&lt;div&gt;[[File:Blending.png|thumb|300px|alt=Blending|Altaïr Blending to avoid the attention of some Guards.]]&#039;&#039;&#039;Blending&#039;&#039;&#039; is the slowest and stealthiest method of movement in &#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed]]&#039;&#039;. When Blending, Altaïr moves very slowly, so as not to arouse suspicion. If he is on foot, he will lower his head fold his hands and imitate a [[Scholar]]. Altaïr can even blend in with a group of scholars for extra security. If he is on a [[horse]], he will just move (walking the horse) very slowly. When guards are Informed (drawn swords), Blending is the best way of avoiding attention.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Usage==&lt;br /&gt;
To Blend, while in Low Profile, hold the Feet button ([[File:PlayStationX.svg]] on PS3, A on Xbox 360 or the Space Bar on the PC&#039;s default layout). Informed guards (with swords drawn) are much less likely to notice you if you Blend. Xbox RULES!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===When &#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039; to blend===&lt;br /&gt;
Blending is not always effective. Some examples of when blending is ineffective:&lt;br /&gt;
*You approach a [[Templar]] (they always recognize Altaïr very quickly).&lt;br /&gt;
*You approach a stationary guard (or guards). They will always push you back, even if you Blend. If you join a &#039;&#039;group&#039;&#039; of Scholars, however, they will always let you pass through.&lt;br /&gt;
*You are being chased by guards. Without a group of Scholars, Blending does &#039;&#039;not&#039;&#039; act as a hiding spot. If there &#039;&#039;is&#039;&#039; a group of Scholars, however, you can use them as you would any other hiding spot.&lt;br /&gt;
*You are standing on a rooftop. [[Archers]] will remind you that it&#039;s socially unacceptable to be up there even if you Blend.&lt;br /&gt;
*You approach an archer in the [[Kingdom]]. Kingdom archers defend the area around their post including the ground.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Scholars==&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Scholars}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Blending.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Altaïr blending with a group of Scholars]]&lt;br /&gt;
Altaïr can unlock Scholars (as well as [[Vigilantes]]) by completing [[Save Citizen]] side missions. Scholars patrol the 3 cities in groups of four, moving in a diamond formation. If Altaïr approaches an unaware group and Blends, he will lower his head, join the group, and walk with them automatically. He may leave at any time by pressing the Feet button again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Blending in a group of Scholars, Altaïr is even better concealed than when he blends normally. If Altaïr is being chased by Guards and he breaks their line of sight, he may use Scholars as he would any hiding spot. By approaching them, Blending, and joining the group, he is in effect entering a moving hiding spot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, guards will always step aside to allow a group of scholars through, even in situations where they would not do the same if it were just Altaïr blending. This can prove very useful for getting into restricted areas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Assassin&#039;s Creed II ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Paola]] teaches to Ezio how to blend in with the crowd. In this game, there is no button meant for Blend. Instead, you automatically blend when you walk into a group of people(courtesans, scholars, priests, common folk etc.) or moving with the crowd.&amp;amp;nbsp&lt;br /&gt;
