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. |
Morale was a mechanic in the Animus, versions 2.0 and ahead which tracked guards' motivation to fight in open combat. The values only applied once the user entered open combat, so any action performed before the initiation of combat did not affect the morale of the guards.[1][2][3][4]
Overview
Animus 1.28
The Animus 1.28 used by Abstergo Industries, had a basic system of morale. When Desmond relived Altaïr's memories, the lowest ranking guards would easily be scared by the deaths of their comrades, or superiors.
Guard Sergeants were much harder to scare, and would only probably run away if the leader, was killed.
Guard Captains were the bravest of the regular guards. They would hardly ever be scared away, no matter what Desmond did. However, if one of these was killed however, all the other lower ranking guards would be terrified, and probably run away.
Templar guards were a unique guard archetype, and the strongest and bravest of all the guards. They would never run away, regardless of the deaths of nearby guards. As these men were held in such high regard, whenever one of these duelled an opponent, the other guards would stand back, and watch. The death of one would completely shatter the nearby guards, few of whom would stand and fight.[1]
Animus 2.0
When Desmond relived Ezio's memories, the Animus used by the Assassins had an updated Morale system. The Animus 2.0 specified Morale Points for each guard archetype.
Brutes had 1000 Morale points in the Animus, and they never ran away unless disarmed and completely unable to find another weapon or get an improvised one. Militia guards had 20 Morale points, and were the most cowardly guards, likely to run away from a battle if it ever got too intense.
The death of any guard caused a drop in Morale of all the other guards. The death of any lower ranking guard caused a drop of morale by 5 points for all surrounding guards. But the if the disarmed guard himself couldn't find a replacement for his weapon, he would immediately run away. A Counter-kill, Disarm, or ground-assassination also caused a drop of 5 Points. Disarming an opponent and killing him with his own weapon reduced morale by 10 points. Killing a Seeker, or killing an enemy using a pistol was worth 20 points, and killing a Brute worth 30 points.
Every time Ezio took a hit the guards' Morale rose by 10 points, and if Ezio reached critical state, the guards would gain 25 points each. If Ezio ran away from a confrontation, it would add 25 points to every guard's Morale. At the Auditore Villa, Desmond could get Ezio to learn the skill of demoralising an enemy by pointing a pistol at him.[2][5]
When Desmond began to relive Ezio's memories in Rome, the morale system was slightly updated. the guard archetype that appeared in the other cities Ezio visited, had the same Morale stats that they had in previous cities.
Two new enemy types are introduced into the game: the Papal Guard and the Borgia Captain, both of which will never escape from combat. The death of either type of guard will result in a massive blow to the morale of surrounding enemies, more often than not leading to them fleeing from the fight.
Animus 2.03
In Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Janissaries and Templar Den Captains replace the previous guard archetypes. Like the Borgia Captains, some Templar Den Captains may flee on sight and are specifically noted by the Animus tutorial.
Equipment
In Brotherhood, the Dagger of Brutus, when equipped, will cause enemies to flee from combat quicker than they normally would. This is because of the fact that the Dagger has an inherent -20 Morale bonus, and because of its brutal finisher animations. The armor of Ishak Pasha and Vlad Tepes' Sword have similar effects.
