Burning ships are random encounters in Black Flag RESYNCED, making this one of the more luck-based trophies. Not every burning ship has a chair on its deck, so you’ll need to find one that does. Before boarding, use your Spyglass to check whether a chair is visible on the deck. If there isn’t one, simply restart the checkpoint and wait for another burning ship to spawn. Once you find a burning ship with a chair, board it and sit down to unlock the trophy.

To restore treasure maps, you must first unlock the Treasure Dealer by constructing the appropriate building at your Great Inagua hideout. The Treasure Dealer offers exclusive items and a Map Restoration service. Restoring maps requires Reales and various resources, such as Tobacco, which can be obtained by boarding ships or completing Kenway’s Fleet missions. Restore every available map piece to unlock the trophy.

This activity returns from the original game and was once one of the most important ways to earn Crew. You’ll occasionally encounter pirates being attacked by Privateers, and your objective is to rescue them. For this trophy, you must save every pirate during the encounter—none of them can die. The only enemies that should be defeated are the Privateers. Once you’ve successfully rescued the entire group, the trophy will unlock.

To open a Smuggler’s Chest, you first need to locate one of the Smuggler’s Dens (Coves) scattered across the map. One easy example is Petite Caverne at coordinates (864, 237). Before you can unlock the chest, you’ll need to obtain its key from the local smuggler. You can either kill him or pickpocket the key without being detected. Once you have the key, simply return to the Smuggler’s Chest and open it to make progress toward the trophy.

Templar Hunt missions become available after completing Act 1, roughly 3–4 hours into the main story. Once unlocked, you’ll notice new Templar Hunt icons appearing on the world map and in the quest menu. Just like in the original Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, you only need to complete one Templar Hunt sequence to unlock this trophy. However, if you’re aiming for 100% completion or want to unlock the Templar Outfit, you’ll eventually need to complete all Templar Hunt missions. Doing so rewards you with Templar Keys, which can be used to unlock the special armor inside your mansion at Great Inagua.

This trophy can be earned in any restricted area that contains an alarm bell, such as a Warehouse. Every location marked with a house icon on the world map has a warehouse, while larger settlements like Kingston, Nassau, and others also feature restricted areas with alarm bells. Start by eliminating the gunmen stationed on elevated platforms, as they can make this trophy unnecessarily difficult. Once they’re dealt with, allow the remaining guards to spot you. One of them will have a red bell icon above his head, indicating that he’ll attempt to alert reinforcements. Let him reach the bell and begin ringing it. As soon as the animation starts, quickly draw your pistols and shoot him.

This trophy is cumulative, meaning the three successful dodges do not have to be performed during a single encounter. To make a wild pig charge, keep your distance and watch its behavior. Before attacking, the pig will step backward, similar to a bull preparing to charge. Once it rushes toward you, press Circle (◯) at the right moment to perform a dodge. Successfully dodge the pig’s charge attack three times in total, and the trophy will unlock.

During a Great White Shark harpooning activity, land a perfect harpoon shot. Perect harpoon shot means the moment your aiming pointer glows. Press R2 to start hitting the spear and the moment it glows release it.

On of the earliest opportunities is during the main mission This Tyro Captain. The location of this mission is on Abaco Island (582,808) so if you miss it, you can get back later. Trophy seems confusing at first and you don’t need to parry 2 ocelots, but 2 ocelot attacks consecutively. Whichh means only one ocelot is enough, but you can usually find them in pair. Parry with blue effect 2 times in a row and the trophy will unlock.

This trophy is much easier than it sounds. You only need to achieve 100% completion in one location, not the entire game. Since there are 52 discoverable locations, simply choose one of the smaller islands with only a handful of activities. Activities that count toward location completion include: Viewpoints, Chests, Animus Fragments, Shanties (Song Sheets), Secrets (Bottles & Treasure Maps), Assassin Contracts, Taverns, Mayan Stelae, Once a location reaches 100% completion, its icon on the world map will change from white to gold, indicating that everything there has been completed. One of the easiest locations for this trophy is Abaco island at coordinates (749, 625). It contains only a small number of collectibles and activities, making it an ideal choice. Tip: Always synchronize the Viewpoint first. This instantly reveals every collectible and activity in the area, making cleanup much faster

In Black Flag RESYNCED, you’ll unlock the Rope Dart much earlier than in the original game—during Sequence 3. To perform a hanging assassination, climb onto a tree branch positioned above an enemy. When an enemy walks underneath you, you’ll see two prompts: R1 to Hang and △ (Triangle) to perform a standard Air Assassination. Always choose R1 (Hang). Repeat this until you’ve performed 10 hanging kills in total. The trophy is cumulative, so the kills do not need to be completed in a single session. Once you reach your tenth hanging assassination, the trophy will unlock.

This trophy is very straightforward. You simply need to catch 5 enemies with a single Smoke Bomb. One of the easiest opportunities comes early in the story during the Rescue the Sage mission. At one point, you’ll need to identify a guard carrying a key, and he’ll be surrounded by a large group of enemies. Wait until the guards are tightly grouped together, then throw a Smoke Bomb into the middle of the crowd. If at least 5 enemies are caught in the smoke at once, the trophy will unlock immediately. This is by far the simplest and earliest place to earn it.

The easiest way to earn this trophy is to upgrade your Pistol Holster to Level 4 as early as possible, allowing you to carry four loaded pistols at once. Hunt the required animals to gather the hides needed for the upgrade—it’s quick and easy in RESYNCED, thanks to the abundance of wildlife. Once you’ve upgraded your holster, simply board an enemy ship. During the boarding sequence, enemies tend to gather in large groups, making this the perfect place to line up four quick kills. Pull out your pistols and fire as fast as possible to eliminate four enemies within the five-second time limit. You’ll likely attempt this many times while boarding ships throughout the game, so don’t worry if you don’t get it immediately. Tip: Better pistols deal more damage and make the trophy even easier. I personally used the Darkworker’s Pistols from the Deluxe Edition, but any high-damage pistol set will work just fine.

This is one of the easiest trophies in the game and will most likely unlock naturally during the story. To perform a Wall Takedown, fight an enemy while they’re standing with their back against a wall, staircase, or other solid surface. During combat, Edward will automatically slam the enemy into the surface, performing the special takedown. Since you’ll engage in countless melee fights throughout the game, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to trigger this move, making this an almost automatic trophy for most players.

To unlock this trophy, you must perform four takedowns after executing a Perfect Parry. Before you can do that, you’ll need to obtain a pair of swords that give you 4 takedowns. These can be found through exploration or purchased from weapon vendors. In the Weapons menu, each sword lists its unique perks, including whether it provides Takedowns and how many of them are available. Equip a sword with the 4 takedowns, perform a Perfect Parry, then immediately follow it with a multiple takedowns. Repeat the process until you’ve successfully performed four takedowns to unlock the trophy.

This trophy also seems confusing, however it is pretty simple. Step 1 is to board the ship and go very near to the deck and find one or two enemies close by. Step 2 is to throw a smoke bomb and they will be affected and stand still. Step 3 now is to again use L2 and use your berserk darts which can be switched between sleep darts (be sure to have the right one equipped). After you have hit one of the guys with berserks, now use R2 + SQUARE (kick) to push him over the deck, or if he doesn’t want to go over the deck, try doing the takedown as Edward will automatically push him over.

This is a story-related trophy and cannot be missed. Simply progress through the main story until you complete Sequence 2, Memory 1, where Edward receives a guided tour of Havana. The trophy will unlock automatically upon completing the memory.

Visit any tavern and purchase a bottle of rum from the bartender for 5 Reales. Keep drinking until Edward has consumed five bottles in a single session. He’ll eventually pass out and wake up in a nearby haystack, unlocking the trophy. There’s no special requirement—any tavern in the game works.

To unlock this trophy, you must capture and own at least one of every ship type in Kenway’s Fleet. There are four classes of ships: Schooners, Brigs, Frigates, and Man O’ Wars. Each ship has different strengths, cargo capacity, and durability, making them better suited for specific trading routes. Capture one of each class by boarding enemy vessels and add them to your fleet. Once all four ship types have been collected, the trophy will unlock.

Kenway’s Fleet Ship Types

• Schooner — Fast and agile, best for high-risk routes with lower cargo requirements.
• Brig — Balanced ship with medium cargo capacity, ideal for short and medium voyages.
• Frigate — High firepower with solid cargo space, perfect for medium and long trading routes.
• Man O’ War — The strongest ship class, offering massive cargo capacity and exceptional durability for the most dangerous routes.

Lead Convoy ships appear randomly on the world map and remain available for only a few minutes before disappearing. They’re easy to identify, as the main convoy ship is escorted by two additional ships. Simply defeat the escorts if needed and board the Lead Convoy ship to unlock the trophy. As an added bonus, you’ll receive 2,000 Reales for capturing it.

During a storm at sea, survive a rogue wave hitting the Jackdaw from the side. You might just need to upgrade your hull armor a bit, just to be able to survive. Also I would like to point out that I rarely encountered huge waves, so the first one you see it, go for it.

This is one of the easiest trophies in the game. Every major city contains several Sea Shanties scattered across rooftops. Simply chase down and collect your first Sea Shanty to unlock the trophy. If it escapes, just try again or find another one nearby.

You will learn RAM ability (extra) from new officer Padre. You can use L1+R1 to use this ability. With spyglass you can find a brig. Use mortars from a far to get their attention. Once they start going for you, they will try to ram you. Use the ability first on them and the trophy will unlock.

Raise your Wanted level to the maximum, then defeat a Pirate Hunter ship. There are many easy ships such as cutters and schooners, which when you are much stronger later, you can easily just ram and destroy. This will also gain your wanted level. You can also combine it with weekly animus quest for destroying 15 cutters. Once you are wanted level 4, two pirate hunters Man of wars will arrive. Definitely be ready for the battle because they are not easy. As soon as you notice them, try to use mortarts as much as you can, they will come near you already at half health. Now you can use ram or heavy shot to finish them off. One pro tip is that you can always leave one ship aside as stand by if you will need to repair ship.

To unlock this trophy, you’ll first need to complete Lucy’s Officer questline and recruit her to your crew. Once unlocked, equip her as an Officer to gain the Perfect Brace ability. During naval combat, perform three Perfect Braces by activating Brace at the last possible moment before an enemy attack hits. Successfully executing this three times will unlock the trophy.

This is an automatic story related trophy that canno’t be missed. This is a new addition in Resynced.

Visit the Jackdaw Customization menu and equip a cosmetic item in every available customization slot. The items don’t need to be expensive or match—simply having every slot filled with a cosmetic is enough to unlock the trophy.

Crafting is an important part of progression, as it unlocks upgrades such as health, ammo pouches, pistol holsters, and other equipment. Hunt the required animals, collect the necessary pelts, and craft any upgrade from the Crafting menu. Your first crafted item will immediately unlock the trophy.

Food can be found throughout the world in the form of berries, fruit, soups, and other consumable items. Consume a total of 20 food items to unlock this trophy. Progress is cumulative, but keep in mind that Remedies (health potions) do not count, so focus on collecting and eating food found in the environment during your exploration.

To unlock this trophy, you must find and interact with all seven friendly animals scattered throughout the Caribbean. These encounters appear as World Events on the map, so whenever you spot an event icon, make it a priority to investigate it. Below you’ll find a complete video walkthrough and the locations of all seven friendly animals to help you unlock the trophy as quickly as possible.

Visit Long Bay and shoot down every hanging body found in the area.

Swim down to the lowest point available on the map.

Break a total of 50 potted plants found on windowsills, balconies, rooftops, and around buildings throughout the game. You’ll encounter plenty of them while free-running through cities, so simply play normally and smash any pots in your path. With regular exploration, this trophy should unlock naturally without any dedicated grinding.

Swim a total of 1,000 meters underwater outside of underwater shipwreck sections.
