this should not cause an alert. Interact with the blueprints and Ezio will burn them. Exit the shack and climb the building straight ahead. There will be a guard on the roof, one on the roof to the left, and one patrolling the ground. Avoid the site of the rooftop guard and either wait for the ground guard to leave or enter the well to go unseen. In any event the goal is to open the cell holding the mercenaries. Once they exit follow and protect them on the way to the tank. Interact with the opening to the passage. Climb through the opening in the wall. Look to the upper left if you haven't found it. Jump across the beams and find the lever on the other side to open the gates. The mercenaries will now be able to pass through. Now though, there is another closed gate blocking the path. Repeat the task by climbing up the wall to the left and jumping around to open this gate. Once through there is a bridge that needs lowered. Again look on the wall to the left for some hand grips. Climb up and move across the water to lower the bridge. The next time we are in control of Ezio he is inside the tank. Drive the tank with the left stick, find targets with the right (move the camera) and fire with R1. Drive to the end of the path shooting cannons and guards. At the end Ezio will face off against another tank. Strafe around it and fire relentlessly. With it destroyed move on up the path. Blow a hole through the gate and be prepared for a fight against two more tanks. The strategy remains the same stay on the move and fire when the enemy is in the crosshairs. There will be a red line of site coming from the tanks when they are about to fire just as there was from the cannons. O----------O |War Plans | |==========================================================================O |Kill the Templar Overseer to recover a map showing the location of one of | |Leonardo's war machines | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Use a smoke bomb to stun the Overseer | O------------------------------------------------------------O Move to the nearby location where the Overseer patrols. Activate Eagle Vision to identify the target. Equip the smoke bombs and toss one while close to the Overseer. He should start to cough. This is the perfect time to stab him. Flee or defeat the remaining guards. O-------------------O |Flying Machine 2.0 | |===========================================================================O |Leonardo has redesigned his flying machine with a light cannon, creating a | |deadly aerial weapon. Ensure that the Borgia never get to use it. | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not get shot while using the Bomber | O-------------------------------------------------------------O Activate Eagle Vision to locate the architect. Follow him behind a house and sheath all weapons. Use your fists to beat the location of the blueprints out of the architect. Run along the back of the buildings to the west until you reach a wall. Follow the wall to a ladder and climb to the roof. Jump from the roof to the top of the wall. Avoid or kill the guars quickly (Ezio is notorious after all). The kills are easily accomplished with the crossbow. It is also possible to sneak to the side of the buildings and perform stealth assassinations. The blue marker is the location of the blueprints. With the two tower guards dead Ezio should have a safe and clear path to locate the schematics. Destroy them and exit the shed. Ezio is still notorious so all guards are still under a high alert status. Blend in with a group of civilians to move through the next Borgia checkpoint. Hopefully, Ezio can use this cover to reach the fortress ahead. I actually, remained blended until passing the gate. Once by the gate run around the back of the fortress to the other side. Climb to the roof of the stables and leap over to the wall across from the hanging platform. Find the hand grips and climb to the top of the tower. Eliminate the guard and Ezio has penetrated the outer wall of the fortress. Perform a Leap of Faith into the hay stack below. Wait in the hay for two guards to walk by. Once they pass exit and run toward the direction they are moving except Ezio should climb the crates. Now jump across the beams to the rooftop. The goal is to reach the roof of the stables unnoticed. From here climb to the top of the tower and eliminate the guard. Leap across to the tower next to the goal. Move around to the front of the building and assassinate the guard. Enter the door behind the marker. Climb the ladder and make your way to the top of the inside of the tower. Near the top Ezio finds his goal, an open window. Exit and jump to the beam and turn the corner. At the very top of the tower interact with the wheel of rolled up rope to eliminate the four guards. Climb the final ladder to reach the flying machine. With Ezio in control of the flying machine, fly around the area firing at the workshops (R1) to destroy them. Two hits with the flying machine's cannon will destroy a workshop. There are four locations that must be destroyed. The flying machine has no way to stay airborne permanently. Eventually, Ezio will nose dive. Fire the cannon into the ground to create a fire that will provide and updraft allowing increased flight time. Once the four workshops are gone, we must destroy the Bomber construction carts. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Borgia Towers *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O----------------------------------O |Iacopo De Grassi: Centro District | |================================================================O |Iacopo likes to oversee his district from the top of his tower | |================================================================O |Difficulty | O-------------O O---------------------------------O |Pietro Da Siena: Centro District | |===========================================================================O |Twin brother of Valentino da Siena, Pietro is well guarded and will run as | |soon as he feels threatened | |===========================================================================O |Difficulty 5 | O-------------O There is a lift next to a bank on the western face of the Tower. Use this lift to rise to the roof and walk forward. Ezio will be directly over a courtyard and the captain will be under shelter below Ezio's feet. If you move to the North you should see a group of 4 guards on a balcony below. Call in an Assassin strike to quietly eliminate these guards. Wait for the Assassin strike to reload then slowly enter through the balcony. Pietro is to the right and well guarded. Call in another Assassin strike and move quickly to take out the Tower Captain. Reduce notoriety. Once anonymity is your friend again climb the tower synchronize and ignite. O------------------------------------O |Domenico Da Padova: Centro District | |===========================================================================O |Domenico is paranoid and constantly searches the area around his tower for | |threats | |===========================================================================O |Difficulty 3 | O-------------O Enter from the North and locate what I assume is a church inside of the area of Borgia influence. The Captain stands in front of the church. If you enter from the north and take out a couple of rooftop guards, Ezio will have quick access to climb the back of the building. Toward the front of the church there will be a guard on a smaller roof. Take him out and drop below. Once the Captain sees you he will try to run, but since you got the jump on him it should be an easy kill. Now defeat the remaining guards or run away. Climb the tower, synchronize and ignite. O-------------------------------------O |Belardino Da Verona: Centro District | |=====================================================O |Belardinao is tough and not afraid of a tough battle | |=====================================================O |Difficulty 3 | O-------------O Enter the protected area from the West. A trio of guards will be patrolling the rooftops. They are easily taken out without detection if you watch their movements and attack at the right time. The Captain will usually be patrolling in an open area near these roofs. You can send in an Assassin, perform a direct assault, or try to hide in the hay and steal kill the Captain. In any event eliminate him, climb the tower, synchronize with the view point, and ignite the structure. O------------------------------------O |Valentino Da Siena: Centro District | |=============================================================================O |The twin brother of Pietro da Siena, Valentino constantly paces the pier and | |hides as soon as something fishy is going on. | |=============================================================================O |Difficulty 4 | O--------------O Enter the water on the Eastern side of the Borgia controlled area. Da Siena patrols a dock that is over the water here. Swim near the dock so Ezio is not seen. Watch the Captain's movements. Hang off the side of the dock that he regularly paces. When he walks by press Square to Assassinate then drop back into the water and swim away. Climb the nearby tower, synchronize, and ignite. O-----------------------------------O |Prospero Da Siena: Antico District | |==========================================================================O |Eldest of the da Siena brothers, Prospero is quick to flee and cry out to | |other guards for backup. | |==========================================================================O |Difficulty 5 | O-------------O The most difficult part about killing this Captain is that he is hidden underground and runs at the slightest hint of trouble. Once you enter the controlled area look for a set of stairs that leads below. Try to slowly and methodically defeat the guards. Look for a single Borgia standing by a ladder. At the bottom of the ladder call for support from your Assassin friends to eliminate a duo of guards. The Captain is behind the next wall. He will run quickly if there is much of a fight between the Assassin recruits and Borgia, so act with haste to eliminate him. The final steps are to climb, synchronize, and ignite the tower. O------------------------------------O |Tommaso Di Viterbo: Antico District | |========================================================================O |Tommaso has trained his horse to gallop away from threats, and he feels | |threatened often. | |========================================================================O |Difficulty 4 | O-------------O The Captain rides his horse patrolling the western side of the area. Move in close and hijack his horse before he has a chance to run. O-------------------------------------O |Ippolito Di Foligno: Antico District | |===========================================================================O |Ippolito spends his days in seclusion but will shoot ferociously at anyone | |who crosses his path | |===========================================================================O |Difficulty 3 | O-------------O Di Foligno can be found at the top of the tower in this Borgia controlled area. Eliminate guards (either silently or otherwise) around the tower. Less guards means an easier climb. At the top wait for the Captain to turn his back then enter and Assassinate. Ignite the tower and leave. O-----------------------------------------O |Francesco Da Velletri: Campagna District | |===============================================================O |Francesco does not back down from anyone. He charges on sight. | |===============================================================O |Difficulty 3 | O--------------O This one really is not that bad at all. Francesco will not run. All Ezio has to do is enter town and locate the Captain. The rest is just good fighting skill. O-----------------------------------------O |Antonio Da Fiorentino: Campagna District | |========================================================================O |Antonio has his hand on the trigger and will shoot at anything he finds | |abnormal | |========================================================================O |Difficulty 2 | O--------------O This captain patrols a low level of the tower. A good entry point could be just south of the tower. Climb the wall and jump into the hay cart. When the patrols are gone climb to the first level of the tower and eliminate the Captain. You know the rest. O----------------------------------O |Battista Borgia Campagna District | |===========================================================================O |Battista is the sly cousin of Cesare. He is quick to run off and tell the | |Captain General everything he sees and hears. | |===========================================================================O |Difficulty | O--------------O O-----------------------------------------O |Ferdinando Di Napoli: Campagna District | |============================================================================O |Ferdinando is always accompanied by a large group of guards who attack with | |ferocity and tenacity. | | ===========================================================================O |Difficulty 4 | O--------------O Di Napoli is likely on horseback patrolling outside the "front" entrance of this Borgia encampment. He is not alone. A group of several other guards on horseback will fight for their Captain. Identify Di Napoli and execute him. Though not need a group of well trained Assassins can assist your cause greatly. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Templar Agents *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O--------------O |Down to Earth | |=======================================================================O |Lanz is often seen wandering the nearby rooftops. Locate and kill him. | |=======================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill your target with the hidden blade | O-------------------------------------------------------------O A lady is standing on a roof waiting. Talk with her to initiate the memory. Move to the marker and turn on Eagle Vision. This will help locate Lanz much quicker. Once he is found move to his location and Assassinate him with the hidden blade. O-----------O |Red-Handed | |===============================================================O |Lia de Russo works near the antique baths. Locate and kill her | |===============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill your target with the hidden blade. | O--------------------------------------------------------------O Move to the marker, locate, and kill de Russo. Even if you have throwing knives or the crossbow, to achieve Full Synchronization its best to run de Russo down and execute her using the hidden blade. O----------------O |Excommunication | |============================================================O |Brother Ristoro hides near his church. Locate and kill him. | |================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill Brother Ristoro by air assassination | O----------------------------------------------------------------O Brother Ristoro walks the courtyard of a church indicated by the memory marker. Move to the church and climb to the roof. Before finishing the climb look for any guards patrolling the area. Take out the guards (including those on the nearby roofs) and look into the courtyard with Eagle Vision. Ristoro is not always in the open. Be patient and wait for him to step out. Target him and hit the assassination button to kill him by air assassination. O-----------O |The Ringer | |================================================================O |Donato Mancini races in the Circo Massimo. Locate and kill him. | |================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Killy only Donato Mancini | O------------------------------------------------O I don't know why Ezio decides to help this evil race winning criminal, but lets look for our target any way. Run over to Mancini's location to find him on horseback. As long as you only kill Mancini you will get Full Synchronization, so use your favorite method to take out this Templar. O-------------------O |Counter-Propaganda | |============================================================================O |Lure Auguste Oberlin from his workshop by tearing down his propaganda, then | |locate and kill him | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill your target with the hidden blade | O-------------------------------------------------------------O What a low life piece of scum. Not only is he working for the Borgia but he beats his wife on the side. This guy deserves a blade in the neck. Each of the posters are marked on the map. Move to each one's location and rip it down. Once the last of the posters have been torn down, Oberlin and friends appear. They are angry about the signs but Ezio is more skilled. Eliminate Oberlin with the hidden blade fro Full Synchronization. O------------O |Firing Line | |===========================================================================O |Gaspar de la Croix is firing indiscriminately from his high vantage point. | |Kill him. | |===========================================================================| |Full Synchronization: Kill the target using the Hidden Blade within 45 sec | O---------------------------------------------------------------------------O This civilian is quite brave. He has offered to draw the sniper's fire so Ezio has a better chance to execute the Templar. The target is through the arch ahead. As you move forward the gate slams shut. Climb over the wall and continue the chase. At the next gate two guards attack. Ignore them or call in your Assassin Recruits to kill them. Croix runs through one more gate that will slam shut. Use the poles/beams to the right of the gate to reach him. Use the hidden blade to get credit for Full Synchronization. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Cristina *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O----------------O |A Second Chance | |======================================================O |Follow Cristina to seek the renewal of her attentions.| O======================================================O The scene shifts to the past when Ezio was younger and less confident. His a attempt to charm a young maiden is unsuccessful. Ezio only wishes for a second chance. Follow Cristina without being detected. She encounters a Borgia that acts much less gentlemenly than Ezio. Defend her honor by beating up the Borgia scum. It looks like Ezio earned his second chance after all. O-----------O |Last Rites | |================================================================O |Give Federico, Giovanni, and Petruccio Auditore a proper burial | O================================================================O Turn around and walk toward the marker. The goal is to escort Cristina to the site of Ezio's family's execution site. When they we find that they have already been cut down. "Talk" with the approaching guard to find out where they are currently located. The guard reveals that the bodies are near the river. Escort Cristina to the next marker. Here we see Ezio's family on the ground in the distance. Between Ezio and the bodies are two guards. Climb the ladder to the left and cross the roofs to reach the dead Auditores. When you near the bodies look for a second group of patrolling Borgia coming up from the alley that follows the river. Once they circle around and return down the alley pick up a body and take it to the boat. Ezio should be able to carry at least two family members to the boat before the patrol returns. The third is possible to get too but if there is a doubt wait for the patrol to walk away. After a cinematic the memory is complete. O---------O |Best Man | |====================================================O |Save Cristina's fiance, Manfredo, from the gamblers | O====================================================O Race to the marker to find the fiance in deep trouble. Three gamblers are not so kindly requesting their money. Once at the bridge move in for the kill. Eliminate all three of the gamblers to save the future husband of the woman Ezio loves. O------------------O |Persona Non Grata | |===============================================================O |Plant a note on Cristina to lure her away from the festivities | O===============================================================O Move inside the green circle and activate Eagle Vision to locate Cristina. When she walks by hold X (just like picking a pocket) to place a note on her. It is best to perform the drop from behind so she will not be alerted to you presence. With the note delivered move to the alley and await the cinematic. O---------------------O |Love's Labour's Lost | |=====================================O |Save Cristina from Savaonarola's men | O=====================================O Run to Cristina's location and fight for her life. Four enemies surround her. Kill all four. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Assassination *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O--------------O |Two's Company | |==========================================================================O |In an attempt to scare the citizens of Roma, the Borgia have hired two | |notoriously cruel guards to beat up anyone they see. Remove them from the | |streets to give the people hope ~Niccolo | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill both targets with your hidden blade. | O----------------------------------------------------------------O There are of course two targets. The one to the west is easy. He patrols just inside a restricted area wall. Climb the short wall and assassinate him as he walks by. Since the first one was so easy the northern target must be difficult. Well... not really. Simply locate the area he patrols then move to the side and wait for him. A quick blade to the belly and the mission ends. O-----------------------O |...And Three's A Crowd | |============================================================================O |Cesare hopes that our rebels will stumble into his line of fire. His expert | |gunmen wait, instructed by their master to shoot unsavory targets on sight | |Blind them to further our cause ~Niccolo | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the 3 targets within 2 minutes | O----------------------------------------------------------O The three targets are patrolling the roofs in the nearby portion of town. All three are active at once. Move to the rooftops and begin killing. Again the Crossbow is an excellent weapon for this mission. O------------O |Serf's Turf | |=============================================================================O |Farmers have a hard enough time turning a profit in times of war, but Romans | |must deal with the Borgia taking their hefty share. Put an end to this | |injustice ~Niccolo | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Assassinate 3 guards with the hidden blade | O-----------------------------------------------------------------O Move to the field indicated by the marker and take out the 6 horse riding Borgia. In order to use the hidden blade run up to it and hijack their horses. This take them off the horse giving Ezio opportunity to kill. Alternatively, Ezio could block an incoming attack with his sword knocking the enemy from his horse then switch to the hidden blade for the kill. Either way kill all 6 to complete the memory. O--------------------O |Tactical Correction | |=============================================================================O |Cesare has called one of his chief tacticians back to Roma. He is a valuable | |asset, so the Captain General has provided a horse and an escort. I suspect | |neither will be a problem ~ Niccolo | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Finish the memory within 2 minutes | O---------------------------------------------------------O Run to the traveling Borgia and eliminate them all. It would be best to take out the horseback rider first, but if you don't it still should not be too big of a deal. There are a total of five men that Ezio will have to take out. The odds seem unfair… for the Borgia that is. O--------------------O |Bearers of Bad News | |============================================================================O |The Borgia have unleashed their interrogators. If they cannot find us, they | |will brutalize the people of Roma until they get answers. Strike with | |precision or you may be overwhelmed | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not let your targets call for reinforcements | O----------------------------------------------------------------------O There are six assassination targets involved in this mission. All six are located at the same site. They are divided into two sets of three. The easiest way to accomplish this Assassination Mission with Full Synchronization is to run to the site and stand on the rooftops out of sight. Target one of the two sets of enemies and call for an Assassin Arrow Strike. Each of the guards will be killed quickly and quietly with no alerts. Wait for the ability to recharge then replicate on the other set of enemies O---------------O |Red Letter Day | |===========================================================================O |Our enemy is feeling pressure as we close in. Important messages are now | |delivered by armored mercenaries. This tactic will not slow us. Ensure the | |messages die with their couriers ~Niccolo | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill both targets in under 60 seconds. | O-------------------------------------------------------------O Locate the couriers by using the mini-map. They are in the same general location and guarded by a several soldiers. Ezio should be able to get a quick kill on one of the couriers without having to fight anyone. Once the first one is dead the guards will attack. At this time try to get a quick kill then use the continuation execution to eliminate the second courier. If you do not kill the 2nd courier quickly you can still complete the mission but Full Synchronization will not be achieved. Alternatively, use of the crossbow if available could hasten the courier's death if you aim is quick. O----------------O |The Three Amici | |===========================================================================O |To bolster his troops, Cesare has begun to recruit untrained soldiers. His | |veteran trainers are critical to his success. Find and kill them. ~Niccolo | |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the targets with the hidden blade | O-------------------------------------------------------------O This one is simple enough. Move to each of the three target locations. Upon arrival locate the trainer, walk up to him, and use the hidden blade to kill him. After the kill Ezio can either fight his way out or run. There should be no problem getting close to each target and using the hidden blade. O---------------------O |The Merchant of Rome | |=============================================================================O |Merchants under Borgia protection often trade favors at the expense of thier | |honest peers. Teach them that Borgia protection is a myth ~Niccolo | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Use the Assassin Recruits to assist in a diversion | O-------------------------------------------------------------------------O When Ezio arrives at the marker, he will find that the merchant is well hidden with no direct way to drop onto or behind the merchant. Instead, target one of the guards in front of the merchant and call in a recruit to eliminate the guards. Now Ezio can move into the covered area and kill the merchant. O-------------------O |Turning the Tables | |==========================================================================O |Cesare's charisma has bought his guards the best equipment available. Use | |their own weapons against them. ~Niccolo | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill at least 1 Brute, 1 Seeker, and 1 Papal guard| | with his own weapon | O------------------------------------------------------------------------O There are two enemies of each type located at the markers. Kill one and grab his weapon to kill the other. If you are not interested in Full Synchronization you can call in recruits or use a Crossbow to kill quickly and silently. O-----------O |Graduation | |=========================================================================O |Four of the Borgia Papal Guards are scheduled to complete their training | |today. Send them congratulations on behalf of the Brotherhood ~Niccolo | |=========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not lose any health squares | O-----------------------------------------------------O Move to the Castle and enter through the door to the west of the bridge. Once through the gate climb the nearest wall and head toward the targets. To kill them easily without being seen call in your recruits. Once they are dead exit. O------------O |Cardinal Sin| |=============================================================================O |Servants of the Borgia believe they can hide behind the church, their actions| |protected by the clothing they wear. Make an example of a cardinal. Kill him | |before he reaches the sanctuary of San Pietro ~Niccolo | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill only the cardinal | O---------------------------------------------O Use the rooftops to move to the location of the cardinal. Once there activate Eagle Vision. The guy outlined in yellow is the target. Watch his movements drop behind him and Assassinate with the hidden blade. Alternatively, the recruits or Crossbow are highly effective. O---------------------O |Brutes and Brutality | |============================================================================O |The Borgia have sent large numbers of heavily armored guards in the city, | |hoping to further dissuade any opposition. Go. Oppose them before they hurt | |any of the rebels. ~Niccolo | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill all targets in under 15 seconds | O-----------------------------------------------------------O This sounds very difficult. There are eight targets that must die and in order to obtain Full Synchronization you must do so within 15 seconds. Well its not that tough, in fact this may be the easiest mission in the game. The targets are located nearby. Move close then lock onto one of the Borgia on the bridge. Now activate your Assassin's Arrow Storm to eliminate everyone quickly. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Thief *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O---------------------O |A Clash of Interests | |========================================================O |A brawl is about to begin. Teach Centro Occhi a lesson. | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Survive the fight without any thieves being knocked out| O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O As soon as you accept the memory be prepared for a fist fight. Eight enemies are ready for the fight. Move from enemy to enemy punching and kicking until no one but allies are standing O------------O |Up to Speed | |=========================================O |Defeat the upstart thief at his own race | |==============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Complete the course in under 60 seconds | O==============================================================O Move through the markers as quickly as you can. O---------O |Lost Pup | |======================================O |Rescue Aldo from the Cento Occhi gang | |=========================================O |Full Synch: Save Aldo in under 2 minutes | O-----------------------------------------O Run to the red marker to find Aldo held at Crossbow point. Attack the guards and defeat them before they have the chance to kill Aldo. O-----------------O |Eye on the Prize | |================================================O |Steal the Borgia documents from the Cento Occhi | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Stay undetected while attempting to steal the contents | | of the box | O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O As you approach the marker move to the rooftops. There are three guards patrolling the roof above the documents. Quietly eliminate them. Now drop to the ground and find the box containing the documents. Loot the box and leave the area to deliver the stolen goods. O-----------------O |Pointing Fingers | |=============================================================================O |Frame Vincenzo for Galvano's murder to create conflict between the Borgia and| |the Cento Occhi | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Remain undetected | O----------------------------------------O The nearby marker indicates Galvano's location. The Borgia guard is patrolling the roofs in town. Climb to his location and kill him with your favorite stealth method. Loot his body then pick it up and throw it onto the street below. A new marker should appear leading Ezio to Vincenzo. With the enemy faction member found move next to him and "Plant" the stolen goods on him. O--------------O |Class Warfare | |==========================================================================O |Hunt the Cento Occhi bandits who patrol the rooftops, preying on the poor | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill all of the bandits with the pistol | O--------------------------------------------------------------O Go to each of the locations and find each of the three targets. Once at a site turn on Eagle Vision to locate the bandit. If you are not concerned about Full Synchronization then kill the bandit by any means available otherwise equip the pistol and be sure to have plenty of bullets. Once Eagle Vision is activated or Ezio gets too close to the target, he will run. Chase him down and kill him. Repeat for the other two bandits. O---------------O |Young at Heart | |======================================O |Defeat the challenger at his own race | |========================================================O |Full Synchronization: Complete the course in 60 seconds | O--------------------------------------------------------O How dare that thief question Ezio's quickness? Run through the markers before time runs out to complete the memory. O-----------O |Downsizing | |===================================O |Find and kill the traitorous thief | |==============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the traitor with your hidden blade | O--------------------------------------------------------------O One of the members of the Thieves Guild is a traitor. He has been identified. Follow the thief contact that starts the mission. He will lead you to the traitor. Once their we find that it was an ambush. Fight off all the guards to end the memory. O-------------O |For the Fans | |======================================O |Defeat the challenger at his own race | |====================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Complete the course without taking any damage | O--------------------------------------------------------------------O Ezio is given three minutes to reach the bottom of the Colosseum then climb back to the top and finally back to the bottom. O-----------------O |A Blanket Finish | |===============================================================O |Ride to the Circo Massimo and cut down the Cento Occhi leaders | |=========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the Cento Occhi Leaders with the hidden blade | O-------------------------------------------------------------------------O Ride to the Cento Occhi Leaders' location and kill all three of the men on horseback. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Courtesans *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O-----------------O |Property Dispute | |============================================O |Thrash and then humiliate Santino in public | |====================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Stop Santino before he beats up the Courtesan | O--------------------------------------------------------------------O Remove your active weapon using the Weapon Wheel (R2). Run to the marker and beat Santino with your hands. Once he is knocked out pick him up and take him to the central fountain. This embarrassing display well ensure he does not bother the ladies again O------------------O |The Morning After | |===================================================================O |The courtesan will identify the men who poisoned her. Punish them. | |===================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Complete the mission in under 400 seconds | O----------------------------------------------------------------O Use only your hands for this memory. Follow the lady to the first perpetrator. Beat this guy down with your bare hands. The courtesan says there are more. She leads Ezio to two more guys to fight. Be sure to not kill any of the three. If you mistakenly kill one it results in a restart from the beginning. O--------------------O |Old Habits Die Hard | |===========================================================O |Follow Giuletta to locate her benefactor and then kill him | |================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Assassinate the target from a hiding spot | O----------------------------------------------------------------O Follow Giuletta through town. Keeping a safe distance is normally a priority and it is here too. One interesting note though is that while following her she led Ezio up a set of stairs. At the top she stopped near a man sweeping to look behind her. After looking she returned back down the stairs where Ezio was standing. Fortunately, there was a bench at the base of the stairs to sit in providing the perfect cover. Once she leads you to the benefactor sneak to the outside of the nearby fence and circle to the target's back. Jump inside the to kill the target for Full Synchronization. Talk to Giuletta to end the memory. O---------------O |Running Scared | |==========================================================================O |Scare Giuletta so she seeks out the Spanish ambassador and then kill him. | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill only the ambassador | O-----------------------------------------------O In order to receive the Full Synchronization, Ezio will have to run through or avoid numerous guards that will be alerted. First though move to the marker and locate Giuletta. When she is found chase her. The scene of a woman being chased by a man causes the guards to attack. Ignore them and keep running. When Giuletta reaches the ambassador he is ready for a fight. Unfortunately for him he only brought fists to a sword fight. Eliminate the ambassador then talk to the banned Courtesan. O------------O |Malpractice | |=============================================================================O |Steal a poison antidote from Doctor Tommaso and deliver it to the courtesans | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Do not kill the doctor | O---------------------------------------------O This memory is timed Ezio has 2:30 to reach the doctor, steal the antidote, and return to the Courtesan. The most difficult part is the time. Normally, I'd say rooftop travel is the quickest and safest. I tried running the roofs on this mission and it seemed to only slow me down. Instead I stayed on the ground and as I approached the doctor's office site tried to move to the right of the shop. From the right side I move straight across (right to left) picked the doctor's pocket and raced back to the Courtesan. This is one of the few secondary missions that needed repeating. It may just be that I didn't find a great route to and from the doctor. O-----------O |Closing In | |================================================================O |Follow the ambassador to his meeting to reveal the Borgia plans | |================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the target using the hidden blade | O-------------------------------------------------------------O Locate the ambassador and follow him to his meeting. Ezio could stay on the roof during the entire time he is tailing the diplomat. The path takes us to Mausoleo Di Augusto. Climb the outer wall and circle around the ambassador's location. Drop inside the Mausoleo and walk through the arch directly behind the target. Assassinate him with the hidden blade. O----------O |Live Bait | |=======================================================================O |Follow the courtesan while remaining undetected as she lures out three | |ambassadors to be killed | |=======================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill a target using the ledge grab | O---------------------------------------------------------O When the courtesan stops to talk to the first target move to the side of the building and climb up. Move around to the front and perform the ledge assassination right here. Continue to follow the lady. She will encounter the next target at ground level. Target him then call for you Assassin Recruits to eliminate him and the guards. Eliminate the final ambassador either with the recruits, the crossbow, or hidden blade as she leads him around the corner. O-------------O |Bad Politics | |============================================================O |Ride to the meeting spot and kill the remaining ambassadors | |============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill all targets in under 60 seconds.| O-----------------------------------------------------------O Allow the Courtesan to lead you to the site of the meeting. As soon as you arrive Borgia will charge. Kill all nine that are in attendance as quickly as you can. A quick shower of arrows from your Assassin recruits will do wonders if it is available. O-------------O |Ghostwriting | |==========================================================================O |Steal a papal letter from the courier, construct a forgery and plant the | |forgery back on the courier | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Complete the mission in under 2 minutes and 20 seconds | O-----------------------------------------------------------------------------O Run to the courier and pick his pocket to get the letter. A blue marker appears on the map. Run to the Courtesan to acquire the forgery. Now simply race to the courier and plant the letter (just like picking his pocket). O--------------O |Troublemakers | |=============================================================O |Free Prospero and Fabrizio Colonna from their Borgia captors | |==========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Finish the mission with both mercenaries above half | |health | O--------------------------------------------------------------------------O Run to the area where the mercenaries are held prisoner. Attack the Bogia and eliminate all nine guards. With Prospero and Colonna free fight back the reinforcements until time runs out. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Copernico *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* O------------------O |False Sensorship | |==================================================O |Defend Copernico from the attacking Borgia guards | |========================================================O |Full Synchronization: Take no damage during the ambush | O--------------------------------------------------------O Look for a unique marker whose appearance resembles a sparkle of light or a star. Copernico is speaking to a crowd. Ezio notices the Borgia about to s silence the scholar and decides to get involved. Two new pieces of information will appear on screen. One is a timer while the other is a health meter for Copenico. The goal is to defeat the attacking Borgia for 2:00, keeping the scholar alive for the entire time. This can be a daunting task but made easier by calling for help. If available press L2 to call in for Assassin Recruits to aid in protecting Copernico. When the timer hit 0:00 kill any remaining Borgia then talk to Copernico. O-------------O |Out of Orbit | |=================================================================O |Help Copernico escape from the guards intent on hunting him down | |=================================================================| |Full Synchronization: Reach safety in under 3 minutes 20 seconds.| O-----------------------------------------------------------------O A new marker appears on the map. Run to its location to hide Copernico. If you encounter any Borgia eliminate them quickly. Attempt to avoid any red dots because the guards will be on high alert. Do not forget that the scholar is not quite as nimble as an Assassin. Climbing over walls and running on roof tops is not advisable. O---------------O |Intelligentsia | |============================================================================O |Find the scholar and deliver Copernico's letter before the guards kill him. | |============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Deliver the letter in under 2 minutes. | O-------------------------------------------------------------O Race through town to deliver the letter to the scholar. O----------------O |Honorary Degree | |===========================================================================O |Find the scholar and deliver Copernico's letter before the guards kill him.| |===========================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Deliver the letter in under 1 minute | O-----------------------------------------------------------O Race to deliver the letter. As long as you get there in under 2:00 the memory can be completed. Once the letter is delivered be sure to take out the Executioner and any remaining guards. O----------------O |Expedited Post | |=========================================================O |Deliver letters to three scholars before they are killed | |================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Deliver the 3 letters in under 3 minutes | O----------------------------------------------------------------O This time Ezio must deliver three separate letters to three different people. O-----------O |Man in Red | |=============================================================================O |Tail a Cardinal to discover the location of the man seeking Copernico's death| |the Master of the Sacred Palace | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill no one while following the Cardinal | O---------------------------------------------------------------O The letters have been delivered and Ezio meets with Copernico. The scholar believes he has a plan in which to trap his pursuer. Move to the marker and locate the Cardinal on the bridge. When he begins to walk tail him to his destination. Be careful because he likes to turn a corner and turn around more so than most of the other characters we've followed in the game. O--------------O |Sitting Ducks | |=============================================================================O |Locate and kill all the executioners sent by the Master of the Sacred Palace | |to murder the scholars | |=============================================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill all the executioners in under 5 minutes. | O--------------------------------------------------------------------O Six executioner are scattered in Rome. Ezio will get one target marker at a time to investigate. If the targets see Ezio they will run. It would be a good idea to have the Crossbow with plenty of bolts for this mission. It could mean the difference between lots of chasing and very little. For the most part stick to the roofs. The executioners will be found in this manner: 1) Rooftop 2) Ground 3) Rooftop 4) & 5) Ground (these two are walking side by side) and 6) Rooftop. You must eliminate all without dying or losing the target. If Ezio dies or the target is lost you will restart from the beginning. O---------------O |Close the Book | |=====================================O |Kill the Master of the Sacred Palace | |============================================================O |Full Synchronization: Kill the Master with the hidden blade | O------------------------------------------------------------O There really is not much to killing the Master. Move into town and locate him using the mini-map. The Master is not guarded at all and he moves around in the alleys of town. Once he is dead escape the yellow zone. Now Ezio must find Copernico and protect him from the incoming would be assassins. Defeat the enemies and the scholar is safe. He must have hist his head during the fight though because he begins to spout out heresy about the earth revolving around the sun. No wonder the Templars want this guy dead. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Guild Challenges *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Assassins Guild ---------------- 25 Assassin Recruits signaled during a fight 15 Arrow Storms 20 Assassin Recruits signaled to kill a target 5 Assassin Recruits signaled within a Core Memory 5 Recruits raised to the rank of Assassin Mercenaries Guild ------------------ 10 Mercenary groups sent to attack guards 5 Scaffolds destroyed by thrown guards 25 Brutes killed 25 Papal guards killed 25 Guards killed while on horseback 10 Guards on horseback air assassinated 10 Double Assassinations 5 Guards disarmed and killed with their own weapons 5 Kill 5 Guards within 10 seconds 10 Streaks of at least 5 kills Courtesans Guild ----------------- 10 Courtesan groups sent to distract guards 10 Enemies evaded using the crowd and other hide spots 20 Enemies stationed at Guard Posts killed using the crossbow without being detected 10 Horses belonging to guards commandeered without killing the rider 5 Dead bodies hidden in wells or haystacks 15 Guards poisoned 20 Guards killed during a smoke bomb attack 10 Guards assassinated from behind 5 Guards assassinated from blend spots Thieves Guild ------------- 10 Thief groups sent to lure guards 1 Sprint uninterrupted for 300 meters 20 Jump from a horse to a beam 40 Leaps of Faith 1 Perform a dive from a height of 25 meters 250f pickpocketed 1 Glide a cumulative total of 500 meters with the parachute 25 Guards killed with a ranged weapon 5 Guards assassinated from a beam. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Additional Memories *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* These easily found by purchasing the maps found at the Art Merchants. -24 Viewpoints -83 Borgia Flags (Rome) -18 Borgia Flags (Secret Locations) -10 Feathers (Rome) -144 Treasures (Rome) ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ A S S A S S I N ' S G U I L D [7.0] ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Assassins *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Upgrades -------- -Armor -Leather Spaulders: Protects the wearer from attacks meant to disable the arms -Leather Greaves: Protects the wearer from low attacks that may go unnoticed -Leather Chest: Protects the wearer's torso from direct attacks -Plate Armor: Made from platd metal, Metal Armor greatly lengthens the wearer's lifespan in the fiercest battles. -Weapons -Dagger: Daggers are quick and efficient weapons at short range. -Syrian Sword: Gives the bearer a longer reach, yet are still lightweight and sturdy -Schiavona: Equipped with a wide double-edged blade, Schiavonas are suitable for both cutting and thrusting -Axe: Though heavy and sometimes cumbersome, Axes devastate their victims Level 1 Recluta Level 2 Servitore 10 xp Level 3 Assistente 30 xp Level 4 Milite 80 xp Level 5 Discepolo 180 xp Level 6 Mercenario 350 xp Level 7 Guerriero 600 xp Level 8 Veterano 1200 xp Level 9 Maestro 2000 xp Level 10 Assassino 3500 xp *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Contracts *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Several cities will be available to perform Assassin contracts. These cities include: Florence, Venice, Barcelona, Vienna, Rome, Moscow, Paris, London, Calicut, Lisbon, Constantinople, and Cologne. By selecting a particular city you can see all the missions associated with that place. The difficulty, reward, and duration of the mission is also visible on the right. The difficulty is indicated by red diamonds or stars. The more red ones the harder the contract. The reward will show how much XP and currency the guild can obtain by being successful. The Synch Durations is the amount of game time required to complete the mission. Upon selecting a particular contract you will get a description of what the mission requires. Continue past that screen to select which of the Assassin's will attempt the contract. The higher the level the Assassin the more likely for success. It is possible to send up to five Assassins on a single contract. Once you add or take a way a member for a mission the Odds of Success meter will move. The closer the meter is to 100% the more likely the mission will be successful. Remember though all if all Assassin's are sent on contracts Ezio will not have anyone to assist him in the game world. You can not call for an Assassin Strike if everyone in the guild is in Paris completing contracts. The more contracts completed the more XP gained for the guild members and the stronger the guild becomes. ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ S H O P S [8.0] ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Bank [8.1] *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Banks serve two primary functions.
