A Silent Treatment for Garnier

In this video I take out all guards inside the Hospitalier fortress as well as most archers on the roof (I actually forgot one in the video, but that's a minor detail as killing him is trivial) before assassinating Garnier. I left the front gate guards as they were, because they're not really inside the fortress, and I truly believe taking them out anonymously is impossible. Besides, it looks pretty cool: all their buddies dead, behind their backs, and they don't even know how the assassin got in.
Here are some notes:

At the beginning of the video, I wait for a bit before I start moving. The reason I do this is because Garnier's first patient varies a bit, and I like to get this over with quickly. If Garnier goes left, I go right and vice versa.
Going outside and on top of the fortress serves a distinct purpose: it resets the guards awareness levels and clears out bodies. If you don't do this, it's impossible to take out the two remaining guards in the courtyard and the two guards I kill at 5:00, since they're in suspicious mode.
I use gentle pushing to separate the guards so they don't get alerted by me stabbing their buddies.
In the end I show that the door is weird. There's all kind of crazy collision around there.

Hope you enjoyed the video!

Thanks. I didn't look for any videos on it because I got the idea from your list. I have a semi-dynamic stunt on Abul done (from the top of the souk, with Abul running rather than Jubair), but that's insanely easy to set up, so I will redo that. For Jubair I already have a location.
The main problem is going to be perfect HB fights throughout MB7, that will take a while, so I'm not sure I'll get that. And, of course, I also need to beat a lot of blitz records. But that's kind of my specialty. Tongue

Takeaway message: expect more.

You're not trying to steal Eleven Man Blitz 3.0 from me... Shock

I'm not sure whether it'll be an Eleven Man Blitz. I kind of want it to be an EMB, but using the superfast blitzes feels like stealing so I don't really want to use those, despite them being the absolute fastest possible next to instant kills, which feel like stealing too. So I'm probably going to go old school blitz style for most things (I probably won't beat the Robert WR). The only thing where I feel it's okay to use an exploit is Majd where I found it myself.
...and even if it ends up being an EMB, it surely isn't getting called Eleven Man Blitz 3.0. I have a much better number in mind. Tongue

I love seeing the freedom of the original game...

Things I read say the developers of ACIV are looking to bring some of that freedom back. I hope they do.
