The Helmschmied Drachen Armor was a set of armor worn by the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze.
Appearance
The robes below the waist appear similar to those of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, though possess a leather texture, rather than cloth. On the waist, the Assassin insignia is flanked by rows of throwing knife sheathes.[1]
The torso is completely covered with stylized metal plates. Underneath, the inner collar over Ezio's chest and neck is closed. The upper right arm guard extends higher than the shoulder; though that of the left omits this to make room for the cape.[1]
The matching bracers of the Drachen Armor do not sport either the Assassin or eagle logo, as Ezio's normal bracers do, and are worn in conjunction with leather gloves on each hand.[1]
The robes beneath the Drachen Armor cannot be dyed. Although the outfit hides the presence of equipped armor and the Climb Leap Glove, these items still function normally.[1]
Availability
Codes unlocking the Helmschmied Drachen Armor were available through any of the following:
- Purchase of the Codex or Auditore Edition of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.[2]
- Pre-order Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood from Amazon.com, Ubisoft.com, Steam (for the PC version), or Play.com. [citation needed]
- Purchase of The Da Vinci Disappearance DLC for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.[3]
- Pre-order the Italian edition of Assassin's Creed: The Fall, issue 2.[4]
Trivia
- "Helmschmied Drachen" is German for "Helmet Smith Dragon."
- Concept artwork shows that the robes of the Helmschmied Drachen Armor were intended to be colored white; however, in-game, the robes are primarily black.
- The Helmschmied armor also appears as a purchasable item in Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy, where its description states that it is "The finest in foreign engineering" and has a price of 200,000 florins.
- As with other cosmetic outfits in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, the Drachen Armor overrides the outfit Ezio is expected to be wearing in the game. This leads to some bugs:
- The Drachen Armor is visible even when Ezio is supposed to be disguised as a guard; however, other guards will not notice this change.
- When fighting for florins in the Caserma di Alviano, Ezio normally removes his armor for the fist-fighting. However, if the Drachen Armor is equipped, he remains in the armor.
- Whenever Ezio removes his hood (such as during cutscenes or at Monteriggioni), the Drachen's hood will remain upright.
- During the Cristina Memories, when wearing the Drachen Armor, Ezio is older and bearded rather than the clean-shaven youth he was in Assassin's Creed II.
