The Agile Guards are a lightly-armored, fast guard archetype. They run
even faster than Ezio and are skilled at Free Running. Agile Guards are designed to flee and alert nearby guards if Ezio is successful in killing a Brutes or most of the enemies, rather than staying to fight or chase Ezio.
Combat
Agiles wield knives and short blades, such as the Sultan's Knife or Notched Cinquedea .
If you confront an Agile, you can attack him until you see that he is becoming tired (you will know he is tired when he is lowering his arms and panting), then, he will be an easy prey for countering or for a combo. This is explained by the trainer in Monteriggioni.
When they do draw their weapon out, they will just do weak attacks and only attack when he gets an opportunity to strike. Since they are very fast, they will dodge most of Ezio's basic attacks and then sometimes throw in a quick attack of their own. Also, Agiles are not very strong, which means they won't be able to counter Ezio's counter-kills. Their armor strength is identical to that of Standard Guards.
Strategy
Combat: Fighting an Agile requires patience. They can, and will, dodge your attacks. If you wait for them to attack, you can easily counter them for a one-hit-kill.
Escape: Agiles are very fast on foot, however, using free-running to traverse buildings will lose them. They possess the same free run acrobatics Ezio can do, without the ability to scale buildings. The best method of escape is jumping into water. If you aren't near water, and you can't seem to escape them, the best way to finally rid yourself of an Agile is to just attempt to fight them.
A minor game mechanic that can be exploited to ensure escape from Agiles on foot is to jump whenever you see them catching up to you, as this will cause the Agile to stop running.
Ranking
Agiles are found in all cities, though more often the larger ones. They are usually found near heavily armored guards such as Brutes and Seekers.
Special Agiles
Usually, a shinier and more abstract design in armor distinguishes a higher level of skill in an agile. In addition, the Assassination Targets Checco and Ludovico Orsi have some of the Free Running ability of Agiles. Certain allies, such as Rosa, have the mobility of an Agile.

Trivia
- When an agile is running after you, his attacks can be avoided by jumping forward.
- During the Tank sequence in the memory Hell on Wheels, Agiles can be seen using guns for the first time.
