Poison darts are a new ranged weapon featured in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. This ability can be purchased from Leonardo da Vinci; he will, in turn, fashion a dart-enabling upgrade for the poison blade. They have the same effect as the poison blade, but are fired from distance in the same way as the hidden gun, making them extremely useful for stealth missions. Firing a dart is silent and aiming is almost flawless, similar to the crossbow. However, ammunition is shared with the poison blade, thus increasing the poison bag increases the number of poison darts the player can carry. Poison can be looted from dead guards, assassination targets, knocked out civilians, or purchased from Doctors.

Effects and use

When hit by a regular poison dart (fast poison dismisses the first stage), the target will first keep walking but act slightly ill until he draws his weapon and starts swinging it around, like the Poison Blade. After this, the target will eventually fall down and die. Guards won't notice Ezio when he shoots their comrades from a long enough distance. They will attack if you are close enough and they notice you firing a poison dart however. Poisoning guards (especially Seekers) is a good distraction that may hold any nearby guards' attention long enough for you to sneak in and assassinate them. Firing a dart at your target from a crowd of civilians will not draw attention to Ezio, allowing you to kill your target while blending. Unfortunately firing a poison dart at a horseman will not have any effect on him.
