Sequence 3

Welcome, Assassin, to Sequence 3! This pivotal sequence sees you delving deeper into the colonial world, honing your skills, and making crucial connections. Prepare for a mix of stealth, combat, and exploration as you navigate the bustling streets and untamed wilderness.

Memory 1: The Expert and the Apprentice

Your journey begins with a crucial meeting. Follow the objective marker to the tavern in Boston to meet Achilles Davenport. This memory serves as an introduction to your new mentor and the Assassin Order's presence in the colonies.

  • Objective: Meet Achilles Davenport.
  • Location: The Green Dragon Tavern, Boston.
  • Strategy: Simply follow the on-screen prompts and the yellow objective marker on your mini-map. Engage in the cinematic conversation to progress.
  • Reward: Access to the Homestead, new crafting recipes, and the ability to recruit artisans.

Memory 2: Journey to the Homestead

Achilles will instruct you to travel to the Davenport Homestead. This will be your base of operations for much of the game, so familiarize yourself with the route.

  • Objective: Travel to the Davenport Homestead.
  • Location: The Frontier.
  • Strategy:
    1. Exit Boston through the main gate.
    2. Follow the main road leading into the Frontier.
    3. Keep an eye out for the Homestead icon on your map. The journey will involve traversing open wilderness.
    4. Optional: Along the way, you may encounter wildlife. Practice your hunting skills by taking down a Deer or Rabbit using your Hidden Blade or Tomahawk for clean kills and valuable pelts.
  • Reward: Unlocks the Homestead region and side activities.

Memory 3: River Rescue

Upon arriving at the Homestead, you'll immediately be thrust into action. A local artisan, Norris, is in trouble near the river.

  • Objective: Rescue Norris from the Templars.
  • Location: Near the riverbank, south of the Homestead manor.
  • Strategy:
    1. Approach the riverbank stealthily. Use the tall grass and bushes for cover.
    2. Identify the three Templar guards holding Norris captive.
    3. Optional Challenge: Perform a Double Assassination on two guards simultaneously if they are close enough.
    4. Eliminate all guards. The Counter-Kill technique will be invaluable here.
    5. Speak to Norris to complete the memory.
  • Reward: Norris joins the Homestead, unlocking the Woodworker artisan class and new crafting options.

Memory 4: The Hard Way

Achilles will now begin your formal Assassin training. This memory focuses on advanced combat techniques and stealth.

  • Objective: Complete Achilles' combat and stealth training.
  • Location: The training grounds behind the Homestead manor.
  • Strategy:
    1. Combat Training: Follow Achilles' instructions to practice Disarms, Tool Combos (e.g., using a Smoke Bomb followed by multiple kills), and Chain Kills.
    2. Stealth Training: Learn to use environmental elements for cover, perform Corner Assassinations, and utilize Ledge Assassinations. Pay close attention to enemy patrol routes.
    3. Successfully complete all training exercises to satisfy Achilles.
  • Reward: Enhanced combat and stealth abilities, new tutorials for advanced techniques.

Memory 5: The Surgeon's Demands

Your next task involves recruiting another essential artisan for the Homestead: Dr. Lyle White, the surgeon. He requires specific ingredients for his work.

  • Objective: Gather ingredients for Dr. Lyle White.
  • Location: The Frontier wilderness.
  • Required Items:
    • Bear Pelt (x1): Hunt a Black Bear. Bears are typically found in dense forest areas; listen for their growls. Use a Bow and Arrow for a clean kill from a distance, or engage in close combat with your Tomahawk and Hidden Blade (be prepared to counter its attacks).
    • Beaver Pelt (x2): Locate Beavers near rivers and lakes. They are small and quick, so a well-aimed shot with the Bow or a quick Hidden Blade attack is recommended.
    • Deer Heart (x1): Hunt a Deer. These are common throughout the Frontier. A silent kill with the Bow is ideal to avoid startling other wildlife.
  • Strategy: Use your Eagle Vision (press L3/LS) to highlight animals in the environment, making them easier to track. Once you have all the ingredients, return to Dr. White at the Homestead.
  • Reward: Dr. Lyle White joins the Homestead, unlocking the Doctor artisan class and access to crafting Medicines and other consumables.

Memory 6: The Architect's Request

To further develop your Homestead, you'll need an architect. Godfrey and Terry, two lumberjacks, can help, but they have a problem with a local gang.

  • Objective: Help Godfrey and Terry deal with the gang.
  • Location: A small lumber camp in the Frontier, marked on your map.
  • Strategy:
    1. Approach the lumber camp cautiously. There will be several gang members guarding the area.
    2. Utilize stealth to thin out the numbers. Air Assassinations from trees or Bush Assassinations are effective.
    3. Engage any remaining enemies in open combat. Remember your new combat techniques from Achilles' training.
    4. After clearing the area, speak to Godfrey and Terry.
  • Reward: Godfrey and Terry join the Homestead, unlocking the Lumberer artisan class and new building options for the Homestead.

With these memories complete, you've laid a strong foundation for your journey as an Assassin. The Homestead is now growing, and you've honed crucial skills. Prepare for more challenges in Sequence 4!
