Conquer the Whitechapel Gang War in Assassin's Creed Syndicate! Defeat Rexford Kaylock, liberate the borough, and claim your mobile train base.

Alright, so you've wrapped up all those associate activities, and now it's time for the big one: the Gang War 'boss' fight to take over Whitechapel. Your target is Rexford Kaylock, the head honcho of the Blighters in this area.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The fight kicks off with a big brawl. You'll have 10 of your Rooks going up against 10 of Kaylock's Blighters. Jump into the fray and help your Rooks out, taking down as many enemies as you can.
  2. 2
    Once the initial group is cleared, the main man himself, Rexford Kaylock, will make his entrance. He'll hop onto a nearby train, so you'll need to follow him.
  3. 3
    Get on board the train and prepare for a one-on-one showdown. Kaylock hits harder than your average thug and has a bit more health. Make sure you're using guard breaks frequently to keep the pressure on and deal consistent damage. Watch for his health bar to flash yellow – that's your cue to counter his attacks. He's not overly difficult, but don't get careless with your counters, or he'll definitely put a dent in you.
  • Money: 264 £ (Bonus: 75 £)
  • XP: 250 XP (Bonus: 100 XP)
  • Gear: Adept Cane-Sword

Aftermath:

Once Kaylock is dealt with, Whitechapel will officially be liberated! As a sweet bonus, you'll also snag yourself a mobile base of operations: a seriously cool, upgraded train. This train isn't just for show; it has a safe that will generate currency over time, unlocks the Gang Upgrade menu, and you'll meet Agnes, the driver. She'll give you a few optional memories to tackle, so keep an eye out for those.

Tips
  • Don't forget to assist your Rooks in the initial brawl; having them weakened will make the train fight harder.
  • Prioritize countering Kaylock when his health bar flashes yellow. It's your best opening for damage.
  • Use guard breaks liberally to interrupt his attacks and keep him vulnerable.
