The Hidden Blade Assassin's Creed in Depth

Doubt anyone will actually find this useful, but if you are in need of entertainment go ahead and watch it. Its basically me infiltrating the banks using different methods. I was kind of short on time though so some of them had to be rushed. This is just part 1

To perform an eagle strike on Jacobo you first need to reanimate him. Basically you attack him with a weapon while your being attacked. Before you move him kill the guards outside the amphitheater and in the city entrance and lower your notoriety to prevent from being detected. To prevent him from teleporting after moving him from the interaction zone you need to poison him. The best time to do this is when you need to throw him once to move him out of the theater. After that don't throw him or the poison effect may be shortened. Drag him across Tuscany to the tower shown in the video. (this tower is next to the building where you first see Jacobo) You won't be able to drag him across some stairs in the city. Throw him in the right spot to be air tackled and climb up the tower. The poison will give you very limited time to perform an eagle strike on Jacobo, but luckily the tower has a straight line of ledges to climb up. When you jump off the tower change the camera view to target him for an air tackle.

This video was taken from both the Castel map and the new map Sienna. Its mainly a bunch of clips to show how poison works, I like it a lot as there is no kill animation so i can make a silent getaway after poisoning my target without being killed straight afterwards.

It also has some other clips of me using morph again to fool my pursuers

Now that I have the beta I will start posting some videos on it for those that don't have it and even those that have it but wanna see different playstyles.

A quick way to eliminate most of the guards in this mission while remaining unseen is to hire the mercenaries to fight for you. Guards will automatically join in the fight if they can see the battle, so all you have to do is get the battle started in a central location.

The Hidden Blade is happy have to SBIzokronus as the featured member for the month of October. I had the opportunity to interview SB, and I really enjoyed his responses. I hope you do, too:

The goal in this video is to kill all of the guards and Stefano da Bagnone without being spotted at all (no yellow bars), and without hiring mercenaries. (There's a neat trick to using mercenaries on this mission, which I will show in my next video.) This is a difficult mission to design due to the large number of guard patrols in a small area. I rely heavily on timed movements to avoid detection and careful placement of dead body distractions, which disrupt the guard patrols.

This is just a quick video to show how to enter Emilio's Palazzo without using Climb Leap or any exploits.
