Walkthrough:

 

Step 1: Complete the story

This step is simple enough just playthrough the game all the way to the end. Chances are you will get most of the Miscellaneous trophies by the end but you don't need to get them before you complete the game as you can continue playing after you've beaten it. I suggest you do all of the tombs before you finish the game. going through all of the tombs not only unlock you trophies but give you the best armor in the game which will help you as you playthrough the game.There is one miscellaneous trophy that you MUST get before the end of the game to prevent you from having to do another playthrough and that is Fly Swatter. By the end of this section you should have all of the story related trophies, all the tomb related trophies and Fly Swatter.

 

Step 2: Combat trophies

You should have completed the story by now and chances are you have some if not most of the combat related trophies already. If you don't have them now is the perfect time to do so. You don't have any missions to worry about so you can just go around killing guards in the ways necessary to get the trophies. By the end of this section you should have the trophies Street Cleaner, Messer Sandman, Doctor, No-Hitter and Sweeper.

 

Step 3: Side missions and Money

After the story you should have a lot of money. This is the perfect opportunity for you to get yourself some trophies. You should by enough courtesans, buy paintings, upgrade your stronghold, anything with money. You should also do all of the side missions in this step as well. This is also a good time to get the view point trophies even though by this point you probably already have them. By the end of this section you should have the following trophies Kleptomaniac, High Dive, I like the View, Lightning Strike, Red Light Addict, Man of the People, Victory lies in Preparation, Art Connoisseur, Assassin for Hire, Macho Man, Steal Home, Mailman, Handy Man and Podestà of Monteriggioni.

 

Step 4: Collectibles

These should be some of the last trophies you go for. The longest and arguably the most frustrating trophies in the game are saved for this step. Don't worry though as it's not that bad when you use a map for the locations of the Feathers and Glyphs. You should also get all the statuettes in your Villa if you haven't already. At the end of this section you should have the trophies Myth Maker, Vitruvian Man, Tip of the Iceberg, A Piece of the Puzzle, In Memory of Pertruccio and Show your Colors.

 

Step 5: Clean up

After you've completed the story you will now have all the time in the world to get the remaining trophies. Any trophy you don't have at this point should be gotten in this step. If you've beaten the game and haven't gotten a story related trophy or you know you've earned a trophy but it glitched you will need to start a new game to earn the missing trophy.

Continue to beat the missions for the thieves guild and you will unlock the assassination mission. For the assassination first you must take out the archers on the roof. Then you must enter the building that Emilio is in. I highly suggest you enter from the rooftops rather than from the main entrance. There are a lot of guards in the area and you don't want to pick a fight with them. Once you are in the building sneak onto the main staircase where you will find Emilio.

Scattered throughout each city there are view points. To synchronize with them you must climb to the very top of them and push :triangle:. The view points stick out like sore thumbs as they are very tall and normally have a wooden plank on one side and a hay bale under it. Once you find one of the view points in the city look at your map and you will see other view points that you've spotted. The view points on the map are signified by an eagle.

During the first DNA sequence you will eventually need to deliver a letter for your father. Accept the mission and complete it.

The mission is not needed for the trophy but you get it early on and it will take you right near the building you need to jump from. Complete the mission and beat up Duchio. Then climb the big white building he was standing next to. Once you climb to the top of the building you will see a very tall tower. It looks like it's connected to the building but it's not and you will need to jump over to it. Continue to climb that tower until you reach the top. Synchronize when you're at the top and jump from the wooden plank into the bale of hay below and you will get the trophy.

22.jpg  Street Cleaner (Bronze Trophy)

Hide 5 dead bodies in a Bale of Hay.

Simply go to a bale of hay and kill any people that are near it. Press the :circle: button to pick them up and carry them next to the bale of hay. Once you are next to it face it and hit the :circle: button again and Ezio will throw the dead body into the bale of hay. It can be a citizen or guard it doesn't matter. Do this 5 times and you will get the trophy. The people must be thrown in the same bale of hay for the trophy to pop up.

 

23.jpg  Fly Swatter (Bronze Trophy)

Kick a Guard while using the Flying Machine.

In DNA sequence 8 you will fly the Flying Machine to your assassination target. To kick a guard while your flying simply hold :l1: and fly towards him. Ezio will lock on to the guard and kick him as he passes. I suggest you do this on the first set of archers you see as they are out in the open and pretty easy to kill. This is in fact a missable trophy. If you do not get a target you will not be able to get the trophy as it is the only time in the game where you use the Flying Machine. If you are near the end and haven't kicked a guard yet simply fly into a building or the ground so you die and can start from the beginning of the flying sequence.

Stun 4 guards at once by throwing sand in their face.

To unlock the ability to throw sand you must talk to the trainer that is outside of your Auditore stronghold. Talk to him and go down to special moves. Then go into unarmed and complete the training. Now that you have the ability unlocked find a group of soldiers that are walking around and hold :square:. Once you're fully charged let go of :square: and hit at least 4 guards with the sand. Once they are hit with the sand you will get the trophy. Here is a video of how it's done.

 

 

25.jpg  Doctor (Bronze Trophy)

Perform an Air Assassination on a Poisoned NPC.

Once they start going crazy and flailing their arms around jump towards them and assassinate them. Once you kill him you will get the trophy. Below is a video on how to do it. Thanks for UH60Jonathan the video.

 

 

26.jpg  No-hitter (Bronze Trophy)

Kill 10 enemies while remaining in conflict without being hit.

This one sounds harder than it actually is. Once you can counter that's all you really need for this trophy. Get into a big group of guards and make sure there is enough there. If there isn't enough guards simply provoke the guards in some way and run into another big group of guards and there should be enough. You must kill 10 enemies without leaving battle without being hit. Just continue to counter until you've killed 10 enemies. This may take a few tries but once you master the counter skill this should be no problem at all.

 

Alternatively you could do what is shown in this video. For this method to work though you must have smoke bombs available to you. Thanks XCVii007r1 for the video.

is that the only missable trophy?

 

So far I've only done one part of the game with the flying machine. I'm not sure if there are any other parts in the game that use this as of now. I am also not sure if it is like Assassin's Creed 1 where after the game you got to just play around. There is a lot more missable trophies if you can't play once you beat the game but as of now there is only one.

I've yet to see any collectible guides anywhere. You may be the first! I found all the statues around your uncle Mario's town that are to be placed on the pedestals surrounding the back area of the villa. They're all within the town, so there's no need to go outside the walls. The reward isn't an item, so don't freak out if you don't find all the statues.

 

You also can't use a treasure map to find them. The treasure maps only show the location of chests of gold.

thanks for the guide, seems decent enough.

 

tho i read the first 2 and i already know too much about the game from them now without playing it, they arent big spoliers but they are still spoliers, not critizing, thanks for taking the time to write it, i just wish i didnt read those lol

 

You literally experience both of them within 5 minutes of starting up the game. If you're playing the game chances are you have gotten those ones even before you thought about looking at a guide. If you really think they are spoilers I will put them in tags but I honestly don't believe they are.

anyway you can estimate time to platinum?? rentable?

 

I'm not sure how long it's going to take for the collectibles. The story alone will take you about 20 hours to complete. I'm thinking right now it will take about 25-30 hours to complete. I'm unsure though when I get the platinum I will tell you what time I finished it at.
