Assassin's Creed 2 Walkthrough

You can silently assassinate the guard at the south end of the hall and pull a switch to open a door to the next hall. To the left is a guard that patrols in a circle pattern, moving between the northern and southern halves of the hall. When he's behind the wall to the left, move forward and take cover in the next group of priests. The second section of the hall is a bit tougher, as the guards at the far end will spot you if you repeat the last move. When the second patrolling guard goes behind the wall to the left, follow him slowly. You can slip behind him and behind the other guards staring down the hallway to open the next gate.

Finally, you reach the massive hall where Rodrigo Boriga is speaking. Move along the high platforms to cross to the far side of the room and position yourself directly above Rodrigo. Lock onto him and execute an assassination. Ezio jumps down and a cut scene shows Rodrigo's death.

Sort of. Borigo won't be so easily killed, so you've got to fight him straight up. You start with a bit of an advantage, as you've got clones of Ezio fighting with you. They won't really do any damage, but they will distract Rodrigo for you. Be aggressive in your attack, constantly throwing sword strikes. Don't bother trying to counter at this point—if you're too cautious, Rodrigo will kill all of your clones and nullify the advantage.

Rodrigo eventually retreats. Use eagle vision to spot a couple of spots on the wall that you can activate to open the secret passage Rodrigo escaped into. Run down the secret hall and Ezio will confront the enemy for the last time, mano a mano.

Don't give Rodrigo a chance. Grab the old man and throw him against a wall. As he tries to get up, you can hit Rodrigo Boriga with two kicks and then immediately grab him again. Repeatedly throw him against a wall, kick him, and pick him back up. This is the easiest part of the fight, and also the last. When you defeat Rodrigo, the game is over.
