Bayek didn't had to cut off his finger to use the hidden blade, he accidentally cut his finger while assassinating Eudoros the Hippo
during his assassination of eudoros the snake
Edit :- according to story , Bayek Refer Eudoros as snake , so i got confused due to that , Eudoros was the Hippo according to order of the ancient map
@@Manoj_Kumar1973 thx
@@mafiartx what is spoiling in this?? Bro most of the viewer of his channel already played all assassin creed till Valhalla , and if you are saying that giving spoilers of a game released 6yrs ago , man how it becomes spoilers?
Fym the game cams out years ago that’s your problem not his
@@mafiartx sorry if you feel i become rude , but for the point 🤣 his whole video you watched is just a storyline spoilers with even key facts of the story he gives in every scene
I love the rotation mechanism on Connor's hidden blade so he could wield it as a dagger. It doesn't get enough appreciation.
Same bro, same! Hell, I see shadow blade as it is an upgraded version of Ezio's hidden gunblade!
Yesss! That was one of my favorite things about AC3. It was so badass. Ezio’s hookblade in revelations was dope too!
Well good usage for roof to roof travel but thank good Frye's upgraded it to a grappling hook system which is not blade but add-on advancement on their gaunlets!
Ikr. It's a simple, yet ingenious, touch that makes it one of my favorites along with Edward's
It's a super impractical design that makes no sense
For those still confused:
Altair wrote the codex we find in AC2 which details the new schematics of the hidden blade. This "new" design bypasses the need to sacrifice the ring finger.
Proof? In revelations, Altair in his 60s and older has dual hidden blades, and his right hand still has his ring finger.
Altair also developed hidden blade combat. By giving the blade mechanism armor, this gives the user a chance to defend against enemies with much longer weapons.
Notice how you can't really fight with hidden blades in Valhalla? Ezio's second blade has actual armor, made straight from Altair's codex.
Also I think Altair actually designed the Hidden gun. Even Da Vince said these hidden blades upgrades and even more advanced than the Renaissance Revolution Era.
@@rahulsar2030 yes.
as shown in Assassin's Creed Revelations, Altaïr invented the Hidden Gun, using knowledge he gained from the Apple of Eden. he later tried to use the Gun on Abbas Sofian (then the self-proclaimed Mentor of the Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins, after driving Altaïr out of Masyaf and forcing him into exile for 20 years), resulting in Abbas's death.
and yeah, Altaïr thought the removal of a finger in order to use the Hidden Blade was a "false promise of paradise". so he redesigned the Hidden Blade so that the ring finger no longer had to be removed. of course, this doesn't change the fact that his left hand no longer has a ring finger...
@@darwinuang7764 I think ive also seen a theory that the ringfinger removal was modified and avoided as a tactic so that the assassins cannot be identified quickly as anyone walking without a ringfinger could be marked easily
@@GRR1MN1R indeed, the early Levantine Assassins could be identified by their missing ring fingers (if I recall correctly, Altaïr himself was identified using this method once). this is also one of the reasons why Altaïr created the new Hidden Blade.
The devs keep trying to make a new altair but keeps failing. Personally i neber played ac1 but i love it and love nit playing it somehow. It gives a sense of vagueness and the information yoru given by him in the later ac games seem to say he was the greatest assassin to ever live. People criticized revelations, but for me, revelations was a BADASS game! Some of the gameplay was bad but the story was amazing! 9/10 ACR, 9/10 AC2, 9.5/10 ACB. 10/10 AC Ezio collection, you get whst you paid for but at a discount + dlc!
Arno's hands down, sleek simple and versatile with a modest upgrade. Something I would picture a stealthy and light on their feet assassin to wield
Also talented able to take out 2 people at once with just one blade
@@MajinMuu another point to be added
@@MajinMuu feel like they should've kept that style with the games moving forward, though I don't mind the throwing knife/axe assassination but I feel as though they could've had both. One for targets right next to each other and the other for targets further away
i like the one from ac2 better it has a fucking pistol
His blade is also more slimmer than the rest. Like a stiletto compare to a long sword.
I love Eivor's reaction to the hidden blade. Pretty much goes how you'd expect when giving one to a viking. "This thing's awesome, why would I want to hide it? If im gonna kill someone, they're gonna know about it."
Plus it makes more sense that he exposes it, since it looks like a piece of jewelry
@@Chadius_Thundercock and vikings love jewelry
@@Chadius_Thundercockshe*
@@JFVideos960we really gonna debate this?
@@lordlierhook3368 nah, not really in the mood to. It was a stupid decision to make Eivor canonically female
The hook blade has two parts, you see. The hook and the blade.
An elegant design, no?
Was that supposed to be a joke?
@@armourvgyt it’s was the conversion exchanged between ezio and Yusuf in Ac revelations
@@LonelyForeverAlways ?? No?
Goofy
And I love how in the game it's only ever a hook lol. So you just stab somebody with this huge blunt hook. It is kinda good but I enjoy it
I kind of love the irony that Eivor, the character most opposite of the traditional assassins, wears the blade as originally intended, on the outside of the arm as we see in the first blade dlc.
It's funny how ubisoft forgot AC 2 clearly showing him the hidden blade being mounted as a hidden blade, not a combat blade.
yeah no. hidden blade must be worn inside the arm. ubisoft just retconned it so that they can sell the dlc for "ac" oddyses, a game that doesn't even has assassins in it. no rpg ac game is cannon nor are they ac games, they are just cash grab witcher 3 clones that against what ac meant and what ac's values were. mirage will also be cash grab to campitilize on the nostalgia of the og AC fans. but from all they have shown the game looks like origins with a new map with no good parkour mechanics and shitty systems
@@ForTheBrotherhood History may be written, but not in great detail. The statue sculptors weren't there to see Darius kill someone, after all
@@sarkastikcommander4555 that you dont like it doesnt mean it aint canon also the combat is way better wich tbh was what people mostly were relying on to kill enemies in ac games assassins creed isn't that much of a stealth game as people praise it to be and the parkour is not that different
@@delanovanraalte3646 NOT THAT DIFFERENT AND NOT A STEALTH GAME?? are you out of your mind go and play ac unity you will see why all these new rpgs are shit and they break cannon that was astablished. so yes they are not cannon never were never will be and they are not AC games.
I love Arno’s hidden blade, despite it not being dual he was stylish with it and the phantom blade shots were a great tool for distance kills
He didnt need duals, he could make double kills with just one
Dude, ezio glued a glock to his knives. Arno's no match .
@@hannibalburgers477 yes although Altaïr did it first, I still think the phantom blade was better because the cannon was very loud and crude
@@Cherno_editz Knife belt is even cooler
@@Cherno_editz well what would kill best a arrow or a gun?
Connor’s reaction when he got his hidden blades was so wholesome, definitely the happiest he was throughout the whole game.
I like that in Valhalla “ hey Ik we just met and you haven’t been trained to be a proper assassin but here take a sacred weapon that we also use as a key to unlock ancient temples holding our most treasured secrets“
Basim
in fairness he gave it to Sigurd who he had traveled with and trained for 2 years.
Basim said it's just a cold metal don't call it sacred or something like that to hytham
Basim did it on purpose
I like how that eivor is technically wearing the hidden blade right
Same
No they weren’t
Then its no hidden blade tho that bitch is wide open
@@Husk_999 they were, considering that Darius, the inventor of the Hidden Blade, used it the same way.
@@Husk_999 just stfu maybe you didn't play Odysset DLC
Always loved the Phantom Blade design in Unity. It's the best in my opinion. If combined with the grappling mechanism in Syndicate, it would be the most powerful and versatile Hidden Blade in the franchise
Hello. Did you know that the Phantom blade was also an invention of Leonardo da Vinci?
In Assassin's Creed Project Legacy is said that an italian Assassin named Francesco Vecellio (who also existed in reality, and was a painter) was an apprentice and former killer for Ezio Auditore during the time between Brotherhood and Revelations, and to complete a mission Francesco asked his mentor (Ezio) to have a hidden gun like the Ezio's one, but Ezio refused because he considered the Hidden gun inadequate for a not enough skilled Assassin like Francesco
However, he decided to accept anyway his request to have a medium distance adequate weapon (and to give him a more silent and less dangerous one) and asked Leonardo to create something with that characteristics
And so... the Phantom blade was born, and the first Assassin to use one was Francesco Vecellio
It's a shame that they didn't mention at least the name of Leonardo or Francesco in Unity when Mirabeau introduced the Phantom blade, but probably given the low quality of the game, the devs didn't even knew about Project Legacy
Ah yes the Devs didn't know about their own project
@@R2-D2... yes because it's not their own. At the start of every game you see always "produced by Ubisoft Montreal", or Ubisoft Quebec, or Ubisoft whatever, and the writers are never the same for the games (for example the writer of Valhalla is the same for AC4 and Revelations but not for the other two Ezio's game, Odyssey and Syndicate have the same devs too but not Origins, and so on)
Project Legacy came out at the time of Brotherhood in 2010 and was forgotten, in fact even 80% of fans don't even know about it, and it's no news that the several studios don't communicate between them and this is why you see a lot of plot holes in the games, retcons or just contrasting lore in different games. You can thank the excessive division of mansions for that, without a unique head to coordinate everything
@@fabiopoma8645 no wonder why Odyssey and Syndicate are so bad
@@R2-D2... yeah literally. You see the pattern
Bro wrote a novel
I’d say design wise, I favor Ezio’s hidden blades from Revelations, including the hookblade. But when it comes to practicality, I’d say Connor/Ratonhnhaké:ton’s hidden blades were best. But overall, I’d say that my personal favorite of them all has to be Eivor’s hidden blade from Valhalla.
Fair, eivors is the most intricate design wise and I'll always love the rotating blade connor uses
@@damoose7672 bro i dont really know if eivor has the hidden paet down
@@Rapscalian yeah but that blade looks the prettiest
@@Rapscalian Didn't you know? Eivor's is called a visible blade.
@@thesnep4757 Nah, it’s just a blade, a blade he stabs through people's necks with extreme force.
The phantom Blade is the best Hidden blade since it offers a stealthy ranged attack and also it look badass.
Most practical blade would be Connor's. You eject, stab and swivel it to wield like a dagger. Perfectly fits with his brutish playstyle.
Arno's phantom blade is the best in my opinion, very helpful when doing heists and I feel more like an assassin when using it.
Two things:
1. I didn't realise that Dual Hidden Blades are reserved for Master Assassins.
2. Bayek lost his ring finger on accident when using the Hidden Blade against Eudoros. A mistake it may have been, but, I believe it shows the flaw in the design of the Hidden Blade. Seeing as how you wear it on your inner forearm.
Yeah sure Arno's blades are cool but Connors are the coolest by a landslide. Just the fact that you can flip them out into daggers is so cool and shows a new level of skill is required. They're really only the kind of hidden blades that an extremely skilled assassin could effectively make use of.
Actually only the right blade could be turned into a dagger I think
@@Cherno_editz no it was actually both if you watch closely when fighting with the hidden blades or doing a double assassination you can see both blades went into daggers
@@phantomwolf1403I think it’s because we hardly don’t use the hidden blades it’s either the tomahawk or an Axe
Actually Kassandra acquired a Hidden Blade during her travels around the world. When she met Eivor for the first time, they had a short crossing of their respective blades.
I wan't to see how she got involved with the brotherhood.
Imagine if Aya herself gave Kassandra her hidden blade. You actually get the hidden blade in Odyssey when you finish the last DLC and Kassandra goes to Egypt.
A family reunion would be just incredible.
@@allanmhanson yeah, that would be cool
I dont remember that, I remember in my gameplay eivor uses the hidden blade to defend and kassandra uses a sword, but I can be wrong
@@halleyreusluz "Crossing" was meant a bit figuratively. But we see both use them, and each looking a bit confused , the other having one.
It's even used in promotional artwork for the DLC
@@FelixTeeberg ah, I get It, interesting
You actually get a hidden blade in Odyssey after finishing the new DLC released last year. But it's just aesthetic, in the gameplay you keep using Leonida's spear.
I've always loved that each game brought a new Deliverance of hidden blade it really sucks that they went back to the style of one single blade in the later games but hands down I think Connor has the best hidden blade of all not only does he have two but one of his hidden blades can flip out to be a small dagger which can be combo with many other weapons other than just hidden blades ezio's hook blade comes in second for me and arno's phantom blade is definitely a runner-up however Connor's just has more usage
Connors is by far the most impractical.
@@redhoodie4111 how though it aids combat with other weapons, it allows the blade to be weld in a more comfortable position so it alone can be used in combat better, and because it can be removed that would allow easier maintance so if the blade got damaged
Eivor be like "I still want my ring finger thank you very much"
It really is interesting to see how the blade changed over time, both in-game as well as by lore-history.
We see the first blade being used over the hand both by the unnamed assailant who attacked Cassandra/Alexios, and in the assassination of Xerxes by Darius, but the same blade is under the arm when used centuries later by Aya. After that, only a Viking carried it over the arm.
I miss the uniqueness of the hidden blades like the hook blade (from AC:R), phantom blade (from AC: Unity) and the grapple blade (from AC: Sydicate).
AcTuAlLy, the blade aya gave to bayek is a replica of Darius’ blade. Aya kept the real one, you can see it in photo mode they look exactly the same while bayek’s looks completely different(makes sense considering she is a descendant of darius and the blade is bound to her by blood). When she said it killed xerxes she probably meant it was that weapon system was used to kill him, not that exact blade.
5:22 love how bayek almost loses a hand when using the blades for the first time
I understand the "viking honor" part but unless you got a longer blade having it on the outside is not practical. In every game it showed the blade range a but after the fingers when extended,
But you could still turn your hand upward and so stab deep if needed.
So a normal blade that is on the outside won't be able to stab deep
I think it has nothing to do with honor and that's just tounge and cheek, she thinks that the blade is what cut off their fingers and doesn't want to lose hers, so she puts it on top. Also it wouldn't matter top or bottom, if the point the blade comes out of is aligned with the wrist it would be the same distance top or bottom.
@@michag4337 but you can't bend your hand as much down as up, and it hurts if you do so
@@saintbread5080 I mean you can if you have wrist flexiblility and it doesn't matter you don't flex your had up when it's on bottom, the point is you more or less put your hand on them and the blade comes out. your hand would be at about a 45, where as on top Evior uses it as a dagger striking with it out, instead of putting the opening against their target and firing it in. idk i played through 4, then just got valhalla, but either way you put it, it works just fine, it's clearly meant to but used under as a sort of wrist mounted switch blade, but it works just as well as top wrist mounted fixed blade, like baraka from MK.
The thing to remember with it on top is you just have to clear the blade, if you have it 10degree down of 90, it makes no difference so long as the blade doesn't shoot into your hand, since it's not intended to be fought with it's mean for one quick stab to the liver or throat (The xray kills in game look like eivor uses a sword to perform them instead of the hidden blade so i don't think they use it very much, unlike ezio or Altiar.)
Arnos the only one who properly got his hidden blade, but we might see basim get his to
I love how they connected Odyssey with Origins.
Ezio blade had most versitile design. Pretty much three in one. A blade, a pistol, and a dart gun. The hook came later, but damn, finishers were brutal.
I love revelations so damn much, its probably my favourite because it ends his story and also the finisher with the sword where you stab in the neck and spin it around is so badass
Altair and Ezio's hidden blades are always the best. Comes with a gun, "but the size of a humming bird"!!!
7:00 yeah it’s true, it’s because Viking never use somethings that help you to win easy, they fight with honor, they are loyal
Always liked how in Ezio's cutscene the blade clips 10 miles away from it's socket.
Man. Eivor's blade is goddamn beutiful
Arno and Connor have the best, the phantom blade’s range was a great advancement which i hope we get something like it again and the daggers need to come back
All of this because Bayek's fault. Don't know why they add it as a custom to cut your finger. I ever wondered why Assassin must cut out his finger to use hidden blade, and finally answered that all of this because of Bayek carelessness.
He lost it while taking down the order. The lifelong purpose of all assassins and to me there's nothing more traditional in respect to the one who began the movement careless or not lol
I didn’t enjoy and play the later games (odyssey/valhalla) but I do like that Darius was an overhand blade user and then later on, Eivor was too but they got disrespected for it. I doubt the assassin who called them out didn’t even know Darius was like that too
they never had to cut off the finger they only cut it as a sign of respect for the first siua bayek killer who accidentally lost his finger while killing the hippo thats where the motif came from
You are so very wrong. While you are correct that they cut off their fingers before using their blades, if they hadn’t they’d still be at risk of losing their fingers. Otherwise Altaïr wouldn’t have had to modify it.
Ezio's looks the most beautiful with the Italian design and has 2 of them. He hides it well with his cap and is very sharp and extremely effective as a tool of weapon.
He takes this as the best Blade imo. But I also love Altaïr and Arno's
My favourites are Ezio's and the Fryed twins just because of the hidden gun and batman's grappling gun
Useful, yes but the problem with them was they stood out too much, especially in that time period. The amount of armor, the dart launcher and the bulky glove really should've given them away as suspicious individuals if not assassins.
Another fun fact I read. I don’t know if it’s true but I saw that the reason why eivors blade is more flattering is because it was made as more of a display piece that also functions normally. Which explains why it’s gold and has a big gem in it
I mean, vikings did care about fashion alot so it makes sense
5:55 It is truely unknown how Kassandra got her hidden blades but in AC Valhalla during a mission in other place (like in Ireland, I don't remember the name of that island) Kassandra had a hidden blade, due to usage of Staff of Hermes Trismegistus (which granted her life power for over 2 milleniums) and connection to Assassin family she somehow managed to get them. It is also cool that you've mentioned that Bayek's blade was formerly Darius' blade, the reason why Bayek accidently cut off his finger is visible in AC Odyssey the way Darius and Eivor were wearing the hidden blade was the reason why they didn't lose their ring fingers.
I always love the way Edward toss the broken hidden blade away like he doesn’t give a fuck about it😂
Assassin's Creed Valhalla also pays tribute to the way Darius used his blade (on top of the wrist instead of under it).
Hmmm best one for practical usage... the phantom blade and Connor's blades where one can be modified into a dagger as an off-hand weapon
I still LOVE Eivor’s hidden blade. It’s so iconic! I love them all though, not just hers. But hers is definitely the most beautiful and elegant…except for the Standard Ottoman Hook Blade lol 😂
I think the best is from Ezio and Jacob because are the most equipated but my favorite is the Aguilar’s Hidden Blade 😊
I choose to believe that Leonardo personally modified the blade. That just fits his character
I love how Eivor is like “fuck that, I don’t wanna lose a finger.”
My favorite design has to be Ezio’s though. I might pick up a set for the next ren fair I go to.
The hook blade from ACR I swear that one was my personal fav and ezio is the fav assassin before rogue to valhalla
Every Assassin's first leap of faith please ❤️
okay i will try
@@mentorAKG29 you sure? I mean, sure AC Odyssey and Vallhalla could gives us the first leap of faith for the protaganists, but we can't exactly know for most of remaining ones since they propbably did this on off-script/screen more than times we seen it.
I have always been a fan of the phantom blade. It would be very useful to have range and still be silent.
I think the only one that truly earned the hidden blade is Connor Kenway, yes of course altair earned it, it also because he was in the assassin's brotherhood, but connor earned it because he wins Achilles' heart and truly became his successor
I hope to see more hidden blades like Altaïr's and Ezio's in the future, blades built for full-fledged combat and not just assassinations. "But Pram," you might ask. "Won't they succumb to their frail designs and break after one bout?"
Well, considering the strength of Isu metal, that won't be a huge issue, even if the alloy isn't _indestructible._ So you got the perks of both a proper melee weapon, and an assassination tool all in one! _channels inner Ainsley Harriott_ "Ain't that lovely, heheh"
Not all blades are made of th isu metal alloy tho, only a few have ever been produced since altair figured out how to make it. Th recipe for this metal alloy no longer exists anyway, as altair subsequently destroyed it for fear of it falling into th hands of enemies
Plus the fact that the times of eivor they still had that small little porblem and thats the ring finger removing and i think eivor didnt want that
They seriously need to bring back hidden blade combat and have more finisher animations for each weapon type and they have to trigger each time when you deliver the final blow instead of just rag doll away. Notice how in the newer assassins creed games they got real lazy with the animation not just the finisher but with the cutscenes as well🥹
Arno has the best hidden-blade, fit for an asssassin.
All assassins way before Altair's new version off the hidden-blade are not able to weild 2 hidden-blades, even at the rank of master assassin.
In my opinion arno’s, bayek’s and altaïr’s hidden blades are the best, I like the fact It’s just 1 blade, I can assimilate more with a stealth assassin, but in gameplay two hidden blades are most useful.
Actually the assassins called Darius, the one who killed king xerses is the one with the first hidden blade. He invented it himself for his mission
That’s just the new ac ruining the story line
@@user-ze8yy8jg1f no that was already known during the ezio trilogy
I like evior's method all the way. I'm sorry but it was odd for a weapon like this to be used how the hidden ones use it ever since. Sure its a stealth weapon but I value my fingers and felt like I was the predator
All you would need to do to make it "hidden" again is wrap a piece of cloth around it, boom it's a hidden blade again
Everyone rags on Evoir for wearing it the same way Darius did, but no one rags on Darius for how he wore it
Because most people aren’t realizing, that was the way it was intended 😂 Darius forged the blade to kill Xeroxes and when Bayek obtained the blade he wore the wrong way and cut off his finger lmao.
The Comments have showned me that while...a lot of the Assassin's Creed stuff keep getting fucked up...there still a lot of consistently in the games...like the Hidden Blade...you know...(To me) the most Important Piece of the Assassin's
Always did like the fact that Eivor never really was an Assassin, they just happened to get caught up in the fight between the Order and the Brotherhood... or I guess the Hidden Ones at that point in history.
also i'm just sayin, we were long overdue for a viking era AC game. i never cared that it was an ARPG more than a stealth game, it makes sense that a vikingr would favor charging through the front door over sneaking around in the bushes. never quite understood why Odyssey and Valhalla get as much hate as they do
I'd call Kassandra and Eivor, as Hidden One agents. They ally themselves with the hidden ones, but not in their ranks.
As a symbol of their allegiance, both Kassandra and Eivor have Hidden Blades.
(In Valhalla, she has one)
@@TheHammerGuy94 I mean, Kassandra was the very first "Assassin" even before Bayek, there just was never a Brotherhood or creed yet. Bayek was the first to instill the Brotherhood... so for all we know, Kassandra actually did eventually join the Hidden Ones since they pretty much operated exactly how she did. It would make sense since the hidden blade wasn't invented until Bakey's era, via the DLC, and she didn't have one at any point during Oddysey. But then she magically has one in Valhalla, and it looks like it was custom-tailored to her, so....
maybe...? might never get a definitive answer on that
Agree, I love this game so much :)
You're telling me some of these dudes were scaling walls while missing a finger? Never knew that
The first assassin's is doris at in ac odyssey hidden blade dlc it reveals doris took care of kassandra or Alexios child which is the main protagonist in origin and doris had the first hidden blade
Something so elegant, yet simple. The hidden blade has yet room for improvement. Its design is based on stealth, which means the swiftness of the kill. By incorporating a layer of armor (leather or metal) you can fend off short to mid range swords (As seen in AC3 and Brotherhood). Waiting to see further improvements in AC Mirage.
Kassandra:i just have it 😂😂😂
I’d have to say ezios hidden blade is the best one design wise bc the leather with the metal insignia on top with a red gem is nice also you left out Desmond
Darius was the first recorded use of the hidden blade when he killed xerxes, not bayek
Arno's is effective cause of the design, easy to carry and only to stealth kill enemies but the best one is Bayek's cause every upgrade to the blade changes the design and the materials
Does Desmond looks just like Altair or is that just me? It’s unable to be unnoticed now
There's just something about the way Connor got his blades.
On a surface level it seems so basic and simple : Achilles gives him the blades while connor grins gleefully when receiving them and that's it.
But on a deeper level imo it's basically the first gift Connor ever got from a father figure, the first gift he probably got in years since his mother died of course he would be happy, granted you normally don't give kids weapons since the hidden blades aren't toys but a tool for killing but it is a present nonetheless, what's bittersweet about this same gift is that he uses them to kill his actual father.
Replaying ACIII just made me look at it differently compared to when I first played years ago, it made me think : Damn this is a kid who was forced into a life of suffering, pain and injustice while doing everything he can to fight back and protect what he held dear, He pushed back the templars, and dismantled their plans yet still he lost his home and his people thought that he was a traitor, but even with all the sh*t that he went through he still did his best to do what was right
While everyone got theirs blade in a sacred moment,Eivor got her blade during a party while having fun lol, she was like : yo nice stuff, but i am not using it 98% of the game lol"
I'm kinda disappointed you didn't put the hookblade from revelations but otherwise very cool video 🤯🤯🤯
Connor's blade on the off hand and the phantom blade on the main hand. That's my assassin setup.
If the hidden blade that Bayek has is Darius's, at what point in the passing down of the hidden blade did they decide to wear it the other way around?
Futuristic Hidden Blade: A unique take on the hidden blade design, this replaces the usual sharp metal, advanced construction, and string mechanism, replacing it with an energy emitter that can create a powerful energy blade to deflect attacks, and keep it much more compact due to the size of it.
Can be placed on the top and the bottom of the forearm.
Akg29 I’m a big fan and I love the fun fact thing pls keep up the good work
Something I don't understand is the means of modifying the blade so you could keep your ring finger. I wouldn't mind too much, but aside from the games since Origins, no other mainline AC game ever took place before the first. That means the first game didn't really need the cutting of the ring fingers.
I never got how Edward knew that broken blade-thing he found in the corpse was supposed to be the hidden blade Duncan mentioned.. and then he knows exactly how to wear it and use it.. out of the blue. Great game nonetheless
he doesn't wear or use the one he finds. Edward gets his hidden blades given to him by tricking templars into believing he was a real assassin and a traitor
My take is that he makes interpretations based on what Rodgers and Du Casse says. Sorry English isn't my native tongue.
I while i loved all of Ezio's blade upgrades and the phantom blade, Connor's pivot blade is still my favorite.
Also if you pay attention, through the games Ubisoft made the blades shorter and more stuby than thin
Literally Edward: Ooo, legendary blade
6:40 uhm...it wasn't basim who gave sigurd the hidden blade, sigurd took it from a hidden one named ammon which he killed in self defense, the story behind how he got the hidden blade is told in a prequel comic called "song of glory"
Ngl. Arno Probably or If not did. Had the best assassin initiation, he battled his past. Killed his old self to become his new self, then the visions were OP and dialogue
I love when Edward is like:"Fuck that" 😂
Aya bayak when the talk and bayek gets the hidden Blade in oddesy it explains who made it and killed xexes
Darius needs his own game because it would be great to play the first assassin who created the first hidden blade
After centuries since Darius, only Eivor who wore the hidden blade properly 😅
But, since Ezio, every Assassin can wear Hidden Blade without amputing their ring finger. Thanks to Altäir's codex and Leonardo da Vinci.
And Desmond Miles acquired his hidden blade from Lucy Stillman at the end of AC2
Funny how a Viking wears the hidden blade the first and safer way
but also inpractical
I really hope they bring back hidden blade combat
Kassandra actually got a hidden blade from the Korfu Quest.
Frye twins bc they got multi function ones zip line, and poison dart although it’s quite bulky
7:00 you could tell the face said fair enough
My favorite blade is Darius. Very Persian style and blade was bigger than normal
If I was Altair I would've just knocked the guy out rather than kill him. He was just a civilian after all
I was waiting for this video
Darius had his blade on top… yet kassandra had hers underneath in her recent cameo? And evior wore his on top and bayek just randomly put it underneath?
Speaking of Edward Kenway, am I the only one who thinks the outfit he borrows from Duncan Walpole is prettier than his original costume? It remembers Arno Dorian's outfit
