• Memory 2: Kill only the Borgia Captain.
• Memory 3: Do not Swim.
• Memory 4: No conditions.

This lair can be found in the Antico District at the Piramide Cestia. The trophy will pop upon exiting the lair after collecting the Scroll of Romulus. This lair is a maze that winds its way through the Catacombs which many find difficult to navigate but if at any point you come to a fork in your path, scan the walls with Eagle Vision and an arrow will appear pointing in the direction of the exit.

See the "Amen" trophy description for more information.

Story related cannot be missed. This trophy will pop during Sequence 2 upon exiting the first Lair of Romulus.

This lair can be found in the Antico District at the Colosseum. The trophy will pop upon exiting the lair after collecting the Scroll of Romulus. This lair is relatively easy but requires you to complete a chase at the end, just avoid all of the black gates that drop as your target passes through them.

See the "Amen" trophy description for more information.

This lair can be found in the Campagna District at the Cloaca Maxima. The trophy will pop upon exiting the lair after collecting the Scroll of Romulus. This lair requires some combat, as you chase your target through the sewer Followers of Romulus will jump out from the walls but you can shove them out of the way using and and continue the chase.

See the "Amen" trophy description for more information.

This lair can be found in the Antico District at the Palazzo Laterano. The trophy will pop upon exiting the lair after collecting the Scroll of Romulus. This is a very simple lair and requires nothing but free running. You do have to shoot several tethered weights but you do not have to worry if you run out of ammo, as there is a table to the right of the golden gates where you can collect more bullets and crossbow bolts.

See the "Amen" trophy description for more information.

This lair can be found in the Vaticano District at the Basillica di San Pietro. The trophy will pop upon exiting the lair after collecting the Scroll of Romulus. This lair requires a little of everything. First of all you must blend into a crowd, when the groups stop you can swap groups and it will not attract any attention from the nearby guards. You will have to keep up with your target more so than in other lairs as there are several spots where you can easily lose him but it shouldn't prove too difficult as the path is clear.

The Lairs of Romulus become available after completing Sequence 2 and are indicated on the map by a wolf icon.

There are also 3 Borgia flags within each lair which you will have to collect you can see the "Capture the Flag" trophy description for more information. All lairs can be replayed after they have been completed by pressing and then going into the DNA menu.

This trophy will pop during Sequence 5 after you destroy the Machine Gun which is the first of Leonardo Da Vinci's machines.

During the game you'll meet with Leonardo Da Vinci, he informs you of several of his war machines that are being used by the Borgias and therefore require destruction.

All of the Leonardo's missions are marked with an "L" on the map.

For this trophy you must first kill the Templar Overseer in Rome then after you leave Rome you must talk with and then follow Eduardo to the dry dock. After some combat you must flood the dock and steal the machine, finally you must destroy all of the Borgia ships. To destroy a ship you must destroy all of it's sails. There are in 3 sails per ship and 4 ships in total.

The trophy will pop once you've completed the mission.

For this trophy you must use a glider similar to the one in Assassin's Creed 2 but this one is equipped with incendiary bombs.

First of all you must kill the Templar Overseer in Rome then when you've left Rome, you must follow an architect to a "secluded area" and squeeze him for information in other words beat him up using your fists. You will then have to reach the bomber using a combination of stealth and combat. When you've reached the bomber you will have to destroy 4 workshops (which take two shots each to destroy), 2 carriages and one horseman.

Remember that this is a glider and has no propulsion so to gain height after a swooping attack, you must shoot the floor to start a fire. Once the fire is lit pull back on the left analogue stick as you are over it and you'll ascend into the air.

The trophy will pop once you've completed the mission.

Again you will have to kill the Templar Overseer and leave Rome. You will again have to beat up an architect using your fists, you must then free two mercenaries and protect them during a combat sequence, follow them through some tunnels and then command the tank.

There are explosives located next to the majority of the stationary targets so it's a good idea to aim for them. You will have to fight other tanks but the trick is to circle them and keep moving this prevents them from scoring a hit and keeps you intact.

The trophy will pop once you've completed the mission.

In order to renovate a building you must first unlock it by destroying the Borgia Tower that's overlooking that area. The Antico District is the southern most district on the map.

You can renovate any building by either walking up to it (or the architect) and pressing . Buildings you can renovate range from shops, tunnels, empty faction buildings and even landmarks. Each will cost a certain amount of Florins to renovate but will increase your income.

There are 12 Borgia Towers in total located throughout Rome. You must however complete up to Sequence 6 to unlock all of the Borgia towers.

To destroy a Borgia Tower you must first kill the Borgia Captain whilst avoiding the guards, if you are detected then he will run and not return until the next shift starts so you have to use stealth and your assassins. When the Captain is dead you must climb the tower and ignite it by pressing this automatically syncs the viewpoint and updates your map.

Destroying the Boriga towers will allow you to renovate buildings in that area and recruit more assassin's. Once a tower has been destroyed it will become an Assassin's Tower.

There are 4 guilds; Assassins, Thieves, Courtesans and Mercenaries. Each have their own factions and each have their own challenges, you must complete 10 of these to unlock the trophy. They vary in difficulty but won't cause too much trouble.

There are 10 glyphs located on landmarks throughout Rome, these must be scanned in Eagle Vision and then climbed into. Once in, there are several puzzles to solve within each glyph.

The puzzles are not fixed to a landmark so you can complete the landmarks in any order, the order of the puzzles will stay the same. The videos below by PowerPyx show each of the locations and the puzzles:

This isn't too hard to achieve. You must earn 3 gold medals in any training program within the Animus, there are 4 different types of training you can do Free Run, Stealth Assassination, Locate and Combat. The easiest are the Free Run challenges.

Press and select Animus Training, then select Free Run and then complete the first Free Run challenges, these are Short Courses 1, 2 and 3. Do not complete the Tutorial course as this will not count.

As you play the game you will automatically recruit 2 Assassin's to the Assassin's Guild but for the trophy you require one more. You must find and assist a citizen in trouble. You will as you run around find various people surrounded by guards to recruit them you must simply kill all of the guards and then press to speak with them.

If you leave it too long or run away they will die but there are many more located through out Rome.

Once you have recruited an Assassin you can send him on missions from pigeon coops or Assassin Towers. To send an Assassin on a mission you must first select a mission from the contracts menu, then press to assign it to an assassin. Once you have done this you must press to send him on a mission.

You will notice that there is a bar at the top when you select missions this is the percentage chance that the assassin will complete the mission. The higher the percentage the more chance of him completing the mission. Remember to keep it as close to 100% as you can because if you don't, there is a chance the assassin could fail and die. An Assassin can also die in combat helping you so you must be careful with them.

Missions only take 10 - 20 minutes so you won't spend much time waiting and this trophy should come pretty quickly, once an assassin has reached the level of Assassino you must return to the Assassin's hideout for an initiation ceremony the trophy will pop after this.

The XP for the ranks are as follows -

• Recluta: 0XP
• Servitore: 10XP
• Assistente: 30XP
• Milte: 80XP
• Discepol: 180XP
• Mercenario: 350XP
• Guerriero: 600XP
• Veterano: 1200XP

• Assassino: 3500XP

To earn this trophy you need to collect all 101 Borgia Flags in Rome. They are located throughout the 4 districts and in the Lairs of Romulus which can be replayed via the DNA section of the menu.

Once you've collected 25 flags or have completed the game, you can buy Borgia Flag maps from art merchants for each of the districts that will add the locations of the the Borgia Flags to your map.

The price of the maps are as follows:

• Centro District: 17,255 Florins
• Campagna District: 16,915 Florins
• Antico District: 17,102 Florins

The videos below by PowerPyx show the exact locations of the flags:

Centro District

Campagna District

Antico District

Vaticano Distric

Lairs of Romulus

There are 10 feathers located throughout Rome, you can by Feather maps from art merchants once you've completed the game to add the location of all of the Feathers on your map. The Feather map costs a total of 17,425 Florins.

Alternatively you can use this guide by PowerPyx.

This must be done before Sequence 8 and can be accessed after Sequence 2.

For this trophy you must leave the Animus by pressing and then selecting Leave Animus from the main menu and you will return to the cellar of the Villa Auditore in Monteriggioni.

You must then work your way out of the cellar and then outside of the villa, once outside you must climb up the side and run to the front of the villa where you will find a hole in the roof the artefact will be placed just inside.

This video explains shows it's exact location. Thanks to TehVGG.

This is an annoying trophy to obtain. You cannot simply counter kill enemies using and you must chain kills together quickly.

To do this you must highlight guards with the left analogue stick and press to kill them in one hit, this will of course leave you open to attacks so you must be quick with the counters, you can counter whilst killing an enemy so you need to be very quick. It will take sometime to get but it shouldn't prove too hard. If you get hit or are grabbed by a guard it will reset your tally to 0, so you have to be quick.

There are two places you can do it, the first is Sequence 2 - Memory 6 but I found the best place was in the Animus Virtual Training program. Select Combat and then Long Kill Streak as it will give you more time. There is a counter in the top left corner that will tell you your current streak which makes things more helpful. This video by RoosterTeeth will show you how to do it in Sequence 2.

First of all you need to find a broom. There are many people around Rome sweeping some can be found under a canopy or near to hay bales they are completely random. Once you've found a broom you must take it off a civilian, if you give them a good shove (try to avoid killing them) they will drop the broom and leave it for you to pick up.

You must then find a guard to kill and proceed to kill him as you normally would with your sword. You can still use your pistol to get the kill as you won't drop the broom. The kill will still count as a broom kill and the trophy will still pop.

Wells are located throughout Rome, they are hexagonal in shape and usually surrounded by a wooden decking. Once you find one select your money pouch from the weapon wheel by pressing and press , Ezio will then throw some money in the well.

The parachute is unlocked after all of Leonardo Da Vinci's War Machines have been destroyed, you can obtain them by visiting him. Simply go to the "L" icon on the map and interact with the bench by pressing and he will give you the parachute. If you run out you can purchase more from tailor shops located throughout Rome.

The Castel Sant'Angelo is the papal residence located in the Vaticano district and is within the restricted area. There is however a perfect spot to get this trophy in Sequence 8.

After crossing the bridge run to the big wooden doors on the right and climb the outer wall, then climb the inner wall and finally climb the inner building. Once you've reached the top you must climb the large flag pole and perch on the top, jump off the top using and and immediately press to deploy the parachute and the trophy should pop before you hit the ground.

Below is a video showing how to get the trophy during Sequence 8. Thank you to PowerPyx for the video:

The fights can be found at the Barracks in the Campagna District and can only be accessed after Sequence 3. You must first of all fight your way through the first 4 fights and defeat an increasing number of guards in a set amount of time you do not need to place any money on these fights. When it comes to the 5th fight, however, you must place a maximum bet of 500 Florins on the fight and then win it. To win I found the best strategy was to throw dust in the faces of the attackers by holding down and then releasing it then you can execute all of the attackers.

It takes a while to get the hang of but it shouldn't prove too difficult. The trophy will unlock once you've exited the fights.

This must be done before Sequence 8 and can be accessed after Sequence 2.

Whilst playing the game you will get a notification telling you that you've received an email you must leave the Animus and return to the cellar of the Villa Auditore you can do this by pressing and then selecting Leave Animus on the main menu.

Once you're out of the Animus head towards the statue of Altair where the computer is, press any button when prompted and the trophy will unlock.

This video explains shows it's exact location. Thanks to TehVGG:

Can be boosted in private matches. When you are assigned your target you must find and kill them. Locate them using the radar at the bottom when the circle becomes full and starts to glow you are close to your target you must then proceed to kill the correct character.

Can be boosted in private matches. Simply hide in a hay bale and wait for your target to approach and once they are within range, press to assassinate them.

Can be boosted in private matches. To get this trophy you must take the lead with 10 seconds or less on the timer at the end of the second round not the first. This is easily boostable with a partner in 2 person Manhunt.

Can be boosted in private matches. You must kill your assigned target and then escape your pursuer in 10 seconds or less. You will need 3 people to boost this. First of all you have to meet up in the map and alert your pursuer, kill your target with , then stun your pursuer using . This will give you an automatic escape.

Can be boosted in private matches. The key here is open conflict, this means that both you and your pursuer must be alarmed so you'll need 3 people to boost it. Once everyone is aware of each other simply kill your target and run away and hide, alternatively you can stun your pursuer with the button.

Can only be boosted in public matches. This is what you'll spend the majority of your time doing, without boosting it will take over 45 hours but when you boost it it can take as little as 5 hours.

If you decide to boost XP then you will need 6 players in total. Select Alliance and you will be split into three groups of two. Find an area to meet try to avoid crowded areas and try to avoid roof tops as stunned bodies have a tendency to fall off. Once you've met in the middle split into two groups of three one from each pair in a group then just stun. Keep stunning and repeating this method and you should rack up around 10,000 points every 8 minutes.

Can be boosted in private matches. For this trophy you will need to get 6 co-op bonuses these require you to work with the other member of your team. The co-op bonuses are as follows:

• Rescue: Stun a pursuer who is chasing your team mate.
• Multi-Kill: Your team kills two targets in a row in less than 10 seconds.
• Knockout: Your team stuns two pursuers in a row in less than 10 seconds.

If you follow these steps you shouldn't find it too difficult, when boosting it will require 4 people all labelled from A to D, Credit to jx07 for the following info:

Make a 4-player manhunt private match. Players A and B are the pursuers and players C and D are the targets.

Round 1

• After the round has started, all players meet at one point.
• Player A locks by pressing on C and player B kills C with . This should get you Co-op Kill.
• Player B walks away from player A. Player A chases player D in high profile so that an escape sequence begins. Then Player B kills D. This should get you Diversion.
• Player A kills C and player B kills D at the same time. This should get you Multi-kill.

Round 2

• After the round has started, all players meet at one point.
• Player A locks by pressing on C and player B stuns C with . This should get you Co-op Stun.
• Player B walks away from player A. Player D chases player A in high profile so that an escape
• sequence begins. Then Player B stuns D. This should get you Rescue.
• Player A stuns C and player B stuns D at the same time. This should get you Knocked out.

Can be boosted in private matches. This trophy is relatively easy to get in open play but even easier when combined with Needle in a Haystack what you are looking to do is chain together as many bonuses as you can in order to get the highest points possible for a single kill. When killing from a hay bale, however, it should give you over 750 points.

Alternatively you can use this method provided by Nozza x360a of xbox360achievements.org:

With this achievement we'll be killing two birds with one stone. You'll be getting Needle in a Haystack first and Overachiever will follow.

Just start the multiplayer Training where you have to kill the 3 enemies they give you. Right away run straight ahead towards the first enemy and watch his path, at one part he walks right by a hay bail.

Once you know which hay bail to hide in, restart and go straight there. When he passes by wait for the bar around the button icon to fill up so you get the most points. Once he's dead, Needle in a Haystack should pop and you'll also (if done right) get 750pts and Overachiever will follow. You can also get a score of around 900pts+ from this tactic!

Can be part boosted in private matches. This is one of the hardest multiplayer trophies but it can be easily accomplished with the Abstergo Employee of the Month Guide by leowtyx, follow all of the steps in there and the trophy should be yours. All of the bonuses can be achieved in private matches except the end bonuses which must be done in public matches.

Can be boosted in private matches. You will have to obtain a double and triple escape for Abstergo Employee of the Month. You will know when you have a pursuer by the red triangles above their heads, the best way to do this is in Alliance. Meet with your pursuers in the middle of the map and then run around to alert them after which you can then either stun them with , run away or get them to kill civilians.

For the three parts to this trophy you will need: some smoke bombs, a heavy weapon and you'll need to steal a spear from a guard. For each part, have the weapon equipped, then find and lock on to your target (any guard) with . Then just move a decent distance away and throw it at them with . For the spear and long weapon, you need to hold the button down then to prepare then release to throw. See the video to get a good idea of the distance etc.

This is a new game that can be found in the thieves guild. Da Vinci's apprentice is playing it when you first meet him in the first mission of the DLC. It is a luck based game where you roll dice and bet on the outcome. When playing after the main game you should have loads of money anyway so just bet the maximum of 7500 and you should get the trophy after 2 wins. If you bet again mid-turn, put the bet up to a total of 10,000. Since the winnings are usually a minimum of 2:1, you can get it after 1 victory.

All missions in the main game and in the DLC have a special requirement that show up when you are accepting it. You need to meet this in order to receive full synchronisation. For this trophy you need to have full sync all the missions, not only in the DLC but in the main game as well. So using the DNA option from the pause menu, revisit any memories that you don't have full sync in and redo them. Same with the DLC missions if you don't get them all first time through.

Here Is what's required to be at 100% for full sync:

• Memory Sequence 1-9 (The main story)
• Restored Sequence The Da Vinci Disappearance (The DLC Story)
• Secret Locations
• War Machines
• Templar Agents
• Assassination (Mercenary Guild Missions)
• Thief (Thief Guild Missions)
• Courtesan (Courtesan Guild Missions)

You'll need to get a large group of guards chasing you (at least 10, maybe more to be safe) before unleashing the arrow storm. An easy spot in the DLC missions to get this is in the first memory. Once you meet up with Da Vinci's apprentice and leave the thieves guild, you are confronted by a large group of hooded attackers. As soon as the fight starts use the arrow storm on them by holding down and you should get your trophy. See the video.

When you start up the game you should get a notification of a Restored Memory. Go to the marker to start the DLC. Just play through the memory's and enjoy it. Once you get to the end you will get your trophy. I would recommend paying attention to the full sync requirements that pop up at the start of a mission and try and fulfil them. It will save you having to go back through to get the "il Principe" trophy.

These guys are located around Rome, mostly along the river In the city. They are doing a handstand but will fall over and attack you when you get close. You need to equip your fists and beat them up. If you are quick enough, you can run up to them as they fall over and dispose of them quickly as they are getting up with one press of the button. You need to beat up all 5 for the trophy. If you accidently kill one they will re-spawn, but you will have to go away and come back later.

Below is a video and a map of their locations. Use whichever you prefer to locate them.

Map:

First, you obviously need the parachute. It's one of the items you buy from Da Vinci during the main game. Next just locate one of the groups of 4 guards that walk or stand around the city and climb to a rooftop near them. Jump off, deploy the parachute with and glide over to the guards. Press for air assassination when you get close. See the video. Remember you can buy new parachutes from a tailor if you run out.

For me it only worked when I started doing it to guards on horseback, and it took quite a few more than 5 for the trophy to unlock, so this one may be a bit glitchy. First get on your horse and then locate a guard on horseback. Ride along side him, lock on with and press button to hijack his horse from your own. You should get the trophy after you do this 5 times, but like I said, it took more than that for me. So if it doesn't unlock just keep going.

I never did 5 in a row (without dismounting at all) so that isn't a requirement for the trophy.
