Game: Assassin's Creed Brotherhood (Ezio Collection)
VR Training: Stealth Assassination #1, #2, #3
All Weapons + Hidden Blade Only

The main thing I learned from these is just how powerful switching between Pistol and Crossbow can be, immediately after firing off a shot. The fastest "rapid-fire" one can pull off is when you shoot a Crossbow Bolt at someone, immediately switch to Hidden Gun and blast someone else with it.

I do a nice combo-cycle of Crossbow Shot -> H.Blade Low Profile Kill -> Hidden Gunshot close to the beginning of All Weapons 2 that I'm pretty proud of.

Another noteworthy moment is in All Weapons 3, where I throw a Smoke Bomb to stun one of the two guards staring at each other, gun down the other one, then Cross Out the first, stunned one. Brotherhood is the first AC game that lets you throw Smoke Bombs at enemies in order to set them or nearby enemies for stealth kills. Revelations was the first game to use the Bomb System that the current-gen games (Unity and Syndicate) will later re-adopt. AC3/AC4/Rogue, as far as I'm aware, do not let you Throw Smoke Bombs, which is a bit of a shame because it means we can be less creative.
