After the initial scene, you must tail a courier carrying a package.
2
The courier can run and will speed up at certain points.
3
Your best approach is to stay on the rooftops to maintain speed and avoid obstacles.
4
Be mindful of your camera angle; if obstructions block your view on screen, a timer starts. Use the Right Analog Stick to keep the courier in view.
5
If you choose to follow on foot, be aware that the courier turns around periodically. Stay out of sight when he stops. Avoid the ground route if possible, as he passes guards.

When the courier begins climbing, you need to follow him more directly from the rooftops to avoid losing sight of him.

Upon reaching his destination, he will store the package. You have 120 seconds to kill him and take his armor.

Use the ladder near the guards to reach the rooftop.

To avoid detection by archers, take a circular, counter-clockwise route back towards the target area.

Tips

Staying on rooftops is generally faster and easier, but be prepared for some difficult gaps.
Minimize climbing, especially when the courier starts running.
Manipulate the camera to prevent objects from blocking your view and starting a timer.
If following on foot, stay out of sight when the courier stops, as he may turn around.
When the courier climbs, switch to a more direct rooftop pursuit.
To avoid archers, use a circular route or the canal.
Be aware of the guard near the canal and assassinate him when opportune.
Stealth is crucial for the final assassination; avoid close proximity to archers.
