Ezio, my friend! How may I be of service? This article is in desperate need of a revamp. Please improve it in any way necessary in order for it to achieve a higher standard of quality in accordance with our Manual of Style. |
In the Assassin's Creed series, fists are the weakest form of fighting available to the player. Guards will not intervene with a fistfight, unless they themselves are attacked. However, if the player draws a weapon, they will intervene.
Assassin's Creed
In Assassin's Creed, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad can use his fists to fight or stun enemies at any time, though they are quite ineffective as the guards will still be using weapons. As a novice, they are the only form of combat he can use in a fight, though that is only for one mission. He mainly uses them in special situations, such as interrogating a target, or after being caught by a thug while attempting to pickpocket throwing knives, as drawing a weapon will cause them to flee.
Assassin's Creed II
In Assassin's Creed II, Ezio Auditore da Firenze is more skilled in fistfighting than his ancestor Altaïr. He can perform many different combination strikes, counter other fist fighters, throw sand in their faces, and eventually learn how to disarm foes and use their weapons.

The special attack while unarmed is to lean down and sweep sand into the opponent's eyes, breaking their defences, thus opening them up for a quick attack or even kill.
Fists also become a more viable tool for combat when the Metal Cestus, a hard steel hand-guard that strengthens the attack of the fists, becomes available for purchase from blacksmiths.
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood

In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood,Ezio is still able to disarm his opponents, but now has the added ability to kill them in one swift move by hitting them once more, thus performing a combination strike. This combination strike can also be done by simply hitting a guard, as long as he is not already in open combat. Guards can now also throw sand in Ezio's face, exactly as he can, but they do not require their hands to be free. However, Ezio can perform the same move with his weapon equipped, as long as he has no bullets or throwing knives left.
