In [[Assassin's Creed|''Assassin's Creed'']], [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] can use his fists to fight or stun enemies at any time, though they are quite ineffective as the guards will still be using weapons. As a [[novice]], they are the only form of combat he can use in a fight, though that is only for one mission. He mainly uses them in special situations, such as [[Interrogation|interrogating]] a target, or after being caught by a [[thug]] while attempting to [[pickpocket]] [[Weapons|throwing knives]], as drawing a weapon will cause them to flee.

In ''Assassin's Creed'', [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]]'s fists are also the only weapon he can use to [[interrogation|interrogate]] a target without killing or causing them to run, even though the target is always assassinated once Altaïr has his information. When attempting to [[pickpocket]] a [[thug]] for [[Weapons|throwing knives]], if he notices Altaïr stealing from him, he may start a fist fight. You can choose to punch back, or you can draw one of your [[Weapons|swords]] and he will immediately flee. The latter will attract the attention of nearby guards if you don't put it away immediately. As weak as fists are, they are your only weapon available as a [[novice]]. You shouldn't get used to them, as you are only a novice for one mission. At any time, you may use fists to knock out or incapacitate guards.

In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'',Ezio is still able to disarm his opponents, but now has the added ability to kill them in one swift move by hitting them once more, thus performing a combination strike. This combination strike can also be done by simply hitting a guard, as long as he is not already in open combat. Guards can now also throw sand in Ezio's face, exactly as he can, but they do not require their hands to be free. However, Ezio can perform the same move with his weapon equipped, as long as he has no bullets or throwing knives left.

==Stats==
In ''Assassin's Creed II'', the main character [[Ezio Auditore]] is more skilled in a fistfight than his predecessor Altaïr. He can perform combos, as well as being able to counter other fist fighters. He may also disarm [[File:Fistsac2.png|left|thumb|Inventory icon for Fists.]]those with weapons and use them against opponents, if he has learned the disarm skill. The disarm skill proves helpful when in open conflict with a Seeker, who wields a long weapon. They can be easily executed after they are caught weaponless.
Without the [[Metal Cestus]] upgrade, Ezio's fists have 1 damage, 5 speed, and 1 counter. The Metal Cestus boosts the damage stat to 3.


The special attack while unarmed is to lean down and sweep some sand into the opponent's eyes, opening the weaker enemies to an instant kill. You can earn yourself the achievement/trophy, ''Messer Sandman'', which is worth 10G or a Bronze trophy, by using the sand throwing move on 4 guards at once. Similarly, if your opponent has sufficiently low health, it is possible to perform an instant kill if you can get behind them.

Players should be aware that picking up a body will cause the game to switch automatically back to Ezio's fists.

Also, if you successfully disarm a guard and keep using his weapon after you kill him, the icon at the bottom left hand of the screen will be the fist icon.

Despite seemingly lethal actions, (like snapping or stomping on a hostile enemy's neck) the person will appear to be in a subdued state and will not be listed as a kill, enabling Ezio to "kill" [[civilians]]. However, during assassinations, these lethal actions do count as a kill to the assassination target. In addition, picking up someone in a subdued state and dropping them at least one story will stop their writhing around and they will be no different than a corpse.

In ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'', the player still has the ability to disarm their opponents but they have a new ability to simply kill them in one swift move by using their fists. The player can walk up to a guard and press X or Square (or the PC equivalent) while the player is using their fists and Ezio will perform a move, he may kick the guard's legs or break their leg, and then pull his neck over his shoulder; therefore knocking him out. This and many other moves besides are always available throughout the game.

Ezio, my friend! How may I be of service?

As a novice, they are the only form of combat he can use in a fight, though that is only for one mission. He mainly uses them in special situations, such as interrogating a target, or after being caught by a thug while attempting to pickpocket throwing knives, as drawing a weapon will cause them to flee.
