Armor of Brutus

[[File:Armour_of_Romulus.jpg|thumb|300px|Ezio wearing the Armor of Brutus.]]
The '''Armor of Brutus''' is an unbreakable set of armor available in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. The armor was the greatest possession of a mysterious cult called the [[Followers of Romulus]]. The armor is unlocked by obtaining all Romulus scrolls and keys from the six [[Lairs of Romulus|secret lairs]] spread throughout the city of [[Rome]].

It is the strongest armor in game and is found alongside the [[Dagger of Brutus]]. Like the [[Armor of Altaïr]], the Armor of Brutus has 25 health diamonds, and cannot be dyed nor broken.

==Appearance==
The armor looks much bulkier than [[Ezio Auditore]]'s [[Master Assassin]] robes due to the fur cloak that is padded along the pauldron. The fur is implied to be a tribute to Romulus, and thus is likely to be wolf fur. There is a silver eagle on the right shoulder that holds the cape up, as well as on the waist area where the [[Assassin insignia|Assassin symbol]] would normally be, which has been relocated to be painted right above it, on the mid-abdomen section of the armor. Another [[Assassin insignia|Assassin symbol]] is engraved onto the back of the armor.

The armor comes with a grey, short-sleeved robe that is worn underneath the breastplate. The bottom of the robes are in three layers, each one on top of the other, and come down to Ezio's knees. However, the bottoms act almost like a kilt, completely covering the legs, whereas the Master Assassin robes part at the sides to keep movement unencumbered. This does not affect mobility in the game, however.

The armor set consists of both metal and leather. The chest armor and spaulders are mostly metal, while the vambraces and greaves are completely leather. The vambraces and greaves are also very plain-looking pieces of armor, having very little design compared to the rest of the armor. Unlike the vambraces bought in the game, the Vambraces of Brutus cover both of Ezio's forearms instead of only his right. The hood and cape, which appear to be connected, are colored red with a golden trim on the cape.

==Trivia==
*The eagle-motif of the armor, the beak-shaped appearance of the hood, and the Assassin insignia on the armor's back strongly implies that [[Marcus Junius Brutus]], the original owner of the armor, was a member of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]].
*The Armor of Brutus gives the same amount of health to Ezio as the Seusenhofer armor set, though the latter allows Ezio to wear his regular, customizable robes.
*After wearing the Armor of Brutus and switching back to the Seusenhofer armor set, the Seusenhofer set becomes unbreakable, despite the game signaling damage.
*It is not confirmed whether Ezio actually acquired the Armor of Brutus in his lifetime, as it is not mandatory to have the armor to obtain full Synchronization. As shown in the cutscene of his fight with [[Cesare Borgia]] during the beginning of the game, as well as during his return to the [[Villa Auditore]] ruins, he is not shown wearing the Armor of Brutus.
*It is unexplained as to why the armor is so durable, unlike the Armor of Altaïr, which had been fortified based on knowledge from the [[Sixth Apple|Apple of Eden]], as explained in the [[Codex]].
*As the armor is much older than the Armor of Altaïr, it is more of a predecessor, than a successor.
*The Seusenhofer armor set actually has +1.25 more resistance than the Armor of Brutus. However, as the armor is breakable, these effects can be quickly canceled after taking damage. Also, this effect only applies to the full set of Seusenhofer armor.
*The armor has become very unpopular amongst a majority of the players due to it's bulkiness and kilt like look, and most players dub it with the U-play Armor of Altair outfit.

Assassin apprentice

2010-12-16T01:39:42Z

76.98.62.125: /* Customization */

{{Quote|The [[Liberation of Rome|liberation of Roma]] has begun. If you choose to flee, do so now, but if you choose to fight, stand with me against the [[House of Borgia|Borgia]].|[[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] to one of the rescued [[civilians]], after saving him from corrupted Borgia [[guards]].|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood}}
[[File:Assassins1503E3.png|thumb|400px|Ezio, with four apprentices.]]
The '''apprentices''', also referred to as recruits, are [[Assassins]] who were formerly [[citizens]] [[Save Citizen|saved]] by [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] from the rough streets of [[Rome]], during the war against the [[Templars]]. They have subsequently devoted themselves to learning the ways of the Assassin Order, motivated by their lust for revenge against the [[House of Borgia|Borgia]] for corrupting the beautiful city of Rome.

Operating out of the [[Tiber Island]] headquarters, the apprentices were sent on [[Side Missions and Events#Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood|missions]] across [[wikipedia:Europe|Europe]] in order to improve their skills and [[Combat and weapon tactics|combat]] experience beyond their traditional training. However, the apprentices did not always survive these missions. When not on missions assigned by Ezio outside Rome, the apprentices would support the efforts of Ezio and his allies, providing reinforcement during Ezio's own missions.

==''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''==
==='''Recruiting'''===
After destroying a [[Borgia Tower]], symbols will randomly appear on your map where citizens can be recruited. You can choose whether to save them or not, but they will eventually die if you don't. After saving a citizen from the guards, you'll have a choice to either speak to them or leave them, if you speak to them they will always join you, if you don't talk to them, they will eventually disappear. After successfully recruiting someone for his cause, Ezio sends them to [[Niccolò Machiavelli]] to become an Assassin. You can only recruit twelve apprentices (all of whom can be either male or female), but if one dies, they can always be replaced.

==='''On the Field'''===
In-game, Ezio is able to have up to six support him during his missions, and each time they fight, they will gain experience points to rank up. On the field, Ezio signals these Assassins by raising his arm and clenching his fist, indicating that they should strike. This signal, followed by an eagle's screech, is known as a "B.A.M." or a Brotherhood Assistance Maneuver. The apprentices can appear from anywhere, usually from inside hiding spots or over ledges. Particularly when against a mounted enemy, the apprentices can also come in on horseback, and can engage in horse chases. On rare occasions, when there are no hiding spots or buildings to appear from, the apprentices may be teleported into the battle by the [[Animus]].

==='''Missions'''===
During the course of the game, players have the opportunity to send the apprentices to different cities across Europe to complete tasks and assassinations. If they finish the mission, the apprentices earn money for Ezio and experience points; but if they die, they will be lost forever. The chances of the Assassins completing the mission depend on how difficult the mission is, the amount of experience the Assassins already have, and how many Assassins you send. Though sending more Assassins increases the probability of success, each receive less experience, as the total experience gained must be divided equally among all of them. Missions take place in Rome, Florence, Venice, Constantinople, Lisbon, Barcelona, Moscow, Paris, London, Cologne and Calicut.

==='''Customization'''===
Players can also customize the apprentices' [[Tailors|colors of their robes]]. Each one of the apprentices also has a different personality. Later on, players can use the experience points they've gained to upgrade their apprentices' [[Armor|armor]] and [[weapons]]. Once an apprentice achieves [[Ranks|rank]] ten ([[:File:Rank Assassino.jpg#file|Assassino]]) his/her armor will change and appear to look almost identical to Ezio's Master Assassin outfit, only having very subtle differences such as the cloak where the color is decided by the customized color they wore as "Students". These Master Assassin robes that the apprentices wear cannot be customized however, and always remain as Assassin White.

==='''BAM System'''===
As Ezio recruits and trains more apprentices, he will gain signals, which appear as red bars underneath the [[Synchronization]] bar. Up to 3 signals can be earned. The signals represent the amount of times Ezio can use the BAM system (Brotherhood Assistance Maneuver) which allows him to call his apprentices to aid him in the field.

The first signal is rewarded once one Assassin apprentice is recruited, then another when you have 4 Assassin apprentices. The third and final signal is unlocked once you have 6 Assassin apprentices. Once Ezio has used a signal, the signal won't be usable until roughly one minute has passed, and using all three of them will not allow Ezio to use the BAM until the first one has recharged. BAM signals can become unavailable if an insufficient number of apprentices are present in the guild, such as if some have left on missions.

Apprentices can also ride and use horses in battles, either attacking on horseback with their sword or hidden gun, or performing assassinations from horseback.

The apprentices are capable of three attack strategies:
*'''The Arrow Storm''': This move is particularly useful if Ezio is blocked by a group of guards. He signals to the apprentices, and they shoot arrows at the targets and kill any in sight. If there is a large number of apprentices to aid Ezio, all the guards will be killed simultaneously. You must have at least six Assassin apprentices at your disposal to use the arrow storm, as it requires all 3 signals to use.
*'''The Air Assassination''': This move is where the apprentices jump and assassinate the indicated targets. If there are some enemies remaining, the apprentices engage them in combat.
*'''The Smoke Assassination''': A combination of air assassinating and [[smoke bombs]], the apprentices jump and assassinate as many enemies as possible, then throw smoke bombs, creating a distraction and allowing Ezio to move in and attack as well.

==='''Known In-game Apprentices'''===
The following is an alphabetical list of known names of apprentices that appear in the game, which are randomly generated for each citizen Ezio saves:
*Alighiero Abate
*Annetta Abete
*Allesandro Albarella
*Bettina Aliotti
*Annetta Barbieri

==Trivia==
*While all apprentices wear default uniforms similar to Ezio's, not all of them are ever exactly the same.
*The apprentices are equipped with only a single [[hidden blade]], unlike Ezio who is granted two. They do, however, acquire a hidden gun, smoke bombs and various melee weapons as they level up.
*Though you can only have twelve apprentices at a time, the ability to recruit them is infinite, which means that, even if many of them die in battle, they can always be replaced.
*Apprentices are able to grab the horse of a dismounted enemy. This prevents its escape, and allows either Ezio or the Assassin himself or herself to ride it.
*Gabriel Graziani, the Community Developer for ''Brotherhood'', had once stated that there will be a special cutscene when an Assassin dies. Although there is no such cut scene, Ezio may approach and close the eyes of the fallen Assassin, honoring them.
*It was stated by developers that the player could pick a single Assassin recruit to be a "right-hand Assassin." However, this action is not present in any form in the game.
*Once an apprentice is promoted to the rank of ''Assassino'', there is a cut scene showing the Assassin performing a [[Leap of Faith]] into the [[Tiber River|Tiber]], while Ezio and Niccolò watch. (Even though they cannot swim, they somehow survive the leap of faith into the river.)
*Assassins can't swim, but when they fall in water they are just gone and not dead, so you could use them again later.
*When managing Assassins for an Assassination contract, even when the odds of success are 100%, sometimes the mission can still be failed, although you will not lose the Assassin(s) used for that contract.
*It is possible to kill an apprentice by using the [[First Apple|Apple of Eden]] with him/her in the blast range.
*There is an interesting glitch when both an Assassin and Ezio try to assassinate the same guard simultaneously. You will both appear to leap on him in high profile, but Ezio will then promptly teleport onto the next closest guard, killing him as well.
*Sometimes when Assassins are called into battle, they will jump out of haystacks, without any explanation of how they got there, or how long they had been waiting inside.
*The Assassins receive no damage from falling, even from the top of the [[Castel Sant'Angelo]].
*Assassin Recruits can sometimes be heard saying "Requiescat in pace" when they kill an enemy.
*When reaching the rank of ''Assassino'', the recruit will acquire a sword that is identical to the swords used by the [[Masyaf]] guards in ''Assassin's Creed''.

Armor of Brutus

2010-11-20T18:20:52Z

76.98.62.125:

{{Stub}}This is the armor thought to be worn by Marcus Junius Brutus, the famous assassin of Julius Cesar.&nbsp
[[File:Armour_of_Romulus.jpg|thumb|300px|Armor of Brutus]]The '''Armor of Brutus''' is a set of armor available in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. The armor was the greatest possession of a mysterious cult, the [[Sons of Romulus]]. The armor is unlocked by obtaining all Romulus scrolls from the six [[Sons of Romulus Lairs|secret lairs]] throughout the city of [[Rome]].

It is the strongest armor in game and is obtained after collecting all six keys of Romulus. It is found along with the [[Dagger of Brutus]]. Like the [[Armor of Altaïr]], the Armor of Brutus has 25 health diamonds.

==Appearance==
The armor looks much bulkier than Ezio's Master Assassin robes due to the fur that is padded along the shoulders. The fur obviously indicates the Sons of Romulus cult, and is most likely wolf fur. There is a silver eagle on the right shoulder that holds the cape up. There is also a silver eagle where the Assassin symbol would normally be, which has been relocated to being painted right above. The bottom of the robes are in three layers, each one on top of the other, and come down to Ezio's knees. However, the bottoms act almost like a kilt, completley covering the legs, where as the Master Assassin robes part on the sides. This does not affect mobility.

Dagger of Brutus

2010-11-20T18:05:03Z

76.98.62.125:

[[File:ACBDAGGER.PNG|thumb|Dagger of Brutus]]The '''Dagger of Brutus''' is a legendary dagger that will be available in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. It is said to be the same dagger that Marcus Junius Brutus used to brutally kill Gaius Julius Caesar. Having this special weapon equipped will strike fear into the hearts of [[civilians]], and will make [[guards]] flee faster from fights due to it's unique brutal kill animations. It is obtained alongside the [[Armor of Brutus]].

One of the best weapons in the game, this dagger has 5-star stats across the board.
