Perform Chain Assassinations

If you have the Chain Assassination skill unlocked, you can use your Throwing Knife to assassinate a second enemy from a distance after performing the first assassination.

List of All Skills

Destroy Alarms

Hitting the alarm in an outpost with a Throwing Knife will destroy it, preventing additional enemies from coming to aid their allies who are engaged in combat with you.

Immobilize Armored Enemies

Throwing a knife at an armored enemy's feet will temporarily immobilize them, providing you with the opportunity to eliminate them while they are incapacitated.

Create Chaos from a Distance

Use your Throwing Knives to interact with objects in the environment and handle various situations. For example, you can hit a sack of dust to create a temporary smoke bomb. Additionally, striking a flaming vase will cause it to explode, eliminating enemies who are too close to it.

How to Unlock Throwing Knife

Talk to Ibn Musa

Tools can be unlocked by interacting Ibn Musa at any Hidden Ones' Bureau.

You'll be able to unlock a tool after finishing the Branching Out mission after assassinating Al-Ghul during the First Order.

The next unlocks are after unlocking Extra Tool Capacity 1, 2, and 3 respectively under the Trickster skills tree.
