After a few generous emails and suggestions from readers and because donations
seems to be a growing trend among other contemporary guide writers, I have
decided to put in the option to allow you to donate some money to me for
helping you out if you wish to do so.
Although I make these guides for free in my spare time, I probably don�t
need to point out to gamers that purchasing games is an extremely expensive
hobby (games in Australia cost on average $90 - $120) and writing guides for
them can be a very long, incredibly difficult and thankless task at the best
of times, but one that is very challenging and occasionally rewarding.
Considering you could be paying upwards of $20+ for guides in a game shop,these
free and easily available guides make a cost-effective substitute. Whilst most
are happy to use and move on without a word I would move that a simple donation
is a great, easy way to say thanks if you feel that my guide has saved you some
time, money and frustration in some small way.
By no means feel obligated to donate just for viewing my guide, but if you are
feeling a little generous I certainly won�t object! Any amount is appreciated
whether it be 10 cents or $10.
Thankyou for all that read this far, if you are interested in donating, my
Paypal address is listed below, if not, skip down to the table of contents
below and get stuck into the pirate's life on the high seas with Assassin's
Creed IV and plunder that world crazy!

\ |
\______________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Naval Combat
=====================
When we gain control of our main man for the first time, follow the waypoint
marker up to the back of the boat and interact with the steering wheel to take
control of the vessel. As we do this, the game will pop-up a quick tutorial
message on how to use the cannons on the side of the ship. Essentially, we need
to face the side of our ship where we wish to fire them. Easy! We can even use
the left trigger for a white aiming indicator to appear for assistance.
There are four gunships in the immediate area, so take this time to adjust to
the ship�s controls, noting that you can speed up or slow down. It should be
noted that the slower you are piloting the ship, the more manoeuvrable it will
become. Once you have destroyed enough of the gunships, a brig will show up.
Perform the same broadside attacks on the brig until a scene plays out.
=====================
Part 2: Pursuit
=====================
Now that we are back in control, swim forward between the burning chunks of
ship ahead until you reach the green objective marker on the shore in the
distance. As you approach a cut-scene will commence.
Now that we are back on solid ground run up the hill in front of you and follow
the path around to the left. Cross the rope bridge and use the logs beyond it
to cross the small river. On the far side climb the wooden supports directly
in front of you up to the observation platform. Climb again, to the next
platform above. From here hop onto the log and follow the set platforming path
over to the platform at the top of the cliff. Climb the building here for a
viewpoint that we can synchronise to reveal part of the map.
Dive down into the palm fronds below and then follow the path, the camera
should pan over to the right to show you the assassin. Work your way over to
the stairs where the assassin went. Climb the wooden wall at the top of the
stairs.
Once you reach the top, use the slanted platform in front to reach the top of
the house. From here, jump over to the viewpoint tower. Again, climb to the top
and synchronise. Now dive into the water below. Move downriver a short way and
the assassin will reveal himself again.
Afterwards, the game will get you to try free running. Get onto the bridge and
run off it into the tree at the end. Follow the assassin through the trees and
into the swampy area. At this point he will turn and fight you. Fight him off
and once he lies dead a scene will play.
=====================
Part 3: Rescue
=====================
Now that we have some new gear, it�s time to find a way off the island. Move
forward and climb the long branch here sticking out from the top of the cliff �
this is a viewpoint as well so synchronise it. Afterwards dive into the river
below. Use the slanted log to exit and at the end of this, dive down into the
vegetation at ground level below.
As you land, we�ll be in a stalking zone bush. Move up and silently assassinate
the guard at the edge of the zone. Now turn to the left and use the bushes to
mask your approach to the blue objective marker. Wait for the commotion to die
down when a prisoner tries to escape and then move in when the guards return
to their positions. Kill them all and another scene will play out.
At this point we are free to explore the island. Do so if you wish � there is
a collectible guide for the area in the relevant section below the main
walkthrough if you are interested.
=====================
Part 4: Exploration
=====================
When you are ready to continue, swim out to the ship, climb aboard and interact
with the wheel. We now need to pilot the ship through the watercourse here
avoiding the temptation to crash the ship on every wall, rock and sandbar in
sight. To do this, use the mini-map to help plot your course and don�t be
afraid to slow down to increase your manoeuvrability when it comes to the
tricky corners.
When you reach the open water, a cut-scene will play to end the mission.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: For completing this mission, you will earn the achievement/trophy �Heroes
Aren�t Born�.

===============================================================================
We�ll now be back in the real world in a first-person viewpoint. A woman in
front of us will check our vitals and ask you to look up and down to test your
ability to move the camera. Just look at the lights on the roof and the floor.
Now that we are done with that, follow her out the door. Continue across the
open area here and stop at the reception area. You�ll be given a tablet. This
can be used to open doors, hack computers, store data that you have found and
it even has a map of the area for you. Handy!
Continue after the woman and enter the lift and press the button �fl2. Sample
17�. As you get off the elevator a scene will play.
Once the scene has completed, follow her over to your work station and interact
with the computer to return to the animus and end the mission.

\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Tackle the pickpocket during the chase sequence. |
\ |
\ 02. Use smoke bombs to escape combat. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
This mission will begin automatically upon re-entering the Animus.
=====================
Part 1: Escort
=====================
As you leave the docks, you will need to follow Stede through the streets.
After a short amount of time, he will point out a weapon shop and give you some
money to purchase a new set of blades. Go ahead and buy them.
Upon exiting the shop, Stede will point out a church nearby. Climb to the top
of this to reach the waypoint marker, synchronise the waypoint to progress the
mission and then perform a leap of faith to return to ground level.
=====================
Part 2: Pursuit
=====================
As you land, Stede will be set upon by a pickpocket. This fellow will then
appear as a red objective marker. Chase him down and tackle him (for the
optional objective). Kill him whilst he is down, or when he gets up and attack
you. Once he is dead, loot his corpse before returning to Stede.
Follow Stede into the nearby doorway for a scene.
=====================
Part 3: Fight
=====================
We�ll now be in a bar fight. This acts as a bit of a primer or tutorial to the
game�s hand to hand combat system (which can pretty much be applied to the
melee weapons too). Follow the on-screen tutorials to practice attacking,
blocking, throwing and countering. After a few run throughs, the game will let
loose and have you fight off against 5 assailants at once. Knock them all out
and a scene will play.
=====================
Part 4: Escape
=====================
As soon as you regain control, hit the range button to drop a smoke bomb (this
will complete the other optional objective). Whilst the guards in the doorway
in front of you are disoriented, sprint past them and into the city. We need
to exit the red circle on the map and find a place to hide (haystack, bench,
crowd etc.) outside of it to lose the interest of the guards.
Once the guards have given up looking for you, the mission will be complete.

\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Hire some dancers to distract guards. |
\ |
\ 02. Stay out of combat for the duration of the mission. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
As we begin this mission, we�ll need to activate eagle vision to mark the two
guards who we need to follow. This tagging is a new feature of eagle vision in
Assassin�s Creed IV, and will allow us to see the targets through walls and
they will appear highlighted in gold even when returning to normal vision mode.
The target will start walking off. The pair of guards we are interested in
tailing will move along a set path and stop at regular intervals to peek behind
to check to see that they aren�t being followed. As such, we need to follow
from a distance, making sure to use the various haystacks, stalking zones and
groups of people to hide from them when they stop.
They will move along the waterfront and when they reach a small marketplace
will cut into an alley on the right. This entrance is guarded, so climb up to
the roof and work your way across the adjoined rooftops here whilst keeping
them in sight. There is a gunner on the high roof on the far left, so take him
out. Run across the rope here to the next building complex, clear out the
guard on the opposite side of the roof. The targets will pass through the
courtyard of the complex below and out the other side into a square.
Drop back down to ground level and tail them again. After a few moments they
will run off. Note that all though they are running, they will still make time
to stop and look behind occasionally � so keep your distance! Keep following
for a short while longer and an eavesdropping event will begin.
=====================
Part 2: Eavesdrop
=====================
We�ll now have to stay within close proximity to the guards to listen to their
conversation without being detected. To do this, use the crowds around as cover
and ensure that you stay within the green circle representing the eavesdropping
zone. The pair of guards will walk a short distance forwards and stop in front
of the gallows. Hang out in the crowd here until the conversation is complete.
=====================
Part 3: Tailing
=====================
The game will now want you to tail the captain. This guy will descend the
stairs from the gallows and walk off towards the fort to the north. Follow him
and hire the group of dancers that you walk past for 150 Reales (this will give
us a moving hiding location!). He�ll soon enter a restricted area (marked by a
red area on the mini-map). Use the dancers you hired to distract the guards
blocking the entrance, and then follow the captain inside. Sneak up on him and
pickpocket him or kill him and loot the body for a key. Exit the restricted
area.
=====================
Part 4: Infiltrate
=====================
We�ll now have to sneak into the fort. Note that to earn the second optional
task we need to get in and loot the target room without entering combat. To do
this, make your way over to the westernmost corner of the fort (denoted by a
viewpoint icon on the mini map). Hop into the haystack on the ground here and
assassinate the guard patrolling nearby from cover. Now use the handholds on
the side of the fort here to move along the wall and around the corner
Jump to the beam opposite the window ledge and follow the climbable path to the
top of the fort, but don�t climb up yet � hang from the ledge. Wait for the
pair of guards ahead to split up. Once will walk over to the ledge above you,
ledge assassinate him. The other will patrol off to the right. Wait for him to
patrol back and he will also come and stand on the ledge above you. Deal with
him as you did the first.
Climb up onto the roof and turn left. Take cover behind the corner of some of
the crates here and whistle at the guard near the cannon. Perform a corner
takedown on him. Head over to the next stack of crates near the corner and from
cover, check out the next part of the roof.
There are two stationary guards up on the ledge to your left and another
further down and fortunately they will be fixated on the sea below the fort,
so will cause you no trouble unless you bother them first. However, there is a
fourth guard that will patrol up and down this length of the roof who we will
need to take care of. Note that there are two gunners on top of the target
building as well (so make sure they aren�t looking when you make your move!).
Wait for the patrolling guard to walk towards the room and using the crates
here as cover, follow him. Take cover behind the stack of crates behind the
single guard on the ledge and perform a corner take down on the patroller as he
walks past.
Now make your way over to the glowing door and interact with it for a scene.
Afterwards, turn to the right and jump off the fort via the hole in the wall
here. Swim over to the objective marker and talk with Stede to complete the
mission.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
To begin this mission, make your way over to the Governor�s mansion in Havana
and approach the gate.
=====================
Part 1: Training
=====================
After being let into the compound, make your way forward and follow the set
path to the left up to the objective market located on the terrace. A brief
scene will play out.
Following the scene, you will now have a pair of pistols. A group of target
dummies will appear in the garden nearby. Use these dummies to test out your
new toys and get use to the pistol controls and how to use them.
Once the others stop shooting, you�ll notice one of them flashing. Go and talk
to the other one � Rogers. A �challenge� descriptor will appear over his head.
Complete the shooting challenge to complete the optional objective for doing
so. When you are ready to continue, go and speak with the other fellow.
=====================
Part 2: Training
=====================
Following the scene, you�ll now have the good old Assassin�s Creed staple � the
wrist mounted hidden blades. Walk with the two hosts through the garden until
you reach another open area where they will come to a stop. At this point they
will ask you to show them a number of different types of assassinations using
the hidden blades.
Although the two hosts request various assassination demonstrations, you can
pretty much just do as you like. Some of the options include:
> Assassinate a dummy whilst standing in a crowd.
> Assassinate a dummy from corner cover.
> Assassinate a dummy using an air assassination.
> Assassinate a dummy from a haystack.
> Assassinate a dummy whilst on the run.
Once you are done practicing, approach the hosts and speak with them to
continue.
=====================
Part 3: Escort
=====================
Again follow them along the road, through the training ground and up the stairs
to the main building. Cross the courtyard here and go down the stairs at the
end for a scene.
When you are back in control of Edward, you will be in a room with all three
men bent over a map spread on a table in the centre of the room. We have about
a minute of conversation before the mission ends, so quickly go and pickpocket
all three of the Templars here to complete the second optional objective for
the mission.
Once the scene has completed, the mission will be over.

\ |
\ 02. Use a pistol during combat. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Escort
=====================
After the introductory cinematic, you will need to follow the group of Templars
and the prisoner as they talk about important plot-related stuff. After a
minute or so, the group will be ambushed. As you will have noticed the boss
man � Laureano Torres has a health bar in the top left corner of the screen. We
need to defend him.
During the ambush, 10-12 melee attackers will appear along with a pair of
gunners on the rooftop in the distance. Fight off the ground forces as they
appear whilst trying to keep the guy we are protecting from receiving too much
damage. As the fight progresses, we�ll move slowly up the street towards the
gunners. When you reach the top of the stairs, pull out your gun and shoot both
of them (this will also complete an optional objective). Now, just defend your
party until a scene plays.
=====================
Part 2: Pursuit
=====================
Afterwards the prisoner will run off. We need to chase after him and tackle him
when you get close enough, but doing so from above will earn us an optional
objective. As such, stay as close as you can to the target but always try to
maintain a height advantage. After a short period of time you should catch up
with him and be able to tackle him.
Once you have re-captured the target, a scene will play out and the mission
will be completed.

\ |
\ 02. Stay out of combat for the duration of the mission. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
Upon starting the mission, hop the fence in front and use the stalking zone and
the sugar cane field to move up towards the buildings ahead. When you reach
the end of the first sugarcane field, when it is safe to do so, cross the
street and enter the next field. Make your way over to the right hand side of
the building ahead. From here, use the stalking zones along the wall to move up
and out of line of sight.
Work your way along the wall behind the building to the south and enter the
stalking zone bush here. Peek around the corner towards some stairs. At this
point, activate eagle vision to locate the guard with the key. The good news
is that he will patrol close to your location, so as he comes close whistle to
him to attract him and assassinate him from cover. Loot the key form his
corpse.
Cross the street into the sugarcane crop on the other side and make your way up
to the wall to the left of the stairs. Climb to the top of this and hang from
the ledge. Wait for the guard above to stop above you and use a ledge
assassination to put him out of business. Climb over the wall and enter the
stalking zone ahead.
Now use the bushes along the wall to the left to work your way towards the
objective marker. Make sure to kill any enemies on the edge of the stalking
zone with an assassination for the optional task (we need to kill three baddies
form stalking zones) if they come too close. When you can go no further along
the wall, climb the overturned cart here to access the wall above. Jump over
the ledge and immediately enter the bushes in front to avoid being spotted.
There are three guards below the tree in front of you and to the right. There
is also an open structure to the left with some crates alongside it on the side
closest to you. When all three guards are not looking (or you have whistled
them over and dealt with them one at a time), run over and use the crates to
access the roof of the building. Make your way to the end of the roof closest
to the green waypoint marker and use the path through the branches here to hop
over the next wall.
Drop down and approach the objective marker. Interact with the door here for a
scene.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
This mission begins automatically after the conclusion of the previous one.
=====================
Part 1: Escape
=====================
When you regain control, hit the button prompt that appears on-screen to free
yourself. Now it�s time to go and recover some gear.
Run over to the first doorway in front, take cover behind the frame and whistle
at the guard in the next room. Perform a corner takedown on him as he
approaches. Enter the room and knock out the guy with his back turned to you.
Now use the shelves in the centre of the room as cover to make your way over to
the other side of the room. From the edge of the shelf, peek around the corner
and whistle the guard here over to you when he is within earshot. Take him down
from the corner too.
At this point, your mate will run up and take down the two guards through the
next doorway for you. Follow him into the room and take cover behind the wall
separating the hallway to the next room. Again, lure one of the guards over to
you by whistling and take him down from behind the corner. As you do this, your
friend will eliminate the other. Now that it is all clear, approach the
objective marker to recover your gear.
After a short scene, climb the nearby ladder to reach the deck of the ship.
=====================
Part 2: Rescue
=====================
This part of the mission is essentially a whole bunch of pirate rescue
mini-missions. These can be found throughout the major settlements in the game
world following this mission. To do these, you need to approach each icon on
the mini-map without being spotted, deal with the guards at these locations and
then interact with the prisoners to free them. We need to free eighteen
prisoners in total to complete the mission and there are a total of twenty-
three available. Note that for freeing all twenty three we will complete an
optional objective.
It is really self-explanatory, use the ships riggings to approach from above
out of sight, or sneak up using barrels and crates as cover to approach each
situation, kill the captors closest to the prisoners first, kill off any guards
who become alerted and then free the captives. Make your way between each of
the first three ships and save the pirates on the decks. On the final ship,
clear out the deck of the ship and use the hatch to enter the hold of the ship.
Once inside, move up to the wall directly in front of you and peek around the
corner. Whistle the guard over when he is in range and deal with him from the
corner. Move up and eliminate the two guards in the next room. Proceed sneakily
into the room with the �Pirate Rescue� icon and double assassinate the guards
here. Free the prisoners and climb the ladder nearby.
Now that we are back on deck, a new objective marker will have appeared. Make
your way over to the ship indicated and eliminate the captain aboard. Now
interact with the wheel here for a scene.
We�ll now be in control of the ship and this sequence will introduce you to the
basics of controlling it. The coloured arrow on the mini-map indicates wind
direction and depending on the angle of your ship to the wind, you will speed
or slow down accordingly. Green indicates a good, fast position, yellow not so
much and red will slow you down considerably.
Note that there are a few small, hostile schooners around as you begin this
segment that you can sink if you wish, so let�s practice our ship combat! In
general, when you are engaged in nautical combat, the aim is to manoeuvre your
ship so that its weapons are able to face your target. The front has
front-mounted canon, the side broadside cannons and at the rear you are able to
drop explosive barrels. When you want to use one of the weapons, look in the
direction it is located, hold the aim button, you will see a white flight path
appear on screen which indicates where the cannons will fire. Enemy ships
likewise have a similar system, although their attacking angles will appear as
colours on the water with yellow and red indicating where their weapons are
targeting. If you see your ship in the range of the red water, tell your men to
brace immediately to avoid taking too much damage or immediately manoeuvre out
of the area.
Once you have had your fun with those ships, our real goal is to reach the
green waypoint marker in the distance. Sail your way over to this. On your way
you will encounter a couple of rogue waves (indicated by a wave icon on the
mini-map). We need to hit these head on to avoid taking damage from them. We�ll
also see a water spout (indicated by a yellow circular zone on the map). You
will want to avoid these at all costs as they will decimate your ship in
seconds.
When you reach the waypoint, the mission will be complete.

=====================
Now that we have our own ship, it�s time to explore the big wide world! Check
out the world map and for the mission, we need to sail over to Abaco Island,
which is conveniently marked with a green waypoint marker for us. When you
reach the island, stop the ship off the coast, dive into the water and swim
over to the shore.
We�ll now be tasked with tracking down, hunting and skinning some indigenous
fauna. Once we are ashore, we need to kill and skin two iguanas and two
ocelots. The iguanas can be found sunning themselves on the beach areas of the
island. Be sure to shoot one of them for the optional objective. Kill two of
them and then move inland to find some ocelots.
Ocelots are large cats reminiscent of panthers. They hang out near the trees
and other vegetation and move quite quickly and often in groups. They will
spook quite easily and run off if you get to close. One of our optional
objectives asks us to perform an air assassination on one of the ocelots. To
do this, find a tree or rock we can climb and wait for an ocelot to come
beneath you. Highlight it and hit the assassinate button to take it down.
Once you have skinned two of each animal, return to the ship and speak with
Adewale to complete the mission.

way up to the tavern and interact with the Adewale who is highlighted with the
exclamation mark to begin the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Rescue
=====================
The entirity of this mission is essentially a whole bunch of pirate rescue
mini-missions. As is to be expected for completion of these tasks, you need to
approach each icon on the mini-map without being spotted, deal with the guards
at these locations and then interact with the prisoners to free them. We need
to free fifteen prisoners in total to complete this segment and there are four
sets of pirate captives available on the map.
Note that there is an objective to enter combat and disarm and kill three
guards. To do this, enter combat whilst unarmed, counter an enemy attack with a
disarm and Edward will grab the bad guys weapon. Kill him with the weapon to
have it count towards the optional objective. Drop the weapon when you are done
and repeat two more times.
Once you have freed fifteen pirates, a new pirate rescue icon will appear on
the mini-map at the gallows next to the fort. Quickly run over here as quickly
as possible. As you arrive at the gallows, hide in the stalking zone to the
left by the broken half-wall. From here, pull out your gun and shoot the rope
to save the pirate captain.
Shooting the rope from the stalking zone will alert the guards here and they
will come to investigate. Use this opportunity to double assassinate a pair of
them as they arrive. Now fight off and kill the remaining guards. When they are
all done for, go over and interact with the pirate on the gallows.
Following the brief scene return to the tavern to complete the mission.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Plundering
=====================
This mission is essentially an introduction to attacking and plundering on the
high seas. What we need to do is to pull out our spyglass using the button
prompt indicated on screen and zoom in and out to identify ships in the area.
When focused on a vessel, the spyglass will give you information about the
class of ship, what threat level they pose to the Jackdaw, the sorts of weapons
they have and any cargo they might be carrying.
Go for a bit of a sail around the area and use your looking glass on all the
ships you come across until you find a schooner. Once you have located one,
pilot the Jackdaw over to it and use your weapons to bring it down to low
health in order to incapacitate it. Once it is ready to be boarded, a green
beam of light will appear from the top of it. At this point, move in close and
hold down the button prompt to initiate a boarding sequence.
Once Edward lets go of the wheel, quickly head over to the railing nearby with
the swivel gun on it. Hop on the swivel gun and use it to target enemy sailors
on the deck of the damaged ship. Kill three of them with the swivel gun to
complete one of the mission�s optional objectives. Next, clear out the
remaining enemies on the enemy ship to complete the boarding sequence. A scene
will play.
After the scene, the game will update your objective marker and ask you to
return to Salt Key. Note that to complete the other optional objective; you
will need to plunder at least 20 Rum. If the schooner that you looted initially
did not have any rum on it, you�ll need to keep sailing around the area and
using the spyglass to find a ship with some rum on board. Plunder ships until
you have completed the objective.
Following your return to Salt key, dock and enter the town. Make your way over
to the Harbormaster and purchase the intermediate hull upgrade for 1000 Reales.
This will complete the mission.
Note that the next mission will start automatically.

\ |
\ 02. Plunder at least 30 Sugar. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Plundering
=====================
As with the previous mission, this memory sequence has us plundering vessels in
the nearby area. This time though, our target is metal. Unfortunately, this
resource is not carried in great numbers by merchant vessels, but is much more
common on military ships. The problem with this area is that there are lots of
merchants and little military presence.
To have the military appear in the area, we need to plunder a few of the
merchant ships in the area to build up your notoriety (indicated by the red
crossed swords above the ship health bar). Note that there is an optional
objective to loot at least 30 Sugar, so try targeting vessels carrying sugar
during this early stage to knock the objective over as soon as possible.
After boarding and plundering 2-3 merchants, a Brig or two will show up. It
should be noted that they are much more powerful than the merchant schooners
you have been targeting and have more advanced weapons and armour. As with the
other types of ships, getting it to low health will allow you to board it. Do
so to plunder all of that metal that it is stashing.
Continue to attack and plunder brigs until you have all the metal that you
require. At this point, the game wants you to return to Salt Key. Instead of
going right away, due to attacking the military vessels you will be well and
truly notorious. As such, there should be a hunter ship in the area (these are
marked by the red crossed sword icons). Track it down, incapacitate it and
plunder it to complete the second optional objective.
Return to Salt Key. Run over and speak to the local officer indicated on the
mini-map. Bribe him for 200 Reales and this will reduce your notoriety. Handy
for future reference!
After chatting with the officer, make your way back to the Jackdaw, enter the
captain�s cabin and interact with the model ship on the desk to the right. This
acts like your own personal on-board Harbourmaster. We need to purchase the
broadside cannons ship upgrade from here to complete the mission.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
Following the previous missions, check out the world map and sail over to the
objective marker. When you arrive at the destination, hop off the boat and swim
to shore. Speak with James Kidd on Andreas Island to start the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
Once the mission has started, follow Kidd a short distance. Once the
conversation is finished, we need to go and identify an individual of interest.
If you look at the map, you will see that there is a green circle indicating
the area in which the target is located. Make your way over to this and
activate Eagle vision to find the golden target.
Once identified, the target will start walking off. As per usual, the person we
are tailing will move along a set path and stop at regular intervals to peek
behind to check to see that he isn�t being followed. As such, we need to follow
him at a distance, making sure to use the stalking zones and groups of people
to hide from him when he stops.
When he goes past the tavern, he will turn to the left and enter a restricted
area (red zone on the map) with guards about. Wait for him to speak to the two
stationary guards here and they will all walk off together. At this point, move
up to the stalking zone next to the tavern. Wait for the patrolling guard ahead
to walk over to the guard on the right by the shack. When the pair of them are
together here, quickly run past the shack and enter a stalking zone on the
other side. Stay here for a few moments and the objectives will update.
At this point, the objective marker will appear back on the Jackdaw. Quickly
sprint back to the ship and interact with the wheel before the timer runs out.
=====================
Part 2: Tailing
=====================
Now that we are back behind the wheel of the ship, we need to tail the target�s
ship. Soon after initiating the chase, the target ship enters a restricted area
on the map.
When he does this, you will notice that enemy ships in the area will have
yellow line-of-sight cones added to the mini-map and will become hostile if
they spot you in the area. As such, you will want to avoid sailing into these
unless you want to get caught up in a naval battle. Navigate using the mini-
map, following the target marker whilst weaving between islands and moving
around the hostile ships.
After a minute or two, a green objective marker will appear. Approach this and
as you arrive, dock the Jackdaw and run ashore. As you land, a timer will
appear and you will have to reach the target individual within 50 seconds.
Sprint along the beach and as you get close to him, enter the stalking zone
bush marked by the green waypoint to avoid detection.
=====================
Part 3: Eavesdrop
=====================
At this point, we need to eavesdrop on the agent�s conversation with the guard
here. As the pair walk off, hop the fence to the right and using the sugarcane
field as cover, follow them over to the building ahead. As they pass this, they
will split up. Stick with the agent as he approaches the base of the guard
tower.
After a short chat, he will continue along the road until he reaches a guard
next to an alarm bell. Keep moving between stalking zones, and be vigilant in
checking your mini-map to make sure the gunman in the tower is not looking your
way when you do. Once he is done with the guard at the bell, continue along the
road after him until he stops in front of a warehouse. This will end the
eavesdrop sequence.
=====================
Part 4: Infiltrate
=====================
Now we need to locate the warehouse key. Both times I complete this mission,
the guard holding the key was located to the southwest of the warehouse. To get
there, backtrack to the guard at the alarm bell and look around the corner to
the right after the building nearby with eagle vision active to spot the key
bearer. This should mark him on the mini-map and HUD for you.
Now that we can find him easily whenever we like, let�s do that optional
objective that wants us to disable two alarm bells. Whilst we are here anyway,
kill the guard and sabotage the bell whilst the shooter in the tower is not
looking. Now return to the warehouse, climb up when it is safe to do so and
take down the shooter on the roof. Make your way to the edge of the roof
closest to the water and if you peek over the edge you should see a second
alarm bell. Perform an air assassination on the guard here and sabotage the
bell to complete the optional objective.
If you wait long enough, the guard with the warehouse key will enter the area
around the warehouse. Use the stalking zone to sneak up on him and then double
assassinate the key holder and his guard. Loot the key from the body, return to
the warehouse and open the door to complete the mission.

Following the previous missions, check out the world map and sail over to the
objective marker at the Salt Lagoon. When you arrive at the destination, you
should enter Edward�s cabin and upgrade the Jackdaw with the �Heavy shot� (we
need it for an optional objective during this mission). Now when you are ready,
hop off the boat and swim to shore. Speak with the pirates around the campfire
to start the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Identify
=====================
After the introductory cinematic return to the Jackdaw and interact with the
wheel to start sailing. If you look at the map, you will see that there is a
green circle indicating the area in which the target is located. Cruise all
the way over to this area and use your spyglass to locate the ship named �El
Arca Del Maestro�. It is located close to the northern end of the green zone
(At co-ordinates 864,698). As the green zone is located within a restricted
area, make sure that you steer clear of the cones of visions of enemy ships as
you go!
When you have identified the ship, you will notice that it has a very large
field of view, stay out of this! It is a very powerful ship and it will be able
to level your ship in no time. Once you have it in sight, we need to get around
behind it and follow it slowly whilst staying out of its yellow field of
vision. Occasionally, other ships will enter this safe area, so make sure you
manoeuvre around them as necessary.
=====================
Part 1: Naval Battle
=====================
Continue to follow the large ship until you are joined by some allies. After a
brief encounter, eight smaller Spanish ships will show up to the east. At this
point, ignore the galleon and sail out to meet them. During this fight, you
will have the opportunity to achieve the two optional objectives � sinking two
ships with a single broadside attack and destroy two ships with the heavy shot.
They are all fairly weak ships, so you shouldn�t have too much trouble, even
though you are outnumbered.
Once all of the ships have been destroyed, a scene will play to end the

=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
After the introduction, dive into the water and swim over to the ruin on the
shore nearby. Use the various handholds and platforms to climb all the way to
the top.
Now that we are up, find the dirt trail leading from the top of the ruins
inland. Follow this around the corner and sneak up and assassinate the guard
patrolling along the path here. When you reach the end of the path, drop down
to the area below and sneak up on and double assassinate the pair of guards
nearby on the mini-map.
Continue towards the green objective marker. When you reach the ruined half-
wall, wait for the guard patrolling the path by it to turn away and sneak up
and dispatch him. Keep going down the path until you reach the green waypoint
killing a further two guards patrolling the path as you go.
After you reach the green marker, follow the Cliffside path to the right. Hop
over the gap and use the rope bridge to climb up the other side. Follow the
linear path here down a short way until you come across some enemy guards
ahead.
There will be two standing on the path in front, a third some distance away in
a stationary position and a fourth patrolling back and forwards between the
two positions. Take them all out from stalking zones, (starting with the
patroller to make things easier) or sneak by them. Continue past the thatch
house in the centre of the path and enter the stalking zone bushes to the
right.
Ahead there is a gunman located on a platform in the tree in the centre of this
area and a brute and guard at ground level. Again, take out or sneak past the
ground-based enemies whilst the gunman in the centre is looking away from you.
A little further along the path is another pair of regular guards. Do what you
wish with them. Keep following the path until you reach a small village.
=====================
Part 2: Assassinate
=====================
Once you arrive at the village, enter the stalking zone bush near the exit. In
the distance you will see a ship docked. This is where our target is located.
Note that from this point on we are able to achieve the mission�s two optional
objectives � stay out of combat and to perform an air assassination on the
target. Wait for the guards ahead to look away and then run over to the bush to
the left of the building directly in front of the path.
When it is clear to do so, make a run for the nearest sugarcane field. Whistle
at the guy standing on the side of the field closest to the water and
assassinate him from cover when he comes to investigate. Deal with the
patroller here to the south as well if you wish to do so. Make your way to the
far end of the field. A guard patrols from here down to the buildings below.
Wait for him to start down and follow him. Duck into the stalking zone bushes
to the left of the small dirt road. Hang out here for a moment.
At this point, wait until no guards are looking your way and make your way over
to and follow the cliff wall to the west all the way until you reach the water.
At this point, you�ll be fairly close to the back end of the ship. Swim out and
around the opposite side of the ship from the village, using the stealth swim
option if you get spotted.
Climb up the side of the ship near the bow and when you reach the top rail,
shimmy around and ledge assassinate the guard looking out from the back of the
ship. From your position on the ledge here, activate eagle vision to identify
the target.
Maintain your position here for a little longer, two regulars will patrol
across the back of the ship and then descend the stairs to the main deck. Your
assassination target will do the same. When all three have passed (and no-one
is looking your way) you have a brief window to move. Hop over the railing and
climb the mast until you reach the first cross beam. Now wait here until the
target makes another lap. When he passes below you, hit the attack button to
air assassinate him to complete the optional objective and the mission.

Part 1: Exploration
=====================
Have Edward follow Kidd away from the beach and along the dirt path we used in
the previous mission. Eventually he will lead you to an interesting looking,
glowing stone structure � this is a Mayan Stelae, a type of collectible that
will be available after this mission. As you arrive at the statue a scene will
play.
After the scene, activate eagle vision when prompted and then climb to the very
top of the statue. Once on top, a mini-game will begin. We will need to align
glowing lines and rings with objects in the environment. Once you have arranged
the lines in the correct locations, the game will take you out of eagle vision
and an artefact location will be displayed.
In this case, the circle needs to be placed on the tree stump and the two
squares aligned on top of the two square pillars.
Once you have done it correctly, the game will give you a new waypoint marker.
Go over and check it out and dig on the spot with the button prompt to find an
artefact. After another brief conversation, the game will take you to the world
map screen to show you the locations of all the other Mayan Stelae. When you
are ready exit the menu.
Now we need to follow Kidd again. Continue through the jungle until he leads
you into a man-made area. Climb the staircase in here to the top. A scene will
play. At this time, you will find some master assassin gear sitting behind a
series of locks on the wall; we already have the key to one of the locks. To
find the other four keys (and that sweet looking armour), we need to complete
the Templar Hunt side-missions: Opia Apito, Rhona Dinsmore, Anto and Vance
Travers. See the side-mission section of the guide for additional details.
After another brief conversation, the game will take you to the world map
screen to show you the locations of all the other Templar Hunt mission
locations. When you are ready exit the menu.
Exit the building and return to the docks. Check out the waypoint for a scene
to end the mission.

Following the previous mission, check out the world map and sail over to the
objective marker at the Tulum. When you arrive at the destination, the mission
will begin.
Note that this is a stealth-based mission and if you are detected, you will
desynchronise and have to start from the previous checkpoint again.
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
When we regain control, look behind the rock on the right for a chest (1/4).
Now climb the ruin to the left using the crack in the wall to reach the top. At
this point, make sure you select unarmed as your weapon as we are not allowed
to kill anybody during this mission.
Follow the top of the cliff to the left and enter the stalking zone bushes.
Wait for the pair of assassins to separate here and whistle one over and knock
them out. Repeat when the second assassin patrols back. Climb the viewpoint
here, synchronise and dive into the ocean (you should grab an Animus Fragment
on the way down). Swim down the coast to the south until you see the natural
rock arch on the coast.
Hop out here and knock out the enemy patrolling back and forth. Loot the
treasure chest (2/4) here. Head north from here and enter the stalking bush.
Wait for the nearby bad guys to turn away and run up the nearby hill on the
left to reach the waypoint marker. Continue along the set route until you reach
the next waypoint a little further along.
Wait for the enemy on the left to start walking away and climb the half wall
in front and hop into the tree. Follow the path along the tree branches here
to reach the large stone pillar to the north (there is an easy to spot animus
fragment on it). Jump down to the stalking zone on top of the structure here.
Again use the half wall here to access the tree in front and follow the
branches over to the left. Drop down when you reach the cliff face and run over
to the objective marker nearby. Quickly run down the path and around the
corner.
We�ll exit into another open area. Move up and hide in the stalking zone in
front of the exit. Wait for the assassin in front to patrol to the left and
then back again. As she goes back, quickly run around the corner to the left,
go up the slope and climb the wall. Duck into the bushes here.
Follow the ledge to the right and hide in the next stalking zone. Wait for the
patrolling assassin to walk off and knock out the guy with his back to you at
the edge of the bushes. When the patroller returns, whistle to have him come
over and knock him out too. Move up to the next stalking zone and knock out
the assassin here too. Just beyond this set of bushes, you will find a chest
to loot (3/4).
Now from the previous stalking zone bushes, work your way to the east. Wait
for the assassin on the ledge ahead to patrol to the right and when she does,
run up and hide in the bushes behind her. Knock her out.
From here look to the east. Wait for the assassin on the next platform on the
left to walk to the right. At this point, jump down to the half wall below,
turn left and jump across and up to the ledge. Sprint over and enter the
stalking bush on your right. Give each of the two assassins here a turn at
being whistled at from the bushes and being knocked out. Now look towards the
objective marker across the gap in front. There is a gunner on this platform
that will see you quite easily if you make a move whilst he is looking. As soon
as he turns away, jump across the rooftops and up onto the platform and knock
him out.
Use the stalking zones to the right of the next set of stairs to circumvent
the enemies at the top and work your way over to the objective marker in front
of the temple in front. Before approaching our goal, run past the temple
entrance here to the left to find another ruin area. To the right of the large
structure here is a treasure chest (4/4) loot this to complete the optional
objective.
Now return to the objective marker and speak with Kidd here and a scene will
play to end the mission.

Part 1: Exploration
=====================
Now that we are inside the temple, have Edward follow Kidd along the set route
until you reach a room where a bridge collapses. Turn to the left and use the
handholds on the wall here to traverse the gap to the far side and swing up
onto the glowing statue head on the wall to open the door below.
Drop down and continue through the door. Follow in Kidd�s footsteps and
handholds as you are lead deeper into the temple. When you reach the large
water pool, dive down into it. Dive under the water and follow Kidd through the
underwater tunnels, being sure to surface at the same time and in the same
places as he does. When you reach the end, surface and a waypoint marker will
be added in the distance.
Make your way across the rocks in the water here and climb the ruin until you
reach the top. Make your way over to the temple in the distance and take the
stairs up to the platform at the top. Here we�ll find a puzzle that we need to
solve.
Essentially there is a rotating circle on the floor made up of three sections
of differing colours. There is also three coloured blocks. The lever in the
centre of the room will rotate the floor, whilst the mechanisms on either side
of the room can pick blocks up or set them down by using the counter weighted
blocks mounted on the walls.
To solve it, we need to place the coloured cubes onto the section of the
circular tiles that matches. To do this, use the following steps:
> Rotate right once.
> Use the left counterweight to raise the red block.
> Rotate right once.
> Use the right counterweight to lower the green block.
> Rotate left once.
> Use the right counterweight to lift the blue block.
> Rotate left once.
> Use the right counterweight to lower the blue block.
> Use the left counterweight to lower the red block.
Upon solving the puzzle, a scene will play and the mission will be complete.

fire two different types of darts. Sleep darts will put enemies to sleep for a
short amount of time, whilst berserk darts will cause an afflicted enemy to
attack anyone (friend or foe) in their immediate area. We�ll be using these
quite a bit over the course of the mission and both optional objectives are
tied into using it (use sleep darts on eight guards and use berserk darts on
two).
This mission is essentially a whole bunch of pirate rescue mini-missions that
you find in the major settlements. You need to approach each load of casualties
without being spotted (sleep darts are great for this), deal with the guards
and interact with the prisoners to free them. We need to free fourteen
prisoners in total to complete the mission and there quite a few more than
that.
It is really self-explanatory, use heights or stalking zones to approach each
situation, use sleep darts to deal with any gunners and any other guards that
you feel you need to, kill the captors and free the captives. Rinse and repeat.
You can even go into conflict mode next to hostages, as long as you deal with
the guards pointing their guns at them quickly.
Once you have freed fourteen of the prisoners, a scene will play to end the
mission and the memory sequence.

Apologies�.

===============================================================================
Before proceeding with this sequence's missions, you are going to want to
upgrade the Jackdaw again. Whilst it is possible to do the next few missions
without doing so, grabbing a couple of upgrades at this point will make things
a little easier, and allow us to earn an optional objective on an upcoming
mission.
I'd recommend purchasing at least the following upgrades:
> Hull Armour level 2
> Mortars level 1

\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Use a mortar attack to damage the fort's defences. |
\ |
\ 02. Use a running assassination to kill the fort's captain. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Naval Battle
=====================
The objective of this mission is to destroy the armed forts defences, before
entering the fort and taking out the leaders. To begin with we need to crack
open the fort itself.
The fort�s defences consist of two cannon towers overlooking the water, each
marked with a red objective marker. Hitting them with attacks will display a
health bar so that you can track how much damage you have caused. In addition
to the towers, the fort will launch mortars into the ocean in a bid to hit you.
Remember that mortars and enemy attacks will appear as colours on the water
with yellow and red indicating where their weapons are targeting. If you see
your ship in the range of the red water, tell your men to brace immediately to
avoid taking too much damage or immediately manoeuvre out of the area.
To take down the fort, use a mortar if you have one to damage the defences for
the optional objective. Afterwards, I�d recommend sailing back and forth in
front of the fort, using your broadside attacks and heavy shots to deal damage
over a larger area. Then use the swivel gun to pop the weak spots when they
become visible.
Once all of the defences have been destroyed, a green waypoint marker will
appear next to the fort allowing you to dock.
=====================
Part 2: Assassinate
=====================
Climb the stairs until you reach the blocked gate. Climb the broken wall to
the right of the gate and drop down the other side. Clear out the immediate
area of enemies and climb the makeshift ramp on the right of the area. Continue
through the archway here into another small courtyard. Quickly sprint over and
kill the officer here with a running assassination for the second optional
objective.
Once the officer is down, scale the building at the back of the courtyard until
you reach the roof. Run over and enter the door marked with the green
objective marker. This will liberate the fort and complete the mission.

=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
From the start of the mission we�ll be tailing a pair of targets. Immediately
throw on eagle vision and tag them to make tracking them a little easier.
Follow them around the back of the market stalls and hide in the crowd until
they climb the stairs. Hop up the wall to the left of the stairway, cruise
down the grass strip to the left of the house and enter cover in the bush next
to the large stone arches in the centre of the square.
Follow them down the stairs and take cover behind the corner on the building
to the left of the road when they stop for a moment. When they move on, use
the rope lift on the side of the building they were standing next to reach the
roof. Kill the gunner here and follow the targets using the treetop path
ahead. When you reach the far roof, kill the gunner here as well. When they go
through a fenced area with guards blocking the entrance, drop down to ground
level and work your way along the outside of the fence and around the corner.
Hide in the stalking bushes on the opposite side of the dirt road here and
follow them until they come to a stop again.
After a brief exchange, the targets will walk back past our current location
and enter a restricted area with guards blocking the entrance. Climb the
ladder to the right to access the rooftop here. From this location you can
watch them for a short while without losing them. Continue along the rooftops,
following the targets. Kill the gunner on top of the third building. Leap to
the building across the street from here and again when the targets take a
right turn.
You�ll end up on the roof of a building in front of the guarded gate to a
farm-like area. The targets will come to a stop in the centre of this. We
need to eavesdrop on them, so perform a leap of faith down into the haystack
below and hop through the gap in the fence to start.
=====================
Part 2: Eavesdrop
=====================
After going through the gap in the fence, enter the stalking bush. As you enter
the fence, the targets will start walking off. When it is safe to do so, move
up to the haystack nearby and climb inside. Assassinate the guy beside it. Next
run up between the buildings where the targets went and get into the bush here.
Assassinate the guard in front.
Follow them around to the right and when they take the next left turn, wait a
few moments and then enter the door of the building on the corner to the left
of the road they just turned down. This will put you up in a tree on the far
side. Hop across the next few buildings until you reach the end of the block
just before the cemetery area. At this point, turn to the right, run across
the rope and assassinate the shooter on the roof here. By this point, the
targets will have moved into the cemetery. Use the wooden beam protruding from
the roof here to dive into the haystack on the other side of the fence.
Assassinate the guard in front, then hop out and work your way from stalking
bush to stalking bush, climbing the hill after the targets when no one is
looking. Kill any guards that hang out near your hiding spots. When they reach
the top of the hill the conversation will end.
=====================
Part 3: Fight
=====================
As soon as the scene ends, you will be in a combat situation. It is at this
time that you are able to earn the second optional objective. We need to kill
five guards whilst they are temporarily stunned by smoke bombs. As such, equip
them, drop them and kill the guards when they drop their guard. Easy! Keep
fighting until you have eliminated all of the guards.
=====================
Part 4: Pursuit
=====================
Upon the conclusion of the fight, Kidd will run off. Our new goal is to stop
him. To do this, follow directly behind him, going where he goes � you�ll get
stunned by smoke bombs a couple of times, but eventually you will catch up to
him again. When you are in range, tackle him to end the mission.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
We�ll start on top of a giant windmill overlooking an estate and its grounds.
Perform a leap of faith down to the haystack below. Our first objective is to
disable the three alarm bells in the fields in front of the residence at the
far end.
Note that during this first section, alerting and entering combat with guards
is possible and you will not fail the mission. As such it is entirely possible
to enter the area, murder everyone in sight and then go and disable the alarm
bells. It is just a little easier with the stealthy approach. As such, let�s
do it that way.
Make your way up the hill nearby and approach the closest bell. Hop the fence
and enter the sugarcane field here. From the cover of the field, whistle to
and assassinate from the cover of the field the guards patrolling down the left
and right of the field and a third guard who patrols to and from the bell. Pull
out your blowpipe and equip the berserk darts. Look to the right of the bell
for a lit torch close by, you should see a brute patrolling back and forth who
will stop close to this on his rounds. Hit him with a berserk dart. You�ll also
want to use a sleep dart on the gunner in the watch tower to the left.
Whilst the brute is under the influence of the dart, enemies will be drawn to
him. Use this as a distraction to run up and sabotage the alarm bell. Quickly
sneak over and hide in the cane field beneath the watchtower. Lure any enemies
nearby to you with whistles and subdue them quietly. Now we are going to work
our way over to the bell to the west.
Look at your mini-map and when no guards are looking, run across the street to
the left of the guard tower. Enter one of the bushes here. From this location,
you should be able to see the second alarm bell in the centre of an open area
ahead. We want to reach the bush next to the wall of the building closest to
the alarm bell. Sneak over and hop into this when it is safe to do so.
Assassinate the guy just in front of the bush. Now whistle to the guard
patrolling past on the dirt road to the right, and the other who patrols to and
from the bell. Assassinate them both.
Now as before, hit the guard up in the tower to the left with a sleep dart and
then hit another in the area with a berserk dart. Use the distraction to
disable the alarm bell. Afterwards continue to the west until you reach a
stream. Work your way up the stream using the bushes as cover until you reach
the guard tower where we just put the guard to sleep previously. Follow the
stream to the right, still using the stalking zone bushes as cover until you
get to the bridge.
Cross the stream to the left of the bridge to avoid detection, turn right when
you reach the opposite bank and quickly run over to the bush near the end of
the bridge. Form here we should be able to spot the final alarm bell. Look at
the mini-map and when no guards are looking, hop the fence and enter the sugar
cane field. Proceed to the end of the field closest to the bell and use your
whistle to attract any enemies close to the field over to you.
From the safety of the field, pull out your blowpipe again and select your
berserker darts. See the hay cart by the bell? There is a brute leaning up
against it on the opposite side from where we are. Fortunately we can shoot
him in the leg visible below the cart. Doing so will draw in enemies as per
usual. During the commotion run over and sabotage the bell.
Now that all three bells are out of commission, sneak back to the bridge we
passed a few moments ago. Now make your way up to the objective marker nearby
for a scene.
=====================
Part 2: Assassinate
=====================
Enter the now open gate and hide in the shrubs just inside. Wait for the brute
to climb down the stairs and walk off to the left (if you haven�t used your
berserker darts on two brutes yet, here�s an opportunity to do so). Either wait
for the aforementioned brute to walk off and for the enemies on the upper path
of the building ahead to patrol away from the front of the building and then
quickly run over and climb to the roof, or berserk dart the brute and let him
distract the guards whilst you scale the building.
When you reach the roof, sneak over and take out the gunners on both the left
and the right hand sides. Now that it is relatively safe, look down to the
back yard. Note the stone gazebo in the centre. Our target is in here.
From the left hand side of the roof, dive down into the haystack below. Use the
stalking zone in front of this to work your way over to the gazebo. Make your
way inside and assassinate him for a scene.
Afterwards we need to escape the area. Leave the restricted zone on the map,
break line of sight with your pursuers and get into a hiding spot to become
anonymous. When this has happened, make your way over to the green waypoint
marker to complete the mission.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the introduction scene, we�ll need to follow Blackbeard and co. through
the streets of Nassau whilst they discuss a plan of attack. After a couple of
minutes, you�ll be free to head off.
To begin the next segment of the mission however we�ll need to head to either
Edward�s cabin on the jackdaw or to a Harbormaster and purchase the �Diving
Bell� upgrade. This will allow us to explore underwater shipwrecks. The diving
bell costs 5000 Reales, so if you do not have enough, some options to help earn
some would include: selling any Sugar and Rum you have previously plundered,
find and open some treasure chests, attack the easy forts and board a couple
more ships until you have enough to purchase it.
Once the bell has been purchased, the first mission�s start marker will appear.

Approach Blackbeard�s ship � The Queen Anne�s Revenge in the ocean by the San
Ignatio shipwreck just to the east of the Dry Tortuga fort to begin the
sequence. Once the scene to start the mission is done, sail to the San Ignatio
Wreck, dock and use the diving bell to reach the seabed below.
=====================
Part 1: Exploration
=====================
This mission is an introduction to diving at shipwrecks and upon its
completion, we will be able to approach, dive and explore all of the shipwrecks
located across the Caribbean. Whilst we are underwater, we have an air meter
in the centre of the screen to represent remaining air supplies. If you look at
the mini-map, you should also be able to make out small, balloon-shaped icons.
These are barrels that we can approach to replenish our oxygen level.
There are four chests in the starting area and we�ll have to loot three of them
during this mission to fulfil the requirements for one of the optional
objectives. As such, let�s get it over with ASAP! There is one just to the
north of where the bell lands on the sea bed, another just behind the jellyfish
in the remnants of part of the ship to the northwest of the first air barrel
and another just to the north of this inside another section of the ship�s
hull.
When you have grabbed three of the chests, approach the glowing hatch on the
main deck of the ship and interact with it to access the inside of the ship.
Loot the chest located inside.
Following the scene, make your way through the newly formed tunnel until you
reach the air pocket. Surface to replenish your air supply. Afterwards,
continue through the tunnel. You�ll reach a cave with a strong current that
will interrupt your swimming and propel you all over the place. At this point,
try not to fight it too much, but work your way towards the northern side of
the area. Find the small exit leading outside.
As you leave the indoor area, use the air barrel in front to resupply your
oxygen. We�ll now see sharks about. Note that there is an optional objective
at this point to complete the mission without being attacked by one of the
sharks. To do this, we can use the seaweed on the sea floor as a stalking zone
and the various wrecks about as hiding places to avoid detection.
Enter the wreck just to your right. Inside you�ll find an Animus Fragment.
Move through to the back end of this. Outside you should spot another chest
directly in front. Ignore this one for the moment and swim to the right to
find another wreck. On a rock platform in front of it just behind the seaweed
you�ll find a chest. Open this and return to the chest we ignored a few moments
ago and open that too.
As we were swimming back to the ignored chest, you will have spotted the
Animus fragment in the distance. Swim over to grab that and duck into the
wreck to its left to find the final chest in the area (this contains a Plan �
Elite Hull Upgrade for the jackdaw).
Now we�ll be quite low on health, so exit the wreck and head for the diving
bell marked with the green objective marker. When you arrive at the bell,
interact with it for a scene to complete the mission.

Before proceeding with this mission, you are going to want to upgrade the
Jackdaw again. Whilst it is possible to do the next few missions without doing
so, upgrading at this point will make things much easier, and a little less
frustrating. As this is the case, you should definitely look at having at
least the following upgrades:
> Hull Armour Level 2
> Broadside Cannons Level 2
> Round Shot Strength Level 2
> Swivel Strength Level 2
When you are ready to proceed, sail over to the objective marker on the world
map to the south of Nassau. Approach the marker for a scene to start the
mission.
=====================
Part 1: Investigate
=====================
The first part of the mission asks us to track down and locate Blackbeard�s
ship. If you look at the map, you will see that there is a green circle
indicating the area in which it is located. As with the previous mission like
this, the green zone is located within a restricted area, so ensure that you
steer clear of the cones of visions of enemy ships as you go! Whilst you can
attack and board ships here if you please, doing so will make things much more
difficult than they need to be as if you attack a single ship, more will show
up in support to attack you.
Navigate all the way over to the green zone and use your spyglass to locate
the ship named �The Queen Anne�s Revenge�. It is located in the south-eastern
portion of the green zone docked off Mariguana Island (map co-ordinates
880,544). Note that there is an optional objective to rescue five survivors
from the water, so keep an eye out for the icons on the mini-map and grab them
when you see them.
When you have identified the ship, you will see that it is docked. Slow down
and hop off the ship here and swim to shore.
=====================
Part 2: Defend
=====================
Help Blackbeard and his crew defeat the enemy soldiers. As soon as you can
during the fighting, make sure that you drop a smoke bomb and kill three guards
whilst they are incapacitated by the smoke bombs effect. This will complete the
second optional objective for the mission. Now just clear the beach out of any
remaining bad guys.
Once the island is clear, a man-o-war ship will appear in the waters offshore.
Follow Blackbeard and his crew onto the Queen Anne�s Revenge, make your way up
to the wheel and interact with it to take control of the ship.
=====================
Part 3: Naval Battle
=====================
Head over and attack the man-o-war. The enemy vessel is equipped with mortars
and has some very powerful triple firing heavy-shot cannons on its broadside,
so you will want to steer around the incoming mortar shells whilst avoiding
spending too much time with its sides facing you. Fortunately, Blackbeard�s
ship has some powerful broadside cannons as well, so use these to good effect
as you whittle down the man-o-war�s health. When its health is low enough to
board, a scene will play.
=====================
Part 4: Assassinate
=====================
When you regain control, you will be up in the rigging of Blackbeard�s ship.
Ahead you will see a gunner on the mast of the other ship. Quickly pull out
your gun/sleeping darts and shoot him. Hop across to the other ship�s boom to
the right of your platform and run across it to reach the deck of the enemy
ship. By the time you arrive, the captain of the ship (marked with the red
objective marker) should be on the main deck. From the boom we are on, it
should be easy enough to highlight him and perform an air assassination. If
not, drop down and take him out.
Either way, once the captain is dead, the mission will be complete.

=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
As we begin the mission, we�ll need to follow the gunboat in the water ahead.
We need to stay far enough back that we remain out of its yellow field of
vision. During this section, we will also have to move slowly as there are a
lot of small islands and rocks about and we need to avoid them whilst tailing
the ship. Additionally, there will be watchtowers, marked by green circles on
the map. Again, we will want to steer clear of these as we move through the
bayou.
Sail to the left of the first tower and then sail follow the water around to
the right. We�ll encounter another watch tower. Again, move to the left of this
and hug the land as you move up. Ensure that you slow right down to squeeze
through the small gap between the shore and the far end of the towers� field of
vision. Continue to follow the left hand shore past the next watchtower. As you
approach the fourth watch tower, Edward will be prompted to hop out of the
ship.
Jump across to the buildings nearby and head left. Work your way across the
platforms and poles here until you reach the structure with the alarm bell.
Climb to the top ledge of this ahead. From here, look below and dive into the
haystack.
Assassinate the first man next to the haystack and wait for a few moments.There
is a guard who will cut laps around the area. When he approaches the haystack,
whistle to draw him over and assassinate him from hiding as well. Now approach
the two stacks of crates/barrels set out in lines either side of the alarm
bell. Look at the mini-map and when no guards are looking, run between them
and sabotage the bell. Quickly run back out from the bell area again to avoid
detection.
You�ll notice that the Jackdaw has moved up, so head over and jump back onto
your ship again. Get back behind the wheel.
As soon as you are back in control of the ship, sail it down the first entrance
that you see on your right. Follow the river until you enter the yellow zone on
the mini-map. At this point the Jackdaw will let Edward out again. That�s
right - It�s time to tail the gunboat on foot.
=====================
Part 2: Tailing
=====================
Note that in addition to following the boat on foot at this point, this is also
the only sequence during the mission in which we are able to complete the two
optional objectives. These are to use sleep darts on three crocodiles, and to
skin a crocodile. So be sure to have your blowpipe handy during the next little
bit.
When you are ready to get started, follow the dock to the end and the game will
show you the gunboat in the distance. When the camera pans back to Edward, turn
to the right and go down the small wooden walkway here. There is a crocodile in
the water at this point, so hit it with a sleep dart and skin it. Continue
across the water and enter the broken hull of the wrecked ship here. Climb the
back wall and shimmy across to the right.
When you reach the hole in the hull, hop up on the beam and use the branch
outside the ship here to swing over to the log on the water. At this point,
there are another two crocodiles in the water. Hit both of them with sleeping
darts to complete the optional objectives. Hop to the far side of the river
and enter the stalking zone bushes here.
You�ll see a guard with his back to you ahead (and another a little further
on). To the left of him, resting against a wall is a stack of crates. Run over
and climb these and up to a ledge above them. Hop across the beams to the left.
Exit via the stone archway here and wait a moment. Once the rowboat has passed,
hop across the stone pillar ahead to reach the stone wall.
Climb to the top of this and follow it to the end. Jump to the building ahead.
Don�t climb up, instead whilst hanging from the ledge, shimmy all the way to
the right. Climb up when you can go no further and jump to the wooden pillar
ahead. Work your way across the beams and chandelier until you reach the beams
on the far wall. Shimmy right again and jump through the gap. Drop down to the
ground below.
Move up towards the alarm bell and hide in one of the bushes nearby, note the
stack of crates to the right leading to an upper platform, we�ll use those in
a second. The rowboat will make a brief stop at the guard post here. Wait until
the guard gets taken by the crocodile and use the opportunity to run up and
climb the crates to the next level.
Again wait for the boat to be on its way and then jump over to the stone wall.
Use the branches here to reach the far bank of the river. As you land, enter
the stalking zone bushes and wait. The rowboat should dock up ahead and the
inhabitants will get out. We�ll now have to eavesdrop on their conversation.
=====================
Part 3: Eavesdrop
=====================
Run over to the stone wall closest to the riverbank on your right. As you
approach, the eavesdropping sequence will begin. Wait for the two guys to walk
past the gap between the two walls here and duck in after them. Follow behind
them at a distance, using the crates as cover. When they reach the end of the
docks, a scene will play.
=====================
Part 4: Pursuit
=====================
Afterwards, the target will run off. Follow him along the set path along the
docks here. Run up the ramp to the left of the first gate, slide down the ramp
and use the posts in the water to return to the chase. After returning to land,
when you see the next group of guards blocking the path, run up the ram to the
right. This will put you above the target over the marketplace. Catch up with
him here and either target and air assassinate him from above or shoot him with
your pistol (the second option is much easier) to end the chase.

After the previous mission, we�ll be kicked out of the animus for another dose
of �real world� action. Follow the woman over to the elevator and hit the �fl.
15 �CCO� button to ride it up to the top level. Upon exiting the elevator, the
woman will get called into the office by herself, leaving us alone to twiddle
our thumbs. Fortunately that voice over the radio has some plans for us.
To the right of the reception desk is an open doorway. Go through this and
follow the hallway to the end. Go down the stairs and approach the door. You�ll
now be granted Level 2 security clearance. When you are able, go inside and
then open the Level 2 door just to the right.
Approach the security console to try out a hacking mini game. This mini-game
features a number at the top of the page and three sets of four numbers at the
bottom of the screen. We essentially need to select numbers from each of the
four groups at the bottom, so that when multiplied together in order, they
equal the number at the top of the page.
To solve this puzzle use the following steps:
> Set the first group of numbers to �5�.
> Set the second group of numbers to �2�.
> Set the third group of numbers to �7�.
This will complete the security measure. Now all we need to do is sit back and
watch the surveillance footage for a few moments. Afterwards exit the security
camera room.
Now follow the hallway all the way to the end until you reach an open window.
Wait here for a few moments and a window washing platform will park itself
here. Hop aboard and ride it up to the platform above. Exit to the left and
enter Olivier�s office. Approach his computer and interact with it for another
hacking mini-game.
This hacking sequence involves piloting a little blue dot across the moving
lines to the right to reach the far side. The blue dot can only move between
grey or white lines as it traverses the grid. Touching red lines will destroy
the dot and you will have to begin again. There are no real hints or tips to
accompany this one, just be patient and try not to rush. Eventually you�ll be
able to get it across to complete the hack.
After the hack, wait for the receptionist to leave her post and then exit the

Head over and chat with the woman amongst the crowd of citizens gathered by
the beach to start the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
After the scene, look over towards the waypoint markers and activate eagle
vision to tag them. Now climb up the building next to your current position and
follow the targets as they move up the street from the rooftops. Kill the
gunner on the raised roof here and then jump down into the open square at the
end of the street. Hop into the well in the centre of the area.
After a brief stop, the group, which is now a little larger will set off again.
As to be expected, the targets will move along a set path and stop at regular
intervals to peek behind to check to see that they aren�t being followed. As
such, we need to follow from a distance, using either the rooftops about or
making sure to use the various haystacks, stalking zones and groups of people
to hide from them when they stop.
They will work their way from the tavern up to the fort and will stop outside
the door by the gallows (where we shot the rope to save the pirate earlier).
After a few moments, they will enter the fort and close the door. It�s time to
sneak inside!
=====================
Part 2: Infiltrate
=====================
When our objectives are updates, we�ll now be tasked with infiltrating the
fort. Run over to the gallows and look behind them. There is a tree branch
conveniently placed parallel to the wall of the fort. Follow the path along the
wall using the small ledges and trees until you can go no further. At this
point, you should be able to climb the wall.
Follow the fairly obvious climbing path up the side of the fort until you reach
a window-like ledge. There is a guard inside. Wait until he is close to you
and perform a ledge assassination on him (we need three of these for the
optional objective). Step on the small wooden beam protruding from this ledge
and use it to jump to the next. From here, climb the wall again until you reach
the top. Stay hanging from the edge for the moment. A guard should patrol over
and stop directly above you. Make sure you ledge assassinate him as well. Now
rather than climbing up, shimmy around the edge of the roof to the left. Wait
for the other guard up here to patrol above you and perform a ledge takedown
on him as well. This should complete your first optional objective.
Climb up onto the guard tower here. At this point, a green waypoint marker
should appear. That is our next target. Find the crumbling wall at the top of
the tower here and walk over to it. At the base of the wall is a pair of
soldiers. Drop down and double assassinate them. Head down the stairs here and
as you reach the bottom, dive into the haystack just below. Assassinate the guy
leaning on this.
From the haystack have a quick look around. There is a gunner on the roof
directly above the objective marker, and another to your left on the wall above
the alarm bell. We�ll need to put them to sleep when we make our move in a
moment. Wait for the pair of patrolling guards to move past the hay stack to
the right. Once they have moved on, hop out and use a sleep dart on the gunner
to the left. Run over and sabotage the bell 9this will complete the second
optional objective). Now return to the haystack and enter the stalking zone
bush between it and the objective marker.
Now that we are safe, put the guard on the roof above the waypoint marker to
sleep with a sleep dart. When it is clear, run over and loot the map indicated
by the green marker to complete the mission.

\ |
\ 02. Use blowpipe darts on ten guards. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
This part of the mission is essentially a series of four, sneak in and loot
mini-missions. Once the mission has begun look at the map. There are four
restricted areas here now, each of which has an objective marker indicating a
gunpowder store that we want to pinch.
The goal at each of these locations is simply to either sneak in and steal the
glowing crates, or alternatively walk in in full sight, murder all of the
enemies in sight and then loot the container as easy as you please. Note that
there are two optional objectives for this mission and one is focused on
straight up combat (kill four guards in a single kill streak), whilst the other
favours a more stealthy approach (use 10 blowpipe darts on guards).
Remember that using berserk darts on brutes is a good way to create
distractions and that sleep darts on gunners are great for being stealthy. Also
note that looting enemy bodies will often yield darts for your blowpipe in
addition to bullets, so if you are the sneaky type, that is definitely worth
doing!
Each of the four locations is relatively easy to figure out and loot, just be
sure to complete those pesky optional objectives before you loot the final
barrel if you want full synchronisation.
Once all four barrels of powder have been looted the mission will be complete.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
After starting the mission, we�ll need to trail the pair of guards nearby. As
per usual, hit eagle vision to tag them. Follow them form a distance along the
first length of the dirt path and hire the dancers here for 150 Reales so that
we have a moving hiding spot. Wait for the soldiers to move past the guards
blocking the road. When they do, use the dancers to distract the guards and
continue through.
Make your way up the road until you see the gunner on the roof of the building
on the left of the street. Climb the roof and take him down quickly. Use the
path through the trees here to reach the next rooftop. Hop onto the next set
of branches to your right and follow it to the end and perform a leap of faith
into the haystack below. Use the stalking bushes to continue after the targets.
As they start moving down the hill to go to the beach area, follow the cliff
to the right of the road whilst keeping an eye on them. Use the stalking bushes
scattered around near the ledge here, avoiding or killing any guards that get
in the way. Once you reach the end of the cliff, perform a leap of faith down
to the haystack below.
Hop out and enter the stalking zone bushes to the right of the tents in the
encampment here and continue after the targets up the small hill until they
stop. This will end the tailing sequence.
=====================
Part 2: Assassinate
=====================
Once the main objective has been updated, the good news is that we are now able
to be detected without risk of failing the mission. There is an optional
objective at this point that asks us to assassinate three enemies from stalking
zone bushes. There are plenty of enemies available in this area, so sneak up
and kill the obvious enemy by himself near the stalking zones and then lure
some other guards over to hiding places to take them down as well. Once you
have killed three of them in this fashion, you will fulfil the requirements for
the optional objective.
Now that we have sorted out first optional objective it is time to proceed with
the primary goal � assassinating the Templar target. It is worth noting that
the second optional task for this mission requires that we assassinate him
using an air assassination attack.
To do this, use the trees, rocks and other debris in the water to make your way
out to the ship in the bay. The target will patrol in a square pattern from the
back of the boat, up to the centre, across and back to the rear end of the
vessel again. I started by climbing up and clearing out the front of the ship
of the two enemies here quietly. Next climb the rigging on one of the sides of
the mast here.
Once up on the higher platforms, work your way over to the front of the ship
(you can get rid of the gunner in the centre if you like, he can be a little
troublesome). After you arrive at the front of the ship, drop down to the
lowest boom on the mast. From here, wait for the target to pass below you,
target him and perform your air assassination to complete the optional task and
the sequence.

\ 01. Use mortar attacks to sink three ships. |
\ |
\ 02. Use fire barrels to sink a ship. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Naval Battle
=====================
For the first part of this memory we will need to escort the friendly ship
nearby and defend it from attacks. We�ll be fighting a large number of gunships
so be sure to stock up on mortars and heavy shots before you get started. As
the gunships are fairly weak and not too hard to deal with, the biggest risk in
this section is losing track of the ship we are escorting and either moving too
far from it and desynchronising or letting it get too far away whilst being
attacked and having it sunk.
To begin, three gunships will appear on the horizon and move in to attack.
Midway through this fight, another three gunships will also show up from the
north. Gunships are the weakest enemies you will encounter in the mission, so
try using your mortars to take all three of them down from a distance (this
will also fulfil the first optional task for the mission).If you are less
interested in full synchronisation, if you have a chance to line up 2-3 of them
at once, broadsiding them is also a viable option. Either way, they should not
put up too much of a challenge.
As the friendly ship changes its course and starts heading west, mortars will
start raining down from ships in the distance, so avoid the coloured water as
you follow the ship. After passing a small island on the left, a further four
gunships will come to engage our buddy. As this attack occurs in a fairly
confined area, it is perfect to attempt sinking a ship using fire barrels for
the second optional objective. To do this, let a gunship get behind you and
slow your speed down. When they are almost onto you drop the barrels to hit
them and they should sink as a result.
Soon after this point, an objective marker will appear in the water. Sail over
to this for a scene.
Afterwards all we need to do is sail through the area previously blocked by
the blockade and avoid enemy ships and their fire as we sail over to the green
objective marker ahead, past the remaining ships to the north. We�ll have to
avoid mortar fire and a few broadsides, so be sure to keep an eye on the water
and manoeuvre around the attacks as best you can.
Once you are passed the ships, the tricky part is over and it is a fairly
straight shot to the marker. When you arrive the mission will be complete.

Before proceeding with this mission, you are going to want to upgrade the
jackdaw again. Whilst it is possible to do the next few missions without doing
so, it will be extremely difficult and very, very frustrating. You should have
at least the following upgrades to make things easier before continuing:

\ |
\ 02. Incapacitate the man-o-war using a heavy shot attack. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
Following the scene, we�ll need to start tailing a target. Immediately activate
your eagle vision to tag the target. Follow him through the camp here, using
the groups of people scattered about as cover as you walk after him. He�ll
walk up a dirt path out of the camp and into a restricted area.
Use the stalking zone bushes here to move up and sit in the bush just outside
the gate. Note that from this point on we�ll have an opportunity to complete
the first optional objective � kill four guards. Whilst in the bush, a guard
will come through the gate to investigate. Whistle him over and assassinate
him from the bush. We�ll now have to eavesdrop on the target as he works his
way through the next few areas.
=====================
Part 2: Eavesdrop
=====================
Head over and hop through the gap in the fence to the left of the open gate and
enter the bushes on the far side. Wait for the target to walk off and run up
and take cover behind the crates in the middle of the area. Sprint up and
assassinate the guard who patrols around here before continuing over and
climbing the wall to the right of the stairs. Perform a ledge assassination on
the guard standing on the balcony above you.
You will see the two bad guys enter a doorway. To the left of this is a second
doorway with a bush in the doorway. Head in here and grab and assassinate the
guard standing next to the bush to complete the optional objective. Sprint to
the opposite side of the room from the bush we are hiding in to reach another
shrub opposite. Enter the shrub filled hallway to the right of this and follow
it all the way to the end. Assassinate the guard by the stalking zone here as
well.
Go through the archway to the left of the arch that the targets go through and
climb to the top of the wall. Drop down to the stalking zone to the right.
Run over to the stairs that the targets climb and follow through the bushes on
the left of the stairs. At the top a scene will play.
=====================
Part 3: Escape
=====================
When we regain control, all hell has just broken loose. Hop down to the town
below and follow the relatively set path across the rooftops, avoiding the fire
as you go. Hop across the ship masts and booms to reach the Jackdaw in the
harbour and interact with the wheel to start sailing.
=====================
Part 4: Naval Battle
=====================
Now that we are back in control of the Jackdaw, make your way out into the open
water. Here we�ll be greeted by a hostile man-o-war vessel. This is quite
difficult as the ship has a high amount of armour, highly damaging broadside,
chase cannon and mortar attacks. As per usual with these tricky fights, we want
to circle our foe, dodging the mortar fire and bracing when we get in the range
of the man-o-war�s broadsides. Use your heavy shots and broadside attacks to
hit the man-o-war and then shoot the weak spots with the swivel gun when they
appear. When the man-o-war is at very low health, ensure that you try and hit
it with a heavy shot to incapacitate it to complete the second optional
objective.
When the man-o-war is incapacitated, sail over and board it.
We�ll now have to do a standard boarding manoeuvre. Before jumping across to
the other deck, hop on the swivel gun and attempt to shoot the three powder
reserve barrels that are marked with the red objective markers. Kill off as
many enemies on the deck as well until the swivel gun runs dry. Afterwards
swing over to the opposite deck, Climb the riggings and take down the two
scouts on the platforms high up in the masts. Once they are dead, return to the
deck and kill off enemy forces until a scene plays.
=====================
Part 5: Escape
=====================
When you regain control, swim over to the Jackdaw and get behind the wheel. We
now have to escape the zone. As with the previous sequence�s final mission,
we�ll have to avoid mortar fire and a few broadsides, so be sure to keep an eye
on the water and manoeuvre around the attacks and the enemy ships as best you
can.
Once you are passed the ships, just sail straight out into the ocean until the
mission is complete.

\ 02. Use the fort's defences to destroy an enemy ship. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
Note that this mission is tough, but is easier if you have upgraded the Jackdaw
to at least the specifications listed in the Sequence 8 intro above. It will
also be much easier to complete if you have previously captured the Cabo de
Cruz fort.
=====================
Part 1: Locate
=====================
The first part of the mission asks us to track down and locate the slave ship.
If you look at the map, you will see that there is a green circle indicating
the area in which it is located. As with the previous mission like this, the
green zone is located within a restricted area, so ensure that you steer clear
of the cones of visions of enemy ships as you go! Fortunately, you have a
friendly ship with you this time and it will eventually lead you to the target
ship. Just keep after it and use the spyglass to identify each ship as you go
until you find it.
For ease of locating it, it is at the far end of the green circle to the east,
at the co-ordinates (474, 424).
=====================
Part 2: Pursuit
=====================
When we get close to it, the ship will sail off. The friendly ship that is with
us will give chase and they will sail side by side, shooting at each other.
Hold back and follow them from a distance as to not be hit by any cross fire,
but feel free to use your weapons to attack the target ship (there�s a pretty
difficult battle coming up and if you can do a bit of damage to the ship now,
it will reduce the length of the battle). The slave ship and our friend will go
at it until they exit from the small island chain and into an open area.
At this point, sail over and bump into the friendly ship for a short cut-scene.
Our objectives will now be updated.
=====================
Part 3: Naval Battle
=====================
We are now in open water which means we have a bit of room to move around. The
bad news is that there is a fort nearby (Cabo de Cruz), which will attack you
with its defences and mortars in a bid to sink you. Additionally, there are
another two brigs in the area in addition to the slave ship. Our goal is to
incapacitate and board the slaver�s ship.
The fort�s defences consist of cannon towers overlooking the water, and cannon
walls that will launch broadside-like strikes against your ship. In addition
to the towers, the fort will launch mortars into the ocean in a bid to hit you.
Remember that mortars and enemy attacks will appear as colours on the water
with yellow and red indicating where their weapons are targeting. If you see
your ship in the range of the red water, tell your men to brace immediately to
avoid taking too much damage or immediately manoeuvre out of the area.
To complete the first of the two optional objectives we need to damage the
target ship with an upgraded ram (I hope you purchased it earlier as I
suggested!) by simply running into it. The second objective is a little
trickier, as we need to damage one of the other ships in the area quite badly
and then instead of finishing it off, lure it into following us past the fort
and have it get caught up in the fort�s cannon and mortar fire so that it
sinks. Note that if you have previously captured the Cabo de Cruz fort, it
will target enemy forces instead of you during the battle.
Either way, once you have whittled the target ship down to minimal health,
board it. Kill 15 soldiers on deck and climb the riggings to take out the two
gunners in the platforms at the top to complete the mission.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Pursuit
=====================
As we begin cross the beach and find the dirt path leading inland that is
marked by the crumbling ruins. Follow this path as it goes, and soon after
crossing the first patch of water, you�ll be attacked by a black jaguar. Fend
it off and then chase it down and kill it, skin it (there is an optional
objective to skin three animals and this is our first). Continue until you
reach an opening in front of a large ruined temple.
Cross the river here to reach the main building. Now we need to climb all the
way over to where our friend was just before. As you reach the viewpoint here,
the game will show him running off down the river. As such, synchronise the
viewpoint and dive down into the river below to follow him downstream.
Use the log and the path through the treetops to avoid the crocodile in the
small pool of water below and when you reach the far side, move forward until
you see a cut-scene.
=====================
Part 2: Assassinate
=====================
After the scene, the target will sit on a bridge and alternate between shooting
at you and throwing grenades. Between shots, you want to move between the
sections of ruined walls in the area between us and the target to use as
cover. Our ultimate aim is to reach the ramp leading out of the water at the
far left of the area. Climb this and our target will run off.
=====================
Part 3: Pursuit
=====================
Use the now collapsed log as a ramp to climb up to the ledge on the far side
of the area. Continue along the dirt path here to the left and use the bent
over tree at the end as a bridge to access the treetop path. Follow this to the
left. Stop and hang out in the branch just before the hunting platform. Just
below this in the distance you�ll see a black jaguar, which will come in your
direction. When it passes below, perform an air assassination on it and skin
it.
Run over to where the black jaguar came from and cross the log bridge here. At
the end, turn right and go down the hill to find another jaguar. Fight it off
and then chase and kill it. Skin it to complete the optional objective. Work
your way across the ruins at the bottom of the hill and follow the dirt path
beyond them until you reach another open temple area. The game will show you
your target once more that this point.
=====================
Part 4: Assassinate
=====================
Similar to the previous encounter with this target, he�ll hang out on top of
the temple in the distance and alternate between shooting at you and throwing
grenades. Between shots, you want to move between the sections of ruined walls
in the area between us and the target to use as cover. We want to reach the
base of the wall beneath him and then follow it to the right, go around the
corner, still hugging the wall and climb the broken piece of stone archway in
the centre of the water.
From the top of the archway, jump to the platform on the side of the building
that our target is located on and scale the main part of the building to the
very top. Synchronise the viewpoint here if you like and then highlight the
target and perform an air assassination on him to complete the second optional
objective and the mission.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
After the intro, move up the street a short distance and enter the plantation
through the broken wall. Hide in the sugarcane field and move to the far end.
Wait for the brute to patrol close to you and then whistle him over to you.
Eliminate him from cover (note that we have to kill four of these guys for an
optional objective). Do the same lure and assassinate manoeuvre for the next
patrolling guard.
Now when it is safe to do so, move up and sabotage the first alarm bell here.
Continue into the bushes on the far side of the bell. Kil the patrolling guard
here when he comes into range. Then make your way over to the bushes next to
the building. Follow them around the corner and stop in the bushes just before
the street. Wait for the group of three patrolling guards to start walking
back to the right and then cross the street and run into the sugarcane field.
There is a second bell to your right. Use whistles and the cover here to
eliminate the three guards that patrol around it and then sabotage it when you
are able.
Return to the sugarcane field just this side of the road we crossed earlier.
From the chimney of the house here, run across the small open grassy area to
the bush on the hill opposite. From here turn left to see a brute with his
back to a bush. Sneak down into this and assassinate him from cover. From
here, look north and you�ll see another stalking zone with another brute
patrolling around it. Wait here for a few moments as there is a pair of
patrolling guards that periodically enter the area. Once you see them walk off
and no-one else is looking, move up to the next stalking zone.
From here, assassinate the brute when he walks past and then move up to the
bush at the base of the house ahead. When it is safe to do so, run over to
the stalking zone bush in front of the fenced off area with the civilians
raking inside. From here if you turn to the right you should spot our targets.
Activate Eagle vision to tag them.
=====================
Part 2: Tailing
=====================
Now we will need to follow the two targets back the way we came. Be sure to
use eagle vision to tag them and follow them at a distance, making use of the
stalking zones. As they start down the road through the centre of the area
towards the exit, run over to the right hand side and use the sugarcane fields
and the hole in the wall to leave the compound after them. Stick in the bush
just near the hole in the wall until they go down the street to the left.
As they go, use the buildings as cover and peek out from corners to keep them
in sight as you continue after them. They will hang a left soon enough and
walk through a circular restricted area and out the other side where they will
stop briefly. To avoid unnecessary trouble, head around the side of the
building to the south of the restricted area and peek from around the corner
of the fence to keep an eye on them until they move on.
Follow them using the various stalking zones here until they reach the next,
larger restricted area.
The main entrance is guarded, so go and hop through the gap in the fence to
the right. You�ll end up in a stalking zone bush inside the secure compound.
Assassinate the brute with his back to you from the bushes here (this should
complete the optional objective of killing four brutes). Now look back at the
targets who are chatting with a new friend at the gate.
=====================
Part 3: Eavesdrop
=====================
After a few moments, the group with your targets will walk off. Follow after
them hugging the left hand wall and staying out of sight behind crates until
you can safely reach the stalking zone bushes ahead. At this point, the group
will enter a building here. We�ll stay outside for the moment though.
Assassinate the guy with his back to you at the edge of the bush and move up
to the next stalking zone and repeat.
Now climb up to the open window above to the left of the door our targets went
through. Sprint across the upper level and assassinate the gunner at the far
end. Jump out the window into the tree and climb to the top. Perform a leap of
faith into the haystack below.
Now quickly walk a short distance down the street after our targets and then
cut in through the open fence on our left. Run over to the eastern wall of the
large building and wait for the eavesdrop circle to move south a little
further. When the zone incorporates the haystack near the fence to the south,
jump in to hide. After a few moments a scene will play.
=====================
Part 4: Escape
=====================
After the scene has run its course, sprint out of the barn, hop one of the
fences and escape the area. Find a hiding spot and when it is all clear, the
sequence will be completed.

of them before the game will allow us to continue. Use the rocky areas as
cover to get angles on enemy ships and block incoming fire (if you are good
enough!).
Once all five of them have been dealt with, a green objective marker will
appear in the shallows off the beach nearby, go and park the ship here, and
swim ashore.
=====================
Part 2: Rescue
=====================
Find the path leading inland from the back left hand side of the beach. Use
the stalking zones to move around the corner here. There are two sets of two
guards in this area. Wait for the first group to go and stop with the second.
When they are all together, shoot the powder barrels at their feet to kill all
four at once. Use the bent over tree nearby to get up and over the top of the
wooden gate ahead. Drop down on the far side.
After the scene, continue up the dirt path nearby and enter the first stalking
zone bush you encounter. Wait for the patrolling brute to get close to you and
lure him over with a whistle and assassinate him from the bush. Now move to
the bushes on the right and then up to the fence in front. Sneak over and
assassinate the guy at the gate. Slip inside and enter the stalking zone
bushes along the left hand wall.
Wait until there are no patrols in the area and run over and dive into the
haystack. Assassinate the guy leaning against it. Now wait for the pair of
guards to patrol into the area from the north. Once they do their thing here
and then start to head back north again, hop out of the hay and follow them.
Perform a double assassination on them and then go through the gate at the top
of the hill. Enter the stalking zone bushes just to the left inside.
Kill the dude with his back to you. From here you�ll see the first of two
pirates we need to rescue. There are two gunners aiming at the pirate, a
regular guard watching them in a stationary position and a captain patrolling
up and down the stairs in the distance behind them. On top of the tower there
is another gunner. Wait for the captain to climb the stairs, when he does, use
a sleep dart on the gunner on the tower and run across to the shrubs behind
the guards next to the pirate. Assassinate the regular and then double
assassinate the pair of gunners. Free the pirate and deal with the captain if
he notices you.
Exit the gate we came in from and follow the path to the left. Stay as far
left as you can and you should be able to work your way along the top of the
cliff here without being spotted. Duck in and enter the shrub just beyond the
first mud brick house you see on the right.
Assassinate the guy with his back to you when the other close guard patrols
away and when the patroller returns whistle him over to the bush and do the
same to him. Sneak over and kill the stationary soldier at the top of the
cliff to the left. Climb the small ledge in front of him to enter another
bush.
From this bush here, look further along the cliff. You�ll see a tent ahead.
Just behind this are another two gunners with the second group of pirates we
need to recue for the optional objective. If you wait a moment, you�ll see
that there is a guard that patrols from behind the fence to the campfire ahead
and to your right in the open. Either stalk and assassinate him, or put him to
sleep and then sneak up and double assassinate the gunners. Free the
prisoners.
Now it�s time to get back to the real objective of the mission, assassinating
the pair of Templars.
=====================
Part 3: Assassinate
=====================
From the second group of pirates, you will notice that there is a lower ledge
just below. If you drop down here and walk back to the right, you will do so
at the base of the fence and outside of it (no enemies to avoid � huzzah!). As
you move along the ledge, observe the area below. You want to find the
haystack at the base of the cliff and perform a leap of faith into it.
Note: for my strategy to earn the optional objective of double assassinating
the Templar targets you need to be really quick and it may take a few attempts
to get the hang of, but it works!
From the haystack, hop out to the right and enter the stalking zone bushes
here. Assassinate the guy with his back to you. Wait for the big patrol to
walk off and quickly run across the road and hide in the bush to the right of
the house at the base of the guard tower. Turn to your right and use a
sleeping dart to knock out the patrolling guard and then sprint straight
ahead, keeping the wall of the house to your left as you go. Enter the stalking
zone bush at the base of the tree just beyond the house.
From this bush, you should be able to see the two targets. They will walk past
you and come together briefly as they pass the table in the clearing just in
front of you. Take this opportunity to run up behind them and double
assassinate them.
After the death scene, walk down to the beach nearby to hear our friend�s
little speech. Once it is completed the memory and the sequence will be over.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
Following the previous sequence, there will be a fairly lengthy cut-scene.
Once this ends, hop into the Jackdaw and sail it over to the golden exclamation
mark icon on the south western side of the map. Approach the ship anchored
here to start the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Navigate
=====================
Behind the wheel of the ship, steer it forward and take the first left. Pilot
it along the set route through the narrow passage between the rocky cliffs.
Take it slowly as the wind in this location can be strong and change directions
suddenly which will put you into a wall if you do not take care.
Eventually you will reach some ships anchored in the area. Pull out your
spyglass and look at the closest one to find our target. We�ll pull up beside
it. At this point we need to steal its flag. To do this, dive into the water
and swim around to the back of the Portuguese ship. Use stealth swim to stay
out of sight of the soldiers aboard the ship.
Once we reach the other side, climb the rigging all the way to the top of the
mast indicated by the green objective marker. Interact with the flag here. Now
dive off the mast here into the water below whilst holding down the stealth
swim button to stay out of sight. Swim back towards the Jackdaw and when you
exit the red zone feel free to surface. Return to the Jackdaw�s wheel to
continue.
Now we need to proceed further down the set route through the water, sail
between and avoid the enemy ships until we reach the green zone on the map.
Continue along until the game shows us a ship ahead unloading cargo.
=====================
Part 2: Infiltrate
=====================
At this point, we want to dive into the water and stealth swim over to the
right hand side of the shore. Note the bushes at the edge of the water and
up against the rocky cliff wall behind them. Enter the shrubs closest to the
shore and turn left. See the brute further up the beach? Hit him with a berserk
dart. This will draw in all the patrolling guards. Whilst they are occupied,
run to the rock face ahead and follow the wall to the left.
At the end, you�ll see a pair of guards below, double assassinate them and
quickly run through the tunnel here and as you exit to the open area
immediately hide in the stalking zone bushes to the left. Wait for the
patrollers along the beach to walk towards the guard tower in the distance and
then run over and jump into the water. Swim parallel to the shore, being sure
to use stealth swim immediately if you are spotted. When in line with the
guard tower, swim to shore and hide in the bush beneath it.
From here whistle over the two guys in the camp below the tower and dispatch
them in the bushes. Watch the mini map and wait until the gunner is looking
out to the water. At this point quickly run over to the chest and loot it
before returning below the tower again.
Wait for the Jackdaw to sail around the corner and stop nearby and when it is
safe to do so, swim out and board it.
=====================
Part 3: Navigate
=====================
Again we�ll need to pilot the ship along the waterway a short distance until
you bump into a fleet of anchored ships. At this point, we need to slow right
down and manoeuvre our way through the stationary (and one or two moving)
vessels until we reach the red restricted area. At this time a short scene
will play.
=====================
Part 4: Infiltrate
=====================
Dive off the ship and swim over to the cliff wall to the right of the shore
where the guards are patrolling. Linger at the edge of the restricted area.
From here, watch the two man patrol that reaches the section of the beach
closest to you. When they turn away, swim to the edge of the beach and enter
the shrubs nearby. Next to this patch of stalking zone, you�ll see a large
slanted tree leading in the direction of the first guard tower. When no-one is
looking, follow this up and into the treetop path. Jump to the guard tower and
double assassinate the watchmen here.
Now drop down from the guard tower on the side closest to the water and again
swim parallel to the shore until you see a large shipwreck on the right. Climb
up onto this and use a sleep dart on the lone guard patrolling along the coast
from our current location to a spot between us and the second guard tower.
When he�s down, use the bowsprit of the wrecked ship to leap to the ledge
above. Run over and enter the stalking zone beneath the tower. When nobody is
looking, climb the ladder up to the guard tower platform. Assassinate the lone
watchman here.
At this point, another target will appear on the ship below with a red
objective marker. Also note the shining rope on the right hand side of the
guard tower facing the ship. Wait for the target to be in line with this and
then swing on the rope over to the ship, press the assassination button
continually and if timed right, you should assassinate him from the rope swing
for the second optional objective.
A cut-scene will bring in the next section of the level.
=====================
Part 5: Naval Battle
=====================
Now we have a brand new ship that is quite powerful and we�ll get to test it
out now against a few enemy ships. The first group consists of four frigates.
Drop some mortars on them as they approach and then use your heavy shot and
broadside attacks to dish out the damage when they get in close. They should
pose no real threat.
The second battle however is a little trickier as there is a pair of man o�
War ships that will attack you next. Again, slow your speed down and use the
mortars on them as they approach. Use as many mortars as possible on them and
if you play your cards right, when they arrive they should have much reduced
health. At this point, the usual heavy shots/broadsides should do the trick.
Another group of ships including a gun ship, a hunter and a couple of brigs
will follow you as you leave the area. Deal with them as you see fit, they
should not pose much of a threat after the man o� wars and mortars will pretty
much destroy any of these ships instantly if you can nail them with it.
Once all the enemy ships have been dealt with, rendezvous with the friendlies
piloting the Jackdaw nearby marked with the green objective marker to complete
the mission.

\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Stay out of combat whilst locating the Templar target's ship. |
\ |
\ 02. Perform an air assassination on the Templar target. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Locate
=====================
The first part of the mission asks us to track down and locate the �Benjamin�
a target ship. If you look at the map, you will see that there is a green
circle indicating the area in which it is located so sail your way over to this
location. As with the previous mission like this, the green zone is located
within a restricted area, so ensure that you steer clear of the cones of
visions of enemy ships as you go! There is an optional objective to stay out
of combat whilst finding our target, so be sure to steer clear of enemy
vessels if you want to earn it.
If you look at the map, you�ll see a red restricted area just outside the
northwest corner of the green investigation circle. This is our ultimate
destination (well the target ship is slightly off the coast at co-ordinates:
242,236). We essentially need to follow the coast of the large island to its
south all the way around until we reach the target area, use the spyglass to
identify the target ship. If you managed to do all that without getting
spotted along the way, you will have completed the optional objective.
=====================
Part 2: Naval Battle
=====================
Once we have identified the ship, any enemy vessels in the immediate area will
automatically become hostile and attack � usually a frigate in addition to the
target ship (which is a schooner). Deal with both ships using your usual
combination of heavy shots/broadsides and mortar bombardment to deal some
heavy damage where possible. After the target vessel has been damaged
sufficiently, a cut-scene will play.
=====================
Part 3: Assassinate
=====================
Once we regain control, we�ll be on an island that is absolutely teeming with
our target�s soldiers. Thankfully there is no mission constraint in place that
tells us we cannot get spotted or engage in combat. You will see the red
objective marker indicating our target�s location above a ruin to the south.
If you look to the left of this, you�ll see a second, separate set of ruins.
This second set of ruins is our entry point to the target�s location.
Work your way over to the ruins directly east of the target�s location using
stealth or open combat as you see fit. Keep scaling the ruins until you reach
the very top and eliminate the gunner here. When you reach the top of the ruins
here it is important to lose/kill any hostiles and become anonymous so that we
can approach the target�s location undetected.
When you are good to go, use the branch in the southwest corner of this ruin
to use the treetop path over to the target�s platform. As you arrive,
immediately head through the crack in the wall of the ruin ahead and hide in
the stalking zone. Move slightly to the right and look to the west, you�ll see
a pair of guards beneath a stone archway. They will stay there in a stationary
position and there is a third patrolling around this area. Use the sleep darts
on all three of these enemies and then run over and knock them out.
Now locate the tall pillars on the western part of this area and use them to
jump across to the main structure where our target is located. Climb to the
very top of this and from the ledge at the top, look down and target the
Templar. Hit the assassinate button to perform an air assassination on him to
complete the optional objective and the mission.

\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Incapacitate all guardians whilst unarmed. |
\ |
\ 02. Incapacitate five guardians from stalking zones. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
Before we do anything else, set your weapon to unarmed. There is an optional
objective to complete the mission whilst eliminating all our competition
unarmed.
This mission is fairly simple. We�ll be working through a number of jungle
zones marked by green circles on the map. In each of these zones, you will
find a number of guardians (the tribal local inhabitants). We need to find and
knock out or incapacitate all of them before proceeding to the next section.
Most of the time the guardians will be hidden in tees and stalking zones, so
we can use Eagle vision to locate them. The second optional objective asks us
to incapacitate five guardians from stalking zones, so keep that in mind as we
progress.
Make your way up the path to the first zone. There are three guardians here,
all in stalking zones. There is one the centre of the open area below and
another in a series of bushes to his left. The third (and our first target) is
on the ledge to our right.
Follow the stalking zone along the wall to the right. When you reach the end
of the bushes run over to the next stalking zone ahead with the first guardian
in it. Sneak up on him and knock him out. From here, look down into the
clearing below with eagle vision to identify the target here. Use the rock
ledge nearby to drop down behind him. Sneak up and take him down from within
the stalking zone. Now sneak over and take down the final guardian near the
stream.
Follow the stream uphill until you reach the waterfall. This is the beginning
of the second zone. Enter the main part of the zone to the left of the
waterfall and look for a large rock on top of a cliff that can be used to
access a wooden watch platform. Form the platform use eagle vision to identify
the three guardians in the bushes below (there is on either side of the stream
and another over to the east). Once you have spotted them, jump over to the
second wooden lookout platform on the left using the wooden poles and drop
down behind the guardian here. Take him down.
Backtrack up the river and climb the tree here to get back up to the top of
the cliff. Hop to the second wooden lookout platform again and then use the
branch nearby to get behind the second guardian Repeat the process by dropping
down from a branch into the shrubs behind him. Knock him out too. Now follow
this stalking zone to the end and quickly run up and enter the stalking zone
behind the final guardian to the left. Knock him out as well.
Now head up the river to the third zone.
Again, you�ll want to get up into the treetop paths and the wooden lookout
platforms to get a vantage point over the area. Note that your first guardian
will be on one of these platforms so hop over and deal with him as soon as
possible before he notices you. After he is done, again use your eagle vision
to identify the targets and use the various platforms/tree branches etc., to
drop down behind each of them and incapacitate them.
By now you should have completed the optional objective for incapacitating
five enemies form stalking zones, if so, from now on, feel free to enter into
open combat wherever you like � just ensure that you have your fists equipped
at all times for the other optional objective and do not shoot anyone! If you
haven�t got the stalking zone task done just yet, you�ll have one more
opportunity a little later.
For now, we need to clear out a cave. There are 10-12 guardians in here.
Unlike the jungle sections, these guys are not hiding and instead will be
lurking about in the water running down the centre of the ground floor of the
cave, on the ledges around the top of the room overlooking the water and in
some of the side-tunnels all in plain sight. As you eliminate the guardians,
the search area will narrow, showing you where to look for any additional
enemies. Once you have cleared this area, move on to the next objective
marker.
We are back in a jungle setting once more. Follow the path that leads up to
the right at the back of the first area. There is a guardian in the shrubs
here. Cross the bridge made from the fallen tree and take out the guardian
in the stalking zone on the far side. Now follow the path around until you
reach a clearing in front of an odd black stone building.
There are three more guardians here to incapacitate. There is one patrolling
back and forth on the block of stone directly in front of you as you enter the
area, a second is patrolling a higher platform of the building on the left and
a final guardian in the stalking zone behind the building on the left.
Once all three of these guys have been knocked out, follow your allies over
to the door to the main building.
=====================
Part 2: Explore
=====================
Pick up the chest and follow your friend through the building, walk with them
until you reach a circular room with a glowing panel at the far end. Place the
chest below this as instructed. After a bit of chit-chat, a cut-scene will
ensue.
=====================
Part 3: Escape
=====================
When we regain control, we�ll be in the water. Turn around and climb the block
here. Keep climbing the blocks here until we reach the circular platform with
the glowing panel we visited just before. With your back to the panel, look
to the left. Climb the stairs there and use the pillar to access the balcony
above and to the left. Climb the right hand wall here and shimmy all the way
to the right. When you can go no further, climb up and jump backwards to the
handholds behind you.
Shimmy across to the left until you reach a small platform. From here run and
jump to the handhold ahead. Climb this to the top and follow the cave here all
the way to the end. As you emerge, you�ll slide down a slope and into the water
below.
Swim over to the beach populated by people nearby for a scene to end the
mission and the sequence.

===============================================================================
After the previous mission, we�ll find ourselves back in the real world and
interestingly, we have been moved to another location during the time we have
been using the Animus. After a brief conversation with our friend over the
television, we�ll be able to move about. Before long, a familiar voice will
come in over our ear piece and give us a new objective.
Exit the room and work your way down the hallway to the left and at the
crossroad, follow the path straight until you reach the security room. Run up
and interact with the computer here to hack it. Doing so will fire up a new
wavelength hacking mini-game. Remember the last time we did one of these? It
features a number at the top of the page and sets of four numbers at the
bottom of the screen. This time however, there are four sets of numbers rather
than three, making it a little trickier.
As before, we need to select numbers from each of the four groups at the
bottom, so that when multiplied together in order, they equal the number at
the top of the page.
To solve this puzzle use the following steps:
> Set the first group of numbers to �7�.
> Set the second group of numbers to �3�.
> Set the third group of numbers to �5�.
> Set the fourth group of numbers to �7�.
This will complete the security measure. Now all we need to do is sit back and
watch the surveillance footage for a few moments. Afterwards exit the security
camera room.
Return to the crossroads and turn to the left. Follow the corridor around
until you reach the server room. Again, make your way up to the computer at
the far end of the room and interact with it when you are able to do so.
Another wavelength hacking mini-game! As before, we need to select numbers
from each of the four groups at the bottom, so that when multiplied together
in order, they equal the number at the top of the page.
To solve this puzzle use the following steps:
> Set the first group of numbers to �7�.
> Set the second group of numbers to �3�.
> Set the third group of numbers to �7�.
> Set the fourth group of numbers to �7�.
This will remove the first security screen. Unfortunately there is another
security measure in place and as such, we�ll have to go ahead and participate
in another mini-game.
This hacking sequence is similar to the mini-game we encountered in our
previous foray into the real world and involves moving a blue dot across the
moving lines to the right to reach the far side. Avoid the red lines and reach
the far end to complete the hack. Note that this one is slightly trickier than
the previous one and the red lines move faster. Try your best to be patient as
if you rush, more often than not, you�ll hit a red line and have to start
over.
Once you have successfully completed the second hack a video will play. Exit
from the computer menu for a story scene. Once it is over, return to your room
and interact with the Animus to continue with Edward�s story.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
We�ll begin this mission trapped in a cage hanging above the ground. At this
point, we can hit any button to create noise to draw the attention of the
guards here. Continue to do this until a scene plays.
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
Note that you will not fail the mission if you just run in and kill everyone
on sight if that�s what you want to do, but in the interest of playing like a
stealthy person, I have written the guide on how to do it without being
detected.
As you begin, check out the crates just to the left. Run up these and hop
across to the trees, follow the treetop pathway over the wall. Dive into the
haystack below. Wait here for a few moments and a guard will patrol over to
you, grab him and assassinate him from the hiding spot when he comes into
range. Keep an eye on your mini-map and when no-one is looking, pop out and
sabotage the bell (bell 1 of 3 sabotaged). Immediately sprint across the
street and enter the bushes at the base of the wall to the right before you
are spotted.
Work your way along the wall, making sure to keep tabs on the enemies so that
they are not looking when you move between bushes. When you reach the wooden
fence, follow it away from the wall and sit in the bush closest to the well.
Wait here for a moment and when the patrolling guard comes in close to your
position, whistle him into the bush and assassinate him.
Now look over towards the well. Wait for the patrolling enemy to turn away
from you and then run over and jump into it. Pull the guard with his back to
you into the well for a silent kill. Hang from the well until the patrolling
guard makes his next pass. When he returns back the other way, hop out and
sabotage the bell (bell 2 of 3 sabotaged). Enter the bushes to the left. The
next time the patroller walks by, whistle him over and take him down from
cover.
Watch your mini map. Across from the visible guard with his back to the bushes
ahead of you is another guard patrolling back and forward between buildings.
Wait until he is facing away from the other guard and then move up to the next
bush against the right hand wall. Sneak up and assassinate the stationary
guard. Continue along the wall until you reach the corner.
Quickly duck around the corner and interact with the flashing cage here to
visit with an old friend (Friend 1 of2 visited). Return to the corner. Now
wait for all of the guards to look away from your position. When this happens,
we are going to run across the small street directly to our left and jump into
the bush on the opposite side. Assassinate the nearby guard when no-one else
is looking before moving up to the next bush next to the bell when it is safe
to do so. Whistle the patrolling guard over and dispatch him from cover.
Watch the guards from the direction we came from as one will patrol a short
distance with his eyes on the bell and then go back again. When he is facing
away from you, ignore the bell and hop into the haystack near the half wall on
the left. Assassinate the guy leaning against it.
From the cart, you can make out a gunner above the gate ahead, additionally
there is a stationary guard to the left who will constantly have his eyes on
the bell. When it�s safe, quickly sprint back to the previous bush. From here
use sleep darts on the gunner above the gate and the stationary guard to the
left. Wait the patrolling guard I previously mentioned to look away and hop
out to sabotage the third bell (bell 3 of 3 sabotaged). Continue into the
bushes opposite.
At this point, you should be able to see the gate. Use a couple of berserk
darts on enemies in the nearby area to draw the guards away and quickly run up
and through. Enter the stalking zone to the left as you enter the prison. Move
up until you are opposite the green objective marker indicating the door and
again use your berserk darts on an enemy or two in the courtyard here to cause
a distraction. Whilst the guards are all preoccupied, quickly run over and
enter the prison proper
=====================
Part 2: Rescue
=====================
Now that we are inside the prison proper, it�s time to track down and rescue
our friends.
Follow the hallway to the far end and continue around the corner to the right.
Assassinate the guard here with his back to you. There is a pair of guards
further into this room patrolling about and another standing stationary in the
centre. Watch your mini-map to see where they are looking. When you are sure
it is safe to do so, run over and hop into the haystack in the centre of the
floor. Assassinate the guard within range of the haystack and then wait for
the patrollers to walk away from you. When they do, run up and double
assassinate them from behind.
Now activate your eagle vision and examine the cells. One of them has a red
coloured person in it. Run over and interact with the door for a brief
conversation (Friend 2 of2 visited).
Make your way over to the hallway in the northeast corner of the room. Hang
out behind the door frame for a few moments and a guard will patrol into the
hallway ahead. Wait for him to walk away and quickly run up and take him down
from behind. Do the same to the other guard in this corridor.
Continue round the corner and double assassinate the two guards at the
entrance to the room ahead standing with their backs to you. Now sneak over
to the far end of the room and you�ll spy another pair of guards with their
backs to you looking into cells. Assassinate one, and your friend from the
start of the mission should take care of the other. Interact with the cell
door on the left for a scene.
=====================
Part 3: Escape
=====================
Following the scene, walk through the open door to the left and continue down
the corridor. Keep going until you get outside. From here it should be a
straight shot over to the green waypoint marker in the distance. So run over
there as quickly as you can. If you get detected by guards along the way, put
the object that you are carrying down, eliminate the hostiles, then pick up
the object again and continue.
As you reach the marker a scene will play to complete the mission.

=====================
Part 1: Exploration
=====================
Note that the game will appear to go to a loading screen, with the blue Animus
glitches and fragments all over the place. This is in fact, not a loading
screen but the start of the next mission. Don�t do what I did and sit there
looking at the screen for several minutes thinking that my game had stopped
loading!
Move towards the bright light in the distance. After a short distance a
cut-scene will commence.
Afterwards, follow the target from the scene to the opposite end of the room.
Hit the button prompt that appears on screen.
The environment will shift and we�ll be somewhere else. Again, move forward
and follow the target until he stops moving.
Again the screen will shift. Now you are underwater. Swim all the way up to
the surface. Climb out via the stairs to enter a small marketplace style area.
Our target will split into three at this point and walk to three different
locations � one will go directly right from the top of the stairs, the second
will turn left and follow the path back to the corner behind the stairs whilst
the third will stand in front of the archway directly in front of the stairs.
Find and assassinate all three.
The environment will change one final time. You are on the deck of your ship
and behind the wheel. Pilot the ship over and crash it into the island lit up
by the glowing white lights in the distance.
After the ensuing scene, the memory will be complete.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
After the previous mission, you�ll get an objective marker on the western side
of the world map at Tulum. Sail over here and reach the marker to begin the
mission.
To start with, we just need to walk with the friendly NPC with the blue
objective marker above his head. As you reach the large temple building, a
scene will play. Afterwards you will have access to rope darts. These are
handy as you can use them to pull people off balance for an easy assassination,
or hit them with darts from up in a tree and then hold back on the stick to
hang them for an easy kill. Handy!
=====================
Part 1: Fight
=====================
This next section is a series of fights as we move through the jungle towards
the beach. Note that there is an optional objective to both hang two enemies
with rope darts and to pull three of them off their feet, as such look out for
opportunities to knock these off as soon as possible.
Head through the first few green objective markers until you reach one that is
located above some hostiles in a tree. Use a rope dart to hang your first
soldier here. Kill the rest at ground level. Continue around the next corner
and use a rope dart to pull one of these soldiers, kill him when you are done.
Follow your friend up the branch and into the nearby tree, after a jump or two
there will be a mess of enemies below. At this point use a rope dart to hang
your second enemy. Now that you are at ground level, defend yourself against
the 6-7 enemy soldiers and if you get the chance try to use rope darts to
finish off the rope dart pull objective. Once all of the soldiers are dead or
dying continue along the path until you reach the beach.
=====================
Part 2: Fight
=====================
As we reach the beach, there is a full on Spanish invasion going down. To
complete the mission, we need to kill 20 of the enemies on the beach and in
the ships out in the bay and the captain who is also on the ship out in the
bay. Stay on the beach and be sure to use your rope darts to fulfil those
optional objectives if you haven�t done them yet.
Once you have killed around 15 enemies, make your way over to the ship with
the captain on board (he�ll have a conveniently placed red objective marker
for us). Stealth swim around to the back of the ship and climb on board. Run
over and hit the group of gunners with the captain with a smoke bomb and
finish them all off whilst they are stunned. Finish off any remaining enemies
until you have reached the quota.
As soon as you have killed 20 enemies and the captain the mission will be
complete.

\ 01. Kill the tailing target from a haystack. |
\ |
\ 02. Assassinate the Templar target from a bench. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Locate
=====================
From the start of the mission, head over to the green circle indicating the
search area on the map. When you arrive, go to the back of the marketplace,
close to the water and use eagle vision to identify the target here.
=====================
Part 2: Tailing
=====================
As the diplomat walks off, use eagle vision to tag him. Afterwards, enter the
open fence to the right of where the target was initially. Run to the fence
that goes parallel to the street that the target walks upon and follow him
from the inside. As he turns onto the next street, go through the gap in the
fence, cross the street and go through the gap in the fence here a little over
to the right.
Tail him as he walks through the compound and as he exits the gate, he�ll stop
for a few moments. We�ll stay inside the fenced compound here and run over to
the western side. Hop the fence and run towards the viewpoint marker on the
map. Across the street directly to the north of this you will see a house with
a ladder. Climb this and use the northern part of the roof to dive into the
hay bale below.
Now wait for the diplomat to arrive. He will stop briefly in front of the hay
bale. When he does, quickly assassinate him to complete the first optional
objective.
A short cut-scene will play.
=====================
Part 3: Assassinate
=====================
When you regain control, Edward will be all pimped out in his new digs. Move
forward and up the stairs to reach the green waypoint marker in the distance.
As you reach the waypoint marker, hit eagle vision to mark your target � he�s
the fellow giving the speech in the centre of the square. Note that whilst no
guards will be hostile, the target will recognise you if you stay in his line
of sight for too long. As such, as soon as you have tagged him, move forward
slightly and at the end of the building on the left, enter the small sheltered
area. Take a seat on the bench here to watch the speech uninterrupted.
Note that there is an optional objective here to kill the target from a bench.
Conveniently, the bench I have got you sitting in is one that he will pass by.
As such, simply remain in this bench until he starts making the rounds
following his speech. As he passes by, hit the assassinate button to kill him.
=====================
Part 4: Escape
=====================
After the scene has run its course, hop over the wall into the water and escape
the area. Find a hiding spot and when it is all clear, a new waypoint marker
will appear. Head over here and speak with your buddies to end the sequence.

\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Kill eight guards by destroying powder barrels. |
\ |
\ 02. Use a rope dart to kill the assassination target. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
To begin this mission, sail over to Principe on the eastern side of the world
map and approach the golden exclamation point here.
=====================
Part 1: Locate
=====================
After beginning the mission, dive off the boat and swim in a direct line from
the front of the Jackdaw to shore. There is an optional objective at this
point to kill eight enemies using the powder kegs lying around. As you reach
the shore you should see a large barrel on the side of the dirt road to the
right, just next to the house here. At this point, we�re not worried about
being detected and we just want to knock over the optional objective as quickly
as possible.
To do this, run past the keg and up the dirt path behind it until you find the
big patrol, alerting as many guards as you can in the process. Then, lead them
all back to the keg. Wait until there is a good number surrounding it and then
shoot it to blow them up. You should be able to easily get 8+ kills in one
shot if enough enemies were close enough. If you still require more, there are
plenty of other barrels scattered throughout the settlement to the north. So
just repeat the process of luring guards to and then shooting barrels until
you have met the quota for the optional task.
Once you have completed the objective, return to the southern part of the area
and either lose any hostile enemies on you, or kill them all.
When you are good to continue, go up the dirt ramp heading northwest. Now if
you followed my advice earlier and drew the big patrol here down to get blown
up by the barrels, it should be smooth sailing (excuse the pun) with no
enemies in sight until you reach the gate in the road.
At the gate, hide behind the corner and lure the guy just inside over with a
whistle. Perform a corner takedown on him and then head inside. Enter the
stalking zone on the left of the street. Work your way behind the hut to the
left. Now watch your mini-map and then race across the open area to the
haystack below the wooden wall to the northwest when no one is looking. Again
when nobody is looking, hop out of the haystack, climb the wooden supports to
the top of the wall and enter the stalking zone behind the short fence.
Move to the right and whistle one of the two guards standing in front of the
tents over to you. Assassinate him from the bush. Now sprint past the tents on
the opposite side from where the guards are standing and enter the bush on the
far side. From here sneak out and kill the other guard.
From just in front of the tents here, you should be able to make out an open
gate to the north, with a ship anchored behind it. If you turn on eagle vision
at this point whilst looking through the gate, you will identify your target.
However, as soon as you have spotted him he will run off and sail away whilst
he sicks his guards on you. Either ignore them entirely or hit them with a
smoke bomb and perform a leap of faith off the same tree branches the target
used to escape. We�ll land in the water below. The Jackdaw will pull up
shortly after. Climb aboard and get behind the wheel.
=====================
Part 2: Pursuit
=====================
We�ll now have to chase down the target�s ship. After a short distance, it
will create a blockage, forcing you out to the right around the rocky structure
here. From this point on we just need to avoid the incoming fire as best we
can whilst keeping the target within range. You can attempt to hit him with
your forward cannons, but it may not always be possible and they won�t do a
whole lot of damage anyway.
As you follow him out into the bay, be sure to use the swivel gun to destroy
the multitude of fire barrels that are left in your path and do your best to
manoeuvre around his mortars. Once you reach the open water, a battle will
begin.
=====================
Part 3: Naval Battle
=====================
As you reach the open water, you will be joined by four frigates which will
immediately engage our target. Hold back for a short time to have them duke it
out a little. Eventually you will be drawn into the fight by the target. I�ve
noticed that the Spanish and British ships will not engage you in combat
during this fight unless you attack them first. This means it is essentially
five on one. When attacking the target with your heavy shots/broadsides make
absolutely sure that you do not hit one of the other ships or they will all
turn on you and make things a lot more difficult.
When you have reduced the target ship�s health to a low enough level, move in
close to it and hold down the button to initiate the boarding procedure.
=====================
Part 4: Assassinate
=====================
During the boarding, use one of the lifts on the Jackdaw�s decks to reach one
of the platforms up on the masts and use this to jump across to the mast of
the target ship. Whilst above the deck of the enemy ship, equip a rope dart,
highlight our assassination target and hit him with the rope dart. Hold down
the button and walk backwards off the boom to hang him.
This will complete the optional objective and the mission.

\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Stay out of combat during the infiltration section of the mission. |
\ |
\ 02. Use two guards as human shields. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Identify
=====================
From the start of the mission, work your way over to the green circle on the
map indicating the investigation area. You�ll notice that it is in and around
the large church in the centre of town. Work your way to the eastern wall of
the compound and work your way along the rooftops just outside the wall. Kill
the gunner on the rooftop here as you go. When you see the fountain in the
church�s garden area, use your Eagle vision to peek at the group of soldiers
to its left. You�ve found your target.
=====================
Part 2: Tailing
=====================
Hide out of view for a few moments and the entourage will start off. Backtrack
across the rooftops along the wall, keeping the targets in sight. Climb the
ladder at the end of the row of rooftops and turn to the left on top. Stay on
the rooftops and follow the group around the next corner. After a short while
they will stop and kill some people in the street. Hold back here for a second
and wait for them to start moving again.
Hop over to the right hand side of the street now and follow them again. There
is a gunner on the first raised section of the roof here, so either put him to
sleep or sneak up and assassinate him quietly. From this platform look further
ahead to see another gunner on a rooftop on the right of the street ahead. Put
him to sleep. Making sure you keep your eye on the target, move over and
assassinate the sleeping guard. Continue to follow the guards along the
rooftop and when you reach the final roof, there is one more enemy to deal
with on the main rooftop and a final gunner on the lower roof to the right at
the far end.
At this point, observe the group below. Your target will enter the fort.
=====================
Part 3: Infiltrate
=====================
Note that at this point the first secondary objective to remain out of combat
begins.
On the rooftop where we are located, run over to the left hand corner of the
rooftop closest to the fort, we�ll see a small beam sticking out below. Drop
down to this and use it to hop into the tree nearby, use the branches to reach
the wall of the fort. Climb all the way to the top. Hang from the ledge here
until the guard moves away. When this happens, quickly jump up and assassinate
him.
Now we are in a slightly open area with ramparts on either side - going to the
left and right if you look at the centre of the area and of course they each
have a guard patrolling them. We can�t deal with both at once, so put one to
sleep when he comes into range (I chose the left one) and stalk and kill the
guard patrolling to the right. Go and kill the sleeping guard.
Now from about halfway down the right hand wall overlooking the central
courtyard you �ll find a stack of crates. Stand next to these so that any
remaining enemies further on the right will not see you and look into the
courtyard below. Wait for the target to come near you and as soon as he is in
range perform an air assassination on him for a cut-scene.
If you managed to make it through that part without any guards engaging you in
combat, you�ll complete the optional objective at this point.
=====================
Part 4: Fight
=====================
We�ll now have to fight a �boss� like battle against a fairly tough, armoured
enemy. He has a health bar that will appear in the top left corner of the
screen. Note that your swords or hidden blade will not damage him. Instead,
you will have to shoot him with your pistols. Fun! The worst part is that if
you have the stock standard pistols, you�ll not have enough ammo to take him
down without scavenging for more.
This fight is also an opportunity for you to earn the second optional
objective � use two enemies as a human shield. During the fight with the main
boss-man, you�ll be attacked by 3-4 guards in the courtyard here. Try to focus
on countering and throwing them without damaging them until you have managed
to successfully earn the optional objective. If you end up killing them, find
the stairs and run up to the ramparts to alert more enemies. Keep going until
you have your two human shield kills. Once that is done, kill them all off so
that you can focus on the main threat.
As mentioned before, our main target is only vulnerable to bullets. As such,
keep unloading into him whilst dodging his axe attacks when he gets in close.
I found the easiest way was to cut laps around the battlements at the top of
the area. Shooting him twice, hitting the shoot button once more to start a
reload and then run off. When the reload is done, turn and fire off two shots
again. Rinse and repeat, easy!
If you run out of ammo (and it�s pretty much inevitable) some ammo crates
around the area will be brought to your attention � they have green objective
markers. Get away from the boss and interact with them to refill your ammo.
Unfortunately, I was only able to do this once and it seems that they are a
little buggy as they want you to be anonymous which is pretty much impossible
in this situation. As such, if you can break line of sight with your aggressor,
go and loot the bodies of the fallen guards to restock.
Once you have shot him up enough a scene will play.
=====================
Part 5: Escape
=====================
After the scene has run its course, hop over the wall into the water and
escape the area. Find a hiding spot and when it is all clear, a new waypoint
marker will appear. Head over here and speak with your buddies. As you do the
sequence will be completed.

\_____________________________________________________________________|
After the previous mission, check out the world map and sail over to the
objective marker outside of Long bay to begin the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Explore
=====================
After the introduction, hop off the ship and swim to shore. Work your way up
to the green waypoint marker and follow the dirt path inland. Continue along
the path until you reach the open area below on the right. At this point, the
game will pan the camera over to show you some guards in the area below.
At the end of the path is a raised rocky outcropping that we can use to jump
to a tree branch. Follow the path through the trees here and continue up the
river until you reach the next green waypoint marker. Now continue to do the
same for the next couple of green waypoint markers. You can use the paths
through the trees or follow the ground route to continue through each
successive area until you reach the restricted area on the mini-map.
=====================
Part 2: Rescue
=====================
At this point, we are able to continue through to the next area whilst ignoring
the enemies about, however if we do this, we�ll miss out on the first optional
objective for the mission � freeing guardian captives. There are three groups
of these prisoners and all are found within the next short segment of the
level.
Just to the left of the cave in which you�ll find the first objective marker
in the restricted area there is a small burning village across a shallow lake.
Sneak over here, then creep up and dispatch the guards before interacting with
the guardians to free them.
Return across the water and go to the objective marker. Follow the path to the
top and when you reach the ledge look down below to see the second group of
captives. Wait for the patrolling guard to walk off before dropping down and
dealing with the gunners. Chase down the patroller to kill him too and then
free the hostages.
Drop down to the floor of the main area and make your way towards the
objective marker. When you see a large log above creating a raised bridge,
keep an eye on the right hand wall for some exposed wooden supports. Climb up
to the top of the cliff here. Now hang from the ledge and look to the left.
Wait for the patrolling guard to walk into sight, walk over and eliminate him
quietly. Now walk into the cave where he emerged from, sneak up and double
assassinate the gunners in here. Turn and eliminate the final patrolling guard
nearby. Now we can free the final group of guardians.
Exit the cave to the main area and follow the objective markers until you
reach the observatory. Go through the open door to find yourself inside.
=====================
Part 3: Explore
=====================
After the first guard is vaporised in front of your eyes, you will now have
been introduced to the power of the observatory. Essentially white light is
bad! Avoid at all costs or you will be sent back to the previous checkpoint.
The first part of the Observatory�s interior is a platforming section. Move up
to the cliff and climb the blocks that appear. Jump across to the rectangular
platform with the guards at the far end when it is safe to do so. Dispatch the
hostiles here and then leap across the small gap to the vertical platforms on
the left hand side of the room.
Climb these moving vertical blocks using the handholds available and the
platforms that move up and down. When you reach the top of these blocks, leap
across to the stone beam in the centre of the room and use this to access to
the platform with the doorway opposite the entrance to the room.
=====================
Part 4: Fight
=====================
Continue through the hallway until we reach a circular platform. There will be
a number of guards here waiting for us. On a raised platform on the opposite
side of a cliff is our main target. Unfortunately we can�t do much about him
just yet.
If you look down at the platform we are on, you should also notice the grooves
on the floor dividing the platform into three. During this fight, the grooves
on the floor will light up shortly before encasing an entire segment of the
floor with the white death light. We�ll want to avoid that! As such, keep one
eye on the floor during the fight to prevent any premature trips back to the
previous checkpoint.
In this room, you should also note that this fight is the only time in the
entire mission where you are able to complete the second optional objective �
killing four enemies using the Observatory�s defences. To do this, wait for
the white light to appear, then counter an enemy attack with a throw. Direct
them into the light to kill them instantly. Repeat four times to complete the
objective.
=====================
Part 5: Assassinate
=====================
Once the enemies in the immediate area have been cleared out, it�s time for a
little platforming action. Hop across to the series of raised rocky blocks to
the left of the fight platform and use these to reach the tall pillar in the
centre of the room. Climb to the top of this and leap across to the far wall.
Manoeuvre down and underneath the platform with our target on it and climb up
the wall of the far side � watch out for the white light which activates
periodically.
When you reach the top of the room, you will be on a pillar overlooking the
platform with the target. Target him and perform an air assassination to
complete the sequence.

Introduction:
______________
There are four Templar hunt side-mission chains in the game and they can be
undertaken at any time after sequence 4A �This Old Cove�. Every one of these
four chains involves a small, four-memory sequence with Edward assisting a
different assassin through a brief side-narrative and upon completion of each,
you will earn a Templar Key.
There are five of these to collect in total. Earning all five Templar Keys will
allow you to unlock the Templar Armour which is located in the mansion
overlooking the cove in Great Inagua.
Templar Hunt Rewards:
__________________________
> Collecting all 5 keys allows you to unlock the templar armour.
> Completing the first of the four chains will unlock the
achievement/trophy 'Help a Brother Out'.

Opia�s short side-story, unlike the other Templar hunt missions, takes place
over a number of different locations. As such, it is probably advisable to
travel to each of the following places (Cayman Sound, Grand Cayman, Pinos Isle)
first to activate fast travel points to reduce travel time. When you are good
to go, travel to Grand Cayman and speak with her at the Assassin�s symbol
icon.
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] The Taino Assassin [STH01A][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Cayman Sound |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
The first mission for Opia focuses on hunting. Essentially you need to beat
her by acquiring more pelts than she does within the time limit specified.
Once the mission starts, green investigation zones will appear on the map.
We need to run over to these to find prey to hunt. Whilst inside the zones,
activate eagle vision to have animals appear bright red. When you k now where
they are, simply shoot them from afar are sneak up and assassinate them before
skinning.
You will have to repeat this process another 2-3 times, so keep at it! Whilst
you hunt, note that Opia is also hunting animals so don�t be surprised if she
occasionally runs in and steals your kills from under your nose. If this
happens, don�t fret, just head to the next location immediately to get the
jump on her.
Once you have killed and skinned enough animals, you will be ambushed by a
white jaguar. Quickly hit the in-screen button prompts to shake it off, then
pull out your pistol and shoot it as it runs away (or chase it down and
assassinate it).
Killing the white jaguar will complete the first memory.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------

/ \
] Templar Ships [STH01B][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Grand Cayman |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
After the previous chapter, we�ll have to sail over to Grand Cayman. When you
arrive, you�ll find Opia on the docks. Speak with her to begin the next
mission.
After beginning the mission, follow her as she walks along the dock. When she
stops a green objective marker will appear in the distance. Head over here and
as you arrive you�ll notice a green zone on the map. Enter this and use eagle
vision to locate your next target.
There are three persons of interest here and we�ll need to eavesdrop on them
as they proceed a short distance along the wooden walkways. Follow behind the
group at a safe distance (but still within the confines of the green
eavesdropping area of course!) and move between the conveniently positioned
groups of people along the set path to mingle and become invisible when the
targets stop and look around.
When they split up, follow the guy marked with the orange objective marker and
pickpocket him to complete the memory.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Right-hand Man [STH01C][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Grand Cayman |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
Again we�ll be on Grand Cayman for this sequence and again it will begin with
Edward having to follow Opia at a leisurely pace along a short set path.
Eventually she will come to a door and advise you to hide. As such hop into
the stack of palm fronds nearby and watch.
The guy we wanted to speak to will run off. Sprint after him until you reach
the docks and he will escape on a boat. Quickly run over and board the Jackdaw
and sail after him. As you chase the hostile vessel be ready to shoot the
barrels that it drops behind.
When you catch up with the other ship, attack it and initiate a boarding
sequence. During this, kill the target to complete the mission.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] The Trail of Lucia Marquez [STH01D][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Pinos Isle |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
After the previous chapter, we�ll have to sail over to Pinos Isle. When you
arrive, you�ll find Opia at the assassin icon in the shallows at the very
southwest corner of the map. Speak with her to begin the next mission.
As we begin, we�ll need to tail the guard ahead down the beach a short way and
then up the dirt path to the left that climbs the nearby hill past one set of
ruins before entering a second ruin area. There is no shortage of stalking
zone shrubs along the path that he takes you through, so you should have no
trouble staying behind him and out of sight. He will stop three times, but as
long as you keep to the bushes, he won�t have a clue that you are there.
When he enters the second set of ruins, your objectives will update and you�ll
be permitted to kill him as well as the group of four guards on the lower
section of the temple below. There are several powder kegs and barrels around
the location of the guard group, so feel free to shoot those first to thin out
the numbers before attacking.
Once the marked guards have all been killed, quickly hide in a shrub nearby if
you are able (if not, it�s all good but perhaps a little more difficult). A
second group of enemies will rush down to attack you from the stairs to the
north east. Again, shoot the barrels along the path if there are some left
to drop a few of the bad guys before they can reach you. Kill off any
survivors.
After dispatching the second group, our target will appear nearby indicated
with a red objective marker. Quickly chase her down and shoot/assassinate her
to complete the mission and Opia�s Templar hunt side-mission.

Rhona is an assassin in residence in Havana. Her side-missions consist of four
short memory sequences that will take place entirely within the city�s
confines, so there is no excessive travel involved. To make things even
quicker, you can climb and synchronise all of the viewpoints to get around
in a much more effcient matter via fast travel.
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Bureau Under Attack [STH02A][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Havana |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
You will find Rhona at the Assassin�s bureau in the south of Havana. Approach
her to begin the first memory.
This memory is a short, simple one and is all about defending our friend and
keeping her health bar from emptying. Essentially you will have to fend off
four waves of enemies, each consisting of complements of between six to nine
enemies. There are three entry points to the bureau and during each of the
first three waves two enemies will enter from each entrance. The fourth and
final wave mixes things up a bit and has three enemies enter from each access
point.
It�s not all grim though, as there is a quicker way to fight off the enemies.
Between waves, you are able to grab powder kegs and drop them by an entrance.
Shoot the barrel when a group of enemies moves past it during the next attack
phase and you�ll clean a third of them out without a fight!
Following the fourth wave, the memory will be completed.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] A Thief in the Market [STH02B][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Havana |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
After the introduction, you need to head to the north and find the market area
indicated by the large green circle on the map.
Once you arrive, enter the green zone and turn on eagle vision. Look around
until you spot the pickpocket target that we are after. As you do, the target
will run off. Chase him down and tackle/assassinate/kill him. Loot or
pickpocket him whilst he is down to complete the mission.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Arms Race [STH02C][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Havana |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
This mission is a series of three, sneak/fight your way into a restricted area
and blow up target barrel mini-missions. Once the mission has begun look at
the Havana map. You will see that there are there are three new restricted
areas here now, each of which has a green objective marker associated
indicating a gunpowder store that we need to destroy.
The goal at each of these locations is simply to detonate the glowing crates;
you can do this by sneaking in using your stealth techniques, or alternatively
walk in in full sight, murder all of the enemies in sight and then shoot the
barrels as easy as you please.
The quickest and easiest way I found to do this mission is to make your way to
each location via the streets, then when you are just outside of the restricted
zones, climb to the roof. Put any gunners that you encounter out of commission
as you move towards the green objective marker, then drop down next to the
barrels, shoot them to blow them up and then quickly return to the rooves to
escape.
Repeat the process for all three zones and once all three of the target
barrels of powder have been blown up, the mission will be complete.

] Flint's End [STH02D][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Havana |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
The final of Rhona�s Templar hunt missions is a fairly brief one. To begin
with, we need to follow Rhona through the streets for a short while until just
you reach the docks. At this point, a large group of enemies will be on the
map ahead of you. Including the assassination target.
Allow Rhona to move up by herself and engage them from cover. If you move up
to help her she will immediately start losing health and die very quickly.
Instead, we need to let her distract the guards whilst we sneak in from behind.
As such, when she moves up, stay back and dive over the wall into the water
below.
Swim down the left hand side of the boat here and when you reach the back,
turn to the right and stealth swim over to the wall below the dock. Climb up
at the closest point to the assassination target marker (the red circle on
the map), hop over the wall and perform a sprinting assassination on the bad
guy.
After the scene has run its course, hop over the wall into the water and
escape the area. Find a hiding spot and when it is all clear the mission will
be complete.

Anto resides in the game�s second major city � Kingston. His side-mission
consists of four short memory sequences, and as with Rhona�s Templar hunt
mission, his tasks will all take place within the city itself. To speed up
getting around during the various missions, it is always a good idea to
synchronise all of the viewpoints so that you can fast travel across the zone.
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] The Maroon Assassin [STH03A][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Kingston |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
You will find Anto for the first time in the south central part of the
Kingston city area. Approach him to begin the first memory.
Once the mission begins, run straight down the street until we find a pair of
guards marked with objective markers. We want to eavesdrop on these fellows.
Trail them down the street, remaining relatively close and using the corners
of the buildings and crates on the sides of the street as cover to remain
hidden for when they turn around. When they reach the tavern the eavesdropping
sequence will end.
At this point, a second orange marker will appear on your map to the northeast.
Head over here to find another pair of guards that we will need to eavesdrop
on. Fortunately, this area is quite heavily populated, so you can use the
crowds as well as crates as cover whilst you follow the targets to make things
even easier, you can hire some dancers on the way and follow them out in the
open.
After a short distance, the guards will split up and run in different
directions. Choose one and chase him down and tackle him to complete the
mission.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Recruiting Maroons [STH03B][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Kingston |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
This mission is essentially a whole bunch of those pirate rescue mini-missions
that you may have seen and attempted scattered across the main cities during
your travels. To complete these tasks, you need to approach each group of
captives (marked as blue circles on the mini-map) without being spotted, deal
with the guards at these locations and then interact with the prisoners to
free them. As a bonus, Anto will come along for the ride, so be sure to stay
in close proximity to him or you risk desynchronising.
The first captive is being held at gunpoint in a fenced compound. As you
approach, follow the fence around to the right and climb the small building
here. From the top perform an air assassination on the two guards with guns
on the captive below. Free the captive and leave the compound.
The second captive you come across will be walking down the street with a five
guard escort. Run up and sprint assassinate two guards from behind with a
double assassination and then finish off the survivors. Finally free the
prisoner.
The final captive, like the first is in a fenced off restricted zone. Approach
from the south and climb onto the hut to the right of the guarded entrance.
From here, air assassinate the guard with the prisoner on the inside of the
compound and then free the prisoner to end the mission.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________

] Under Attack [STH03C][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Kingston |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
This memory is a short, simple one and it is all about preventing Anto from
dying during combat. If you have done Rhona�s �Bureau Under Attack� Templar
hunt mission, this one is extremely similar.
Essentially you will have to fend off four waves of enemies, each consisting
of complements of between six to nine enemies. There are three entry points
to the bureau and during each of the three waves, three enemies will enter
from each direction.
Between waves, the game gives you an opportunity to make the next segment a
little easier. You are given 30 seconds before the next attack during which
you are able to run over to where the enemies come from and take a group of
them down before the next assault begins if you so wish. Anto will do this
by himself, so you�ll already be facing a reduced amount. As such, if you are
not feeling adventurous, you can stay put and take them all on at once, it�s
entirely up to you.
Following the third wave, the memory will be completed.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] The Commander's Ruse [STH03D][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Kingston |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
As you begin this mission, we will need to tail the target marked with the
orange objective marker a short way down the street. Hit Eagle vision to tag
him and follow. He will walk straight past a group of dancers, so hire them
and follow behind him at a slow pace, using the dancer group as cover.
Continue to follow the guards until they enter the restricted area compound.
Now that the tailing sequence is over, we need to infiltrate the compound,
locate the target and assassinate him. If you take a quick look at your map
you will notice that there are three green circles in the compound indicating
potential locations of the assassination target.
Each time I played this mission, the target appeared in the same place � the
north-eastern corner of the restricted area. Run over to this area outside of
the wall and enter the open (and strangely unguarded) gate on the eastern
wall close to the northern most point of the restricted area. At this point,
get into cover behind the corner so that you look inside the compound and
activate eagle vision to identify the target.
Now from cover, equip your pistol and line up a headshot on the assassination
target. Shoot him for a scene.
After the scene has run its course, exit the compound and escape the area.
Find a hiding spot and when it is all clear the mission will be complete.

Vance is the local assassin in the pirate settlement of Nassau. His quests,
like the others before it take place over four short memory sequences that
take place within the city limits. Again, I advise that you synchronise all
viewpoints in the area before starting the chain to have quicker travel times
and have the map uncovered.

] Oh Bother... [STH04A][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Nassau |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
The first mission can be started by speaking with the assassin in central
Nassau.
Once the mission begins, run across the nearby marketplace and find the persons
of interest marked with the orange objective markers. We want to eavesdrop on
these fellows. Follow them down the street to the west of the market using the
crowds, benches and market stalls as cover from detection. When they head west
away from the market and down the hill, hop up on the rooftops to the right of
the road and tail them from above. When they enter a small alleyway the
tailing section will be complete.
Head over to the far side of the roof overlooking the open area below and use
eagle vision to identify the new target. Use the tree at the northern end of
the roof and follow its branches to the end. From here, look below and wait
for the target to pass beneath us. When he does, highlight him and perform an
air assassination to end the mission.

] The Other Brother [STH04A][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Start Location: Nassau |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
As we begin this second memory, we will need to follow our friend for a short
distance whilst he drops some backstory on us. When he stops, enter the
stalking zone marked with the green objective marker nearby.
After a few moments, we need to start tailing the two persons of interest here.
Quickly tag them from the bush. During the next tailing sequence, the targets
will stop periodically during which point a thief will show up and try to
pickpocket our friend. We need to kill the thieves stealthily as being
detected will cause desynchronisation, as will allowing the thief to steal
from our buddy.
The first place the conversation will stop is at the marketplace a short
distance from the bush we are hiding in. Quickly hop the fence to the left and
run to the far north-western corner of the marketplace. Hide behind the last
stall to the left. The thief will stand next to this briefly during his
passage across the market, so perform a corner assassination on him at this
point.
The tailing targets will then start moving again. They will stop to the east
of some gallows. At this point, run over and take cover behind the front of
the gallows at the western side (just behind the guards). Corner assassinate
the second thief here.
Hire the dancers just in front of the gallows and follow the targets down the
next street. Enter the second alleyway to the left and kill the thief as he
appears. Afterwards quickly return to the street before you are spotted near
the body.
Return to the tailing targets nearby. After a short exchange they will split
up. Continue to follow the fellow marked with the objective marker. After he
goes around the corner to the left, take cover behind the wall of the building
he just walked past and then when he moves on follow him a little further
until an eavesdrop begins.
Use the crowds here and the well in the centre of the area to stay out of
sight whilst the conversation plays out.
After the conversation a timer will appear and an objective marker will appear
nearby. Sprint over to the green zone marked by the objective marker as
quickly as possible. When you reach the main street, turn on eagle vision and
look to the north to identify your assassination target. Now move up and kill
him within the time limit to complete the mission.

Immediately after beginning the mission you will find yourself in the midst
of a bar fight. Fight off your attackers whilst also attempting to keep your
friend safe from harm. You�ll need to incapacitate around 8-10 hostile patrons
before the fight ends.
After the bar fight, you will need to escort your friend through the streets
of Nassau for a little while whilst keeping him out of harm�s way. After a
minute or so, you will come across a group of dancers. Walk over to them and
pay them so that our friend will continue moving.
He will stop again as we make our way down a fairly main street. At this point
you will be attacked by three guards. Again do your best to keep them away
from our escort and eliminate them.
After another brief conversation the memory will be complete.

\ Start Location: Nassau |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
Upon starting this mission, we will need to find the assassination target who
is hiding somewhere in the swamp area marked by the giant green circle on the
map. To save time, his location is at co-ordinates (634,784). To approach
this, I advise following the swamp to the south from the start point and using
the treetop paths or follow the edge of the swamp all the way around until
you reach a large log bridge leading to the camp at the co-ordinates listed.
Instead of crossing the bridge, enter the stalking zone to the left. Wait
until the guy loading the boat on the opposite side of the river turns away
and run over and hide in the stalking zone there. Kill him when her patrols
back again. Run up the hill and hide to the left of the crates, lean out from
behind the corner here with eagle vision on to identify the target.
Sneak over and stab him, or shoot the barrel of gunpowder at his feet, or even
shoot him in the head if you like. Whatever you choose to do to kill him, once
the deed is done a scene will play.
Following the scene, chase down and shoot/assassinate the next target for
another cut-scene.
After the scene has run its course, exit the restricted zone. Find a hiding
spot and when it is all clear the mission will be complete.

Introduction:
______________
There are 30 assassin contracts in Assassin�s Creed IV: Black Flag and all of
them have you hunting down and killing a specific target in a series of
different locations. For each assassination contract you fulfil, you will earn
1000 Reales, with some of the trickier contracts giving a bonus of an
additional 500 Reales if the assassination is carried out without the player
entering combat beforehand.
Assassin contracts are first introduced during memory sequence five and
following this, they can be accessed and initiated from pigeon coops marked
with a skull icon located all across the Caribbean.
Hints and Tips:
_______________
> Staying out of combat refers to doing so before attacking the target.
Defending yourself afterwards will not affect the rewards.
> The easiest way to kill each target without entering combat is to
identify them and then shoot them with a headshot from a stalking zone
or outside of the restricted area they reside in.
Assassin Contract Rewards:
__________________________
> For completing all of the assassin contracts you will unlock the pistol
swords.
> For completing half of the assassin contracts you will earn the
Assassin�s stealth outfit.
Assassin Contract Shortcuts:

After accepting the contract, a skull marker (which indicates our
assassination target�s whereabouts) will appear on the map within a rectangular
restricted area zone surrounding the small plantation directly to our north.
Make your way over to the restricted zone and climb onto the roof of the house
across the street directly south of the plantation. From here, we can look over
the plantations walls and turn on eagle vision to identify our target.
Drop down from the roof and enter the sugarcane fields here. Use whistles to
lure the three patrolling guards into the fields and assassinate them one at a
time.
Afterwards, go and climb the stone wall to the plantation. Shimmy along until

Upon accepting this contract, a red skull will appear on the map on the coast
to the east of Ambergris Key. Sail over here and dock with the shipwreck to
dive underwater.
Leave the diving bell and make for the cave entrance in front of us. Avoid the
jellyfish as much as possible and continue through the tunnel here until we
reach the air pocket. Surface here. There is a chest at the bottom of the
room here so dive down and grab that, re surface to refill your air supply and
then dive back under and take the next tunnel.
Follow this tunnel all the way to the end, steering clear of the jellyfish
that occupy the area as you go. When you reach the end of the tunnel, surface
and you will find an air pocket and a room with some ruins in it ahead. Peek
into the room and look up on the ruins to the right there are a pair of guards
here. Swim over to the wall beneath them and climb the pillar for an Animus
fragment.
Drop back into the water and mosey on over to the stairs on the left hand side
of the ruin. Climb the broken pillar all the way to the top, being sure to
stay out of sight of the guards. . Wait for the patroller to walk off before
hopping up and assassinating the stationary guard. Hide behind the door frame
and corner assassinate the patroller when he comes back. When the patrolling
guard comes back, deal with him as you see fit.
Enter the tunnel and turn right at the end, pull up behind one of the pillars
near the corner and use eagle vision to identify the target. Hit him with a
knife or a sprinting assassination to complete the contract with the bonus.
Now that we are here, we may as well grab the rest of the loot from the area.
Note that we no longer have to remain hidden as we have already collected our
reward from the contract upon killing our target. There are three groups of
enemies in this room so do with them as you deem appropriate.
There are two chests, one on the north side and one on the south side. Around
halfway down the room, you�ll find a hole in the wall high up on the central
structure. Climb up into this to find an Animus shard. In a small alcove
opposite the door we came in from is another pair of guards. Deal with them
and loot the corpse for a treasure map (Plan- Elite heavy Shot 307,195 �
Misteriosa).
With that, we�ve finished off this smuggler�s den/diving location. Find the
ramp leading out of the room, and dive into the water below. Head over to the
Jackdaw to continue.

Introduction:
______________
There are 15 naval contracts in Assassin�s Creed IV: Black Flag and all of
them have you performing various tasks in the Jackdaw. These objectives range
from destroying target ships, plundering various materials from enemy ships,
engaging in large scale naval battles and escorting friendlies.
Naval contracts become available once you completed the 'The Forts' mission in
Memory sequence 05. Additional missions will be unlocked as you liberate forts
throughout the Caribbean. The naval contracts appear on fort docks and are
marked by a circular skull icon.
Hints and Tips:
_______________
> Upon starting each contract, the game will give you a difficulty rating
you should upgrade your ship as much as possible before taking on the
higher difficutly missions.
> Upgrade your mortars and mortar storage. These are hands-down the most
deadly weapon in your arsenal and if utilised correctly can deal large
amounts of damage or sink most ships before they even get close to you.
Naval Contract Rewards:
__________________________
> For completing all of the assassin contracts you will unlock the Golden
flintlock Pistols.
> For completing all of the Naval contracts, you will unlock the 'Sea
Legs' achievement/trophy.
Naval Contract Shortcuts:
____________________________
As there are 15 missions and I am aware that due to the sandbox nature of
the title, players can start just about anywhere, below I have listed some
shorcuts to allow you to quickly jump down to the specific Contract mission

\--------------------\-----------------------\----------------------------|
\ > 1800 Reales. \ > 3/5 \ > Castillo de Jagua |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ship that we
need to destroy. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone to the southwest. Sail over here and pull out your
spyglass to identify the target ship (I found it at co-ordinates: 255,425).
As we approach, the ship will not become hostile until we attack, so take the
opportunity to get in very close and use the usual heavy shot/broadside
combination to dish out some hefty straight up damage. Afterwards continue to
whittle away its health until it is ready to board. At this point, you should
focus on destroying the gunboat that was escorting the target (if you haven�t
already).
Once the target vessel has been damaged sufficiently to have it incapacitated,
approach it and begin boarding. During boarding, we�ll have to kill 15 of the
hostile ship�s crew members and 2 powder stores on the deck. Doing so will
complete the contract.

\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
Once the mission begins, hop in the Jackdaw and sail over to the location on
the map marked by the green objective marker. As you arrive a short cut-scene
will play.
When you regain control, we�ll see a brig and four gunships sail past. Quickly
use the mortar when you regain control to damage the gunship (and potentially
take out a gunship or two) before it gets in too close. Following that, move
in to engage them in battle using the usual circling and broadside/heavy shot
tactics to deal with the threats. Note that due to the narrow section of the
channel here, a well-placed broadside can easily damage or sink 2-3 of the
gunships at once. Try to focus on sinking the gunships first before turning
your attention to the brig.
Once the brig has been damaged sufficiently to have it incapacitated, approach
it and begin boarding. During boarding, we�ll have to kill 10 of the crew
members. Doing so will complete the contract.

\ Rewards: \ Difficulty: \ Start Location: |
\--------------------\-----------------------\----------------------------|
\ > 1200 Reales. \ > 1/5 \ > Eleuthera |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
This is a fairly simple and straightforward contract that does not require any
real advanced upgrades or too much skill behind the wheel of the Jackdaw as
you only need to take down three Spanish gunboats. The problem with this
mission is finding the Spanish gunboats to begin with as the game will not
place any objective markers for you on the map.
To do this, you want to cut large laps around the Eleuthera fort, using your
spyglass to look at every ship you come across and engage and destroy three
Spanish gunships.
Note that the first time I tried this contract I could find no Spanish ships
anywhere, instead there were nothing but British vessels around during 15
minutes of intense searching. At this point I exited to the main menu and
reloaded the save and lo and behold there were Spanish ships this time! As
such, if you have a similar problem, try re-loading to see if it helps you
out.
Upon sinking the third ship, the contract will be finished.

\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
This contract asks us to bring the merchant 60 Wood. If you have spare wood on
you upon commencement of the mission, you can hand it in right away to
complete the contract on the spot. If not, we�ll need to do some plundering.
To prevent any unnecessary conflict, as you cruise around the nearby area,
pull out Edward�s spyglass and zoom in and out to identify ships in the area.
When focused on a vessel, the spyglass will give you information about any
cargo they might be carrying. Find a ship that is transporting some wood,
attack it and board it to earn the materials. For 60 wood, you may need to
board multiple ships in order to accumulate a sufficient amount.
Once you have 60 wood, return to the contract giver on the dock in Cabo de
Cruz to complete the contract.

As with the Driftwood contract (if you have done it already) this contract
asks us to bring the merchant contract giver some materials, in this case 20
silk. If you have spare silk on you upon commencement of the mission, you can
hand it in right away to complete the contract on the spot. If not, we�ll have
to sail out into the nearby area to do some plundering.
To prevent any unnecessary conflict, as you cruise around the nearby area,

\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
This is a fairly simple and straightforward contract � we need to find, attack
and sink a Spanish frigate and two brigs. The problem with this mission is
finding the Spanish gunboats to begin with as the game will not place any
objective markers for you on the map.
To do this, similarly to the �Spanish Plague� mission earlier, you want to cut
large laps around the Chinchorro fort, using your spyglass to look at every
ship you come across and engage and destroy the quota of the target vessels
we are after.
Upon sinking all three ships, the contract will be finished.

\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ship that
we need to protect. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone to the northwest. Sail over here and pull out your
spyglass to identify the target ship (I found it at co-ordinates: 146, 780).
As we approach, the ship will be at around half health and be taking fire from
a pair of hostile gunboats. Sail in quick and use a broadside or chase cannons
to take them out as quickly as possible. As the second ship sinks, another
three will appear on the horizon to the north. Use mortars to target them as
they approach and when they get in close, use the usual heavy shot/broadside
combination to make short work of them.
Again, as we sink those hostile vessels another group will approach, this time
from the east. It consists of a pair of brigs and two schooners. Again, use
the mortars as they approach and try to eliminate the weaker schooners first
before focusing on the larger brigs.
Once this final group of ships has been dealt with the contract will be
complete.
----------------------------------NEXT MISSION---------------------------------

\ > 1800 Reales. \ > 4/5 \ > Navassa |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ship that we
need to destroy. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone to the southeast. Sail over here and just to the
south of the larger island south of Ile a Vache, you�ll find a group of three
brigs. (I found them at co-ordinates: 825,112). These are the ship�s escort
and we need to eliminate them to draw the target ship out.
Attack these ships and they separate form one another and will sail along the
coast to the north. Follow them and take them down. Once they have been boarded
or sunk (you call), the target ship � a big man o� war will appear on the map
just to the south of the Ile a Vache (and just to the north of the island we
chased the three brigs around.
Sail over to meet it. Now the man o� war can be a little tricky as it will not
only fire off mortars at you, that you�ll need to avoid, but if you get in too
close it also has some very powerful broadside/heavy shot attacks. As such,
try to keep your distance a little and try to find an advantageous angle
whilst doing your best to stay out of range of its attacks.
Once the brig has been damaged sufficiently to have it incapacitated, approach
it and begin boarding. During boarding, we�ll have to kill 20 of its crew
members and assassinate the captain. Doing so will complete the contract.

\ Rewards: \ Difficulty: \ Start Location: |

\ > 2400 Reales. \ > 5/5 \ > Serranilla |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
Note: This is the final naval contract, nut for some reason it is labelled as
number 9. To accept this contract you must have finished all 14 other
naval contracts first.
Before starting, you will want to visit a harbourmaster and refill all of your
ammo � especially the mortars and heavy shot!
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ship that
we need to protect. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone to the north of the fort where we picked up the
mission from. Sail over here and pull out your spyglass to identify the target
ship (I found it at co-ordinates: 362,209).
As we approach, the ship will be at around 1/3 health and be taking fire from
a group of two schooners and two gunboats. Sail in quick, using mortars as you
approach and use a broadside or chase cannons to take them out as quickly as
possible when you arrive on scene. As the final ship of this group sinks,
another three (two brigs and a frigate) will appear on the horizon to the
northeast. Use mortars to target them as they approach (try to take down the
frigate as much as possible before it arrives) and when they get in close, use
the usual heavy shot/broadside combination to make short work of them.
Again, as we sink those hostile vessels another group will approach, this time
from the northeast. It consists of a pair of frigates and a man o� War. Again,
use the mortars as they approach and try to damage the ships as much as
possible from a distance (if you are a good shot with the mortar you should be
able to take out one frigate and dish out a nice bit of damage on the man o�
war as well) before they reach our ally.
Once this final group of ships has been dealt with the contract will be
complete.

\ > 2400 Reales. \ > 5/5 \ > Conttoyor |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and join up with our
allies who are waiting out in the open water to the north west of our current
location. They are marked by blue blips on the mini-map/world map so they
shouldn�t be too hard to locate!
As we approach the friendlies, our objectives will be updated. We will now
have to take down a Spanish convoy. To begin with, follow your buddies to the
east. Here we�ll encounter a pair of brigs. Assist your allies in taking these
down, ensuring that you watch your fire and try not to damage the friendly
vessels.
Once these two have been destroyed, another two brigs and a man o� War will
appear in the north. Sail over to meet them slowly, dropping mortars onto them
as you close the distance to them. A few well-placed mortars on the brigs will
have them just about incapacitated by the time you reach them, allowing you to
finish them off and focus on the man o� war much quicker.
The man o� war can be a little tricky as it will not only fire off mortars at
you, that you�ll need to avoid, but if you get in too close it also has some
very powerful broadside/heavy shot attacks. As such, try to keep your distance
a little and try to find an advantageous angle whilst doing your best to stay
out of range of its attacks.
Once this second group of ships has been dealt with the contract will be
complete.

\ Rewards: \ Difficulty: \ Start Location: |
\--------------------\-----------------------\----------------------------|
\ > 2400 Reales. \ > 5/5 \ > Charlotte |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
Now this naval mission may well be the trickiest in the game. You will well
and truly need to upgrade your ship to level 5-7 armour (the more the better)
and upgrade all of your weapons to as high as you can go. The goal of this
mission is to destroy two hunter ships.
To get the hunter ships to appear, we need to find and attack ships in the
nearby area until our notoriety/wanted level rises. This can be tracked by the
red crossed sword icon above your health bar in the top left corner of the
screen. By attacking ships, this will slowly fill up and when it is full a
hunter ship will appear.
Trying to do this in the Charlotte fort�s surrounding area is a death wish and
although it�s not impossible, the fact that you�ll be swarmed by groups of
frigates and a man o� war or two the as soon as you try to initiate combat
here makes it more frustrating than challenging as each tim e you die, the
wanted level will reset to what it was when you began the contract and you�ll
have to build it up again.
To make things a little easier, set a custom waypoint over near one of the
medium level forts nearby (Cabo de Cruz or Castillo de Jagua should do the
trick) and eliminate the ships around there. These ships are set at a lower
difficulty level, so you should have less trouble building up that notoriety
without it being re-set every time you desynchronise.
So once you have earned your wanted rating, engage, attack and sink two hunter
ships and the mission will be completed.

After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ship that we
need to destroy. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone to the northwest of our current location. Sail over
here and pull out your spyglass to identify the target ship (I found it at
co-ordinates: 430,340).
This ship is a man o� war that has been heavily upgraded. It has lots of
armour and high level weapons equipped � mortar, heavy shot, chase cannons
which will all cause a great deal of damage. Fortunately for us, it is a
pretty slow vessel so if you are able to keep your distance (try to stay just
at the max range for your broadside shots) and circle it for a little while
whilst avoiding the mortar fire and delivering mortars and broadsides to it
form range you should be able to damage it without too much trouble.
Once the target vessel has been damaged sufficiently to have it incapacitated,
approach it and sink it to complete the mission.

\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
Once we have accepted the contract, re-board the jackdaw and sail for the
green �investigation� circle on the map marked with the green waypoint marker
to the southeast of the Punta Guarico fort.
Once we are within the green zone, we�ll need to use our spyglass to locate
the target British fleet (I at the co-ordinates: 865,299). As you approach it,
a storm will pick up. At this point, you�ll need to take down the fleet which
consists of three brigs and two gunboats.
Fortunately, to begin with they are all bunched together, making it a good
opportunity to drop mortars on them or position a broadside attack or two to
damage multiple ships at once. After the initial exchanges, they will break
away and you�ll have to focus on them on a more individual basis. Thankfully,
due to the high seas, it is fairly easy as the British ships will not move
very quickly and the high waves will help block incoming enemy fire.
Upon sinking all five of the ships, the contract will be finished.

\ > 2400 Reales. \ > 5/5 \ > Chinchorro |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ships that
we need to destroy. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone just to the southwest of our current location � in
and around the island of Corozal. Sail down and into the inlet as if you were
going to visit Corozal and you�ll find the blockade.
The blockade is made up of two frigates, a man o� was and two gunboats. Stop
outside of the inlet and rain mortars down on them. Turn away and sail slowly
away from them, whilst looking backwards and firing mortars. When you get the
message about sailing too far from the mission area, turn back and this time
approach the blockade. You will notice that they have lost interest and are
moving back to the inlet. As such, let�s go get them!
Continue to drop mortars on the ships as you approach. When you arrive, most
of them should be destroyed or heavily damaged (depending on how accurate you
were with mortars). So it�s a simple matter of mopping up any remaining
enemies.
Board/sink all of the ships to complete the contract.

\ > 1800 Reales. \ > 4/5 \ > Navassa |
\____________________\_______________________\__________________________|
After beginning the contract, we�ll first need to go and find the ship that we
need to destroy. If you look at your map, you�ll see that there is a large,
green investigation zone just to the east of our current location. Sail over
here and use the spyglass to identify the target vessel (I found it at
co-ordinates: 764,196). Make your way over and engage it.
It is a decently built frigate, with a fair bit of armour so can dish out a
little damage as well as take it. Use mortars as you approach to drain its
health a little and then use the standard combination of chase cannon/heavy
shot/broadside to damage it into submission. As you engage the ship, it will
cause another pair of frigates nearby to come and attack you. Again, mortars
and heavy shots will win the day!
Once the target frigate has been damaged sufficiently to have it incapacitated,
approach it and either board and destroy it or fire some of your weapons to
sink it if you are in a hurry.
Either way, once the ship has been sunk, the mission will be complete.

Introduction:
______________
Forts play a big role in Assassin�s Creed IV: Black Flag. Not only do they
provide some memorable take-over sequences, but once you have captured a fort
they also grant you access to the game�s Naval Contract missions and additional
fast travel points. Additionally, and perhaps most importantly, capturing a
fort performs a similar function to synchronising a viewpoint in a city, but
instead of showing an area of a settlement, forts will reveal a large block of
the world map, showing all of the locations, treasures and collectibles in that
section of the world.
There are 11 forts in total in the game and the fort takeover missions can be
undertaken at any time after the start of sequence 5. They are classified by
the game itself as easy, medium or hard and they really do live up to their
labels!
Each of the fort takeovers occurs in essentially the same way with players
approaching via the sea, destroying the fort�s defences and then docking,
entering the fort and killing specific targets inside. The number of defences
and targets inside will change depending on the level of difficulty.
Rewards:
______________
> Liberating each fort will synchronise and uncover a portion of the world
map.
> Liberating fotrs will allow Naval Contracts to appear.
> Liberating all forts will earn the achievement/trophy �King of the
Castle�.

Once you have destroyed the fort�s defences from the sea, it�s time to take
over the fort itself. Dock in the area permitted and jump over to the beach.
Climb the stairs on the left until you reach a blocked gate. Climb the damaged
wall to the left of the gate up to the top. Here, turn to the left and climb
up again to reach a larger platform.
Use the scaffolding just to your right to reach the top of this building and
kill the officer and any other guards in the immediate area here. Afterwards,
head to the far end of this area and enter the door marked with the green
objective marker. Kill the enemy inside. This will liberate the fort.

The naval side of this fort is a fairly simple matter of unleashing broadsides
and mortars into the walls over a couple of passes of the fort. Once it is all
clear, move in and dock in the area permitted.
Climb the stairs until you reach the blocked gate. Climb the damaged wall to
the left of the gate up to the top and drop down the other side. Turn to the
right and clear out the enemies in the immediate area. If you look up the
nearby stairs you will see an official looking building ahead with a red
objective marker. Make your way towards this.
When you reach the top of the stairs, make your way to the right. Climb the
cargo and barrels that have been stacked against the wall and use them to
access the higher platform. Once up, kill off any enemy soldiers before
climbing up the next wall to reach the next platform. Kill the target and his
bodyguard here.
Now drop down to the previous platform below and enter the door marked with
the green objective marker. Kill the enemy inside. This will liberate the
fort.

Again, the defences on this fort are quite laughable and a few decent mortar
shots mixed in with a broadside/heavy shot barrage or two will knock most of
them over in no time. When the defences have been dealt with, we want to sail
over and dock in the indicated by the green beam of light.
Hop out here and follow the path. Climb the stairs until you reach the blocked
gate. Climb this up to the top and drop down the other side. Turn to the right
and make tracks for the building ahead with the red objective marker killing
any enemies that try to block your path.
When you reach the building use wall run to climb up the door and grab the
wooden beam above. Enter the window here. Turn right and clear out the balcony
through the next doorway. Climb up the cages stacked against the wall and use
them to access the higher platform. Once up, climb up to the roof.
From the roof, move over to the paved area with the garden nearby and move to
the edge where the red objective marker is. Highlight the target and hit the
assassinate button to perform an air assassination. Afterwards, climb back up
and enter the door marked with the green objective marker. Kill the enemy
inside. This will liberate the fort.

Now this fort�s sea based defences are not that strong, however the conditions
on the water are a little tricky, making dodging that mortar fire and placing
accurate shots a little tricker. Each time I have attacked this fort I have
encountered a storm, very strong winds and a waterspout. If the same happens
to you, you need to adjust your position to ensure that you are not in the
path of a waterspout and that the wind won�t blow you well off course into an
awkward position. Take shots at the fort when you can, but prioritise
survival.
Dock in the area permitted and follow the path. Climb the small set of stairs
here until you reach the collapsed section of burning wall. We can�t pass here
so climb the wall to the left of this. Once you reach the top, two target
markers will appear. We have to kill the two fort commanders.
Move up to the ledge in front. In the courtyard below you will spot the first
target. Drop down and dispatch him. Clear out any other hostiles whose
attention you have attracted. Once it is safe to do so, climb the wall to the
left (east). Fight your way across the platform here and work your way uo the
stairs. Follow the path around to the right to find the second target with a
gunner on a cannon firing platform. Finish them both off.
Once you have eliminated both officers, use the rope from the cannon platform
where we killed the second officer to access the uppermost courtyard of the
central part of the building. Make your way over to and enter the door marked
with the green objective marker. Kill the enemy inside. This will liberate the
fort.

There�s nothing too tricky about this fort�s naval defences, there are just a
few more than what we are used to so far. That shouldn�t affect your tactics
in any way, shape or form though as the mortars and heady shot/broadsides will
work wonders. We just might need to make an extra pass or two by the fort to
finish off any remaining defences.
After you are finished outside, it�s time to get out of the boat and take the
fort. Land in the area permitted and follow the path. Climb the small set of
stairs here until you reach the collapsed section of burning wall. We can�t
pass here so climb the wall to the right of this. Once you reach the top, two
target markers will appear. We have to kill the two fort commanders.
Run over and climb to the top of the large structure directly in front of you.
At the top, clear out any enemies in the vicinity, then head down the ramp to
reach a small courtyard. Kill the first commander here. Now hop over the wall
to the south and jump down to the platform below. Find the stairs leading down
to the next level below once more to find the second target near the water
here. Finish him off.
Once you have eliminated both commanders make your way over to and enter the

Dock in the area permitted and follow the path. Climb the stairs until you
reach the collapsed section of burning wall. We can�t pass here so climb the
wall to the right of this. Once you reach the top, clear out any enemies
immediately in front of you. From this central area here we need to kill
three fort commanders. The first is up the slope to the right, so head over
there first to eliminate him and his two buddies. Return to where we reached
the central area.
If you turn to the left and look over the ledge you will see the second target
on a platform below, drop down and assassinate him. Kill his bodyguards if
they attack you and then climb back up the wall to the previous area. Once
you are back up, look to the east to spot a crane and some hanging cages. The
final target is on a platform below these. Run over and assassinate him as
well before returning to the central area once again.
After all three commanders have been dealt with, return to where we killed the
first target and enter the door marked with the green objective marker. Kill
the enemy inside. This will liberate the fort.

\_________________________________________________________________________|
In addition to having more defences in place than any other fort in the game,
the water surrounding Navassa is often populated by brigs and frigates that
will become hostile if you attack the fort. This results in a drawn out naval
battle with both ships and land based defences � messy! If you get drawn into
a situation like this, draw the ships offshore and away from the fort to
engage them without having to dodge constant mortar fire. Then when it is safe
to do so , resume your assault on the fort itself.
When you have dealt with the defences, head over to the green beam nearby to
dock. Climb the stairs until you reach the collapsed section of burning wall.
We can�t pass here so climb the wall to the right of this. Once you reach the
top, clear out any enemies immediately in front of you. From this central area
here we need to kill three fort commanders. The first is up the slope to the

are back up, look to the east to spot a path down to a lower deck to the right
of the guard tower. The final target is on the platform at the bottom of the
stairs. Descend the stairs and run over and assassinate him before returning
to the central area once again.
After all three commanders have been dealt with, make your way down to the
door marked with the green objective marker at the base of the northern end
of the fort. Kill the enemy inside. This will liberate the fort.

\_________________________________________________________________________|
4 defences, sounds simple right? The reason that this fort is classified as
hard is not due to the number of defences (which seem quite minimal when
considered to some others) but because of the ships in the immediate area.
There are often between 3-6 brigs in the area which will immediately turn and
head in your direction the second you are detected by the fort. So be sure to
draw any hostile ships away and destroy them, or lure them into the fort�s
attacks to assist in incapacitating them before focusing on the fort.
Dock in the area permitted and follow the path. Climb the stairs until you
reach locked gate. Climb the wall to the right of this. Once you reach the
top, turn to the left and climb the short wall here. Kill the first officer
here and the two brutes who are with him. After he is dead, head to the end of
the platform to the right. From here you should see the second officer in the
courtyard down below. Drop down and take care of him.
Clear out the rest of the enemies in the courtyard and climb the wall to the
south. Continue straight ahead form here, climbing the two sets of stairs (and
killing anyone who gets in the way). When you reach the top, follow the path
around to the left and kill the officer on the grassy lookout area here.
Now that all three officers have been dealt with, open the door marked with
the green objective marker nearby. Kill the enemy inside. This will liberate
the fort.

As with the Serranilla fort, this fort can also be a little difficult, not due
to the defences of the fort itself, but due to environmental factors. Each
time I approach the his fort a storm would start up, as such the wind will
change suddenly and without warning, the rain will limit your visibility
somewhat and there is the constant threat of rogue waves coming from off
shore. Completing the naval section of this fort all about surviving the
elements whilst damaging the defences when you see an opportunity.
Dock in the area permitted and follow the path. Climb the winding ramp around
the outside of the destroyed cannon tower until you reach locked gate. Climb
the wall to the left of this. Once you reach the top, drop down into the
courtyard on the right to find two of the officers. One will run up the nearby
ramp and work his way up to a higher level of the fort. As such, deal with the
officer who stays put first and then go and follow the set path up the stairs
and back across the front of the fort to find and eliminate the second
officer.
The final officer can be found in a small grassy courtyard at the very top of
the fort in company with a couple of gunners. Kill them.
After dispatching all three of the officers, open the door marked with the
green objective marker nearby. Kill the enemy inside. This will liberate the
fort.

This fort can be tricky because of the weather surrounding it. It is often
misty/foggy and can be hard to tell how close you are to shore. In addition
to the defences, there are also a number of hostile frigates in the nearby
area which will move to intercept if you attack the fort. Again it is best to
either lure them away and engage them away from the fort, or lure them back
through the fort�s attacks to help sink them before focusing on the fort
itself.
Dock in the area permitted and follow the path. Climb the rubble between the
two burning section of wall. Drop down and follow the area around to the right
to find the first officer. Kill him and any enemies in the immediate area who
trouble you. Climb the set of stairs close by and turn left at the top. Follow
the set path at the base of the wall to the right and you should soon come
across the second officer. Eliminate him and then make your way up the small
ramp to the upper level nearby. Take the stairs on the left at the top to find
the final officer. Kill him.
Now that all three officers have been dealt with, open the door marked with
the green objective marker on the central tier of the fort nearby. Kill the
enemy inside. This will liberate the fort.

Introduction:
_______________
There are seven shipwrecks that can be explored around the Caribbean (well
nine if you include the smuggler�s dens that also have underwater segments)
and each of them contains a large number of treasure chests with one of them
usually containing a design plan that can be used to unlock elite level
upgrades for the Jackdaw.
As these areas can be quite large and there are a large number of treasure
chests, it is entirely possible to come back multiple times to hunt down and
collect every last chest and Animus Fragment in each. For your convenience, I
have written walkthroughs that will take you through each shipwreck dive spot
in a single sitting whilst collecting all of those collectibles with ease.
Rewards:
________________
> Each shipwreck contains a plan for an elite upgrade for the Jackdaw.
> Finding and exploring all seven of the available shipwrecks is a
requirement for a level three Abstergo Explorer challenge.

Below is a list of all the shipwrecks in the game in the order they appear in
the in-game progress tracker. Please use the link beside the wreck of interest
below to jump down to where you need to go:

\_________________________________________________________________________|
From the start swim north and enter the ruins from above (to avoid the eel at
ground level) to grab the chest within. Swim back past the bell (and use it to
restore air if you need it) and head up to the top of the underwater temple.
At the top, there is an open door enter this for an Animus fragment. Swim down
to the entrance at the front of the temple and go through the door (and stick
to the right hand wall to avoid an eel). You will find a chest at the back of
the room. Exit the temple.
Swim down and to the right to find an air barrel. Ignore this for now and enter
the tunnel to its right. Grab the chest from behind the moray eel and then
follow the tunnel for a short distance until you find an air pocket. Surface
in here.
When you are good to go, dive down and continue into the next tunnel and turn
right. In this tunnel, if you see the screen shake a little, which happens
periodically, a strong water current will rush through shortly afterwards and
push you back to the start. To combat this, swim into the beams along the floor
to propel yourself up the tunnel quicker between currents. Follow the tunnel a
short distance and enter the alcove on the right to grab a chest. Again, wait
for the current to pass and then continue up the tunnel to the right, take the
next exit on the right to find an Animus Fragment and an air pocket to refill
your oxygen.
Backtrack through the tunnels we just came through and when you exit back
outside, use the air barrel we ignored earlier. Exit and swim over to the
shipwreck directly opposite the exit from the tunnel, below this is another
chest. Pop out the other side of this and use the air barrel here. Swim over
and take a shortcut over the rocks to the right of the temple nearby. After a
short swim, you�ll find yourself above a channel path through some rocks.
Swim down to the seabed and follow the path until you see some wreckage on the
left. Check this out to find a chest inside. Exit and use the air barrel
outside and then continue to the southwest, past the hull of the ship pointing
upwards. Once you are past it, turn around and look inside for an Animus
Fragment. Use the air barrel here if you require it. Follow the small tunnel
around to the right to find another chest.
Exit the far side and continue until you reach the next air barrel. Use this
if you like. When you are ready, keep going along the path here until you see
another small temple-like structure on the left. Swim over and look in the
hole in the ruin behind this to find the final chest.
Now make your way all the way back to the diving bell. Interact with this to
return to the Jackdaw.

\_________________________________________________________________________|
From the start, you will see a pair of wrecked ships. There is a chest in each
of them. Quickly swim through the wreck on the right, grabbing the first chest
and dodging jellyfish as you go, then swim down through the gap in the top of
the wreck on the left for the second chest. Pop up and use the air barrel
nearby.
From the air barrel, you will see an underwater cave entrance up ahead. After
refuelling your air, enter the tunnel and follow it to the right. Upon
entering the first room you�ll see an Animus fragment behind a wall ahead, but
we can�t grab it just yet. Follow the tunnel to the right until you reach the
next room. At this point, swim to the left to find the tunnel leading to the
Animus Fragment. Return to the previous room and continue through the tunnel
until you are back outside.
Use the air barrel here to refill and then look below it to find a ship hull
containing a chest (avoid the eel!). Follow the ship through and out the far
end. Swim up to the deck of the next wreck ahead and use the air barrel here
if you require it. Dodge the jellyfish and Interact with the glowing hatch on
the deck to open it and swim inside.
Grab the chest from the floor here and enter the next tunnel. Swim through
until you reach the first air pocket. Grab the chest on the ground here and
then surface to replenish your air. Dive back down and follow the jellyfish
tunnel behind the chest. As you go, keep your eyes peeled for a small alcove
on the left containing an Animus fragment. Once you have that, keep going
until you reach the next air pocket.
At this point, we can climb out of the water. Climb the ramp and loot the
pair of chests here. Afterwards, dive down the hole to reach the next water
source. Here immediately duck underwater and grab the chest here.
Enter the tunnel and you will be propelled forward by water currents. We have
limited control at this time, so do your best to dodge the obstacles in your
way. Eventually you will reach a tunnel on the far side of the area. Move
forward down the tunnel a short way to find an air pocket. Swim up to the
surface in here to regain some oxygen.
Afterwards continue through the tunnel a short way and you�ll be back outside
near the diving bell. Interact with this to return to the Jackdaw.

Dive down and follow the path north. When it forks, take the left route and
stay close to the seabed and move through the seaweed to avoid being spotted
by the sharks patrolling above. As you move through the passage here, keep an
eye out for a pair of jellyfish on the sunken ship to the right. They are
hanging out by a hole that will allow us inside. Manoeuvre around the jellyfish
and go inside for a chest.
Exit back to the previous pathway and continue until you reach an opening with
an air barrel. Use this to replenish your air. Now continue to the north along
the sea floor using the kelp to keep out of sight of the sharks. When you
reach the air barrel, use it. Once you are done with the air barrel, enter the
shipwreck just to the right, avoid the jellyfish inside and open the chest.
Exit via the hole in the hull to the right of the chest.
Upon leaving the hull, turn left and swim down to reach the seaweed below.
When the sharks move away look up to the sunken ship in front and you�ll see
an air barrel around half way up its side. Use this and then enter the window
behind it. Go past the first doorframe and immediately turn right. Look around
the corner here for an Animus Fragment. Turn around and enter the room
opposite the fragment for a chest. Exit via the open window to the right.
Turn to the left and follow the line of the ship until you see an air barrel
up on the deck to the right. Swim up and interact with this. Look just behind
the wall nearby between the two sets of stairways to find another chest. Swim
up the mast until you reach the second platform above, you�ll find another
Animus Fragment here.
Return back down to the deck and follow it to the south. When you reach the
hole in the centre, swim inside and look in the room to the right for a chest.
Exit the area and swim up to the air barrel near the southern end of the ship.
From here, you�ll see a shark patrolling back and forth and a chest just in a
hallway to the right. When the shark moves away, quickly swim into the doorway
and grab the chest.
Instead of going back out to meet the shark again, follow the hallway and take
the stairs at the end. From the top, turn left and look in the corner of the
end of the ship here for the final chest. Now swim over to the east of the
ship to find the final Animus Fragment.
Now quickly swim over and interact with the diving bell just to the south to
return to the Jackdaw.

Swim to the north and over the top of the bowsprit of the sunken ship. As you
reach the deck, enter the doorway on the right to find a chest. Exit and
continue along the ship until you reach the air barrel. Ignore this for a
moment and follow the deck of the ship until you reach a gap where the ship
has snapped in half. Swim straight down this and find the section of ship
wedged between the rock cliffs below. Inside this you will find an animus
Fragment. Return to the air barrel and use this to get some air back.
Now swim north across the gap make to the north side of the ship. As you
arrive on deck, find the entrance nearby. As you enter, look down the hallway
to the left for a chest. Return to the deck and keep following it to the north
until you find two sets of stairways, look in the small alcove between these
to find another chest.
Now quickly swim to the left hand side of the ship, over the edge and follow
the hull down to the seafloor. Look out for a hole in the ship�s hull as you
go. Enter here and grab the chest ahead, then check out the hallways to the
right for another Animus Fragment. When you have both, exit vai the same hole
in the side of the ship we entered form and follow it to the north until you
reach the next air barrel. Use this to replenish your O2.
Quickly duck into the small passage to the west to grab the chest here and
then follow the wall past the used air barrel to the north east. When you see
the sideways ship at the bottom of the seabed there swim over and look inside
for a chest.
Return outside and face south, you should see an Animus Fragment on top of a
section of rock directly ahead of you. Swim over here whilst avoiding the
shark as best you can. After grabbing the fragment, swim down to the floor
below and use the air barrel to get some air back.
Follow the path along the seabed here to the south, using the seaweed to hide
from the sharks as you go. When you see the path on the left, swim up and
over the eel you can see here and back to the floor on the other side. Open
the chest beneath the ship here and use the air barrel to replenish your air
supply.
Now swim back over and interact with the diving bell just to the south west
to return to the Jackdaw.

From the bell at the start of the dive, swim to the southwest and into the
upturned ship hull. Inside you�ll find a chest. Continue out the far side of
the wreck and immediately turn to the left to see another, larger wreck in
front of you. Watch out for the eel and sharks as you swim the short distance
over to the entrance, go inside and grab the chest on the floor in here. Use
the air barrel just outside if you require it.
Now swim directly south until you find another air barrel. Ignore this for now
and enter the shipwreck behind it and avoid the pair of moray eels for an
Animus Fragment. Return and use the air barrel.
From here, swim up to the large wreck perched on the rock shelf above us. Swim
over the railing and look for a chest in the corner near the base of the first
mast. Keep following the deck of the ship to the north until you find the next
air barrel. After this, dive straight down into the gap between the two halves
of the ship and look beneath the debris on the sea floor for another chest.
Continue along the sea bed to the north until you reach another air barrel.
After using the air barrel, swim up to the northern half of the ship and enter
the open door in the hull. Dodge the spiky sea urchins on the pillars inside
and swim through the hull. When you reach the corner, grab the chest directly
in front of you, then turn and follow the passage all the way back to find
another chest. Now follow the passage all the way east and up the ramp at the
end. Open the chest at the top.
Now quickly turn around and swim through the opening ahead to find an air
barrel. Now swim to the second platform near the top of the still in-tact mast
to find the final Animus Fragment.
Now make your way all the way back to the diving bell. Interact with this to

Swim south from the diving bell and enter the shipwreck on the sea floor.
Avoid the urchins and jellyfish within and grab the chest. Follow the wreck
until the end and swim out the far side. Just across from the exit you�ll see
yet another wreck, swim over and use the air barrel to your right and then
enter the hull of the wreck find a second chest.
From the chest, turn to the right to find a small ship corridor. Enter this
and swim over the first beam covered with urchins to find a chest. Change your
view to find the ramp nearby (it�s on the roof!) and swim up to the upper
level of the hull. As you get up, immediately look behind you to find another
chest. From here, follow the path out through the door back outside, this time
on the deck of the ship.
Move outside and look in the open hatch just before the fallen mast to find
an Animus Fragment. Return outside and use the air barrel nearby. After using
this, swim across the gap to the next section of the ship. Find the air barrel
here and ignore it for the moment. Instead look in the right hand corner of
the room for a chest. Now go and use that air barrel.
From the barrel swim upwards and then down into the next section of the deck
to the north. Swim to the right and as you approach the hole in the hull, look
in the hallway to the right to find another chest. Grab this and swim out of
the hull. Swim past the air barrel immediately outside and enter the small
shipwreck to the east. Near the far end, you�ll find an Animus fragment hiding
behind a support pillar.
Exit the far end of the smaller wreck, turn right and swim back the way you
came to use the air barrel we ignored just moments ago. After refilling your
air, follow the shipwreck to the north and once you reach the large rocky
passages, hug the left hand wall for a short distance until you see another
wreck lying up against the wall. Look in here for the final chest.
Now swim over to the east and interact with the diving bell to return to the

There are five smuggler�s dens hidden around the Caribbean islands and each of
them is populated by a few unfriendlies and several treasure chests which
contain a lot more in terms of money and materials/goods than the standard
chest or low level ship sailing about. Whilst they are not by any means
difficult, some of the dens that include underwater sections can be a little
disorienting. As such, I have written walkthroughs for grabbing all
collectibles through each of the smuggler�s dens in the game.
Rewards:
______________
> Finding and plundering all five smuggler�s dens is a requirement for a
level three Abstergo Pirate challenge.
Below you�ll find walkthroughs for each of the Smuggler�s Dens in the game
sorted by Alphabetical order.

\ > Elite Plan: Elite Heavy Shot. |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
Sail over to the marker for Ambergris Key and dock with the shipwreck to dive
underwater.
Leave the diving bell and make for the cave entrance in front of us. Avoid the
jellyfish as much as possible and continue through the tunnel here until we
reach the air pocket. Surface here. There is a chest at the bottom of the
room here so dive down and grab that, re-surface to refill your air supply
and then dive back under and take the next tunnel.
Follow this tunnel all the way to the end, steering clear of the jellyfish
that occupy the area as you go. When you reach the end of the tunnel, surface
and you will find an air pocket and a room with some ruins in it ahead. Peek
into the room and look up on the ruins to the right there are a pair of guards
here. Swim over to the wall beneath them and climb the pillar for an Animus
fragment.
Drop back into the water and mosey on over to the stairs on the left hand side
of the ruin. Climb the broken pillar all the way to the top, being sure to
stay out of sight of the guards. . Wait for the patroller to walk off before
hopping up and assassinating the stationary guard. Hide behind the door frame
and corner assassinate the patroller when he comes back. When the patrolling
guard comes back, deal with him as you see fit.
Now that we are here in the smuggler�s den, we may as well grab the loot from
the area. There are three groups of enemies in this room so do with them as
you deem appropriate.
There are two chests, one on the north side and one on the south side. Around
halfway down the room, you�ll find a hole in the wall high up on the central
structure. Climb up into this to find an Animus Fragment. In a small alcove
opposite the door we came in from is another pair of guards. Deal with them
and loot the corpse for a treasure map (Plan- Elite heavy Shot 307,195 �
Misteriosa).
With that, we�ve finished off this smuggler�s den/diving location. Find the
ramp leading out of the room, and dive into the water below. Head over to the
Jackdaw to continue.

\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ > Collectibles: 3 Treasure Chests, 2 Animus Fragments, 1 Treasure Map |
\__________________________________________________________________________|
As with the previous Smuggler�s Den at Ambergris key, this one is also located
underwater. Sail over to the Anotto Bay marker and dock with the shipwreck to
dive underwater.
Once you are down, continue straight forward and enter the cave here. As you
enter you�ll note that it looks kind of like a mine shaft. Continue forward
until you see a ladder, swim up to the top of this. Hang out here for a few
moments and wait for a shark to swim by. Follow this and continue to the end
of the hallway. Turn left here and then right when you reach the next wall to
find a ladder. Swim up the shaft here and quickly turn around to find a chest.
Now swim around the corner to find an air pocket. Surface at this point to
replenish your air supply.
Dive back down and follow the hallway to the end, turn left to find an Animus
Shard. Now follow the tunnel to the right. Swim up to the top of the ladder
here to exit on to dry land run around the corner and dive underwater again.
Now as you swim through the tunnels, hug the left hand wall and follow the
area through until you find another ladder. Swim up to the surface at the
ladder to find the smuggler�s hideout.
Climb up onto the ledges above the water here and hang out for a moment. Now
simply use the ledges to take everyone down undetected using ledge takedowns
and stealth swimming or just march in and murder the lot of them to velar the
den.
Now loot the area. There is a treasure chest just in front of the ladder on
the north side of the room and another by the top of the stairs leading into
the water on the south side of the room. On a walkway on the eastern side of
the room is a cadaver with a treasure map. In the water on the centre of the
area, if you dive below you�ll find a tunnel. Follow this to the left and
surface when you are able to find an Animus shard.
When you have everything, climb the ladder on the north side of the room and
dive into the ocean below. Climb back onto the Jackdaw to finish up.

Park outside in the boat and swim over to the beach in front of the cave. Look
to the right of the entrance for a message in a bottle (5). Run over and enter
the cave. Follow it through until you reach a large cavern with a natural hole
in the roof letting light in.
Climb the wooden platform immediately to your right and dispatch the gunner.
Drop down to the wooden walkway below and look out for the first ladder on
your left. Climb down here and look behind the wall at its base for an Animus
fragment. Climb back up the ladder and follow the walkway all the way left.
Kill the guard at the end. At this point, loot the nearby chest.
Drop down the ladder at the end of the walkway and eliminate the two smugglers
standing by the campfire in the camp directly ahead of you. Loot the chest up
against one of the tents here. Continue towards the wooden docking platform
beyond the camp. Eliminate the threebad guys here.
Once it is all clear, there is a third chest to loot on the ground level of
the docks hidden behind some crates. The final chest is on the higher level of
the docks that we can climb up to on the eastern wall. Drop down into the water
and swim below the platform that housed the final chest to find another Animus
fragment.
Now that we have everything, we can exit the area.

] Petite Caverne [SSD004][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ > Collectibles: 4 Treasure Chests, 2 Animus Fragments, 1 Treasure Map |
\__________________________________________________________________________|
Park outside in the boat and enter the cave. Follow the left hand wall until
you find yourself on some platforms. Hop across these until you see a gunner
up on an upper level platform ahead on the left. Work your way over to this
location and climb up to the platform with the gunner � be sure to grab the
Animus fragment as you climb.
Drop down from the platform here and dispatch the four guards nearby practicing
their shooting. There is a chest inside a tent in this main camp area. Climb
up onto the fence behind where the group of enemies were shooting and from
here, air assassinate the guy by the campfire below. Cross the bridge and kill
the guy around the corner to the left with a sprint assassination. Loot the
chest here.
Drop down to the dockside area below. Go over to the far west side of this
platform to find a cadaver with a treasure map (70, 405 - Tulum). Just east of
this is a third treasure chest. From this chest, look directly north, you
should see an Animus Fragment on a small wooden deck. Now dive into the water
and swim past the back of the ship to the north. Here you�ll find a rowboat,
and in an alcove in the wall just to the west of it � the final chest.
Hop in the rowboat to return to the Jackdaw.

] San Juan [SSD005][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ > Collectibles: 3 Treasure Chests, 2 Animus Fragments, |
\__________________________________________________________________________|
As with Ambergris Key, this smuggler location is marked by and entered using a
sunken ship. As such, sail over to the San Juan marker on the world map and
dock with the shipwreck to dive underwater.
Leave the diving bell and swim forward into the tunnel . As you work your way
through it, be careful to stay away from the walls due to an abundance of
urchins. Keep moving through the tunnel, and grab the Animus Fragment as you
go, and keep swimming until you reach the first air pocket. Surface in here to
replenish your air.
Follow the next tunnel until you reach a larger room at the end. Loot the chest
in here and then follow the next short set of tunnels until you surface in the
smuggler�s cavern.
Swim over and climb the wooden structure on the right. Perform a ledge
assassination on the enemy at the top. Next, climb up and knock out the other
bad guy in front. Loot the chest here. Climb the wall to the right of his
position and climb up onto the ledge.
Walk out across the top of the room using the rope strung up here. When you
are around halfway across, look down to the right and perform an air
assassination on the guard by himself on the north side of the room. Loot the
chest he was guarding. Double assassinate the pair of enemies looking at the
wall to the left of the chest.
Climb the ladders all the way to the top and grab the Animus Fragment from the
small beam. Take care of the gunners here, run through the short cave and dive
into the water below. Swim over to the Jackdaw.

Introduction:
________________________
There are 16 glowing Mayan Stelae stones (think shiny rectangular stacks of
Lego) hidden across the Caribbean islands and upon discovering each of them,
we can climb to the top of them in order to undertake a small, shape aligning
mini-game which will reveal a treasure location nearby when completed. Each of
these locations houses a Mayan stone that we can dig up.
Once we have found and collected all 16 of the Mayan Stones, we can travel to
Tulum where there is a door inside the main temple (the doors either side of
the water at the base of the viewpoint in town will grant you entry to the
right location) that becomes accessible once all of the stones have been
gathered. Upon opening the door we will earn some rewards.
Rewards:
________________________
> For opening the door we will unlock the Mayan outfit. A costume that
deflects bullets and other metal projectiles.
> For opening the door, we'll also earn the achievement/trophy �Vault
Raider�.

Introduction:
________________________
With a pirate game, buried treasures were pretty much inevitable weren�t they?
Well Assassin�s Creed IV does not disappoint. Throughout the game world,
players can find a series of treasure maps on the bodies of fallen sailors.
The map gives players a set of co-ordinates which highlight the location�s
icon on the world map as well as a diagram giving hints as to the treasure�s
location.
At this point, players need to travel to the location in question and use the
drawing on the treasure map to find the dig site. This is marked with a red
�X� on each map. Approaching the required location, an orange glow on the
ground will indicate the actual location. Move over and interact with this to
dig up the treasure.

also contain elite plans for upgrades to the Jackdaw. So they are definitely

Introduction:
________________________
Once you have completed the final memory sequence in the game, and the credits
have rolled (or you have taken over the four corner forts), you�ll find that
there are now four red ship icons on the world map. There is one of these
icons in each of the four corners of the map: north east, north west, south
east and south west. These icons represent optional �boss encounters� with
legendary ships with very high ship levels, massive armour and top notch
weapons.
These four naval battles are the hardest challenge you will face during your
time with the jackdaw and as such, you should level up all of its upgrades as
much as possible before attempting to take down one of these monstrosities.
Rewards:
________________________
> Each of the legendary ship encounters will see 20,000 Reales deposited
into the ocean upon completion.
> Complete all four of the legendary ship battles to earn the
achievement/trophy �Devil of the Caribbean�.
Below you�ll find short tactics guides to locating and taking down each of
the four legendary ships. Note that these guides/tactics are by no means the
only way to destroy these powerful enemies, but through trial and error (a
heck of a lot of error) these are the best ways that I found to deal with
them.
If you have a good tactic, or a better way to deal with these ships, please
head down to the contact section and send me an email to let me know!

] El Impoluto [SLS001][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: \ Start Location: |
\---------------------------------------\---------------------------------|
\ > 20,000 Reales. \ > Northwest corner of the map.|
\_______________________________________\_______________________________|
The El Impoluto is a level 75 Man o� War located in the northwest corner of
the map and can be an ominous sight and a massively tricky encounter your first
time around. This vessel�s two major strengths are its ram which can cause
devastating amounts of damage even on a fully upgraded hull and its broadside
attack which fires more cannons at once than you can count. As most of its
firepower lays in the front and sides of the vessel, the obvious safe spot is
in the water behind it.
Unfortunately the El Poluto is quite a manoeuvrable ship and can change its
direction and pick up speed extremely quickly. If you see the ship sail right
out of your range of attacks and then turn suddenly you know that it is about
to ram at you with speed. If you do see it coming, do not try to steer to
either side of it � this invites the El Impoluto to slam directly into the
side of your vessel, which is pretty much an instant de-synchronisation.
Instead, try to turn all the way around so that your back is facing the
oncoming ship and slightly off-centre. This will cause a glancing blow rather
than a deadly one and you can hit it with a heavy shot or two as it comes up
your side. Due to its speed it will also end up in front of you.
Behind the ship is where you should attempt to spend most of the fight. From
here you should still be able to use most of your attacks but don�t get carried
away as the major focus of your offensive efforts should be on dropping mortars
and using the chain shot. Every time it attempts to ram you, repeat the
process and then stick to its rear as long as you can.
Eventually, with a bit of luck, and a lot of practice you will be able to fell
this monster.
Once it has taken enough damage, it will drop a cargo crate containing
20,000 Reales.

This legendary ship, like the others has a massive broadside attack, but its
most devastating ability is the invisible mortar shots that it fires. The
mortars will not appear on the water as the typical yellow/red silhouettes
that we are used to, instead you need to watch where the mortars are going to
avoid them.
As with the previous legendary ship, as most of its firepower lays in the
front and sides of the vessel, the obvious safe spot is in the water directly
behind it. You will want to manoeuvre your way up to the very back of the ship
and stay there. Here you will not be bothered by mortars and you have a clear
shot at ramming the back of the vessel, hitting it with chain shots and
launching your own mortars to damage it.
As long as you can maintain your position at the back of the ship, you will
have no trouble taking it down.
Once it has taken enough damage, it will drop a cargo crate containing 20,000
Reales.

The HMS Prince is probably the easiest of all the legendary ship encounters.
However whilst you battle this ship, you will also have to deal with a thick
fog that can make visibility a little tricky at times. This legendary ship has
a propensity to chain spam its mortar attacks and hit you with its massively
damaging broadside attacks as well. Fortunately, if you can avoid these
attacks the difficulty of the encounter drops significantly.
The easiest way to defeat this ship was to try and take the mortars out of the
equation. That means trying to stay as close as you can to the rear of the
enemy vessel, either by constantly maintaining a position slightly off to the
side or following directly behind it. From here you should still be able to
use most of your attacks but the major focus of your offensive efforts should
be on dropping mortars and using the chain shot.
When the ship turns, which it will, use the opportunity to hit it with a few
heavy shots whilst you try to reposition yourself behind it again.
Once it has taken enough damage, it will drop a cargo crate containing 20,000
Reales.

What is worse than a single level 75 man o� war with massive armour and
overpowered weapons? Why two of them at once of course. This legendary ship
encounter is by far the hardest in the game. Not only are both of these ships
more powerful than anything else you have encountered in the game (except
other legendary ships) on their own, you have to fight both of them together
and they work as a team.
The most important part of this fight is to stay as far away from the ships as
you can, dropping mortars on them from the maximum range possible and making
sure that you never, ever let them flank you. They have an extremely powerful
broadside attack and if both of them unleash it on you simultaneously you are
in serious trouble.
With fully upgraded mortars and broadside and full ammo, I was able to stay at
a distance and rain mortars down on whichever vessel was in range at the time.
By the time I was out of ammo, a few convenient passes with heavy shots and
swivel gun action on some weak spots saw the first vessel sink. Afterwards it
was just a matter of focusing on the second ship and whittling its health away
too.
Once both ships have taken enough damage, each will drop a cargo crate
containing 10,000 Reales.

Introduction:
________________________
The courier side-activities are ambient events that appear randomly when you
are wandering around in some of the larger cities � Havana, Kingston and
Nassau. They will appear as a golden chest marker on the mini-map and as you
approach them they will run off.
To complete the activity, you need to chase them down and tackle them. Loot
their bodies whilst they are down for a small sum of money which is in most
cases much greater than the average takings from pickpocketing.

] Pirate Rescue [SMC002][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
Introduction:
________________________
Similar to the aforementioned courier missions, these activities will appear
randomly and for the most part, only in the larger cities (Kingston, Havana
and Nassau) and on a select few of the larger islands in the world map
(Principe, Cumberland Bay, Misteriosa, etc.). The side-activities themselves
consist of rescuing or helping a group of pirates who have found themselves
in trouble with the local authorities.
The pirate rescue side-activities are marked with a circular icon with a group
of three people on it. There are a number of different permutations to this
side-task and they include the following:
> Hanging � Saving a pirate from a hanging can be done by approaching and
interacting with him before he dies, or alternatively shooting
the rope.
> Prisoners � These pirates are on their knees being held at gunpoint.You
will need to sneak up and kill the two gunners holding their
weapons on the pirates before freeing them.
> Escorts � Guards will be escorting groups of prisoners through the
streets. Approach and kill the guards before rescuing the
prisoners.
> Brawl � A group of pirates and guards will be attacking each other.Enter
the fray and help the pirates kill the guards to free them.
Note that completing these missions will have the rescued pirates join your
crew if you have space available of the Jackdaw.

\____________________________________________________________________________/
Introduction:
________________________
Taverns allow us to recruit additional pirates for our crew, drink alcohol to
get a bit tipsy and try out some gambling-based mini- games to earn a bit of
extra money. There are nine taverns in the game and all except the tavern at
Nassau start as locked locations.
Taverns can be unlocked by approaching the icon on the map and interacting
with the bartender. As you do a small bar fight will break out and you will
have to fight off four men in hand-to-hand combat. Once you have beaten them
all up, the tavern will now be usable.
Rewards:

Unlocking all eight taverns will unlock the achievement/trophy �Barfly�.
The taverns are marked by a jug icon on the area maps and can be found in the
following areas:
> Andreas Island
> Arroyos
> Corozal
> Crooked Island
> Grand Cayman
> Ile a Vache
> Kingston � this marker does not always seem to appear on the map. The

] Warehouse Raids [SMC004][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
Introduction:
________________________
Warehouses are one of several miscellaneous side-activities that can be
undertaken in some of the major cities and on some select islands around the
world map. Pilfering supplies from a warehouse performs a similar function to
attacking and plundering ships with the jackdaw, but usually with a much larger
pay off in terms of Reales and quantities of materials/trade goods.
To complete a warehouse mission, players need to enter the restricted area
around the warehouse icon itself, use eagle vision to identify the guard
carrying the warehouse key and then either pick his pocket or kill him and
loot the body to acquire the key.
Once you have the key, make your way over to the building marked with the
warehouse icon and use the key on the glowing door.
The warehouse side-missions are marked with a square warehouse icon which will
be white when it is ready to be attempted and will be greyed out when it is
unavailable.
Warehouses can be found in the following locations:
> New Bone
> Tortuga
> Kingston � Central
> Kingston � North
> Cat Island
> Matanzas
> Havana � South
> Nassau - South

Hunting has made a comeback from Assassin�s Creed III and whilst the entire
process has been simplified somewhat (no traps or bait anymore) the impact it
has on the game has increased. To earn player upgrades for Edward, they need
to craft various pieces of equipment and the reagents required for these are
acquired from skinning animals that you have killed.
In addition to land-based hunting, Assassin�s Creed IV: Black Flag now also
incorporates hunting of sea creatures in a harpooning mini-game. Below you�ll
find a guide to both hunting and harpooning and locations for the best chance
to find certain animals.
Here are some shortcuts to help navigate the following section more easily:
A. Hunting ..................................... [HNT00A]
B. Land Animal Locations ....................... [HNT00B]
C. Harpooning .................................. [HNT00C]
D. Marine Animal Locations ..................... [HNT00D]
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Hunting [HNT00A][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
Whilst on land, the hunting portion of Assassin�s Creed IV: Black Flag plays
out essentially the same as Assassin�s Creed III. The aim is to find animals,
sneak up on them and kill them before skinning their leather/hides. If an
animal sees you, it will flee leading you on a chase to catch and kill it. As
such, it is better to use ranged weapons or stealth tactics to get close to
them before making your move.
Some animals, such as jaguars, crocodiles and sharks are aggressive and will
attack you on sight. If this happens, press the on-screen button prompts as
quickly as possible to escape.
Tips & Tricks:
> If you look at the main/mini-maps you will see silhouettes of animals
that signify the approximate location of said species.
> Animals will appear as red in Eagle vision, allowing you to quickly
scan and find animals in your immediate area.
> It is possible to use sleep darts and pistols to take down animals from
a distance. Some animals, such as crocodiles can only be killed by
projectiles.
> Using treetop pathways and stalking zones to approach animals undetected
is recommended to make things a little quicker and easier.
> Crafting the hunter�s outfit will reduce the distance you can get to
animals before they notice you.

There are 13 different types of land dwelling animals to be found and hunted
across the islands of the caribbean. Each island is home to a different range
of animals so you will have to explore far and wide if you want to track down
every last type of animal for those precious hides to facilitate crafting of
additional gear.

] Harpooning [HNT00C][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
Harpooning sea creatures is an ambient hunting event that happens whilst you
are piloting the jackdaw. As you sail about, you will occasionally see a white
circular marker appear on the ocean nearby with a swarm of seagulls flapping
about overhead. This is where we are able to attempt our harpoon
side-activities.
As you approach a target location, similarly to boarding enemy ships, we need
to hold down the interact button to continue.
The activity takes place in a rowboat. You�ll sit at the front with a harpoon.
Use the targeting button to bring up a reticule of sorts and when you see the
target animal, throw your harpoon at it. If you successfully hit the creature,
it will start dragging the boat. This is a great opportunity to pepper it with
additional harpoons.
After a short trip, the animal will break free and dive underwater. A few
moments later it will charge at the boat in an attempt to damage it. Hit it
with a harpoon before it can do so and repeat the dragging process.
Once the animal�s health bar has been reduced to nothing, the hunt will be
complete. Easy!

To supplement the game's sword and gunplay, players can now craft items to
assist them in a number of facets of gameplay by improving Edward�s health,
increasing the effectiveness of the darts he carries, granting the ability to
carry additional pistols and have more ammunition on hand. To craft these
items, players must find the required reagents in the environment by hunting/
harpooning the appropriate animals and then use the crafting option in the
main menu to create the desired items.
Craftable items come in a few flavours and these include:
> Health Upgrades
> Ammo Capacity
> Equipment Upgrades
> Projectiles
> Outfits
Many of the more advanced recipes require you to track down and skin some rare
and elusive animals. For a guide to finding and hunting all of the animal
types in the game check out the hunting guide above.
Below you�ll find a list of all the items that we can craft in the game,
organised by upgrades, outfits and projectiles. Beside each, there will be a
brief description of what the upgrade will do along with what reagents are
required.

] Edward Upgrades [UPD002][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
The game classifies Edward upgrades as weapons and outfits that can be
purchased. Considering I was able to finish the game without ever touching the
menu for this once, most of the things on offer seem highly cosmetic. Dig a
little deeper however and there are an array of interesting weapons and
outfits at your disposal to make sword and hand to hand combat much easier.
Below you�ll find a list of all the Sword sets, guns and outfits available in
the game along with a brief description on how you can go about obtaining
each.

] Jackdaw Upgrades [UPD003][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
There are an abundance of upgrades that can be applied to the Jackdaw and
these fall into one of three categories � Combat, Storage and Harpooning.
Below you�ll find tables outlining the upgrades available, what reagents are
required to purchase the upgrades.
It should be noted that using resources straight up will only get you so far
with upgrading. To upgrade the Jackdaw to its maximum level, you will have to
earn and unlock the elite plans by diving shipwrecks and hunting down buried
treasures.
Each table shows the name of the upgrade, what classes of reagents are
required for each upgrade type and where to find the elite upgrade for that
particular section of the ship.

| Campaign Collectible Locations |

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
===============================================================================
There is a plethora of Collectibles littered throughout the massive game world
in both the main colonies/settlements, secondary locations, shipwrecks and on
the scores of little islands scattered about the Caribbean. Additionally, there
are collectibles found in the Abstergo Entertainment building during the 'real
world' sequences. So there is a lot to find!
The collectibles come in a number of different forms. This collectible
locations guide will give you a brief description of each type of collectible,
a brief intro on how and what they are used for and then a complete list of all
of the different collectibles in the game sorted by the game's major and
secondary locations. I have included a brief description for the location of
each collectible to assist you in finding them.
The different collectibles include:
Abstergo Entertainment

> Sticky Notes
> Hackable computers
Animus - The Caribbean
_____________________________
> 30 Shanties (Song Sheets)
___________________________
The Shanties, or Song Sheets appear as glowing pages of paper on the
ground and are the type of collectible in Assassin's Creed IV that are
most reminiscent of the Almanac Pages in Assassin's Creed III. If you
haven't played that, well the gist of these collectibles is that they will
not sit in one spot, but as you approach them, they will fly away and
force you to chase them down and catch them, usually across some difficult
to traverse terrain and to use all of your free running prowess in the
process!
The shanties can be used to teach the crew of the jackdaw additional
songs to sing whilst you sail the world map. Collecting all of these is
also a requirement to complete the game at 100% synchronisation.
> 200 Animus Fragments
______________________
These collectibles are small glowing pyramid-shaped objects that can
usually be found in high up, hard to reach places, or floating off the
side of structures. They are the most numerous collectible in the game
and can be found in all of the main settlements, secondary areas and
various places across uncharted portions of the world map accessible by
sailing. 95% of these require some form of climbing or free-running to
acquire. Collecting all 200 of these is a requirement for one of the
Abstergo challenges. They are also required to achieve 100%
synchronisation in the game.
> 20 Messages in Bottles
________________________
The messages in bottles are often found on beaches near the water and
contain a series of journal entries that together form a story which makes
for a good read. They appear a s small green bottles and are found all
over the world map with the majority being located in the game's primary
and secondary locations. There are also three located on uncharted bits
of land on the world map. Collecting all of these is also a requirement to
complete the game at 100% synchronisation.
> 20 Manuscripts
________________
The manuscripts when picked up will give you some new documents to look
at from the main menu and are often related to famous texts or works of
the time. They are usually found in restricted areas in chests guarded by
2-4 enemy soldiers and are located primarily in the main cities, with one
or two located at smaller secondary locations. Collecting all of these is
required to earn 100% synchronisation in each area and overall.
> 22 Treasure Maps
__________________
Treasure maps can be looted from cadavers located around the game's
populated (and occasionally not so populated) areas. Looting the cadaver
will give you a treasure map with a drawing of the location of a treasure
and and some co-ordinates at which to find it. Picking the maps up will
add a document to your database.Note that collecting all of these as well
as finding and uncovering all of the game's buried treasuures are
requirements for 100% synchronisation.
> 200 Treasure Chests
_____________________
In addition to the Animus shards, there are also an abundance of treasure
chests scattered across the Caribbean. They appear as your stock, standard
chest and can be opened by approaching them and using the interact button
when the prompt appears to do so. These often contain various sums of
Reales and reagents. They are not only found all over the populous areas
of the game world, but also in the abandoned ruins and on unchaterted
islands in the middle of the ocean as well. Collecting all of these is
also a requirement to complete the game at 100% synchronisation.
Here are some shorcuts to allow you to quickly jump down to the collectible/s
that you are interested in locating:

Due to a bit of data loss and some general stupidity on my behalf, despite
going and 100%ing the game twice, I have forgotten to write down several
collectible locations, specifically at Long Bay, Misteriosa, San Ignacio and
Gibara. I'm currently in the process of doing a 3rd playthrough so these should
be completed in the near future.
Full collectibles guide for all locations coming soon!

\____________________________________________________________________________/
There are 10 achievements/trophies tied into the side-missions available in
Assassin's Creed IV, likely to force those achievement/trophy hunters out there
to experience everything the game has to offer. Each of them are fairly self-
explanatory and can be obtained by following the relevant sections in the above
guide.
Here are a list of the achievements/trophies that fall into this category and
what needs to be done to unlock each of them:

| | chain located in each of the major cities |
| | (Havana, Kingston, Nassau) and another that |
| | can be started from the settlement on Grand |
| | Cayman. For a complete walkthrough to each of|
| | these quest chains, please check out the |

| King Of The Castle | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Capture all forts. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | There are 11 forts in the game and to capture|
| | each, you must first approach with the |
| | Jackdaw, use the ships weaponry to destroy |
| | the fort�s naval defences before docking with|
| | the fort, infiltrating and killing the marked|
| | officers and commander in charge. These can |
| | be quite tricky towards the southern fringes |
| | of the map, so please use the guide above for|
| | tips on how to approach and conquer each |
| | fort. Here's a link: [SFR000] |

|Sea Legs | Description: |

| | they each start at one of the game�s forts. |
| | In order to undertake each naval contract,you|
| | must first take over or liberate each fort on|
| | the world map. Once liberated, the contract |
| | missions will appear marked on the map as a |
| | circular marker with a skull inside. Several |
| | of these naval contracts can be very |
| | difficult unless you have upgraded your |
| | Jackdaw significantly, so for a few hints and|
| | tips and a general walkthrough for each, |
| | please see the Naval Contract guide above.For|

| | This achievement/trophy is tied into the |
| | Mayan Stelae that you find across the game |
| | world. We need to discover, interact with and|
| | solve the rotation puzzle of each Stelae to |
| | uncover a mayan stone. There are 16 of these |
| | scattered across the Caribbean and they can |
| | be found in the following locations: |

| | rotation puzzles, please check out the Mayan |
| | Stelae guide above - [SMS000]. |
| | |
| | Once you have collected all 16 of these,enter|
| | the large temple in Tulum (via the entrances |
| | either side of the waterfall in the town) and|
| | follow the passages all the way until you |
| | reach a dead end. If you have all 16 Mayan |
| | stones, there will be a flashing section of |
| | wall here that we can interact with. Do so |
| | and head inside, interact with the set of |
| | armour in here for the achievement/trophy to |
| | unlock. |

| | sequence in the game, and the credits have |
| | rolled (or you have taken over the four |

| | four red ship icons on the world map. There |
| | is one of these icons in each of the four |

| | represent optional �boss encounters� with |
| | legendary ships with very high ship levels, |
| | massive armour and top notch weapons. |
| | |
| | These four naval battles are the hardest |
| | challenge you will face during your time with|

] Combat Achievements/Trophies [ACMTR3][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
There are 5 achievements/trophies tied into the games combat system and
performing various tasks whilst in combat. Here's a list of said achievements/
trophies and how to accomplish each:
___________________________ ______________________________________________
/ \/ \
] Achievement/Trophy Name [] Description & Unlock Guide [
\___________________________/\______________________________________________/
| Silence, Fool! | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Kill a guard ringing a bell. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | There are always going to be times when you |
| | are spotted whilst trying to be sneaky and |
| | those alarm bells appear quite regularly, |
| | especially in the plantations and other types|
| | of restricted areas that the game has you |
| | frequenting. All you need to do to earn this |
| | achievement/trophy is to be spotted and then |
| | allow a guard to run for a bell. When he |
| | starts ringing it, either run over and |
| | quickly assassinate him or shoot him to |
| | unlock it. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Roped In | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Perform 5 air assassinations from a swinging |
| | rope. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Whilst boarding other vessels, run up and hit|
| | a glowing rope with speed to swing across to |
| | the other deck. Mash the assassinate button |
| | as you fly across the gap and if there is an |
| | enemy below you, you should successfully |
| | assassinate him. Repeat until you have 5 rope|
| | assassinations to unlock this achievement/ |
| | trophy. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Wild West Indies | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Kill 4 enemies in a row using multi-pistols. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | To do this, we need to first craft three |
| | additional holsters so that Edward can hold |
| | onto four pistols at one time. To do this, we|
| | need to track down and acquire the following |
| | ingredients: |
| | |
| | > Pistol Holster II � 1x ocelot Hide |
| | (completed during |
| | memory sequence 3-1).|
| | > Pistol Holster III � 2 x Humpback Whale |
| | Skin |
| | > Pistol Holster IV � 2 x Crocodile Leather|
| | |
| | Once you have unlocked all four pistol slots,|
| | simply approach a group of enemies (boarding |
| | is especially good due to the confined space)|
| | and mash the shoot button four times. The |
| | multi-pistol attack should kill four |
| | individual enemies and the achievement/trophy|
| | will unlock. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Thug Life | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Plunder 30 ships. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Simply attack, board and plunder 30 ships to |
| | complete this achievement/trophy. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| All Aboard! | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Board a ship without losing any crew members.|
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | To do this we need to board and plunder |
| | another vessel without any of our crew |
| | members dying in the process. I found the |
| | easiest away to do this was to attack a |
| | smaller vessel such as a schooner. Doing such|
| | will only task you with killing 5 enemy |
| | combatants and you should be able to do that |
| | with a few well-placed swivel gun shots |
| | before too many of your mates swing across to|
| | the other deck. |
| | |

] Miscellaneous Achievements/Trophies [ACMTR4][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
These achievements/trophies are a little bit random as I was unable to pool
them together into another category. They revolve around cumulative goals such
as recruiting crew members, swimming and earning money, sharing locations with
friends and checking out some of the hunting/harpooning on offer.
Without further ado, here are the miscellaneous achievements/trophies offered
in Assassin's Creed IV and a bit of information on how you can unlock each of
them:
___________________________ ______________________________________________
/ \/ \
] Achievement/Trophy Name [] Description & Unlock Guide [
\___________________________/\______________________________________________/
| Business And Pleasure | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Earn 50,000 Reales. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Simply accumulate 50,000 Reales. This is |
| | cumulative and all adds up as you progress |
| | through the game.Completing memory sequences,|
| | plundering ships, unlocking treasure chests, |
| | gambling at taverns and completing Assassin |
| | or Naval contracts will all provide a good |
| | monetary boost towards achieving this goal. |
| | Providing you do a little exploring and |
| | complete some of the optional content, you |
| | should get this before the end of the game. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Cannon Fodder | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Recruit 500 crew members. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | You are able to recruit crewmembers either by|
| | hiring them en masse from an unlocked tavern,|
| | by picking up stranded sailors at sea or by |
| | helping pirates who are in trouble with |
| | guards in some of the more built up areas. As|
| | you board ships, you will inevitably lose |
| | crew members, so keep refilling your crew |
| | until this one unlocks. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Mer-man | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Swim a total of 1 nautical mile (nmi). |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Simply swim for 1 nautical mile. This is a |
| | cumulative effort and should unlock before |
| | the end of the game. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Siren Song | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Rescue pirate hostages by distracting enemies|
| | with "dancers." |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | When you come across a group of pirates being|
| | held prisoner in one of the larger city |
| | areas, hire some dancing girls and have them |
| | distract the guards. Whilst they are busy, |
| | sneak by them and rescue the prisoners to |
| | unlock the achievement/trophy. |
| | |
| | If you have a full crew, these side-tasks |
| | will not appear readily. If this is the case,|
| | you can load up memory sequence 3-2 �Now |
| | Hiring� and complete it there. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Redingote Up! | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Craft the Hunter outfit. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | This achievement/trophy requires a bit of |
| | hunting. The Hunter�s Outfit requires a red |
| | howler monkey skin and a white jaguar�s pelt.|
| | These can be acquired by tracking down and |
| | killing the animals and then skinning them. |
| | They can be found in the following locations:|
| | |
| | > Red Howler Monkey � Isla Providencia. |
| | > White Jaguar � Great Inagua, or complete |
| | the 1st mission of Opia�s Templar Hunt |
| | sequence on Cayman Sound. |
| | |
| | Once you have acquired one of each, you can |
| | craft this for the crafting section of the |
| | main menu. |
| | |

| | At the tavern in Nassau, you will see a |

| | additional four times and the screen will |
| | black out. When the picture returns, you�ll |
| | be in a haystack and the achievement/trophy |
| | will unlock. |
| | |
| | Note that I tried this in Kingston and it did|
| | not work, so the other taverns may not have |
| | the same effect. As such, go and try Nassau |
| | first! |

| Easter Egg Locations |
|______________________|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
===============================================================================
There a number of Easter eggs, in-jokes and other amusing bits and pieces
hidden throughout Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. There are eggs hidden both
in the 'real world' Abstergo offices and also throughout the Caribbean inside
the Animus.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note: This list is by no means exhaustive, these are just the Easter Eggs/Odd
things that I noticed as I played through the game or that others have
let me know about. If you know of any other Easter Eggs, or interesting/
amusing bits and pieces, please let me know!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is a list of the campaign Easter Eggs that I am aware of:
=====================
The Fate of Desmond
=====================
During one of your first visits back to the 'real world' you will be tasked
with hacking one of your co-worker's computer terminals. Doing so will cause a
video that shows a bit of information about what has happened to Desmond Miles
following the ending to Assassin�s Creed III.
=====================
Watch Dogs Reference
=====================
During time spent in the 'real world', you'll often hear other employees
talking. At one point you will hear some of the employees talking about a
security firm named Blume in Chicago. THis happens to be a company mentioned in
the upcoming ubisoft title - Watch_Dogs.
=====================
Far Cry 3 Reference
=====================
Once you have come across an ocelot in the game, you will unlock a database
entry for it that can be accessed from the main menu. If you read this, there
is a note that reads �We may have to consider putting tigers and cassowaries
in these jungles too.� Referencing some of the more annoying life in Ubisoft's
Far Cry 3, also set in a tropical island setting.
=================================
Secret of Monkey Island Reference
=================================
The first assassination contract that you are able to accept in Nassau is for a
pirate named Mancomb Seepgood. This also happens to be the name of one of the
pirates in the point and click adventure game - The Secret of Monkey Island.
===================================
Assassin's creed II: Ezio Reference
===================================
In memory sequence 12-01 'A Governor No More' you need to tail an Italian
diplomat before killing him and taking his outfit. As you follow him, you may
notice that he has Roger Craig Smith's voice (the voice actor for Ezio in
Assassin's Creed II, Revelations and Brotherhood). He makes mention about how
poor Kingston's architecture is and how he misses his home, Florence.

In addition to the lengthy single player campain and its swathe of optional
side-missions and collectibles, the boffins over at Ubisoft have been good
enough to provide us with some additional downloadable content to further
expand on our piratey adventure. There has been a single piece of narrative-
driven single player content released for Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag to
date (here's hoping for more) and you can find a complete walkthrough to it

] Memory 01 - The Calm Before the Storm [ACFC01][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Locate the target ship using the spyglass. |
\ |
\ 02. Use a mortar to surprise the Templar fleet. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Naval Battle
=====================
As we begin, we�ll be sailing towards a group of ships in the distance. We
need to sink these. From a distance, pull out your spyglass and use it to look
at the largest of the four ships ahead. This is the Admiral�s ship and
identifying it with the spyglass will complete the first objective.
As you approach, use a mortar to initiate combat. This will fulfil the second
of the two optional objectives. Focus on the large ship as you move in and
continue to unleash mortars as you approach. As you arrive, veer off to one of
the sides and use your heavy shot/broadside attacks on the admiral�s ship
until it is disabled. Afterwards, take down the three escort vessels.
Fortuitously, they are quite weak so they won�t take much to destroy.
Once all of the opposition ships have been destroyed, a scene will play and a
dive spot will appear nearby. Sail over to this and dock to initiate a dive
sequence.
=====================
Part 2: Dive
=====================
From the diving bell swim directly to the northeast to find a chest beneath
the second air barrel that you come across. Loot this and use the air barrel
to refill your lungs. Swim back towards the diving bell and take a left when
you are able towards the sunken ship. Use the seaweed on the ocean bed to
avoid detection by the sharks swimming about.
As you arrive at the ship, just in front you�ll find a chest to loot. Do so
and then use a nearby air barrel if you require it. Now we need to swim
upwards towards the deck of the shipwreck. Before you arrive however, enter
the hole allowing you inside the hull. Swim to the southernmost room to find
the chest with the objective inside.
Once you have looted it, turn to the right and you�ll notice a hole in the wall
and a green objective marker indicating the diving bell in the distance. Swim
over there, using the seaweed to avoid sharks where necessary and when you
arrive, interact with it to return to the surface.
=====================
Part 3: Escape
=====================
Following the story sequence, an objective marker will appear in the distance.
Sail towards this. As you do a large number of ships will appear and converge
on your position. Continue to sail towards the marker, but try to take down
the vessel that comes at you from the right as it will ram you if you let it
get close.
Once you reach the storm, you�ll need to keep an eye on the mini-map for both
water spouts and rogue waves. Just to jog your memory, you want to avoid the
water spouts by navigating around them and we can nullify the damaging rogue
waves by piloting the ship directly into them front on. We simply need to
make it through these obstacles until we reach the marker in the distance. I
counted two of each before I arrived, so it shouldn�t be too difficult!

\ |
\______________________________________________________________________|
=====================
Part 1: Chase
=====================
Following the introductory scene, we�ll be on foot and have a nice big machete
as a weapon. As we begin, you�ll see a man marked with a red target marker
running away from you along a dirt trail. Chase after him and kill him when
you catch up with him for a scene.
At this point you will unlock the achievement/trophy �Liberation Day�.
=====================
Part 2: Tailing
=====================
For the moment at least we have a little bit of free-roam action to enjoy. Our
ultimate goal is to reach the green objective marker, but feel free to have a
look around and synchronise a waypoint or two. As we approach the objective
marker, it will expand into a green search area. The guy we need to locate is
in the north-western most part of the green zone, just next to the slave
auction. You�ll need to use Eagle Vision to tag him.
Follow the target along the street to the east using the crowds, building
corners and occasional piece of foliage as cover. He�ll only stop once as you
go, so as long as you keep your distance and don�t cause too much of a
disturbance, you can follow him without too much trouble. After he crosses the
river, he will enter a nearby building. Follow him inside.
=====================
Part 3: Eavesdrop
=====================
As you enter, the targets will be on the staircase to your left. We need to
listen to their conversation. Move over and stand with the group of patrons at
the foot of the stairs to begin the sequence. Once started, the pair will cut
a lap of the brothel bar area, making 3 stops along the way. Follow them
around the room, whilst staying within the green circle. Use the standing
patrons as cover for the first two stops and then the table with the girl and
two men along the right hand wall at the final stop.
Once the eavesdrop has been completed, approach the glowing woman. Interact
with her for a scene to end the memory.

Following the previous mission�s completion, we will again have the option for
a bit of free-roaming action on our hands if we choose to do so. Ultimately,
we need to make our way over to the green search area within the restricted
area at the plantation to the east.
=====================
Part 1: Infiltration
=====================
Once we enter the gate to the plantation, continue along the road for a short
distance until you spot a building on your left. Make your way behind this and
follow the narrow passage until you reach a shrub at the top of a wall at the
end. Activate eagle vision here and look into the cane field below to spot our
target. When it is safe to do so, hop the wall, stay in the cover of the field
and speak to her.
Having spoken to the contact, a new objective marker will appear on the map.
When the nearby guard is looking away, hop the fence near the target and
continue along the left hand side of the area using the bushes and buildings
as cover to avoid being spotted by the various guards. After passing behind
the second building, you will be close to a small, less populated dirt path
leading linking this with another plantation area to the south. Wait for the
guards to look away and run along the path to the new area. Hide in the first
cane field.
Again, when no-one is looking leave the field and follow the dirt path to the
northeast until you reach the green beam indicating the objective in a small
clearing. Approach this for a scene.
=====================
Part 2: Attack
=====================
We will find ourselves in a new location now and are given the objective of
killing all the overseers in the area. There are 14 hostiles and we�ll need to
clear them out to progress. Note that this section is the point at which the
two optional objectives are able to be achieved. We�ll be sneaky to start with
so that we can earn the assassination from above objective.
Run across the rope bridge here and enter the bush at the end. Assassinate the
guy nearby. Look off to the left and you�ll see a raised platform with one
guard on top and another patrolling from there, down to your level and then
back up again. Whistle the patroller over when you get a chance and eliminate
him. Head up the stairs now and kill the guard at the top. From here, look
back to the area below. There are another two guards standing before a bush
ahead talking. Approach them from behind and double assassinate them.
From this bush, if you look opposite of the stairs we just came from, you
should see the top of a small wooden crane. Climb up on top of this and from
here air assassinate the guard on the dock below. This will complete the first
objective.
Now that the sneakiness is no longer necessary, we need to get some guards
alerted to our presence to get the second objective done. Get spotted by one
of the remaining guards on the docks and stand near the edge of some water.
Wait for combat to begin and when you get a chance, grab a guard and throw him
into the water nearby for the objective.
Once both objectives have been met, simply kill the remaining enemies. After
killing the final overseer, approach the glowing man and interact with him for
a scene.
=====================
Part 3: Chase
=====================
Following the scene, we�ll need to chase the fellows in the boat. Immediately
run over and use the rope lift nearby, race across the platform and hop over
to the beam sticking out of the cliff face. Climb the wall on the next platform
and then run along the fairly straightforward platforming path until you arrive
outside. Quickly hop across the wooden poles to reach the island and run to
the top of the hill here for a scene to end the mission proper.

\______________________________________________________________________|
Once the scene ending the previous mission is complete, you�ll still be in the
Maroon hideout. You will have a quick tutorial flash up in regards to
liberation tasks and how they can help you. Following this, head over to the
nearby objective marker and buy some blunderbuss ammunition. Once you have
completed this task, you will be able to return to Port-au-Prince via the green
objective marker at the exit.
You�ll now also receive a quick crash course in the blunderbuss (think bad-ass
shotgun). Following the pop-ups use the blunderbuss to aim at and eliminate
the four guards ahead. We�re now free to do as we please again.
Note that the next mission will not unlock until we have recruited 20 maroons
by completing liberation side-missions. You should have a couple of recruits
in your back pocket already, but if not, no matter we are still going to have
to do some liberating at this point. To liberate maroons we can do a number of
things including:
� Attack a plantation and kill all of its guards,
� Save a fleeing slave from pursuers,
� Free slaves from cages by looting the key from a guard,
� Free slaves from a slave auction by either buying them for 500 Reales or
by killing all of the guards,
� Free slaves being escorted through the streets,
� Free slaves from punishment,
� Carry injured slaves to a safe location.
Note: for more information regarding liberation missions, some locations to
find each, and how to complete them, please look at the side-quest guide below.
Link here: [ACFCLM].
Note that liberating citizens will not always yield the same number of Maroons,
so you will likely need to accomplish a number of these tasks to continue. As
we are already at the plantation, you may as well deal with the side-mission.
Now depending on whether it is daytime or night time, you will have a different
objective.
Day Time
_____________
We need to sneak around the grounds and taking out 20 of the guards, if
this is your first attempt at a plantation, keep in mind that as you take
out guards you want to stay undetected. If you are spotted, the guards
will start killing slaves and reducing the total number that you can
rescue. Eliminating the set number of guards undetected will earn you 30
slaves and 10 maroons.
Night Time
_____________
If it is currently night time when you enter the plantation zone you will
need to find and loot a key from a target guard (usually located near the
manor house) inside the green investigation zone. Once we have his key, we
then need to make our way over to three marked doors and unlock them to
complete the side-mission. Doing so will earn you 30 slaves and 10
maroons.
Either way you go about it, once you are finished, head back to town and
complete any other tasks you feel like until you reach your quota � I would
recommend freeing at least 50 slaves in total (not maroons) to make the next
liberation sequence a little shorter.
Either way, once you have recruited the desired number of Maroons, the next
sequence will be unlocked.

\ 02. Use dancing girls to distract the guards. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
Once you have freed 20 Maroons, this quest marker will become active and is
located on a rooftop in the main city area of Port-au-Prince.
=====================
Part 1: Infiltrate
=====================
From the beginning, the game will pop-up a few screens explaining your newest
acquisition � firecrackers. When you are able, drop some firecrackers into the
alley below and note pair of guards who come to investigate (note that there
will be only one guard if you reload the checkpoint). When you are able to
move again, turn around and jump across to the roof of the building behind you.
Make your way over to the right (western side of the roof) and jump onto the
branch. Follow the treetop path until you are above a set of stairs with some
guards at the top. Look towards the base of the stairs and drop some fireworks
here) this is a great place to earn the optional objective for drawing four
guards with firecrackers) and whilst the guards are distracted, follow the
branch you are on all the way west and hop into the hay stack near the end.
Now we can either stay at ground level and work our way slowly over towards the
objective markers using the shrubs and other hiding places, or we can eliminate
the gunner on the roof further to the west and then use the rooftops to
approach the target marker. The latter option is much easier as you can use the
rope lift directly below the gunner to gain easy access to the roof to
assassinate him, or pull him to you by sitting in his line of sight for a few
seconds, then hiding.
The objective marker is highlighting a guard tower. As you approach, you�ll
want to pull out your sleep darts and hit the gunner on top of it with one of
those. At the base of the building facing the tower to the south you will find
a group of dancing girls (there is another group to the north east of the tower
as well if you mess up the optional objective the first time!).
Hire the first group and walk with them to the west. There is a sheltered
storage area with a red marker indicating a powder keg. As you approach the
shelter, have the dancing girls distract the guards here to complete the second
optional objective. Now quickly grab the flashing keg, run over and drop it
beneath the guard tower and shoot it to blow it up (don�t worry about being
detected once the second optional objective has been completed as nothing will
happen).
=====================
Part 2: Infiltrate
=====================
Once the guard tower is alight, we want to quickly run to the end of the dock
nearby and dive into the water. Swim to the far side of the ship (away from
the shore) and use the stealth swim for as long as possible to stay out of
sight and to shake off alerted guards.
Climb up the rigging near the front of the ship and climb up to the first
platform on the mast. You will probably be spotted by a gunner in the mast to
your left, but keep climbing until you reach the platform. Assassinate the
guard here and use your blow pipe to sleep the gunner on the other mast. Now
simply climb to the green hologram at the very top of the mast you are climbing
for a scene.
This will complete the mission.

Once the scene ending the previous mission is complete, you�ll now be in
control of your very own ship. Note that the next mission will not unlock
until we have attacked a slave ship and liberated its inhabitants and freed a
total of 150 slaves by completing liberation side-missions. You should have at
least 40 (or 50 if you did as I suggested earlier) freed slaves by now, so
it�s just a matter of grinding out the rest!
Fortunately, slave ships contain up to 100 slaves that we can free!
Unfortunately they are usually being escorted by groups of 2-3 frigates and
brigs. As we need to liberate one of these bad boys to continue, follow the
ship icon on the mini-map until you find it. As you approach, let loose with
your mortars on the escorts and then finish them off with some broadside/heavy
shots. Destroying these will allow you to board the slave ship. As per usual,
kill the set number of crew to free the slaves on board.
Afterwards, set sail to explore, or head back to town and complete any other
liberation tasks you feel like until you reach the requisite number. Once you
have recruited the desired number of Maroons, the next sequence will be
unlocked.

\ 02. Free the slaves from the barracks. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
Once you have freed 150 total slaves (and liberated a slave ship), this quest
marker will become active and is located back at the brothel we visited
earlier in the southeast part of the main city area of Port-au-Prince.
=====================
Part 1: Follow
=====================
From the start of the mission, follow your friend who is marked with the blue
objective marker. She�ll give you a rolling breakdown of what you�ll need to
do for the rest of the mission. After a short walk a scene will play. Once this
is done, follow the group of slaves in front of you in through the open gate
and into the restricted area containing our target.
Place the crate near the green objective marker and then follow the other NPC
marked with the blue indicator until you reach a stable area. Move over to the
green hologram a scene will play.
=====================
Part 2: Infiltrate
=====================
When we regain control, it will be night time and there will be guards
patrolling about. At this point, we need to sneak into the mansion in the
centre of the grounds. We are also able to complete the first optional
objective at this point � killing the overseer who marched you in here
previously.
From the start, look around the corner and wait for the guard here to patrol
off. Enter the bushes when he is away and then whistle him over and assassinate
him when he returns. Now turn on Eagle Vision and look along the wall until
you see the gate.
The golden target here is our assassination target for the optional objective.
Now we want to work our way along the wall using the foliage provided and wait
in the bush beneath the tree closest to the gate. Wait for the pair of guards
here to separate and then quickly sprint across the dirt road and perform a
running assassination on the golden target. Continue into the bush in the
corner of the wall ahead.
Follow the perimeter wall to the south and climb the smaller wall adjacent to
the shack here and hang from the ledge. Wait for the guard in front to face
towards the mansion and climb over and hide in the bushes behind him to take
him down. Continue to the north, using the bushes as cover until you reach
another wall. This one will have guard leaning up against it.
Look at the mini-map and wait until the other guards are far enough away and
then whistle the leaning guard over and dispatch him. Run across the dirt road
and climb the wall of the mansion up to the balcony. Look in the window to
spot our target.
=====================
Part 3: Eavesdrop
=====================
Once we see the target, the eavesdrop sequence will begin. Quickly hop over
the railing to the left and follow the targets through the house, being sure
to stay between the windows to avoid detection whilst also staying inside the
green circle. Once the targets move to the centre of the house out of range,
our objectives will update.
Climb up to the top of the roof and make your way to the south side of the
mansion. Dive into the hay stack marked with the green objective marker.
Assassinate the guard standing nearby if necessary.
When you are clear, run over to the base of the mansion and enter the stalking
zone beneath the deck with the targets on it. The eavesdropping sequence will
start up once again. As they move, hug the wall at the base of the deck and
follow them around the corner using the shrubs provided. Keep going with them
until you reach the steps blocking your path in front. At this point, the
eavesdrop sequence will be complete.
=====================
Part 4: Escape
=====================
Now that the conversation is over, the game prompts us to return to the
brothel. Before we do that however, we can earn the second optional objective �
freeing the slaves from the barracks. To do this, we need to sneak back over
to where we started the last part of the mission (working your way back up the
perimeter wall works well!) and kill the three guards now hanging out there.
Be sure to kill them quickly however as once they are aware of your presence
they will start killing the slaves.
Once you have done that, climb up on top of the slave barracks building on the
perimeter fence and climb through the hole in the iron spikes atop it to
escape the restricted area. Now make your way back to the brothel to complete
the mission.

The mission start marker will once again appear over our contact at the
brothel. So when you are ready to continue, head back inside and speak with
her to start the mission.
=====================
Part 1: Eavesdrop
=====================
Head over to the warehouse near the docks. The targets are inside. The best
way to get at them stealthily though is climbing up through the gap in the wall
on the south side of the building which you can do by approaching just to the
left of the southern doorway and using the crate next to it as cover from the
guards at the entrance to climb the wall. Eliminate the guy patrolling on the
second floor of the warehouse.
Take cover behind the wooden wall directly above the targets and listen to
their conversation. Once it is over, the screen will go black and our
objectives will update.
=====================
Part 2: Investigate
=====================
Following the conversation, five magnifying glass markers will appear on the
map, these are investigations we need to complete to finish the mission. We
need to complete at least three of them to progress, it should be noted however
that we need to complete all five to earn the first optional objective and we
cannot kill anyone during the investigations to earn the second optional
objective. Note that the not killing anybody objective appears to extend to
knocking people out whilst unarmed and doing so will void the objective for
you. So try not to!
Below are listed the five investigations and how to complete each. To find out
which is which, go to the map and hover your cursor over the marker to see
the labels for each.
1. Courier � The courier is located on the deck of the ship at the end
of the dock west of the warehouse. As you approach his
location, he will run or swim off. Follow him, tackle him
and loot him when he is on the ground to complete the
investigation.
2. Carrier � The carrier is located around 100 metres to the east of the
warehouse where the eavesdropping took place. As we arrive
in the green investigation circle, the game will prompt you
to turn on Eagle Vision to spot the target. He�ll be the
guard arm wrestling. He�ll get up and walk away. Simply
follow after him and pick pocket him when you get the
chance to finish the investigation.
3. Scientist � This investigation starts at a green hologram objective
marker located just to the west of the slave auction in the
central city area of Port-au-Prince. This requires you to
eavesdrop a pair of scientists. Use the fences here to
begin with and then climb the building when you cannot use
the fences any further. Utilise the treetop path here to
continue following them onto the next set of rooves. Drop
down to the ground when you can no longer use the rooftops
and use the citizens hanging around and shrubs to continue
following them until their conversation ends.
4. Fisherman � The fisherman is located along the beach to the south of
the warehouse where we eavesdropped on the conversation
earlier. He asks you to steal the key to a slave pen. Once
you have talked to him, an orange objective icon will
appear on the map to the northeast. Find the target and
pickpocket him when you are able. Unlock the nearby slave
pen (if you approach from behind, you can drop down and
open the door without the guards spotting you). Return to
the fisherman to complete the investigation.
5. Messenger � Located leaning up against a building just to the east to
the restricted area in the southern part of the
Port-au-Prince city area. As you get close, the game asks
you to target him with Eagle Vision, so do so. As you
approach he will run off, so chase him down and tackle him
to complete the investigation.
Once you have completed the target number of investigations, return to the
brothel and speak with your contact inside to end the mission.

Note that the next mission will not unlock until we have attacked and
liberated the wellington plantation which is located out in the Caribbean. As
such, fast travel to the Maroon�s Hideout and exit the cave here to reach your
ship outside. Get behind the wheel and get sailing! Note that this is a good
time to enter the captain�s cabin and upgrade the ship a little.
I would recommend upgrading to at least the following:
� Level 2 hull
� Level 2 cannons
� Level 2 round shot
� Level 2 heavy shot
Check out your map and set a course for the Wellington plantation which should
be a brief journey to the southwest of your current location (at co-ordinates
205,148). As you approach, you will notice a level 60 man-o-war ship sitting
just outside of it. Yep, you are going to have to attack that and destroy it.
As you approach, let it cop a few of your mortars and then continue to drop
shells on it as it heads in your direction. Once it is in range of your other
weapons, finish it off with some broadside/heavy shots. Destroying these will
allow you to dock with the Wellington Plantation zone via the highlighted
section of water nearby.
Now that we are at the plantation, go and liberate it. If you have freed a
plantation before, you just need to repeat the normal procedure depending on
the time of day.

this is your first attempt at a plantation, keep in mind that as you take

rescue. Eliminating the set number of guards undetected will earn you 30
slaves and 10 maroons.
Night Time
_____________
If it is currently night time when you enter the plantation zone you will
need to find and loot a key from a target guard (usually located near the
manor house) inside the green investigation zone. Once we have his key, we
then need to make our way over to three marked doors and unlock them to
complete the side-mission. Doing so will earn you 30 slaves and 10
maroons.
Once you have cleared out the plantation, climb the windmill and synchronise
the vantage point to unlock a fast-travel option (if you want).
Afterwards, set sail to explore, or head back to town and complete any other
liberation tasks you feel like until you are good to go. Then make your way
back to Port-au-Prince and when you are ready to continue, head back to the
brothel, go on inside and speak with our friend (she is behind a door on the
second floor this time) to start the next mission.

Once you have liberated the Wellington plantation in the Caribbean, this quest
marker will become active and is located back at the brothel we visited
earlier in the southeast part of the main city area of Port-au-Prince. Head
inside and climb the stairs to the second floor to find her.
=====================
Part 1: Tailing
=====================
Following the introductory story sequence, you�ll notice a green search area
on the map. The guy we need to locate is located just southwest and across the
dirt street from the slave auction, close to the small outdoor storage shelter.
Stick on your Eagle Vision to locate him.
Once you have located the target, he will start walking off. Quickly highlight
him with your Eagle Vision once more and continue after him. As per usual,
you�ll want to keep your distance and use the various pieces of cover (people,
bushes and buildings) to stay out of sight when he stops and looks around. You
will also need to steer clear of the wardens about and the restricted areas if
possible.
When he walks past the slave auction stage, you�ll notice that there are a few
guards about and he wanders through some restricted areas at this point. To
avoid the restricted areas, you can climb up onto the grassy ledge above the
auction stage and continue along the top of the wall here straight ahead until
you exit back onto the streets (there should be a large staircase to the left).
Our target will meet with a friend at the base of the stairs, so stay in cover
until they begin moving again.
Target both of them and follow them into the restricted area to watch them go
into the small undercover area just south of the large warehouse by the docks.
After a few moments your objectives will be updated.
=====================
Part 2: Infiltrate
=====================
We�ll now see a green objective marker beneath the open storage area that our
targets walked into. We need to get inside undetected and interact with the
glowing sheet of paper. The easiest way to do this that I found was to climb
onto the roof of the building across the street to the east of the shelter and
perform a running jump from the roofs corner to land in the bushes at the
northwest corner of the target area.
From here, you can stealth assassinate the guard nearby with his back to the
shrub and whistle over any single patrollers that wander past your posiion.
Keep your eye on the mini-map and when no guards are looking, enter the
undercover area (if you get spotted here, quickly use some crates as cover
before they see you long enough to warrant an investigation), approach the
manifest and swap it.
Now just escape the area for a scene to complete this section of the mission.
=====================
Part 3: Naval Battle
=====================
After the scene, we�ll now need to protect a ship (marked with the blue
objective marker) whilst it is attacked by a number of enemy vessels. Note that
this is the section of the mission in which we can earn the two optional
objectives. As you are doing this however, a storm will pick up, so keep on
the lookout for the occasional rogue wave during the next few minutes!
There are 7 enemy ships in total. As we approach, the ship will losing health
and be taking fire from a six schooners and a brig. Our first optional
objective asks us to destroy all six schooners before sinking the brig. As such
use your mortars from a distance as you work your way towards them to take out
as many as possible before sailing in quick and using a combination of
broadside and chase cannons to take them out hastily.
Once you have taken down all of the schooners, turn your attention to the brig.
If you have upgraded a little, this should not be too much of a challenge for
you, as long as you can prevent the escort from taking too much damage.
After the brig has been dealt with the mission will be complete.

Before we start this mission, it is a good idea to restock your ship�s ammo
supplies (especially mortars, if you use them as much as I do!).
To begin this mission, we�ll once again head inside the brothel in
Port-au-Prince. This time, we want to step into the green mission start
hologram at the base of the stairs.
After the introductory cinematic you�ll be behind the wheel of the Experto
Creed. If you look at the map, you will see that there is a green circle
indicating a slave ship named �Bourbon�. It is located at co-ordinates
(171,349) just south of the marker for Cumberland Bay on the world map.
=====================
Part 1: Naval Battle
=====================
As you approach the location, you will note that it is being escorted by 3
frigates. Use your spyglass to mark the slave ship (so you know what not to
attack!) and then pepper the escorting frigates with mortars from a distance
until they come to greet you. At this point, cut big laps and hit them with
your heavy/round shot attacks until you have sunk two of them.
When two of the three have been defeated a short scene will play and it will
show the third starting to attack the slave ship. Quickly make your way over
to its location, hitting it with mortars as you approach (to save time) and
then finish it off with a broadside or two.
The game will prompt you to go over and board the slave ship. So go and do it!
=====================
Part 2: Rescue
=====================
Once you have boarded the ship, you�ll need to head over and interact with the
hatch beneath the green hologram near the rear of the vessel�s deck.
You�ll be in a cabin that is flooded and burning at the same time. Huzzah! You
will see numerous slaves tied to beds throughout. We need to run up to the
glowing pillars by each group of slaves and interact with it. At this point
you will have to follow the on-screen button prompts to release them.
Unfortunately we only have a limited amount of time here, so we need to free
as many as possible within the timeframe. I counted seven groups of slaves in
total, but you will only need to rescue five of the seven groups to complete
the second optional objective.
After the time is up, a scene will play.
=====================
Part 3: Escape
=====================
Following the scene, you will find yourself underwater. Time to escape! Swim
through the open doorway in front of you and interact with the glowing hatch
on the floor. Descend through the hatch and turn to trace the green objective
marker, swim to the right of the support in the centre, and swim along whilst
hugging the right hand wall to avoid the moving cargo. When you reach the end,
follow the passage around to the left and swim up the open hatch that is marked
for you.
After a brief scene, Ade will surface for us. Climb up the wall to the left
and when you are able, back eject to the wall opposite. Continue to climb all
the way to the top using the handholds and fairly obvious platforming pathway
that is laid out for you.
As you arrive at the objective marker another scene will play to end the
mission.

\ Optional Objectives: |
\-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
\ 01. Kill 5 guards with the blunderbuss. |
\ |
\ 02. kill the assassination target with the branding iron. |
\_____________________________________________________________________|
To begin the ninth and final mission for the DLC, you will need to make your
way to the Maroon Hideout either by going through the secret hatch on the
ground next to the stairs in the brothel, or by fast traveling to the icon on
the world map. Once inside, run over and talk to our buddy who is marked with
the exclamation mark to begin.
=====================
Part 1: Assassinate
=====================
Make your way over to the Governor�s mansion which is conveniently indicated
by the green objective marker. As you approach it will become a wide, green
investigation area. Stand outside of the open gate with the guards blocking the
path at the south of the mansion. Stand in front of them and use Eagle vision
to look into the grounds of the courtyard beyond. This should trigger a scene
and identify the target for you.
Now pull out your blunderbuss and shoot the four guards at the gate. This will
alert the target to your presence and he will run out the gate, past you and
down towards the waterfront. You�re your blunderbuss out and shoot a guard or
two that follow him to earn the first optional objective (but be sure not to
hit the target!). Now turn and follow him, doing your best to avoid the guards
that attempt to tackle you from behind and block your path. As with any chase
sequence, try to stay within 50 metres of him at all times or you are likely
to desynchronise!
Now comes the tricky part. The target will run to a small guard training area
along the south of the city area and it is unfortunately full of guards. Add
to that the fact that you just came running through the streets with half of
the guards in the city after you and you have a difficult fight ahead! Now, you
also need to keep in mind that to earn the second optional objective, we need
to kill the target with the branding iron � this means we will need to counter
and disarm the target before killing him. As such, make sure you are unarmed
before you take him on.
Fortunately there are a few things we can do to make it easier. If you pull
out the blunderbuss, you can circle around until you gather the enemies into a
nice group and then let loose (just make sure the target does not get hit). IF
you do this 2-3 times, this will thin them out nicely, allowing you to easily
counter and kill the remaining guards.
Ensure at this point that you disarm and kill the target with the branding
iron and as he dies, a scene will play to complete the mission and the DLC.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: For completing this mission whilst killing the target with the iron you
will earn the achievement/trophy �His Own Medicine�.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: For completing this mission, you will earn the achievement/trophy �His

Just like the vanilla Assassin's Creed IV experience, in addition to the main
campaign missions, there are several types of additional side-missions to keep
you occupied whilst taking a break from the main plot or during exploration
once the credits have rolled. In the case of Freedom Cry, these are all pooled
under the banner of liberation side-missions in which you find and assist
random slaves in and around port-au-prince and the Caribbean.
It should be noted that all liberation missions bar the Slave Ships and
plantations can be found within the confines of the City area of
Port-au-Prince (and even then, there are three plantations in the greater
Port-au-Prince area). Slave ships can be attempted after you acquire the ship,
as can the three plantations located in the Caribbean sea.

] Auctions [ACFCS1][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 3, Slaves x 2 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
In several locations throughout Port-au-Prince you will find slave auctions.
These comprise a number of slaves tied up in a line, with an auctioneer and a
number of guards located nearby. There are two ways to resolve these slave
auction side-tasks.
1. Firstly we can approach the auctioneer and interact with him to purchase
the slaves for 500 Reales.
2. Alternatively, we can kill the auctioneer and all the nearby guards,
and then interacting with the slaves to free them.
Here are some of the mission locations:
1. In the northeast corner of the city area of Port-au-Prince, just west of
the Governer's mansion.
2. Just north of and directly across the road from the building with the
viewpoint in the city area of Port-au-prince.

] Escapes [ACFCS2][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 1, Slaves x 0 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
As you walk around the main city area of Port-au-Prince, you will every so
often get a prompt to fto save a freeing slave from a pursuer. Do do this, we
need to simply find the slave on the mini-map and then identify and kill his
the guard that is chasing after him. As long as you kill the guard before he
catches up with the slave, you will complete the task.
Here are some of the mission locations:
1. Just northwest of the brothel where you recieve the majority of your
missions. This is marked by a Maroon Store icon on the map, close to the
Est-bourbon plantation.
2. Close to the southern boundry of the map, almost directly south of the
viewpoint in the city section of Port-au-prince.
3. In the very northeast corner of the city area, close to the path leading
to the Brousse du Nord-Est plantation area of Port-au-Prince, just
northwest of the Governer's mansion.

] Injuries [ACFCS3][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 2, Slaves x 3 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
In Port-au-Prince there are a number of locations where you will find injured
slaves sitting on the ground. To complete the liberation task associated with
these guys, we need to pick them up and carry them to an objective marker that
appears once you are holding them, avoiding guards and jailers along the way.
As you arrive, you will complete the task.
Here are some of the mission locations:
1. At the very southern end of the city portion of Port-au-Prince, almost
directly south of the viewpoint in this area.
2. Just to the west of the Maroon Store icon on the map closest to the
Brousse du Nord-Est plantation, north east of the Port-au-Prince city
area.
3. In the very northeast corner of the city area, close to the path leading
to the Brousse du Nord-Est plantation area of Port-au-Prince, just
northwest of the Governer's mansion.

] Jail [ACFCS4][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 2, Slaves x 2 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
There are a number of cages scattered around Port-au-Prince which are often
containing slaves. We can free them by finding a nearby guard in possession of
a key. Usually when you arrive at one such cage, an orange objective marker
will appear on the map to identify the location of the target guard. Obtain
the key from him and use it on the cage to complete the task.
Note that most of these cages have a restricted area around them, so you will
either have to be sneaky, or kill all the enemies in the zone and return to
anonymous to interact with the cage.
Here are some of the mission locations:
1. Just north of the viewpoint in the city area of Port-au-prince.
2. In the northeast corner of the city area of Port-au-Prince, just west of
the auction close to the entrance to the Governer's mansion.
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Plantations [ACFCS5][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 10, Slaves x 30 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
Plantations are one of the biggest additions to the game in Freedom Cry and
they act as ad-lib infiltration missions that you can attempt at any time,
providing the target plantation is not abandoned.
Now depending on whether it is daytime or night time, you will have a different
objective.
Day Time
_____________
We need to sneak around the grounds and taking out 20 of the guards, if
this is your first attempt at a plantation, keep in mind that as you take
out guards you want to stay undetected. If you are spotted, the guards
will start killing slaves and reducing the total number that you can
rescue. Eliminating the set number of guards undetected will earn you 30
slaves and 10 maroons.
Night Time
_____________
If it is currently night time when you enter the plantation zone you will
need to find and loot a key from a target guard (usually located near the
manor house) inside the green investigation zone. Once we have his key, we
then need to make our way over to three marked doors and unlock them to
complete the side-mission. Doing so will earn you 30 slaves and 10
maroons.
Here are some of the mission locations:
There are six plantations in the DLC. Three are located in the Port-au-Prince
area and there are a further 3 around the caribbean that you will need to sail
to.
1. (418,246) Brousse du Nord-Est (North Eastern Port-au-Prince)
2. (418,246) Est-Bourbon (South-Eastern Port-au-Prince)
3. (418,246) Lagon Nord (Northern Port-au-Prince)
4. (231,376) Montez
5. (377,371) Tortuga
6. (205,148) Wellington

] Punishment [ACFCS6][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 2, Slaves x 0 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
This particular side-quest can be found in Port-au-Prince. When you see the
event, there will be a pair of slaves tied to a wall with a guard beating on
them. Two other guards are usually standing guard nearby. To complete the task,
kill all three guards and interact with the slaves. Easy!
Here are some of the mission locations:
1. On the path linking the main Port-au-prince city area with the
Lagon-Nord plantation to the north.
2. In the yard of the building just to the east of the warehouse to the
north of the dock area.
3. At the base of the building with the viewpoint in the city section of
Port-au-Prince.

/ \
] Slave Convoys [ACFCS7][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 2, Slaves x 1 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
In the city portion of Port-au-Prince, you will occasionally see slaves being
escorted through the streets by a number of guards. A yellow circle appears
around them on the mini-map, so if you step inside it you will be detected and
the guards will start killing the slaves. We need to assassinate all of the
escort guards before they kill any slaves to complete the task.
Here are some of the mission locations:
1. Walking along the main street from north to south just to the east of
the dock area.
2. Walking along the main street from north to south just to the west of
the dock area.
____________________________________________________________________________
/ \
] Slave Ships [ACFCS8][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
\ Rewards: Maroons x 10, Slaves x 90 |
\_________________________________________________________________________|
Slave ships contain up to 100 slaves that we can free! Unfortunately though
they are usually being escorted by groups of 2-3 frigates and brigs. As we need
to liberate one of these bad boys to continue, follow the ship icon on the
mini-map until you find it. As you approach, let loose with your mortars on the
escorts and then finish them off with some broadside/heavy shots. Destroying
these will allow you to board the slave ship. As per usual, kill the set number
of crew to free the slaves on board.
Here are some of the mission locations:
Unfortunately there are no set locations for the slave ships, however when you
identify them on the world map, an icon will appear to give you their location.
Then its a simple matter of sailing over and taking its convoy down.

There are a number of rewards that can be unlocked by completing various
numbers of liberation tasks, corresponding to the accumulated number of slaves
that you free or maroons you recruit. There are 10 rewards to unlock for each.
Liberation rewards refer to those unlocked by freeing slaves, resistance
rewards are earned by recruiting maroons. For a more in-depth look at the tasks
and some hints and tips on how to accomplish each please check out the side
mission guide above [ACFCSD].
Once you have unlocked some rewards, you can either purchase them via a shop
in the case of weapons or item/ammo pouch upgrades or they will passively come
into effect in the case of additional resistance fighters and crew members.
Here is a list of the rewards in the game, and how many slaves/maroons are
required to be completed before they are unlocked.

| Freedom Cry Collectible Locations |
|___________________________________|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
===============================================================================
There is a plethora of Collectibles littered throughout the DLC's game world
in Port-au-Prince itself as well as secondary locations such as shipwrecks,
plantations and on one or two of the little islands scattered about the
Caribbean zone.
The collectibles come in a couple of flavours. This collectible locations guide
will give you a brief description of each type of collectible, a brief intro on
how and what they are used for and then a complete list of all of the different
collectibles in the game sorted by the locations available. I have included a
brief description for the location of each collectible to assist you in finding
them.
Note that climbing and synchronising viewpoints will reveal all of the various
collectibles on the mini-map, so you should definitely consider doing so prior
to starting your hunt!
The different collectibles include:
> 63 Treasure Chests
_____________________
There are an abundance of treasure chests scattered across the Caribbean.
They appear as your stock, standard chest and can be opened by approaching
them and using the interact button when the prompt appears to do so. These
often contain various sums of Reales and reagents. They are not only found
all over Port-au-Prince but also in the abandoned ruins, shipwreck dive
sites and on uncharted islands in the middle of the ocean as well.
Fortunately, collecting all of these is not required to complete the DLC
at 100% synchronisation.
> 5 Secrets
_____________________
There are a good number of secrets hidden around the caribbean island
locations that you can visit in the free-roaming naval area. Unlike the
secrets in the main game, these secrets are incredibly useful and provide
players with new weapons and upgrades to make Adewale even more of a force
to be reckoned with.
Fortunately, collecting all of these is not required to complete the DLC
at 100% synchronisation.

| Freedom Cry DLC |
| Achievements/Trophies Unlock Guide |
|____________________________________|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
===============================================================================
AC4's Freedom Cry DLC has a total of 6 achievements and 6 trophies. These are
awarded for experiencing the single player campaign, checking out some of the
game's many liberation side-missions and playing around with some of the new
gadgets. Below you'll find a list of the achievements/trophies in the game
and how you can unlock each one.

] Freedom Cry Achievements/Trophies [ACFCT1][
\____________________________________________________________________________/
There are 6 achievements/trophies tied into the games combat system and
performing various tasks whilst in combat. Here's a list of said achievements/
trophies and how to accomplish each:
___________________________ ______________________________________________
/ \/ \
] Achievement/Trophy Name [] Description & Unlock Guide [
\___________________________/\______________________________________________/
| His Word Was �Perhaps� | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Freedom Cry - Completed all missions. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Complete all nine DLC memory sequences and |
| | you will unlock this achievement/trophy. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| His Own Medicine | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Complete the second optional mission |
| | objective in the final memory. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | To do this, we need to simply kill the target|
| | with the branding iron that he is holding |
| | during most of the mission. To do so, get him|
| | into a combat situation whilst being unarmed,|
| | counter and disarm him to acquire the brand |
| | and then just attack him until you can finish|
| | him off. Doing so will unlock this one. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| His Full Attention | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Freedom Cry - Achieve 100% synchronization. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Fortunately achieving 100% sync in Freedom |
| | Cry is much easier than the full game as all |
| | you need to do is complete all of the |
| | optional mission objectives on each mission |
| | to earn it. To do so, simply follow the |
| | walkthroughs above! |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Liberation Day | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Free your first slave. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | Liberating slaves will take up a fair bit of |
| | time, to begin with though, you will have to |
| | save a fleeing slave at the start of the |
| | second memory from a pursuer. Doing so will |
| | unlock the achievement/trophy. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Seeds of Independence | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Liberate 500 slaves. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | To liberate slaves we can do a number of side|
| | missions around Port-Au-Prince and the other,|
| | smaller caribbean locations. These include: |
| | |
| | > Attacking a plantation and killing all of |
| | its guards. |
| | > Save a fleeing slave from pursuers. |
| | > Free slaves from cages by looting the key |
| | from a guard. |
| | > Free slaves from a slave auction by either|
| | buying them for 500 Reales or by killing |
| | all of the guards. |
| | > Free slaves being escorted through the |
| | streets. |
| | > Free slaves from punishment. |
| | > Carry injured slaves to a safe location. |
| | > Board a slave ship. |
| | |
| | Once you have undertaken enough of these to |
| | accumulate 500 slaves in total, you will |
| | unlock this achievement/trophy. |
| | |
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------+----------------------------------------------|
| Firepower | Description: |
| | ============ |
| | Kill 5 guards at once with a blunderbuss. |
| | |
| |----------------------------------------------|
| | How to unlock: |
| | ============== |
| | To do as the description says, you will need |
| | to rope in a good number of guards by |
| | triggering an alert. Then pull out the |
| | blunderbus and circle around them to get them|
| | to stack up and group together, then fire |
| | away! A great place to do this is during the |
| | fight in the assassination mission in the |
| | final memory as you will have 10-15 guards |
| | wanting to take you at once. There is a good |
| | spread ont he weapon so as long as you can |
| | see more thn 5 guards when you unleash, it |
| | should have the desired effect! |

Donations
===============================================================================
After a few generous emails and suggestions from readers and because donations
seems to be a growing trend among other contemporary guide writers, I have
decided to put in the option to allow you to donate some money to me for
helping you out if you wish to do so.
Although I make these guides for free in my spare time, I probably don�t
need to point out to gamers that purchasing games is an extremely expensive
hobby (games in Australia cost on average $90 - $120) and writing guides for
them can be a very long, incredibly difficult and thankless task at the best
of times, but one that is very challenging and occasionally rewarding.
Considering you could be paying upwards of $20+ for guides in a game shop,these
free and easily available guides make a cost-effective substitute. Whilst most
are happy to use and move on without a word I would move that a simple donation
is a great, easy way to say thanks if you feel that my guide has saved you some
time, money and frustration in some small way.
By no means feel obligated to donate just for viewing my guide, but if you are
feeling a little generous I certainly won�t object! Any amount is appreciated
whether it be 10 cents or $10.
Thankyou far all that read this far, if you are interested in donating, my
Paypal address is listed below, if not, why not send me an email or join my
Facebook page and give me a shout out!
