Assassins Creed Black Flag Resynced Walkthrough Guide

The Assassins Creed Black Flag Resynced walkthrough is a sequence of main story memories, naval upgrades, and regional conquests centered on Edward Kenway. Completing the campaign requires balancing Jackdaw fleet progression, officer recruitments, and tracking the elusive Observatory across the Caribbean.

How Do You Progress Through the Nassau and Charles Town Sequences?

Nassau is the initial staging ground where Edward Kenway allies with Edward Thatch and Benjamin Hornigold to combat sickness spreading through the pirate republic. The early campaign tasks you with securing medical supplies without drawing Royal Navy aggression into the cove.

To reach sunken vessels along the Florida coast, you must acquire diving gear. Adewale points out a camp of freebooters in southern Nassau who agreed to accept the king's pardon and left their equipment behind. Infiltrating this camp grants access to the diving bell, which lowers from the Jackdaw deck to access submerged shipwrecks like the San Ignacio wreck. Submerged recovery segments require moving between air pockets and schools of fish to avoid patrolling sharks.

Following the Nassau operations, the pursuit of medicines moves north to Charles Town, South Carolina. Stede Bonnet departs on his own vessel, the Revenge, while Blackbeard blockades the harbor and holds merchant hostages. You must guide the Jackdaw through foggy, shallow river bayous, dock stealthily, and pursue soldiers across the swamp into a fortified plantation estate. Striking the officer inside secures the supply key and two crates of medicine needed to temporarily stabilize Nassau.

Which Boarding Choice Fits Your Fleet Strategy?

Naval boarding is the primary mechanic for restoring ship durability, reducing bounty pressure, and building your personal merchant armada. Once an enemy vessel's health drops to zero, steering the Jackdaw alongside and casting grappling hooks initiates the deck assault. Eliminating the enemy captain, crew targets, or ship scouts triggers the victory state.

Every successful capture gives you three direct resolutions. The choice you make determines your operational tempo on the high seas.

Boarding DecisionTactical RoleTrade-off
Repair the JackdawRestores hull integrity immediately during multi-ship engagementsGrants no progress toward bounty reduction or fleet management
Lower Wanted LevelRemoves hunter aggression from Spanish and British patrolsYields zero hull repair and surrenders the captured ship frame
Send to FleetAdds captured schooners, brigs, frigates, or man-o'-wars to kenway's fleetLeaves the Jackdaw damaged if combat took heavy hull hits

Scrapping lower-tier schooners within your fleet roster frees slots for heavy galleons and man-o'-wars, which can run trade routes in southwest and southeast maritime zones.

How Do You Upgrade Great Inagua and Jackdaw Equipment?

Great Inagua is Edward's personal island haven after capturing the estate from Julien Ducasse. Bernard Edmund Woodhouse serves as the butler of Varano House, offering to buy reclaimed art collections at triple value to honor Lady Catherine Anne Summers's sanctuary. Upgrading the cove requires expanding the tavern, constructing harbor facilities, and recruiting specialized talent through all officers missions:

  1. Recruit Padre Abel Galvao at Punta del Caracol to serve as master-at-arms and enforce crew discipline.
  2. Liberate the expert shipwright Lucy Baldwin from British captivity below deck at Soldier's Key.
  3. Solve island riddles to collect mayan stones from ancient stelae for late-game gear unlocks.

Shipwrights and harbor masters allow you to purchase jackdaw upgrades. Heavy shot, round shot strength ultimate plans costing 5,000 reales, hull armor plates, and reinforced ram spurs are required to challenge southern naval forts and Spanish fleets. Additional gold and resources can be amassed by accepting local assassin contracts found across fishing docks and tavern hubs.

What Steps Unlock the Ancient Observatory?

The Observatory is a precursor installation hidden in Long Bay that uses blood vials to view living targets anywhere in the world. Reaching it requires allying with Bartholomew Roberts, who commands the Royal Fortune.

You must first escort Roberts against Portuguese and Spanish naval squadrons off Cast Newb to secure blood vials taken from governor Laureano de Torres, Woods Rogers, and Benjamin Hornigold. Hornigold breaks from the pirate alliance to hunt Edward, resulting in a naval duel where Edward runs the Benjamin aground at Santanillas and finishes Hornigold atop a Mayan pyramid.

At Long Bay, Roberts requires Kenway to clear indigenous guardians guarding the jungle path. Roberts unlocks the vault door using a drop of his own blood, demonstrating the mechanism with Jack Rackham and Woodes Rogers's vials before turning against Edward. Roberts claims the prize, maroons Kenway, and turns him over to the Jamaican colonial authorities.

Kenway stands trial in Kingston alongside Mary Read and Anne Bonny, who avoid execution by pleading pregnancy before Ah Tabai coordinates an escape through the prison grounds. Edward then sets sail for Africa and Havana to eliminate Roberts and Torres, reclaiming the crystal skull mechanism to seal the installation against Templar control.
