Merchandise Lifts

The Lift is a device available in both singleplayer and mulitplayer mode of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. It consists of a rope going from ground level to the top of a beam where it goes through a pulley and is attached to a weight at roof level. The rope is held in place by a lever at ground level. Players can kick the lever, releasing the weight, and grab onto the rope which is pulled up as the weight descends. This allows players to get on top of a building in around two seconds.

Trivia

 * Ezio uses a lift on the ramparts of Monteriggioni to reach a part of the wall which was blocked during the attack by Cesare Borgia.
