Complete Trust Is Earned in assassins creed iv black flag: sink 5 ships, rescue pirates, and assassinate Templars. Includes optional objectives.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As you approach the target area, you will encounter five enemy ships lying in wait behind rocky landmarks: one brig and four gunships. Sink all five to continue. Use the rocky areas for cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) and to get better angles on the enemy ships.
  2. 2
    After sinking all five ships, a green objective marker will appear in the shallows off the nearby beach. Park your ship here and swim ashore.
  3. 3
    Find the path leading inland from the back left side of the beach. Use the stalking zones to move around the corner.
  4. 4
    Wait for the first group of two guards to move and stop with the second group. When all four guards are together, shoot the powder barrels at their feet to kill them simultaneously.
  5. 5
    Use the bent-over tree to climb over the wooden gate ahead and drop down on the other side.
  6. 6
    You can enter the compound from here. After the cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically), continue up the dirt path and enter the first stalking zone bush.
  7. 7
    Wait for the patrolling Brute to get close, then whistle him over to the bush and assassinate him.
  8. 8
    Move to the bushes on the right, then up to the fence. Sneak over and assassinate the guard at the gate.
  9. 9
    Slip inside and enter the stalking zone bushes along the left wall. Wait for patrols to clear, then run and dive into the haystack.
  10. 10
    Assassinate the guard leaning against the haystack. Wait for the pair of guards patrolling from the north. As they head back north, exit the hay and follow them.
  11. 11
    Perform a double assassination on these two guards, then go through the gate at the top of the hill. Enter the stalking zone bushes to the left inside.
  12. 12
    Kill the guard with his back to you. You will see the first pirate to rescue, guarded by two Gunners and a stationary guard, with a Captain patrolling stairs in the distance. Another Gunner is on the tower.
  13. 13
    Wait for the Captain to climb the stairs. Use a sleep dart on the Gunner on the tower and run to the shrubs behind the guards near the pirate. Assassinate the stationary guard, then double assassinate the two Gunners. Free the pirate and deal with the Captain if he notices you.
  14. 14
    Run up to double-assassinate the two Gunners guarding the second group of prisoners.
  15. 15
    Exit the gate you entered from and follow the path to the left. Stay left along the cliff top to avoid detection. Duck into the shrub just beyond the first mud brick house on the right.
  16. 16
    Assassinate the guard with his back to you when the other guard patrols away. Whistle the patrolling guard over to the bush and assassinate him.
  17. 17
    Sneak over and kill the stationary soldier at the top of the cliff to the left. Climb the small ledge in front of him to enter another bush.
  18. 18
    From this bush, look along the cliff towards a tent. Behind the tent are two Gunners guarding the second group of pirates.
  19. 19
    Wait for the guard patrolling from behind the fence to the campfire ahead and to your right to pass. Either stalk and assassinate him, or put him to sleep and then sneak up and double assassinate the Gunners. Free the prisoners.
  20. 20
    From the second group of pirates, drop down to the lower ledge below. Walk back to the right along the base of the fence, outside of enemy detection.
  21. 21
    Observe the area below and find the haystack at the base of the cliff. Perform a leap of faith into it.
  22. 22
    From the haystack, hop out to the right and enter the stalking zone bushes. Assassinate the guard with his back to you.
  23. 23
    Wait for the large patrol to walk off, then quickly run across the road and hide in the bush to the right of the house at the base of the guard tower.
  24. 24
    Use a sleeping dart on the patrolling guard and sprint straight ahead, keeping the wall of the house to your left. Enter the stalking zone bush at the base of the tree beyond the house.
  25. 25
    From this bush, you will see the two targets. They will walk past and briefly come together near the table in the clearing. Run up behind them and perform a double assassination.
  26. 26
    After the cutscene, walk down to the beach for the mission's conclusion.

Optional Task: How to Assassinate the Two Templars

  • To ensure you can assassinate the two Templars together, be quick after dropping from the ledge and leaping into the haystack. If you are not fast enough, they will split up, preventing you from completing this optional objective.
