I'm in Firenze on a trip right now and I went to that church and I looked for that skull in the assassin's symbol on its walls. Sadly, it wasnt there.

[@randomuserguy]

This was by far my favorite of the secret locations. The cathedral is so beautiful and and fact that you have to go all the way up makes it awesome. Also, anyone else thinks Ezio looks a little bit like the Black Knight from Fire Emblem with Altair's armor??

[@grandpillarclegius5805]

randomuserguy I can‘t believe this comment is 10 years old! Ac2 is the best!

[@autumnpixiedust00]

my stomach twisted while playing this. The height -__-" But it was fantastic

[@zwoooosh]

I have finished the tomb. I'm replaying it in DNA.

[@Omgosh98]

AC 2 had the best tombs. Especially the back round music while you were in them.

[@nedargiordano7018]

AC 2 was such a complete game, the soundtrack was fantastic

[@MrIzzyify]

Dude, Thank you so much, I would've been ripping my hair out if I hadn't seen this.

[@zwoooosh]

6, technically. The first you get during the story (sequence 4), these 5 become available after that.

[@ph33rc3donut0022]

for everyone who was wondering at 5:03 the object that you see to the left is a treasure chest with 250f in it. look left and jump down to the ledge using the poles. climb the wall and jump to the light (angle the joystick up and left or thereabouts). then jump to the box and collect. just a note i had to do this a few times and if you miss most likely you will have to reclimb the puzzle.

[@mlle7321]

Thank you so much I know I am 3 years late but your comment helped me get to the chest I spent almost 3 hours trying to get to. Thank you again 😊

[@fehr2409]

there is something on the left at 5:01.. that is the thing i am having trouble with and i've wasted the last 30 minutes of my life trying to figure it out, please help even though i know this is ancient

[@ChibiCookiexX]

omgee I'm having trouble with that too.. excepted I wasted like an hour on that...

[@fehr2409]

well if anyone gets it please do share :p Even though i've already finished the game :p

[@roxydzey]

there is treasure chest. i dont know how to get there tho lol

[@MissSladousek]

3 years later and people still cant get it lol Im here precisely because of this! You meant to jump on the light in the middle from one of the windows, but I keep missing it because Im turned around and It pretty hard to get the angle right.

[@WhAtZCrAcKiNN]

So you jump to the left you'll see the swinging pole and board as u jump lower then climb up the windows to the third row of bars on the window. Shimmy on the windows to the middle window then hold RT and aim your stick backwards toward the hanging light or chandiler then jump to the farthest right window that you couldn't shimmy to because the banner blocks you and there you go

[@LeoKRogue]

The first ever Tomb mission you do cannot be replayed, as it is a Story mission. However, for others, after you beat the first one, Pause the game, go to DNA, go to the right, beyond the "Seconday Memories" and select Secret Locations. Select the Tomb you want to replay. This also works for Assassination Contracts, and Beat Up Events, Races, so on. Hope I helped, have a nice day :)

[@cidiose]

This and the san marco big church in venice are the best secret levels. This game is pure gold

[@1nfuzion]

There is NO WAY I would have finished this on my own. Thanks for the guide.

[@Lordrandom1]

I like the theme that plays in the background here. It seems perfect for the moment. Especialy when you fall and have to start over.

[@kanona05]

To tell you the truth, this was actually a pretty fun level! If there weren't so many camera locks I would have enjoyed it more (they screwed me over so many times...) Thanks for the vid though! It saved me from jumping to my death once when I got lost!

[@Jeremyx66]

If you collect all 6 of the seals, you can use them in your Uncle's Villa to unlock Altair's armor, which is the best armor in the game (highest resistance, highest health bonus and it never needs repairing), that and the difficulty involved in retrieving it. Good thing we have Zwoooooosh's walkthroughs to help us.

[@zwoooosh]

The robes I'm wearing are Altair's armor. It's a reward for finding all 6 seals.

[@SwatKingAk]

This game is like an dream come true cant wait till i get it on christmas

[@JasontheMason5]

Christmas just passed. Did you get it?

[@iamtheflash27]

Oh My God. thank you, I have been trying to figure that out for an hour now!

[@nedargiordano7018]

The soundtrack to Doumos secret is great

[@PloK00nsClone]

yeah, this one was the easiest and also my favorite because it looked nicer than the others that iv seen so far (all except 2). Im also really impressed in how fast you did this

[@sthomas438]

Thanks a lot man. I kept on falling down and dying until the video showed me how to do it the right way! :)

[@Account951234321]

@zwoooooosh I think that he was criticizing the method of gameplay, not your walkthrough. Excellent quality by the way!

[@eltoro2808]

This is insane, I managed to get to the tomb on my second attempt (and get back down on my third). However I completed it by first scaling the circular pillar thing (which is tricky but easily doable) and when I managed to get back down from the tomb, which is the hardest part - apparently I hadn't completed the tomb because I hadn't climbed up the conventional way. RIDICULOUS

[@swe123swe]

You guys keep complaining about these tombs but I love it. Hack and slash gets old and this takes advantage of free running system nicely. Also a lot of you seem to forget or not know this was made by many of the same people that made Prince of Persia which is famous for its platforming and acrobatic puzzles.

[@ravenboy300]

bro thank you for posting this i was trying to figure it out for 2hours........

[@Boggs343]

thank you soooooo much i would of never gottin this tomb as fast as i did with out your help nice job and keep up the good work

[@ProClutch]

Crystal clear quality, fantastic walkthrough. 1000000/5

[@baitposter]

It adds to your fist's attack, and you can disarm enemies whilst using hand-to-hand.

[@toxicity959]

@crazyrc94 He's using an X360. If you look at the beginning of the video at 0:12, you can see that when he walks up tot the fountain to turn the skull, it says to press B to interact, and the B is a red button. On PC it would be an E usually, or it wouldn't be in a red button, and on PS3 it's the circle.

[@AdesteFidelis]

Hah, as a Prince of Persia, Tomb Raider and Uncharted fan, I thought these tombs were a fine "minigame", but it's funny reading comments of people who hated it. Anyway, a little bit late but happy new year everyone.

[@Yoruyo.]

I remember these videos back in the day, they were the shit!

[@mr.crackers.7759]

Well. It is GOOD (SHIT) becuase this (SHIT) is good (SHIT) so yep.

[@JasontheMason5]

Do you still remember them?

[@Yoruyo.]

@JasontheMason5 yessirrr

[@Jeremyx66]

It makes it so you never have to go to the armorer ever again. Plus, it makes your max health go up, and you take less damage to boot.

[@raptorhacker599]

cool

[@theenglishman]

The tombs are completely optional. In fact, the only required missions in the entire game outside of story missions are collecting the Codex pages, which are all infiltration missions. The whole point of AC2's design is that, if you don't want to platform, you don't have to unless you want 100% completion. Of course, I thought these tombs were the best parts of the game. Your mileage may vary.

[@cryptosporidium500]

this tomb was really fun to navigate (although admittedly i did tumble to the ground in embarrassing fashion twice before finding the sarcophagus XD)

[@zwoooosh]

You get the first of the 6 seals during the story in sequence 04, if that's what you were wondering. :)

[@SilentlyBren]

Finally! thanks! i couldn't figure out the part once you reach the round metal platforms (the first 4) lmao

[@Sebastian2008]

Saved myself another headache, thanks!

[@Obscuriii]

yes the black comes with altairs armor but you can get black from the tailor in forli its called wetlands ebony

[@breaddddd]

Find codex pages. There usually rooms in the city guarded by 4 guards. They blend in real easily though. They should be marked on your map too.

[@zwoooosh]

I have all the feathers, and none are in the tombs. I also have the official game guide, and it says its a treasure chest. Read the description, bud.. It's a seal guide, and it's all I'm advertising. I'm sorry if you expected more, but I've been pretty clear about what my guides include.

[@DPSDork]

you have to do the la volpe meeting where you learn about opening catacombs first!

[@Goldendroid]

Altairs armor is not necessary but it is the best armor and you get an achievement/trophy for every tomb you do and when you get all the tombs.

[@zwoooosh]

1. Nah, once I beat the main story I started working on everything else (still am). It's a long game. 2. If you've unlocked the district the tomb is in, you can enter it and get the seal. 3. Depend on if you like the dyes (Video of all dyes on my channel). I did, so I dyed until I got altair's armor. 4. I like Altair's armor the most. :)

[@djmichaelmoore]

Thanks so much for posting this. It helped a lot!

[@sirbletchley]

yes RT+A and then quickly press B to grab the chandelier will do it. I tried it once and I missed and then I tried it again and was able to do it. Thank you AngriestPaddy.

[@zwoooosh]

@snowshew FishChipsAndChris is right. :) After sequence 4, you'll be able to do this tomb.

[@SuperNumber19]

I got this game yesterday it's freaking stellar! I love it. I wish I had a better t.v screen though. :(

[@sportdrinkfruitpunch]

a great stuff man i just got assassins creed today thanks for the guide!!!!!

[@ma1aron]

@Efreeti What? If you go at 5:01 left instead of jumping on that wood hanging on a rope you can find secret area(treasure). There aren't any (pigeon) feathers inside this secret locations. You can always repeat this secret locations memories by selecting them from dna in the game. You can also repeat assassinations, but not missions.

[@marfg12345]

@capt5656 altair armour, you get it from collecting all the sic seals and placing them in to the monterrigionni villa

[@Koolkid736]

omg ty so much lol i was so stuck on this part but u helped a lot

[@simonjeffery13]

Thanks for this... pity I didn't watch it before spending about 3 hours trying to do it

[@zwoooosh]

The first (the real first) you get during the story. This video is the first optional tomb, which you get after the story tomb.

[@DaMan869]

Thank you so much! This helped a whole bunch.

[@Yes-qj4bi]

Thank you so much for doing this

[@thaneda]

DAMN IT I didn't notice the exit window so I safely and painfully made it back to the bottom. It took two tries to get to ground level without dying. At least I was able to get to the secret area.

[@Rasengan332]

Thanks dude, Now I have a reason to keep playing :D

[@destinyrider22]

@dadsarmyfrules but the ARMOR he is using was originally Altair's and you get it ingame for getting all 6 seals

[@zwoooosh]

Yup yup, I think so. I put more than one in the chamber at the same time.

[@CentsTwo]

the jump at 4:00 was what stalled me

[@macfool]

@Josuvvv18 Not far. As soon as Mario shows you the tomb underneath your villa, you are set. The next time yo are in Florence you have to get to a nearby view point to bring up the icon on the map.

[@SlashDance333]

Yeah! This place REALLY made me think about Prince of Persia! awesome place :)

[@AnticoFornaioPremium]

You're my hero! Tx for this and congratulations!!

[@123Mejk]

good job,you did in six minutes,i did in thirty minutes :P thanks

[@Dude902]

I remember my game glitched out only once through my whole playthrough and it was at the treasure room at the end of this tomb. Ezio got stuck climbing something.

[@africantiger14]

i finally got it. there is something in betweeen the two windows... so you need to jump from the one on the left and quickly grab on the nearby pillar.

[@Victoriadjrs]

Thank you so much for posting this. Idk if I could've done w/o your video.

[@zwoooosh]

My guides are just about the seals. And truth be told, I haven't gotten that item either. :P

[@TheWrencher]

Yeahh I finally found a way to get there and felt stupid after seeing it was just a chest lol everything else was a big help though thanks

[@AngriestPaddy]

got it myself, climb to the top of the window, don't look at the chandelier, instead press RT+A then quickly press B to grab on to it.

[@gman248]

When I played I noticed that the pigeons marked the way to continue. I dont know if its me but I really feel they are there to show you the way.

[@tompopol]

Took me about 3 times as long to get to the top, but I did figure it out myself :p

[@markn26]

This area is one of those video game moments I hope I never have to do again for the rest of my life.

[@drwnkenstein]

thanks so much for loading this. i was having some difficulties with this part of the game. not anymore :)

[@zwoooosh]

No, you need to find all 6 seals before you can unlock it and that means you have to unlock most of the districts.

[@dominik1231150]

Omg cheers m8 u helped me a lot couse i was strugling with this one

[@Jsanity117]

omg this was climbing sequence was crazy but fun

[@oblivionlova23]

Its so awesome !!! happy holidays!

[@zwoooosh]

You can replay tombs and side quests. Go to DNA > Secret Locations > Replay. :)

[@Osrie1]

@TheMadness197 It is Altair's armor (suit) for some reason it's black in this one with white details as well

[@zwoooosh]

It's Iltani. You can see a statue of her at 6:04 .

[@justtakeit11]

wow man these vids way helpful thanks

[@BlackSwordMihawk369]

It's funny that you're going through the trouble of finding the seal while wearing Altaïr's armor xD

[@zwoooosh]

Making guides for those stuck. :)

[@uzurpator87]

LOL THX MAN !!! On 5:01 i was allways jumping left :) hahah lol :)

[@zwoooosh]

The 5th tomb guide is the 6th seal. I don't count the first "tomb" because it's part of the story, and everyone gets it.

[@zwoooosh]

'cause you can replay tombs. :P It's in DNA.

[@MrPokka]

thanks for the vid really helped me out

[@JoshBaines97]

thank u soo much it helped lots 5/5 & subscribed

[@zwoooosh]

There are no feathers in the tomb, you're talking about the treasure chest. And I didn't get the treasure chest for 2 reasons 1) I don't know how to get most of the chests myself in the tombs and 2) this video is an assassin seal guide, not the chests.

[@ArjanP]

@boldog97 its hard to explain u need to go to data and the to secret places and then choose your catacomb and then there is a option to replay it *this is just quickly said*

[@Nirumano]

I had the same problem. I just jumped down from the door, ran over to the colosses or whatever, and climbed straight up them (alot faster route). But since I didn't drop the ladders, I missed out on checkpoints, and taking the seal didnt register. Took me ALOT of tries and searching the web in frustration to figure this out.

[@eltoro2808]

@eltoro2808 the pillar thing I refer to is at 3:21, as you can see it saves a lot of time by just climbing up by that, but don't because it's not how the game wants you to complete this.

[@cinqueottavi]

Unbelieveble I couldn't find the way out :-)

[@A1V1Productions]

Several questions friend 1. does the game get boring after you beat it 2. You have to unlock all the areas before getting ALL the seals or just some for the costume 3. Would you recommend dying clothing? 4 Which do you think looks cooler the dyed clothing/ Altiar's?

[@bosnia1997]

damn man your really good at this game :D hope u do more ac2 videos :P keep working :D

[@Jimbotheone]

@miciso666 a hidden area, with a chest. Was a real pain getting to. The camera angel made it real difficult to jump in the right direction.

[@drawuz]

that tomb is a piece of cake

[@tankXacw]

Your beast at A.C. man.
