Follow our step-by-step guide for Assassin's Creed Rogue's first memory, 'The Way The Wind Blows,' covering assassination, combat, infiltration, and naval combat.
Walkthrough
- 1Part 1: Assassinate
Gain control of Shay and chase down the objective marker. Freerun through the trees to reach a log overlooking the assassin. Perform an air assassination using the on-screen prompt. Follow your companion through freerunning sequences until a scene plays with more NPCs. - 2Part 2: Fight
Engage in a fist fight that serves as a tutorial for the hand-to-hand combat system. Follow on-screen prompts to practice attacking, stringing attacks into combos, and countering. Continue fighting until another cut-scene occurs. - 3Part 3: Infiltrate
This part focuses on completing optional objectives: clearing an on-shore camp and a boat of British soldiers without detection.- Climb the tree with your friend and perform an air assassination on the enemy to your right.
- 4Quickly enter the bushes behind the enemy below the tree and take him down from cover.
- 5Return to the first guard's location, hide in bushes, and assassinate the patrolling guard when he investigates the body.
- 6Free the prisoner near where the second guard was killed.
- 7Climb the tree and follow the branches to position yourself over the camp. Perform a double assassination on the two enemies below and to the right.
- 8Free the smugglers by the tent.
- 9Proceed to the nearby boat. Hang from the back to scope out the deck. Wait for the patrolling guard to turn his back, then hop onto the deck. Assassinate the guards one by one, starting with those whose backs are turned, and finish with the patroller.
- 10Free the prisoners on the deck. Both optional objectives should now be completed.
- 11Part 4: Naval Combat
After a scene, take control of your ship, the Morrigan. Familiarize yourself with the boat controls, noting speed affects maneuverability. Make your way to the objective marker in open sea. Enemy ships will appear.- A tutorial will explain how to use the broadside cannons. Aim the side of your ship and use the left trigger for an aiming indicator.
- 12Four gunships, a frigate, and a brig are attacking an allied ship. Defend it by using broadside cannons and explosive shot (fired from the front of the ship).
- 13Use your ship's speed to your advantage for positioning and to execute broadside attacks or explosive shot.
- 14Destroy all enemy ships to end the mission.
