For the speedrun of ACR, I'm currently recording a segment including this memory (S5M2). But the rioters are really annoying : despite having 1 bomb, 10 knives and 12 bullets, it's still a pain.

Can anyone give me a tip, so that I don't shoot rioters instead of ennemies? If not I'll have to keep retrying until I got luck...

Have you tried sneaking behind the enemies and attacking when they're fighting the rioters?

Yes, but I use this method as the last choice, since you have to move. On the contrary, using ammunition makes it faster, but rioters can sometimes (too many times according to me) stand between Ezio and the target.

I finally managed, with luck, to finish this segment 5 seconds faster than my goal. Hopefully you can watch the entire run next month or so.

Congrats on this mini breakthrough. Although speed runs are not my thing, I think it's fun to watch how quickly people can play games that take me over a month to complete. I admire the dedication and outside-the-box thinking needed to accomplish them.

In addition, although I don't contribute creatively to this site, I admire those that are able to sit down, find an exploit, and find something fun to do with it.
