Assassin's Creed: Fighting with the shortsword.

My favourite weapon. The shortsword is much faster than the sword. It even allows you to defend an attack by attacking yourself.

I often switch the enemy to keep them away from me. Primary targets are enemies which want to attack me, and if there are no primary targets, I try to attack guards which seem to be shocked or absent.

Is it possible to do the same move every time... you fight or counter?? One of them is my favorite moves...

[Granjew]

No, it is random.

how do I Switch Targets? 5/5 ur kickass at this game, when will Fighting lesson 3 come out ? :P You should make more tutorials, like more fighting, a free-run tutorial maybe and all, it would be great!

[Granjew]

Tnx :)

You need to move towards the guard you want to attack. He then gets highlighted. When you attack him he'll be marked as target with the arrow above his head.

I'm working on the 3rd tuturial, but most has already been shown. Will take a month or two, not much time at the moment. Exams

About free running: Unfortunately in AC that's hardly more than just running with High Profile and Legs, everything else will be done by AC itself and it would be covered already by the moves tutorials.

what is the long sword best suited for?

[Granjew]

Stronger enemies ... because they use to counter when you're using the shortsword.

That was badass.

[darkhatir]

counter is when the attacker steps in to attack and you press counter right before he hits you. attack is when you become the attacker

[EoLoLoIoOoT]

you could have done a defense break for variety, but still brilliant

[RoyCoert]

ya your right :P, still ur pretty good, but I sometimes ask to much xD I thought me much, although I don't play AC anymore, good tut:P
