The Banker Juan Borgia can be turkey shooted by waypoint separation. To do this first kill the guards in the area to avoid detection. Then lure the Banker with a dead body to the edge of the ruins right above a haystack (you can either throw money and kill the character there or carry a dead body to that spot). Throw a smoke bomb to avoid being detected by the Banker, grab him, and drop him right over the edge above the haystack. If done correctly he will fall into the haystack, which will prevent from him taking any damage. He will no longer move since his waypoint is up in the ruins, and although that isn't far away he would have to walk around to the other side to get up there.

Eagle Strike After Waypoint Separation: Even after Waypoint Separation the target can be lured to places with dead bodies. I do an eagle strike from the top of one of the pillars (sorry if it wasn't fast enough).

Waypoint Separation Stunt: This is simply doing a stunt assassination where the Banker stands after the turkey shoot. I get as close as I can get without accidentally doing a leap of faith and perform a sideways jump.

Really nice, aurll. It's great that you were able to come up with something different. The dialogue you inserted was the best! Laughing out loud

Thanks, I got the idea from Ian's hiding in plain sight and turkey shoot videos. Cool Oh, and I found a way to be completely undetected by the Banker and the Baron if anyone is interested in seeing that.

For several weeks now, I've had a recording the entire In and Out memory without being detected and without using any hiding places. I've been waiting for a good time to publish it. I was hoping to release this weekend, but then I found the non-story assassination of Cesare, which I'll publish this weekend instead.

I'm curious to see what you have done for the Baron.

I was going to do an eagle strike for the Baron, but there isn't a place high enough (there is a Borgia tower outside the fortress, but the gate is closed). Ubisoft will pay for this! Angry Target lock trigger High profile trigger Armed hand

Nice work, Aurel. You always manage to come up with new stuff!

Thanks! This video got frontpaged pretty quick (Stabby just happened to be online). And the turkey shoot/hiding in plain sight was alot like Abu'l Nuquod from AC1.

One of the most interesting things I've seen from Brotherhood.

As Arrrogance said, creativity is scarce but the Banker Assassination definitely provides the most room for imagination and experimentation. Good job Smile
