In the main screen press: CIRCLE, L2, X, SQUARE TRIANGLE, R2, L2

Go to a high roof when chased. Kill the guards that appear. After a few kills they will either run or give up.

Use the following trick for easy guard fights while saving a citizen. When trying to "save a citizen", run in, assassinate one guard with your hidden blade, then lock onto the closest guard and hold R1. When the guard comes in to attack, press Square to parry and kill the guard in usually one smooth, clean move. Repeat this for all guards to avoid taking damage.

After you beat the Game, when you go back to the story mode you can kill anyone without losing life.

When fighting the Master he will take away your ability to use radar and make it difficult to see. This also allows him to hit you once and kill you. Lock on to him and use a throwing knife against him. This will take away his power to blind you and make him easier to kill.

When you go to Jerusalem and do the assassination with the guards surrounding you, do not try to fight them off. Instead, turn around and run up the ladder to get to the second floor. A short intermission sequence will show your target running away and up another ladder. Hold R1 + X and run across the chandeliers. The ladder will be to the right. Run up the ladder and another short intermission sequence will show your target on top of another building. Chase him down and have your wrist blade enabled (press Up) Then, press L1 to lock onto your target while still chasing him down. When you get close enough, the word "Assassinate" will appear for Square in the upper right of the screen. Press it and you will complete your task. After another intermission sequence, evade the guards by jumping onto building roofs, hiding, etc. Make your way over to the bureau to complete the memory.

To know where all the flags and templars are, just visit this website: www.assassinscreed-maps.com/Maps.htm then select what area you are in, it will show the positions of them, and pictures of them.

After the guards (or most of them) leave William, drop down from the castle and slay William. Afterward, "de-target" or deselect, and run up into the castle buildings and battlement to get away. This is the fastest way of completing the mission.

Only attempt this technique if they are fluent in the Rank 2 skill "Counter" and they have enough synchronization bars (a.k.a., life bars). One and a half rows of bars will do. When in battle, equip your hidden blade. With this equipped, all of your counters will score an instant kill. You can even instantly kill tougher ranked guards (for example, the Teutonic guards in Acre when hunting Sebrand). Also, most of the time using the hidden blade in battle will scare the last one or two (even three if you are lucky) guards, causing them to run away. However because you do not have a weapon that is sufficient enough to block a full sized enemy blade, all incoming attacks will hurt you.

After you get the "target" to a safe area to "interrogate" them, punch them first then "grab" them for faster completions. It will take about two grabs to quickly finish them. However, into the last three quarters of the game you may have to grab them up to, but exceeding, four times.

When you go to bed after Memory Block 2, you will notice your closet door is open. Hit any button to get a piece of paper Desmond notes as a code. The code will unlock your bedroom door which will allow you to be able to go out as often as you like after you are put to bed, as well as to open the meeting room area. You can also pick up various items to unlock Lucy's password.

After killing Al Muaiam and returning to the real world, listen to the conversation about how they going to kill you. Turn on your Eagle Vision and look at the floor. There are some mixed up letters on both sides of the Amnius. You should see on the side closest to the main door:

M O R Y M N O E S

E N C E O L C H T

H O N B T L O T C

T D E O S A T O A

One item you can pick up after being able to unlock your bedroom door is Lucy's password. You can then investigate her e-mails, which entail a short secondary story line. After you complete the last Memory Block, go back outside your room. Go to Lucy's computer. In "Deleted Items" is an e-mail which entails her talking to someone about a rescue, then the last reply comes back as:

WondEr Why It is everyone Laughs at you? 

i'll Let you guess. let's just say she's

If you are struggling to move around different cities and finding mission objectives climb view points. You can find these on the map and the symbol is an eagle. It is better to look at the view points closer to shaded areas as these will reveal different routes on the map and different missions. This means you can assassinate people quicker.

Once you have all objectives revealed you don't have to complete all six. You only have to complete 3 of the shown objectives to be given the order to finally assassinate a target.

Once you have nade it through to the harbour, you will find Robert de Sable, he will challenge you to a fight to the death.

Before facing Robert himself, you need to defeat some of his guards. Using counter attcks are strongly recommended, but of course, some of the guards cannot be killed with one clean sweep of a couter attack. Once his guards have been defeated, Robert himself will challenge you.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KILL ROBERT WITH ANYTHING BUT YOUR HIDDEN BLADE.

Keep yourself in counter mode and do either of the following

*Kill Robert with a normal attack counter.
This works well, but Altairs health will probably be nearly empty by now, so be careful that Robert doesnt hit you, this is highly possible

-OR-

*Dodge all of Robert's Blade attacks and wait until he grabs you, perform a grab break and when he is on the ground, kill him with the hidden blade

Be careful when using both of these techniques that Robert doesnt hit you...if he hits you once, he will probably perform a combo...which in some cases...can kill instantly.

Travel to the southwestern-most vigilantes in the poor district of Damascus. On one of the buildings around them, you should see an outcropping in the wall, climb on it and you will see that it looks exactly like G1 Optimus Prime in vehicle mode. Note that there may be more than one outcropping in the area, so look carefully. If you lose sight of the vigilantes, you have gone too far.

Go to the practicing fighting ring at the castle, and push the guy to the wall, then wait for him to get up, them attack him with your sword (only lightly,dont counter attack, ormstrong attack, only tap square) and he should fall through the floor, with only his head poking through the floor, but if you attack him, he will shoot up through the floor, then fall back down.
