76.112.47.154: /* Trivia */

{{quote|It seems to be a kind of...arma da fuoco - but as small as a hummingbird!|Leonardo da Vinci}} The '''Hidden Gun''' is one of the expansions of the [[Hidden Blade]] invented by [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] using the [[Pieces of Eden|Apple of Eden]]. After discovering the design for it on one of the [[Codex Pages]], [[Leonardo da Vinci]] managed to craft one for [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''. It consists of a small firearm with a very short barrel attached to the bottom of a Hidden Blade that, if aimed properly, can kill a target from a distance. It is unlocked right after you finish Sequence Eight. The weapon will return in ''[[Assassin's Creed Brotherhood|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' in both single and multiplayer.

==Usage==
[[File:Hiddengunac2.png|thumb|left|100px|The Pistol's inventory icon in ''Assassin's Creed II'']]
The Hidden Gun provides the deadly effectiveness of the Hidden Blade, but at long range. Though an excellent weapon for assassination from afar, it will give away the player's position immediately after firing by creating a loud noise that will alert any guards within the area. The Hidden Gun takes several seconds to lock onto a target, and the player is shown how far they are in the process by four lines that come closer together until they converge into a single line, signaling that it is fully aimed. Firing before a lock is acquired may provide a hit, though the chances are less likely with the less time spent aiming. Still it is possible to quickly switch to the pistol during a battle, take a random shot from as close as possible to the enemy, get a kill and resume fighting. Though this has its disadvantages, it can be used to quickly eliminate enemies without counter-kills. Also it can be used to kill enemies who don't seem like they will attack any time soon. It should be noted that aiming the Hidden Gun within guards' lines of sight will make them suspicious of the player. Against a few guards, aiming the gun for more than several seconds will also cause the group to lose morale and eventually flee, though this tactic will not be successful on [[Brutes]].

The Hidden Gun does not kill in a single shot during the battles with either [[Dante Moro]] and or [[Rodrigo Borgia]], though it is just as effective as usual when the player is required to assassinate them. The Hidden Gun and [[Throwing Knives]] are disabled in the [[Secret Locations]] that require the player to chase an [[Agile]], as said weapons would allow the player to kill the Agile before the intended time in the course, and would eliminate the entire chase altogether.

==Trivia==
*Altaïr is the true designer of the Hidden Gun, as Leonardo just decodes his Codex. Altaïr claims that he has invented a smaller version of the weapon his neighbors from the East have, using knowledge from the Apple of Eden. This provides an example of the apple's malevolence; it provided the information he asked for and helped him make a smaller weapon, but provided no information to improve the weapon further, such as for rifles.
*Every time the Hidden Gun is fired, a dog can be heard barking. Though not a surprise as dogs tend to bark at loud noises, no dogs are seen or mentioned in the game.
*Ammunition can be found as an item when searching the bodies of deceased guards despite the fact that they do not carry a firearm.
*The design and physical appearance of the Hidden Gun is similar to the concept of a Pistol Sword, only applied to the Hidden Blade instead.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines]]'' when you connect your PSP to a PS3, you will obtain a variant of the Hidden Gun that fires Throwing Knives instead of lead bullets.
*Bullets cost 150 florins each.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' the Hidden Gun will have the ability to fire poisoned projectiles, such as [[Poison Darts]], by selecting the [[Poison Blade]] on the weapon wheel. In doing this, Ezio can aim the Hidden Gun and fire a poisoned dart at the targeted person.
*It is also be a multiplayer ability for the multiplayer characters to use.
*In ''Brotherhood,'' Ezio will aim the Hidden Gun much faster than in ''Assassin's Creed II, ''due to him having much better skill with the weapon now.
*Also in ''Brotherhood, ''you will be able to buy an ammo capacity upgerade on UPLAY for 30u.

[[File:Poison_Darts.jpg|thumb|Ezio preparing to eliminate a guard silently with a Poison dart.]]

'''Poison darts''' are a new type of weapon featured in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. It is unknown as to how many darts the player can carry and whether they are obtained through [[blacksmiths]] or [[doctors]]. They are an ammunition type for the [[Pistol|hidden gun]] and have the same effect as the [[poison blade]]. They are exteremly useful for stealth missions. They will be given to [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] by [[Leonardo da Vinci]].

Crossbow

2010-11-02T14:25:22Z

76.112.47.154:

[[File:Crossbow.jpg|thumb|Ezio targeting a guard with the Crossbow.]]
The '''Crossbow''' is a weapon in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles]]''<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles">''[[Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles]]''</ref> and ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref> However, this weapon was originally seen in the introduction for the first ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'',<ref name="Assassin's Creed">''[[Assassin's Creed]]''</ref> but was not included due to historical inaccuracies.

After being spotted in concept art and being mentioned in the E3 2010 Single-Player walkthrough, Jean Francois Boivin confirmed that long-ranged weapons, such as the crossbow, will be available for use in the game, especially in advanced [[horse]] combat. Some [[guard]] archetypes (such as the [[Crossbowmen|Crossbowman]]) will also have the crossbow as a weapon. [[Ezio Auditore Da Firenze|Ezio]] is able to use the crossbow in melee combat, attacking guards with the metal lathe, then shooting them once they're on the ground. In the third developer diary, it was stated that the crossbow will be upgradeable, however, how you do this and what you upgrade is unknown.It also seems that ezio's aperentices can have a crossbow equiped also.

The max amount of ammo is suspected to be 25 bolts, and are supposedly purchasable from [[blacksmiths]]. The way the crossbow is fired seems to be of similar fashion to the [[pistol]], though faster; wherein locking onto an enemy and holding the "shoot" button causes diamond markings to close in and form a white line as the weapon is aimed.
