Assassin's Creed

"Assassin!"
―Guard on Damascus

During the course of the first Assassin's Creed, there are two types of guards: Soldiers and Archers. The archers are mostly the same, but the soldiers vary on skill, which can be identified by their helmets. The shinier the helmet, the stronger the guard.

Assassin's Creed II

"Assassino!"
―Guard on Venice

In Assassin's Creed II, there are five types of enemy guards:

One of the new guards is the "Agile", which, as the name suggests is a very fast, lightly armored enemy. They also have the ability to climb and run around rooftops like Ezio, leading to chase sequences.

Next, there is the archer, which is a guard armed with a bow and a sword.Sometimes they have a mace instead of a sword.

There is also the brute, who is a heavily armored and equipped (weapons such as maces and axes), and rather slow guard type. Their armor makes them tough to bring down, but also makes them cumbersome and slow,which makes them the human tanks of the game. They are not very intelligent, and won't be able to tell Ezio from anyone else in a crowd. A good way to make short work of them is to disarm them and counterattack.

There is the standard guard who is armed with just a sword. They are seemingly middle-class enemies as they are a mix of agility,strength and wits.

Finally there is the Seeker, who is often called "paranoid"; they are a special guard type, because they have the ability to check haystacks and other hiding places, although Ezio can counter kill the seeker if that happens. They are armed with long spears or halberds, giving them an increased reach in combat. They seem to be like Brutes with the exception that they have less armor and are more agile. The best way of dispatching Seekers is either 3 assassination methods, grab from behind an slit their throat with a short weapon (daggers,etc.) , or just disarm them and combo attack them with their weapon.
