It is possible, in [[Florence]] and [[Tuscany]], to create a small battle via banks. To do this the player needs to come across a [[Pazzi]] owned bank (the soldiers are dressed in Pazzi red, not [[Medici]] yellow), and either attract Medici guards to the Pazzi ones or attract the Pazzi guards to a Medici patrol (by angering the guards and getting them to follow the player). Just lead them to each other and watch them brawl. On a rare occurrence, a guard may still target you rather than his other enemies, just silence him and keep your distance. If you want to have even more fun; Invite a few [[Mercenaries]] or [[Thieves]] into the brawl, or even better throw a few coins into the midst of the battle and watch the [[Civilians]] get massacred.
Avoiding armed conflict is ideal when looting banks, thus it is recommended to make use of [[Courtesans]], [[Thieves]] or [[Mercenaries]] in order to distract the guards. Alternately, the player may simply throw coins so as to attract a cover of [[Civilians]].

on rooftops). If the player can find them, he or she will receive a certain amount of florins.

Chests in cities are protected by either a single guard, or by a team of up to four guards.

Buildings containing Codex Pages and Chests are referred to as Banks in the Animus Database, and bear a slight resemblance to Giovanni Auditore's office, albeit much smaller. Rebecca states that although all families own banks, most of these banks are owned by the Pazzi family, and that breaking into them (by silencing the guards) will be worth your time.

Banks will always contain two chests or one Codex page. The amount of money you gain from each of these chests varies greatly, from rewards of 100 to over 1000 florins.

If a treasure icon is lit dimly, this means that the treasure chest is located either above or below your current altitude.

At the Art Merchant in each city, you can buy treasure maps that show the locations of treasure chests within that city.

In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood

In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, treasure chests operate much as they did in Assassin's Creed II, though they not only contain florins, but necklaces and rings as well.

Armed Disputes and Battles

Avoiding armed conflict is ideal when looting banks, thus it is recommended to make use of Courtesans, Thieves or Mercenaries in order to distract the guards. Alternately, the player may simply throw coins so as to attract a cover of Civilians. Additionally, it is possible, in Florence and Tuscany, to incite a small brawl using banks. To do this, the player must come across a Pazzi owned bank (guarded by soldiers dressed in Pazzi red, not Medici yellow), and either attract Medici guards to the Pazzi ones, or attract the Pazzi guards to a Medici patrol (by angering the guards and getting them to follow the player). Just lead them to each other and watch them fight.
