Assassin’s Creed III Walkthrough

Optional objective/s:

• Limit environmental damage to the ship to less than 20%
• Stay within 500 meters of the schooner once the chase section begins
• Achieve a combo kill streak of at least 3
• Complete all objectives in one playthrough.

After the previous mission has been completed, talk to your friend on the docks to start the mission.

Part 1 – Sailing

Pilot the ship through the passage until you reach an open area with a ship parked off to the right. Go and pilot the ship over to investigate.

Part 2 – Naval Chase

After a short moment, another ship will appear nearby, follow it. This is a chase sequence similar to some of those we’ve had on foot in some of the earlier missions, we need to track down and catch up to the enemy ship. Note that there is an optional objective to stay within 500 meters of the enemy schooner. So be sure to keep your speed up, but watch out for rogue waves and lower your sails only when necessary to steer more accurately.

Part 3 – Naval Battle

When you reach the open water, a group of ships will ambush you. Use your weapons to take down all four of the ships with red markers. The ship that has the golden objective marker needs to be taken down with the chain shot and then boarded. Don’t forget to look out for the red indicator in the water that will let you know fire is about to come in and take cover appropriately. Once the four ships have been eliminated focus on the target vessel. Once you have hit it with a few chain shots, it will stop moving. Crash your boat into it to board it.

Part 4 – Brawling

Note that whilst on board the enemy ship, you will have an optional objective to perform a kill streak of at least three, so keep that in mind as you engage the enemies. To start with, you need to kill all three officers on the deck. They have red objective markers to make things easier. Once all three are dead, you’ll be given access to the lower decks.

Work your way over to the door to the right and enter the door at the end and hit the attack button when prompted to complete the mission and sequence 9.

Note: For completing sequence 9 you will earn the achievement/trophy ‘Two if by Sea’.
