Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Locate the contact on the plantation. This is a restricted area with guards who will punish slaves if you are spotted. Use hiding places to pick off overseers one by one. You must kill 20 overseers to liberate the plantation.
  2. 2
    Run to the hiding spot near the wall on the right. Tag guards with Eagle Vision and wait for the patrolling guard to move right.
  3. 3
    Run down the slope and hide in the bushes. A green circle showing the contact’s general location should appear.
  4. 4
    Head towards the contact’s location, avoiding the patrolling guard.
  5. 5
    Creep into a bush near the guard, whistle to draw him over, and take him out.
  6. 6
    Move to the next bush past the alarm bell on the left.
  7. 7
    Use Eagle Vision to spot a guard down the hill and the contact.
  8. 8
    Dispatch the nearby overseer before approaching the contact.
  9. 9
    Interact with the contact for directions to the Maroon hideout. The contact is on the edge of the sugar canes.
  10. 10
    Move through the bushes to the left of the house and run to the sugar canes in the next section.
  11. 11
    Whistle the nearby guard over and take him out.
  12. 12
    Kill the guard standing in front of a well. Run up behind him, jump inside the wall, move around to come up behind him, and perform a ledge assassination.
  13. 13
    Jump out of the well and run into the bushes to the left, towards the green marker.
  14. 14
    Move around the large trees’ left side and follow the cliff towards the green marker.
  15. 15
    Duck into the shrubs near the green marker (startling a flock of birds) and run towards the hideout. There are no guards close enough to notice you.
  16. 16
    Run into the green light to access the hideout.
  17. 17
    Eliminate all overseers in the hideout. From your starting position, go right to a tall ledge with a guard below. Perform an air assassination on him.
  18. 18
    Quickly move through the water and around the back of the docks to the next guards.
  19. 19
    Hide behind stacked wood and call a guard over for a corner takedown. It does not matter if you are spotted by guards as it has no effect on the mission.
  20. 20
    Creep up behind the next set of guards and dispatch them. One guard patrols between crates; walk up behind him. Another guard is near a box.
  21. 21
    If guards above see you, duck behind a box.
  22. 22
    You can lure guards down the stairs by whistling. Some will jump down, allowing you to stab them.

  26. 26
    Move to the two guards off to the left and double assassinate them.
  27. 27
    Turn your attention to the guards near the cliff edge. You can push them both over the edge or start a fight, counter-attack, and then push them over.
  28. 28
    Follow them down and kill them if they are not dead after being pushed.
  29. 29
    Head over to Augustin and free him.
  30. 30
    Stop the overseers before they escape. Run up to the lift and slash it to get above the overseers.
  31. 31
    Follow the cliff path by jumping over obstacles until you find a rope to swing to the other side.
  32. 32
    Jump across wood and stumps to reach the island.
  33. 33
    Run up the hill; Adé will dive off the edge into the boat and kill them to complete the mission.
Tips
  • You must kill 20 overseers to empty the plantation and save the slaves.
  • Slaves can be liberated on plantations to boost the number of slaves you have rescued.
  • You can just run past the guards near the sugar canes, but killing them helps liberate the plantation.
  • It doesn’t matter if you are spotted by guards during the overseer elimination phase in the hideout.
  • The two guards near the cliff edge can be pushed over the side into the water.
  • Use the lift to get above the overseers; do not try to run straight to them.
