Connection bonus:
----------------- 
Link to Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines on PSP to transfer gold coins and 
defeated
Boss' weapons in Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines to Assassin's Creed 2.


Auditore Cape:
--------------- 
Collect 100 feathers in the box in your villa, then talk to your mother to 
get
the Auditore Cape.


Condottiero War Hammer:
----------------------- 
Collect 50 feathers in the box in your villa to unlock the Condottiero War
Hammer for purchase for 30,600 florins at the blacksmith's shop at Villa
Monteriggioni.


Extra abilities:
---------------- 
Successfully complete the indicated task to unlock the corresponding 
ability:
  Climb Leap: Successfully complete Rosa's "Monkey See, Monkey Do" mission 
in
  Sequence 7. This ability allows you to make longer jumps while climbing 
and
  get hand holds that would normally be out of reach.
  Disarm: Successfully complete Mario's "Evasive Maneuvers" mission in 
Sequence
  5. This ability allows you to counter incoming attacks from weapons that 
are
  normally too heavy to counter, such as axes.


Finding feathers:
----------------- 
Feathers are placed along the main quest areas of the game. This is unlike 
the
flags in the original Assassin's Creed, which appeared seemingly at random
throughout the world. Finding hidden feathers is best done by running across
rooftops, since naturally that is where birds spend the most time losing 
them.
Walk around the rooftops with Eagle Vision turned on to see feathers in a 
white
glitch type of graphic.


Easy medicines and throwing knives:
----------------------------------- 
Loot bodies or pick-pocket people to get free medicines and throwing knives.

Assassin's Creed 2

Giant squid:
------------ 
In the assassin's tomb in Santa Maria Delle Visitazione, before the room 
where
you get one of the seals required for the Armour of Altair, is a large room
filled with water. This room has an obstacle course. Activate the lever 
before
going through the course, then stand on the edge of the floor, and look at 
the
water. Remain idle until a large shape swims across the water. Use the lever
again after the timer resets, and stand at same location. After awhile, a 
giant
tentacle will shoot out of the water that Ezio dodges at the last second.


Easy kills:
----------- 
Once you unlock the smoke bomb, you can use it to kill guards quicker and
easier. Equip the smoke bomb, then throw it. While the soldiers are 
coughing,
use your hidden blade to quickly and easily kill them.


Defeating harder enemies:
------------------------- 
Note: This can only be done after learning the Disarm move. Sometimes you 
will
run into the big "Golden Knights" or the men who fight better than normal
soldiers and usually have unique weapons such as lances or big axes. They 
can
also deflect attacks and counter more often. To defeat them more easily, 
disarm
yourself by pressing Down to put your weapon away. When they attack, press
Square to counter and disarm them. This usually works in one attempt. Then,
quickly press Square again to kill the unarmed man. 


Making Money:
-------------
Submitted by: Death's_Angel

When you get to the villa and are able to give the town upgrades, then you should put 
any spare money into these upgrades, leaving some for repairs, buying weapons and armor 
e.t.c. Leave your money chest to aquire more gold, and go do something else e.g. main 
quest, assassination contract whatever, whatever and every 20 minutes your gold should 
go up, at which point you are able to go back to the villa and get it. Just don't forget 
to pick it up after the fourth time to go up or else it'll be lost forever. 


Regain energy without using medicine:

If you find yourself low on health while not on a mission, save money and medicine by 
finding a Memory Start or an Assassination Contract pigeon coop and accepting the mission. 
You'll notice your health meter will refillwhen the mission begins. Then just press Start, 
abort the memory and you'll keep your health.
