Bronze |
Kill 15 guards with a single cannon shot. This can be achieved during the Battle of Monmouth mission. |

Bronze |
Loot a convoy without killing any of its guards. This is just a simple matter of using unarmed combat throughout the fight. |
|

Predator |

|
|
Whit’s fur ye’ll no go by ye! |
10 |
Bronze |
Block a firing line five times by using a human shield. This should be a milestone that you complete very early in the story. If for some reason you do not, create chaos in Boston or New York and accumulate a small army of angry patrols and guards. You should then play the fight purely to complete the requisite human shield moves when firing lines assemble. |
|
|
Jager Bomb |
20 |
Bronze |
After reaching maximum Notoriety, hunt and kill ten Jägers. This can only be accomplished in Boston or New York. |
|
|
Eye Witness |
10 |
Bronze |
Witness a predator (a bear, wolf, bobcat or cougar) killing an enemy. While this may occur automatically during many varied travels through the Frontier, especially if you enjoy hunting, it is something that you can engineer by luring aggressive animals into the path of a patrol. |
