You should say altaïr AND ezio, ezio is he's follower, he was the master assassin, the only missing thing is he was not an assassin before owning his father's robes.

[@SPCTR0]

For me, the AC lore says it all. Altair was known for his wisdom for studying the apple for most of his later years while Ezio was known for his skills and talent as he was the greatest mentor the brotherhood had. This is also proven by the line "Desmond, armed with the wisdom of Altair and the skills of Ezio." Ezio was the most skilled assassin.

Why is Altair never placed at No 1? HE IS THE ASSASSIN everyone that started early played with. He introduced the series and is the best even in Ezio’s lifetime. Started as an assassin and lived as an assassin. Ezio gets more sequels but that is the only advantage he has. Ezio is my personal favourite but if we’re talking about the best assassin, it’s Altair without a doubt.

[@va8013]

Nope

[@jessecross9852]

Usman I agree with you.

[@carlospineda9497]

Yeah but the top 10 is based on Who were good at their job, considering altair failed mayorly at his first target and therefore looses his ranks and has to begin a New with a hitlist prooves he had much to learn yet, while ezio begins Being An assasins taking a templar headmaster.... So When you compare altair Who was ahead in his ranks fails st killing A templair soldier vz ezio Who begins Being an assasins and kills a templar headmaster, ezio wins

[@FlareTheFolf]

Usman, I think it's more of that Altair get caught more than Ezio, Ezio at most messed up in the Vatican City and maybe Venice, he most of the time assassinated his targets in stealth and you see this in AC2, considering that most Templars don't even know who the assassin was, only Rodrigo Borgia, even in Venice when he shot the Doge on his boat in front of everyone, no one knew who did it cause he wear a mask during it, meanwhile when Altair killed someone, there's a chase scene and the whole city is on lockdown and bells are ringing to find you, he even have to hide in the Assassin's Bureau until the heat dies down

[@ushasamc]

@@FlareTheFolf It was a game mechanic, to increase the difficulty of the game as you progress further in the story. I think he deserves praise for being able to carry out any assassination despite the fact that everyone knows who he is, unlike Ezio who was particularly unknown. Their mission difficulties are already different but that standard. I love Ezio too. Brotherhood is my favourite in the series.

[@AndorRadnai]

I have to say that Arno is definitely underrated. He was canonically a stealthier and thus deadlier Assassin than anyone before him. When combined with the setting, and favouring a stealthy approach, you can really see (and play) that in-game.

[@mistah3687]

Connor was capable of taking on an entire army practically singlehandedly, Ezio rebuilt the brotherhood and was the biggest driving force behind the dismantling of the Borgias, and Altair reformed the Assassins into something better than what they were just after he took down his mentor while he held a freaking Piece of Eden (The Frye twins did take on someone holding a Piece of Eden as well, but they weren't fucking Al Mualim)

[@MrSlima20]

Altair is 100% the best assassin. He doesn't even have a health but rather a synchronization bar which indicates that he basically never took damage. He was also the only one we know of that was raised from really young to be an assassin. He's been an assassin his whole life and he was damn good at it. Whilst Ezio was really great, even Ezio acknowledges that Altair was one of the best.

[@sthepcorms6747]

That's not cannon, that's a broken theory created by fans, that's not the reason he has a synchronization bar, the reason is just esthetic, it's the first game, the devs wasn't sure how to make the esthetics of the game, it could be ANYONE as the protagonist of AC 1, they still would have the same bar.

[@sizeable-cult3169]

For me, it's Altaïr 1rst, Ezio 2nd. By the way, a codex page in Ac 2 reveals it was the way of the 3rd crusade Brotherhood to assassinate targets with spectacle.

[@z0ck3y23]

@@sthepcorms6747 then explain why the synchronization bar even dropped when you hit innocents if it was a regular health bar? It cant be Altair who got damaged when hitting innocents, right? And your arguement about "it could be ANYONE" is just silly... The synchronization bar is supposed to show how well Desmond is synched with Altair, if it dropped, that means Desmond did sth that Altair didnt back then, and if it drops because you took a hit against an enemy, that means Altair never got hit by him. I know its just a video game and that it still is supposed to be a health bar in the end, the synch bar is just an excuse for it, i know what you mean and understand it, but we are talking about the lore here, and the lore with the animus in AC1 only makes sense if we think about Altair not even getting hit once outside the cutscenes. Ezio is still the goat assassin for me tho. Altair not getting hit once is good for him, doesnt benefit the brotherhood tho. Ezio made the brotherhood way bigger than it ever was with Altair, doesnt matter if he did that whilst learning from him

[@SamLewis18]

@@sthepcorms6747it is canon because it’s stated that Altaïr was never hit, go do your research. And the sync bar literally means the memory depleting.

[@S.T-Money]

@@alexbastos6960 Origins is my favorite, too. With the AC games coming to PlayStation Plus, I’ve just started Unity. Maybe like 4 hours in and the parkour is amazing. I’ve played everyone except Unity and Rogue. I’ve been on an AC binge this year. Played Syndicate, Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla, and Black Flag. By the end of the year, I’m going to run through all of the main titles in the series again.

[@TheLoneStarRdnk]

Technically there is no right or wrong way to wield the hidden blade. Darius, the first proto-assassin the brotherhood looked up to, had it on the outside of his wrist. It’s just in Origins Bayek didn’t understand this and neither did Aya. And Bayek should definitely be higher on this list because throughout the game his heart changes and he realizes that there’s much more than just avenging his son. Plus he’s a great public help just like Evie. He was always helping citizens be it carry something for them or saving their family from bandits

[@iam2lethal586]

Also in the hidden ones dlc he’s really the one who is setting the first rules for the brotherhood

[@MohnJarstonWasThere1907]

Bayek needs way more credit than he is given. Bayek is my 3rd favorite in the series just behind ezio and Edward. (And depending on what time you ask me I might say Connor is 3rd). ALSO YES! Eivor wore it perfectly fine. It doesn’t affect gameplay or really animations that much. And Eivor is better at social stealth than Altaïr, Bayek, and Kassandra/Alexios. So Bayek and Eivor are super unappreciated

[@TheLoneStarRdnk]

Hell no I disagree. He hasn't taken out any assassins on the level of these guys. Adewale was old as hell. He doesn't count. Also iirc, Haytham defeated him. Not Shay.

Now the others he could probably take. ​@@thedevilisaloser666

[@thedevilisaloser666]

@@rafayg7376 I agree that Shay would struggle a lot with Ezio and Altair ; but I think there's a genuinely good case he can take on Connor and Edward. Both got into the order fairly late whereas he grew up with it. Connor was trained in the exact ways that Shay was, and we know that Shay knows that. He would be able to predict Connor and work around the strength difference. Edward is a lot closer, the dude is jacked, has a lot of weapons, and knows what he is doing. That said, again, I think Shay just had a bit more technical skill. Edward's big advantage is pure firepower over Shay, but Shay is a more skilled mid and long ranged fighter- if he can keep distance he would probably take it. After all, a stronger shot isn't as deadly as a well placed one. I also am willing to bet that Shay is stronger than Edward, or at least more durable.

I loved Syndicate, it was probably my favorite AC game so far. The gamepay was really fun. I didn't like to be forced to play asJacob or Evie though, I'd like the choice to choose which one I'd rather play as. Evie was definitely my favorite choice, Jacob was fun but not serious about his profession. I also liked that you could play as Jack the Ripper in the dlc. That was pretty cool. I really liked all the options to upgrade your gang members & clothing colors. I also liked Black Flag even though it was super easy & quick to beat. It was pretty fun. AC 3 was good too, not the best, but I liked the story, I really liked climbing the trees. I miss that in the newer AC games, it was cool to sneak into buildings through various trees rather than on foot through bushes & grass. That's another reason why I liked Syndicate, you mainly jumped on rooftops or ran through buildings, it kept the game interesting! I think that is what is lacking in AC Valhalla, AC Origins, & AC Odyssey, it's all just climbing walls & sneaking through bushes & tall grass. It's not as fun as running through someone's house, jumping from rooftop to rooftop, using a grappling hook (rope dart) to shoot yourself up a building, or climbing through multiple trees. I'm currently playing AC Odyssey, because I never got around to playing it. I was playing AC Origins, but Odyssey came out so fast, then another huge game came out that my friends wanted me to play, so I put them both on hold till now. I have to say, Odyssey looks beautiful on PS5!!! I like looking at other people's pics on Odyssey, cool feature.

[@bgoutdoors802]

Actually the hidden blade was meant to be worn on the outside of the arm instead of the inside but was then used on the inside for better concealment and the ring finger had to be removed until it was modified so the ring finger didn’t have to be removed. Then was intended to be used inside the forearm. So technically Valhalla got it right and was the correct position for the time period

[@WayneTheAsianGuy]

how does that work

[@thehiddenone69]

One very important thing for me regarding ezio is that he is the only one who actually understands and explains the creed and its meaning...even altair didnt fully understand it

[@artusanctus997]

Wrong. Every Assassin understands it differently showcasing that the Creed is flexible. Arno thought the Creed was a warning meant to guard against dangerous ambitions. Ezio thought it meant the command to be wise.

[@lordtouchme77]

Every assassin protagonist understand the meaning but they come into a different conclusion like for example: For ezio, he think that we are basically an architect of our own action and that we should take responsibillity whether we get a happy/tragic ending For altair, the creed is more like fighting for your own honor and finding the truth For edward, the creed is the beggining of wisdom that can lead him to become a better man than he was before For arno, like the other guy said the creed was a warning to anyone And for connor, the creed is basically a compromised that no matter how many times assassin may fall and seems lost.... they would never stop until they stop the templar in every era.

[@Pakilla64]

Altair is no. 1 because: 1. He was based on the real Assassins of the Crusades. His method of operation was historically accurate, as he stays invisible EXCEPT when it's time to strike. The fact that he can ghost while the whole city is behind him should be alone to earn top rank. 2. He never got hurt outside of cutscenes. No one could touch him. Even when they did, it was someone else's fault. 3. The man lived 92 years when the average man got cut down in his 30s. He's a survivor. 4. He invented every tool and technique that Ezio would later learn.

Ezio overcame way tougher odds than Altair did when it came to assassinating targets in difficult locations. Most of Altair's targets and operations were pretty simple, while Ezio had to perform dozens of unique plans and strategies to get his jobs done. Say what you want about the synchronization bar or birthright, but Ezio's accomplishments as an assassin easily outmatch Altair's.

[@slumpywumpy4166]

I’m at the start and I’m without a doubt assuming Ezio and Altair are 1 and 2, nonrespectively. Edward could be around 3 due to how Black Flag ended and how skilled a captain he was too, which did aid his Assassin skills as a whole. Hopefully I’m right Edit: I am immediately fuming at Edward’s placement, only 10 because he wasnt an Assassin for a decent chunk of the game? There are 30 Assassin contracts to complete, he is akin with the use of Hidden Blades from the start, he hunted and killed several templars, a lot of which aided by the Jackdaw. Pure horseshite so far Edit 2: Bayek was the literal FIRST Assassin? And yes he didn’t necessarily NEED stealth but bloody none of them do. Saying it’s because Origins had a new combat system is stupid because it had a revamped stealth system as well. Wrong on many accounts so far.

Origins is one of my favourite AC games, mainly because of that story and that Egyptian setting and definitely how much bloodthirsty Bayek was portrayed as.

I got the director's cut on Steam, but the story isn't all that different and mods seem to be lacking. Setting up the controller was a pain too. If there aren't much in the way of mods, consoles are probably the way to go here lol 😝 Shay was an Assassin in the first few sequences, but your jest putting him above Ezio had me worried.

Kassandra should be #1… she’s basically a god, plus she’s lived for thousands of years. If anyone of those Assassins dueled her they would lose just because of her experience

[@kingofthering3343]

Kassandra isn't a god, and she's not one of the Assassin's either - she and Alexios are descendants of the Isu, which is why the have the ability to perform feats such as the leap of faith and wield the Spear of Leonidas (Piece of Eden), so they are stronger than the average human. However, the likes of Altair, Ezio, Connor, Edward, Haytham and Desmond are all also descendants of the Isu, which is why they have the same abilities (leap of faith, Eagle Vision etc.) and are able to wield the Pieces of Eden (hence why Ezio could wield the combined power of the apple and the staff when Rodrigo Borgia could not). Even Eivor fought Kassandra practically to a stalemate, and Eivor is nowhere near the level of Altair or Ezio. As far as skill goes, Altair is definitely the #1. He was literally born into the Brotherhood and reached the rank of Master Assassin his 20s, something which no other Assassin achieved. He fought solo against literal armies of Templar Knights, the most deadly opponents in the entire franchise, and none of them ever managed to land a single hit on him. He was also able able to wield the Apple of Eden with ease, and was still active as an Assassin, even in his 90s. There is a reason why all the Assassin's who came after him consider him to the pinnacle of the Brotherhood.

Perhaps but Ezio is the best balanced one. He had conceptually employed all possible methods of subterfuge, infiltration, evasion and assassination in the game, ranging from surveillance, poison, to crude form of long distance assassination, etc all the while trying to rebuild an actual brotherhood that paved the way for those that came next.. Weapons expertise is not to be underestimated, I loved how he combines the hidden blade and his hook blade skills in AC revelations and his Gun and Sword executions mash is pretty satisfying to pull off.

I don’t really accept the criticism that “no hidden blade = not an AC game” for Odyssey. It just seems like a needless, irrelevant nitpick to me. It doesn’t matter. It takes place in the AC universe, it has the same characters and the same mythology and everything, therefore it’s an AC game. Period. “You can’t really assassinate anyone except lower level enemies” did this guy even play Odyssey? Invest in the stealth tree, use weapons that increase assassin damage and you can clear out whole bases without breaking a sweat. This dude’s got no clue.

in AC Unity Bellec suggests Arno assassinate a target like Altair the old fashioned way because more than being invisible appearing out of nowhere killing the target and disappearing was the classical way of the brotherhood, being known and still remain invisible, appearing and disappearing it was a display of power, skill and reach with a loud and clear message: nobody is unreachable, being seen was intentional mainly because the brotherhood was always in a never ending war with the Templars. in my opinion Ezio was Altair's equal because of two reasons: mobility and swimming (I know, I know, these are not that important but these aside I say Ezio was second to Altair but not by much)

With the right build you can one shot most if not all cultists with a single arrow to the head. with the right build, you can kill EVERY boss with a single over power attack.
