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. |
Borgia towers are large towers set up by the Borgia in Rome, used to spread their influence throughout the city. To stop this oppression, Ezio Auditore da Firenze has to kill each tower's Captain, and then burn the towers down. To escape the collapsing structure, he performs a Leap of Faith.[1] The tower also functions as theview point for the surrounding area. There are twelve towers (and Captains) in total, and each Captain can act differently when they spot him; wherein some might flee, while others choose to fight. If Ezio lets the Borgia Captain escape, he will have to wait a full 12 hours (in-game) for the Captain to regroup with his guards before he can try to kill him again. With each tower blown up, the Borgias' influence decreases in that particular district, which also provides its merchants the opportunity to reopen their shops and allows Ezio to recruit one more potential assassin into the guild. Crime will decrease, as bandits will start to leave and the number of guards in that area will decrease.[2]The map on the pause menu identifies the towers with a small castle icon, unlike regular view points which are marked with an eagle. To enter a Borgia tower, Ezio will sometimes need to find and access it using a secret entrance.[3]
Once Ezio has destroyed a Borgia tower, it will function as an Assassin tower, which works in the same way as a pigeon coop (assassin recruit contracts and skill point distribution).
