Hello fellow ACII fans! We are just a a weak away from Brotherhood and
that's why I wanted to write an achievment guide for this, in my opinion,
awesome game!
I have played and enjoyed this game ever since the release point. That's about
a year by now. It's still an awesome game and I think everybody who haven't
played it should give it a chance.
So now, I want to write something for it. A simple achievment guide which will
cover all of the obtainable achievments in Assassins Creed 2. I will cover
in-depth strategys for obtaining the achievments as well as information about
them. Note that this is not a walkthrough so don't use this guide if you need
help beating the storyline of this game. There are plenty of good walkthroughs
here on gamefaqs.
Now, on to the guide!

Myth Maker

Description: Find the 8 statuettes in Monteriggioni.
Amount of Gamer-score: 5G
Strategy: For the following achievment, I will make a list and try to explain
as good as I can where all the statuettes are located.
1) Kinda easy to find. Go to the stairs at the front of Villa Auditore. Make
a left and you will see the statue stuck to a wall in a building at the far
left.
2) Venus can be found pretty close to Mars. Head to the south-west corner of
the villa's ground and look out past the barrier to see this statue stuck on
a wall. (thanks to KyanVice (at) gmail (dot) com for correcting me :)
3) This statue is also very easy to retrieve. Go up the stairs at the front
of the villa but this time, make a right. This statue is in an alcove by
the big house.
4) This one is also easy to find. You have to go to the center of the town
where all the shops are. Easy directions:
Stand by the gunsmith and face the villa.
Go towards the stairs
Turn right here and then go down.
Look to the left here and you might see a garden with a tree and a bench in
front of it. The statue is behind the tree and is easily visible.
5) This statue is located over the circular window at the top of the curch.
Simply climb up to the top of the church so you grab the window. From here,
jump and grab the statue.
6) Located on a rooftop near the entrance to Monteriggioni. At the house
in front of the doctor's office. Climb up onto the roof to find this statue
stuck to the wall on the back of the building.
7) This statue is located north-west of the town's entrance. She is stuck to
the wall over an arch behind the doctor's office. Simply go all the way
around and pick her up.
8) This is located as long to the west as possible while you enter the town.
Go to the building to the left near the one you found statue 7. This one is
stuck to the wall next to a window on a rooftop.
Once you have found all these 8 statuettes, you will receive 8000 florines
as well as unlock this achievment.
-------------
Vitruvian Man
-------------
Description: Unlock all 20 pieces of Subject 16's video.
Amount of Gamer-score: 20G
Strategy: Find all the glyphs and complete the puzzle for each of them. I
won't give you strategys for each but here are some links:
Locations: http://www.msxbox-world.com/features/Assassins-Creed-II/index.php
Solutions: http://mycheats.1up.com/view/section/3170852/27934/assassin_s_creed
_2/xbox_360
--------------
Street Cleaner
--------------
Description: Hide 5 dead bodies in a Bale of Hay.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: This achievment can be gotten easily by just killing random
civillians. Find a bale of hay somewhere on the streets. They are located
almost everywhere on the streets. Go to one and stay there. Once a person
goes here, knock him/her out. Pick up the body by standing by him/her and
press 'B'. This will make Ezio pick up the knocked out victim. Go to the
bail of hay and press 'B' once again. Ezio will put the dead/knocked out body
in the bail of hay. Repeat this 5 times with 5 different bodies to get the
achievment.
-----------
Fly Swatter
-----------
Description: Kick a guard while using the Flying Machine.
Amount of Gamer-score: 5G
Strategy: Please note before trying to get this achievment, this one is
missable. It can only be gotten while playing the mission where you have to
use the flying machine to get into the palace. While flying, press the left
button to lock onto targets (like you usually do). Now it's that simple so you
just need to fly onto the guard and Ezio will kick him automatically. If you
miss on this achievment, simply reload your save.
--------------
Messer Sandman
--------------
Description: Stun 4 guards at once by throwing sand in their face.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: First of all, go to the combat training in Monteriggioni. Choose
'special moves' and then 'unarmed combat'. This will teach you how to throw
sand at your enemies. It's a great way to stun them. To throw sand, simply
press and hold 'X' while being unarmed. This will make Ezio pick up some sand.
Release the button to make him throw the sand at guards.
Well, enough info about that we will go on with the achievment. To get this
achievment, you must be chased by at least 4 guards. Find some guards on the
streets and hit one of them. It will probably make them chase you. Run away
from them. Face them while charging up a 'throw sand attack' Release the
button when all of them are in front of you. You will hopefully get the
achievment.
To make this a little easier, you need smoke bombs. These can be purchased at
blacksmiths. As before, try to get wanted by hurting some guards. Now when all
of them are in a group near you, throw a smoke bomb at them. The guards will
be stunned for a while, giving you the chance to stun them even more by
throwing sand in their face.
------
Doctor
------
Description: Perform an air assassination on a poisoned NPC.
Amount of Gamer-score: 20G
Strategy: You receive the poison knives after completing the mission "A Blade
With Bite". Try to find some guards walking around on the streets. Once you
find some, equip your poision blade. Walk up to one of them and attack him.
Sooner or later, the poisoned guard will start to act a little crazy. Jump
up onto a building and assassinate him from here before he dies from the
poison. This is just like a normal air assassination except it's on a poisoned
guard. So this is an easy 20G.
---------
No-hitter
---------
Description: Kill 10 enemies while remaining in conflict without being hit.
Amount of Gamer-score: 20G
Strategy: This achievment can be hard to get if you are a newbie as playing
Assassins Creed 2 or Assassins Creed at all. That's why I am here. I will list
some different tactics which I have found out work very well.
1) Probably the easiest way is to go to 'San Marco' district in Venice. There
are a lot of guards here. What you will need:
Hidden Blade
Another weapons
3x Smoke Bombs
Find a troop of guards and attract them. Do whatever it takes to make 10
guards follow you. The fun will start now. Begin with throwing a Smoke bomb
into the crowd of enemies. Assassinate as many as possible with your Hidden
Blade while they are stunned. Be sure to run away so no one hits you. Prepare
another smoke bomb and throw it in their faces when they are nearby. Kill as
many as possible while they are stunned. If you don't have the achievment yet,
thrown another smoke bomb and kill more guards. You might have the achievment
by now but if not, use a sword or any other weapon to take out some more
guard. Go for counters since it's a one hit kill.
2) This can be gotten anywhere at any time. I got it during the mission where
you have to defend the hurt guy (don't remember his name... dooh...) in
Florence. What you will need:
A weapon
A bit more of skill than in strategy one
The skill of countering attacks
As said, make ten guards chase you. Now be ready to counter any incoming
attacks from any of the guards. If you fail to counter, Ezio will still block
the incoming attack so don't be afraid of that. This will take some time
because the guards with the helmets take at least two counters before they can
be killed. Repeat this with at least ten guards without being hit for this
achievment to unlock.
------------
Kleptomaniac
------------
Description: Pickpocket 1000 florins.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: This achievment requires you to pickpocket 1000 florins. It will
most likely unlock over time. Go around on the streets with the 'A' button
being held in to steal from everyone you bump into. To make this achievment a
lot easier, go to a herold and pay him 500 florins, after that pickpocket him.
You should repeat this 2 times for the achievment to unlock.
----------------
Lightning Strike
----------------
Description: Sprint for 100 meters.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: Probably the easiest achievment in the game. With all the running
you do, it's almost impossible to not get this one. Simply hold 'RT' + 'A' to
sprint. Do this for 100 meters to unlock the achievment.
-------
Sweeper
-------
Description: Sweep 5 guards at once by using a long weapon.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: To learn how to sweap, you will first have to train in long weapons
technique. You find the trainer in front of the villa in Monteriggioni. Go to
him and choose 'Long Weapons', this will cost you 10000 florins so be sure to
save some cash before going to him. Once there, you'll learn how to sweep.
Sweeping is a useful technique while surrounded by guards. Equip a spear and
hold the 'X' button to prepare to sweep. Release 'X' to unleash the sweap
attack.
Like you did when you got "Messer Sandman", try to find some guards on the
streets, make them attack you by doing something illegal like hitting them or
steal from them. Once they are after you, Go to a location away from them.
Do NOT run. Ezio will drop the spear if he runs. Simply charge up a sweep
attack and release while at least 5 guards are nearby.

-----------------
Assassan For Hire
-----------------
Description: Complete your first assassination mission for Lorenzo II
Magnifico.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: At the beginning of DNA Sequence 5, assassin missions will be
available, these missions are available in all areas of the game and are
marked as crosshairs on the radar. Find a marker on the map and get there. Go
and take the bird in the cage to start the mission, if accepted. These
missions are never too hard to be completed without a walkthrough. Some of the
missions require you to use eagle vision to find enemies nearby while some
requires you to assassinate targets whitout being seen. Whatever you get,
simply complete the mission to unlock this achievment.
---------
Macho Man
---------
Description: Defend a woman's honor.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: This achievment requires you to complete a beat up mission. Beat up
missions are indicated on the radar as a fist icon. There should be one nere
Ezio's fathers house. Simply go to the location and talk to the woman. This
will start the mission. The cheating husband will be indicated on the radar.
Go and find him then give him what he deserves to unlock this achievment.
----------
Steal Home
----------
Description: Win a race againts thieves.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: Races look like checkered patterns on your minimap. Go find a race
and talk to the thief there. He will ask you to beat his time. The time limit
is mostly very easy to beat and the course isn't too hard either. The next
checkpoint is located on the radar and will guide you through the race 'til
the finish line. Once you have won the race, this achievment will unlock.
----------------
Show Your Colors
----------------
Description: Wear the Auditore Cape in each city.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: You must find all the 100 feathers and put them in the chest in
Maria's room to unlock the Auditore Cape. Once unlocked, go to the costume
selection screen in the main menu and select the Auditore Cape, press 'X' to
equip it. Now, you have to visit each city at least once while wearing the
Auditore Cape for this achievment to unlock.
---------
Handy Man
---------
Description: Upgrade a building in the Stronghold.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: You will be able to start renovate Monteriggioni in the beginning of
DNA sequence 4. To do this, you have to go to Claudia's room and talk to the
architect. Upgrading a building may cost you some money but it's worth it, I
promise. Choose any building which you would like to upgrade and press 'A' to
do so. Upgrading the bank is a good choice since it will increase your total
completion more than renovating another building. If you are low on cash, you
can renovate the tailor which will only cost you 1000 florins. The achievment
will unlock once the first building is upgraded.
---------------
I Like the View
---------------
Description: Synchronize 10 View Points.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: Viewpoints are marked as eagles on your map. They are high buildings
in the world, usually towers. Find a building which is marked with an eagle
and climb it all the way up, you might find a wooden beam somewhere up here.
Walk onto it and Ezio will automatically crouch. Press 'Y' to synchronize the
view point. This will unlock some areas of the map. Do so with 10 different
view points (there are 66 in total) to unlock the achievment.
---------
High Dive
---------
Description: Perform a Leap of Faith from the Top of Florence's
Giotto's Campanile
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: This building you need to climb up is located right next to the
big church in the center of Florence. During the mission when you have to beat
up your sister's cheating boyfriend, he and the girl will stand right next to
the building. Climb it all up to the top (it's a loooooong way) find the beam
at the top and synchronize the view point. Jump down into the bail of hay
below to get this achievment.
-------
Mailman
-------
Description: Intercept a Borgia courier.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: In most cities, you will sometimes see some freerunners trying to
run away from you. These are the Boriga Couriers. They are not located on the
map but can easily be noticed due to the red cape they always wear. You will
have to tackle or kill him to get this achievment. I recommend to tackle them.
It makes you famous to kill them.
------------------
Tip of the Iceberg
------------------
Description: Use your eagle vision to scan a glyph in the environment.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: This achievment only requires you to scan a glyph, not beat the
puzzle it contains so this is very easy to get. Go to Monteriggioni and face
the front of the villa. You will see a strange white glowing text on the top
left of the entrance to the villa. Climb up the building and hold 'Y' to enter
eagle vision. While in eagle vision, simply look at the glyph to scan it.
Once done, the achievment will unlock.
---------------------
A Piece of the Puzzle
---------------------
Description: Unlock a piece of subject 16's video.
Amount of Gamer-score: 10G
Strategy: Unlock one piece of Subject 16's video. Pieces may be unlocked after

In Memory of Petruccio

Description: Collect all the feathers.
Amount of Gamer-score: This is the only achievment in the game which I had
trouble with, to be honest I needed a walkthrough for the last ten feathers.
There are 100 feathers in total and you will have to find all of them and put
them in the chest in Maria's room to get the achievment.
After you have collected an amount of feathers, you will be rewarded with
different awards:
• 50 Feathers: Condottiere Warhammer (I don't remember it's name, lol)
• 100 Feathers: Auditore Cape
Here is a guide for getting all the feathers (what could you do if I wasn't
here :P)
