This has probably been done/documented before, but just in case it hasn't, I'm going to write this stuff down. I just noticed this today, and if it's pretty slow of me, you can delete this whole topic.

You can kill Dante Moro during the mission where you have to steal the Golden Mask from him. Use the Courtesans nearby to Distract him, then steal the mask out of his pocket. The mission continues saying "Crash the Party". You COULD do that, or you could become EXPOSED and all the guards around this area, including Dante Moro start fighting you. If you want, use a Smoke Bomb to kill all of them except for Dante (whom you can't kill with the Hidden Blade yet). The area around the place where you steal the mask from him is close to water that has no railing around it, meaning you could easily throw him into the water... if he didn't Grab Break so much.

1) Kill all guards.
2) Quickstep to the right or left of Dante and get his health to 0 (it will begin flashing, any further damage will not do anything at all to him, I've tried for an hour).
3) Throw Sand at his face after quickstepping one of his attacks (he's very slow) and grab him.
4) Drag him to the side of the water and chuck him in.
5) This guy is unkillable... he appears so many times despite the fact that you kick his ass like.. 4 times. Persistent fellow.

Again, if this is old news, just delete it, or tell me to delete it.

Just checked and Dante cannot be killed during the boxing match. There are four invisible walls surrounding the ring during the entire event. The AI can come in but it can't get back out. Nor can Ezio. The walls are completely impassible, it seems.

Isn't Dante one of those who steps into the ring to challenge Ezio? (I'm probably not remembering it correctly.)

Also, I just had another Dante sighting. He's among the group that you must tail in Sequence 8 Memory 1.

You won't even feel the blade.

Nope, you're remembering correctly. Once you're in the ring, you can't get out until the mission is over. Once any AI jumps into the ring, they cannot get out either.

Geez, it seems like we're finding this guy everywhere. Reminds me of a popular renaissance-era children's book:

I believe that is from the same series as this childhood treasure:

It must have been awesome to be a kid in the late 15th century. Big smile

I still think the missing Petruccio Milk Carton is the best

theres another encounter with dante. right before the assassination mission to kill marco, you need to blend at carnivale 1 minute. you can pay courtesans to lure dante from the other side of the memory wall. i cant think of a way to kill him tho.

I killed him in the boxing ring I think it was a glitch though because when I assassinated him every one started running away then suddenly I went onto the final battle of the game and my xbox got the red ring thank god I sat on my xbox to fix it

Now thinking about it, if you could initiate the non-hidden blade glitch that occurs during unarmed fighting while dueling Dante, it would be possible to kill him. In addition, you could also kill him all the other times we had to throw him into the water because he was invulnerable.

I don't see how this would make your xbox freak out, though.

ok dante is now officially invincible. he can be resurrected after his assassination! kill him on the ship with throwing knives such that you remain unseen. now reveal yourself to silvio. when silvio recognizes you, the game reinitializes dante alive. dante doesnt move or attack, and he cant be attacked. hes... invincible.

That or save it for Stab's Eagle's Hunt project for AC2

Eagle's Hunt is the project Stab does for easter eggs and glitches in AC2 (mainly easter eggs). For example, the Giant Squid in the Assassin Tomb will be featured.

silvio can also be "pre-assassinated", only to be resurrected later by scripting of the game. i got the tip from a youtube viewer, and i was able to easily duplicate it. i combined it with a drowning/resurrection of dante and his resurrection after the story assassination - for a total of 3 resurrections of the 2 targets.

UPDATE: it turned out that the resurrection of Dante after the story assassination didn't really fit with the rest of the vid. i'll keep this glitch in mind to see if theres a better fit in another video.
