Conquer the Southwark Gang War in Assassin's Creed Syndicate! Learn strategies to defeat Blighters and the formidable Gang Leader, Octavia Plumb, to liberate the borough.

Alright, ready to take on the Southwark Gang War in Assassin's Creed Syndicate? This is your final push to liberate the borough, and it’s a pretty straightforward fight. Once you've wrapped up all nine previous associate activities, a marker will pop up in the northeastern part of Southwark. This mission has two main parts: first, you'll deal with a bunch of Blighters, and then you'll face off against the leader herself, Octavia Plumb.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First up, you need to take down 10 Blighters. These guys are mostly melee fighters, but they'll pull out their pistols now and then, so keep your wits about you.
  2. 2
    Once you've cleared out those 10 Blighters, Octavia Plumb herself will show up to fight. She's not alone, though – she's got a crew of melee enemies backing her up.
  3. 3
    Octavia is basically a tougher version of a regular melee enemy. To beat her, make sure you're using guard breaks frequently to keep the pressure on. Dodge out of the way when you see bullets coming your way, and try to counter when you see her health bar, or those of her support units, flash yellow.
  4. 4
    Honestly, Octavia isn't the hardest part. It's the extra enemies she brings along that really make this fight a challenge. Focus on managing the adds while keeping an eye on Octavia's attacks.
Tips
  • If you've already defeated Octavia Plumb during your borough conquest, you'll skip the boss fight and just need to defeat the initial group of Blighters to complete the activity.
  • Keep an eye on your surroundings and try to use the environment to your advantage if possible, especially when dealing with the supporting enemies.
