Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag Contract 15 Walkthrough

AntMag.NET

Alright, so you've picked up Contract 15: A Personal Matter. This one's a bit of a fight, so let's get you prepped. You'll start this contract down at Navassa. Your main goal is to track down and sink a specific frigate, and you'll be rewarded with 1800 R for your troubles. The difficulty is rated 4 out of 5, so keep your wits about you!

Walkthrough

1
First things first, you need to find your target. Open up your map – you'll see a big, green investigation zone just east of Navassa. Sail on over there. Once you're in the zone, use your spyglass to pinpoint the exact ship. I found mine at coordinates 764,196, so keep an eye out around there.
2
Once you've spotted it, engage the target frigate. This ship is a decent frigate, packing a good amount of armor and capable of dishing out some damage. As you close in, I recommend using your mortars to chip away at its health before getting into close range. Then, switch to your usual combo of chase cannon, heavy shot, and broadsides to finish it off.
3
Now, here's where things get tricky: as you're fighting the target frigate, two more frigates will show up to join the party. You've got to be quick! These three frigates can overwhelm even a tough ship if you're not careful. Get in close and unleash a heavy shot attack as soon as possible.
4
Once you've damaged the target frigate enough to incapacitate it, you have a choice: you can either board it and destroy it the old-fashioned way, or if you're in a real hurry, just sink it with your cannons. Either way, once that ship is gone, the contract is complete!

Tips

Speed is key here. Don't let those escort frigates gang up on you for too long. Focus fire on the main target when you can, but be ready to defend yourself against the others.
Mortars are great for softening up the target frigate from a distance before you get into the thick of it.
If you're low on health or ammo, consider using the environment or evasive maneuvers to buy yourself some time to repair or reload.
