Archers will be provoked by anyone in sight, save for other guards, on the rooftops and will usually ready their bows when they see one. Archers chase anyone in the rooftops, not just [[Ezio]], such as [[Pickpocket]]s and [[Borgia Messengers]]. They can be easily killed by grabbing them and throwing them from a high enough place. Otherwise, they act like Militia in which they are significantly less skilled at combat than their other counterparts making them easy to fight with. When Ezio has hired [[Thieves]], he orders the thieves to ''attack'' the Archers, instead of just luring them away.
Archers are always found on rooftops in all cities. They use longbows and medium weapons. They will shoot at[[Ezio| Ezio]] on sight despite his Notoriety level. Their arrows are dangerous as they do a conciderable damage and brake Ezio's armor easily. They will also hunt down Ezio and [[Pickpocket]]s or [[Borgia Messenger]]s on rooftops. If Ezio gets too close they will use their face-to-face weapons to hit him, but their very low armor and low direct combat abillities make them an easy target when close. They can also be thrown from rooftops to be killed easily. Although they aren't very quallified, in groups they can be lethal, as a small group holds Ezio back, while the rest hit him with their arrows.

Archers are a type of guard who appear in both Assassin's Creed and Assassin's Creed II and are commonly found on rooftops. They are always equipped with longbows and will shoot at the player when provoked, but will switch to their swords when the player gets near them.

Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines

Templar Archers are not as aware as the other archers in the other games and will usually only detect you and attack you when you are being chased. They are significantly dormant and oblivious to Altaïr, except when he tries to climb a structure. Altaïr can now assassinate from ledges, making them the prime targets of this technique.

Archers are always found on rooftops in all cities. They use longbows and medium weapons. They will shoot at Ezio on sight despite his Notoriety level. Their arrows are dangerous as they do a conciderable damage and brake Ezio's armor easily. They will also hunt down Ezio and Pickpockets or Borgia Messengers on rooftops. If Ezio gets too close they will use their face-to-face weapons to hit him, but their very low armor and low direct combat abillities make them an easy target when close. They can also be thrown from rooftops to be killed easily. Although they aren't very quallified, in groups they can be lethal, as a small group holds Ezio back, while the rest hit him with their arrows.
