Talk:Master Assassin

Shouldn't Niccoló Machiavelli and Mario Auditore be listed here? Since both were grand masters at some point.Dattish 15:36, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Did Malik not become a master assassin though? I'm pretty sure he did. MorennAC 10:23, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

Im pretty sure he didn't. Altair rubbed it in his face with the quote, "Im superior to you, in BOTH SKILL AND RANK" I think that's enough proof WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 10:29, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, and then Altair screwed up and became a novice, whereas Malik got his own bureau. I assumed that bureau leaders were master assassins?

MorennAC 10:57, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

No they are Rafiqs, a different rank. WarClown^{Wanna Talk?} 11:15, July 21, 2010 (UTC)

By the way, Altaïr said "I'm your superior, in both title and ability." Just heard him say that. :P -- Master Sima Yi 11:48, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Sanctuary

If Wei Yu and Qulan Gal etc. weren't Master Assassins, then why do they stand right next to Altaïr in the sanctuary? -- Master Sima Yi 11:48, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

• There is absolutely no mention whatsoever the Altaïr's statue is in the Sanctuary because he is a Master Assassin; Mario calls them "legendary", which Altaïr is. You can be legendary, without having the rank of Master Assassin. Likewise, nothing in-game indicates them to be Master Assassins. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 13:33, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

The same can be said for Ezio Auditore: where is it said he is a Master Assassin? -- Master Sima Yi 14:02, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

The blurb for Brotherhood explicitly calls Ezio, a Master Assassin. If you looked at the source, you'd see that. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 16:07, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

Oh yeah, you're right. I'm not having my day... -_- -- Master Sima Yi 18:11, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

It's fine, no worries. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 18:17, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

um, on the Sanctuary page it does specificly say "It houses seven statues of seven Master Assassins." so shouldn't we go ahead and add them? Zachariah Zuan 01:08, January 28, 2011 (UTC)

Hey I just noticed what Zachariah has mentioned above aswell. Taking into consideration what Jasca points out, it does not state that the assassin's in the sanctuary are Master Assassins... I have therefore taken the liberty to re-word this accordingly. Lord of the Creed 17:20, January 31, 2011 (UTC)

thanks for checking and doing that, I was just making sure, but this seems pretty accurate "In 1227, after Genghis Khan defeated the Tangut people, Qulan Gal shot Genghis Khan's horse with a bow, causing him to fall off and succumb to his injuries, for which Qulan Gal was hailed as a Master Assassin." Zachariah Zuan 23:36, February 2, 2011 (UTC)

Grand Master

Where is it actually said that a Master Assassin isn't actually the Grand Master? -- Master Sima Yi 12:51, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

• The first game. Altair is called a Master Assassin, whilst Al Mualim is Grand Master. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 13:38, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Perotto Calderon

I need a second opinion here. Though it's never really said outright in Project Legacy, is it enough to assume that Perotto Calderon was a Master Assassin given he was allowed to take an understudy/apprentice and had dual hidden blades? =GuardDog 12:51, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Assume? No, it's not. We never add assumption or speculation on articles. -- Master Sima Yi 12:52, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Sima's right, assumptions aren't allowed, no matter how much they may be implied. I'm of the same opinion that Calderon was a Master Assassin as well, due to the obvious reasons you've already stated, Guard. However, since there's nothing explicitly stating that he was, we can't put it officially on the article. (Hence why it's in the trivia instead, "...Calderon was implied to be a Master Assassin..." The same sort of thing goes for Bill Miles / William M. -- we all know they're more than likely the same person, but we can't do anything pretaining to that until we have official proof. -Assassin-of-Rayne- 13:07, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Kay, got it. Thanks, both of you. =GuardDog 13:27, January 6, 2011 (UTC)

Apprentices

Do all the apprentices earn the title of Master Assassin at Rank 10? If not please remove that reference on the Hidden Blade Page under Basic Usage - Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - Apprentices.

Subject 12 16:22, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

you don't need to be a master assassin to use hidden blade, just become an Assassin Zachariah Zuan 15:50, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Master Limit

how many Master Assassins can their be at any one time? is there a limit to like, one per branch, like 1 in Italy, 1 in the UK and such or can they're be limitless? it'd make sense to have a limit imo Zachariah Zuan 15:52, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

If we knew, it would be in the article. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 17:20, March 30, 2011 (UTC)

Well considering they have revealed in Revelations that you can have Master Assassin's to protect each Assassin Den in Turkey, I would say that there can definately be multiple Master Assassin's per branch.. .-. ..- -.. .. - --- 08:45, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Desmond

Since Desmond has all of Ezio's skills and abilitys should he be considered a Master Assassin? -- daleno - 00:14, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

No. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 00:35, March 31, 2011 (UTC)

Notable Master Assassins

I feel we should change the Known Master Assassins section to Notable Master Assassin's as in ACR it has been said that master Assassins will guard the Assassin dens, so... What say you? Subject 12 07:39, June 29, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe when the game's been released. --Jasca Ducato _{Council Chamber} ^{Assassination record} 13:11, June 29, 2011 (UTC)

Well, Why is Malik Al-Syaf not on the Known Master assassins. I mean he was Known as a Master Assassin. He had all of the same robes and gear as Altair did. I just was wondering, I think it is more naotable than Piri Reis, A charecter we had not even met yet. He was a main charecter in Assassin's Creed so I think he deserves a slot under the list.CrazyTemplar 01:11, October 29, 2011 (UTC)CrazyTemplar

Any quote about master assassin's ?

We should add a quote right ? I can't seem to find one.
