Assassin's Creed II Guide

Assassin Tombs

To unlock the “Armor of Altair” set in the Sanctuary inside the Villa Auditore in Monteriggioni, you must collect six seals from the tombs of assassins long past.

There are six such tombs in Assassin's Creed II. The first tomb you will visit is under the Santa Maria Novella during Sequence 4 as part of the main story. The other five tombs are optional, but will appear on the map (denoted by an assassin's symbol icon) when they become available.

The tombs are hidden deep within each location, and require the completion of a number of “climbing puzzles” to uncover.

Collect all six seals and plug them into the indentations on the base of each statue in the Sanctuary to obtain the Armor of Altair, which is the strongest armour in the game and never needs to be repaired.

Darius' tomb is the first you find on returning to Firenze/Florence after visiting the sanctum and you have to do it to leave the catacombs after eavesdropping on the meeting plotting the assassination attempt where you rescue Lorenzo from di Pazzi's men. This is only the optional ones. Just finished the Auditore family tomb and figuring out how to get the chest above the section where you have to swim through, I came on to get a hint as to how.

I think this guide is missing a tomb or does the Auditore Family Crypt in Monteriggioni contain the seal of Daruns as well?
