“Guards killed on horseback” for guild challenges

assassins-creed-brotherhood

One of the Guild Challenges for the Mercenary's Guild in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood states:

  • 25 Guards killed while on horseback

Does this mean I need to kill 25 guards while I am on a horse, or kill 25 guards while they are on a horse?

I tried testing both but the counter seemed to increment way less than the number of each type that I killed, so I'm not sure if I'm missing some special requirement.

According to the Assassin's Creed Wiki,

"On horseback" means that the guards must spawn on horseback, not Ezio.

and this walkthrough,

You are not on the horse, killing guards. You have to kill the guards that ride horses. Some guards start out on foot, but will jump on a horse if you attack them. They do not count. The guard must spawn on the horse.

it appears that Ezio is allowed to be on foot, and must kill 25 guards who spawn on horseback.
