Icon	Name		Trophy	Unlock Condition
	House Party	10	Bronze	Recruit your first artisan on the Homestead.

	An Extraordinary Man	10	Bronze	Complete the Encyclopedia of the Common Man.
	Coureur des Bois	10	Bronze	Sell an undamaged animal pelt at every General Store in the game. This can be achieved in Sequence 09 at the very earliest.
	Magna cum Laude	20	Bronze	Train a single recruit to the maximum rank.
	By Invitation Only	20	Bronze	Be invited to join a club. For most players, this will unlock in Sequence 04 or 05.
	In Good Standing	30	Silver	Complete all challenges for a single club. This can be a quite lengthy and demanding task, so it’s wise to start working towards the many requirements at an early stage.
	Man of the People	20	Silver	Liberate all districts in Boston or New York. This is rather easier to accomplish in the former city, as one of its three districts is freed of Templar influence automatically during a main story Memory.
	Tumblehome	10	Bronze	Obtained once you purchase a first upgrade for the Aquila via the ledger found next to each Harbormaster. The Extra Cannon enhancement costs a mere £2,500, and will satisfy this requirement.
	Entrepreneur, not Pirate!	20	Bronze	Complete all Privateer Contracts.
	All Washed Up	40	Silver	Complete all Naval Missions.
	Bring Down the House	20	Bronze	Obtain a trinket for Peg Leg, then complete the Fort Wolcott Memory.
	Kidd Gloves	30	Bronze	After collecting all 24 trinkets and finishing all other Peg Leg Missions, complete the Oak Island Memory.
	Perfectionist	50	Silver	Complete all main story Memories with a 100% Synchronization rating.
	Multitasking	20	Bronze	Complete 50% of all DNA Tracker grid entries.
	Completionist	50	Silver	Complete all DNA Tracker grid entries. This requires 100% Synchronization in every Memory, including Optional Objectives.
	Head in the Cloud	20	Silver	Find all pivots and synch the Animus to the Cloud in the post-story online side quest.

Multiplayer

Icon	Name		Trophy	Unlock Condition
	Personalized	10	Bronze	Customize your Multiplayer profile and avatar.
	Winning Team	20	Bronze	Be on the winning team at the end of a Multiplayer game session.
	Hunter/Killer	20	Bronze	Reach Sequence 10 on a map in Wolfpack mode.
	Abstergo Entertainment	10	Silver	Reach Level 20.
	The Truth Will Out	20	Silver	Unlock a hacked version of an Abstergo video.

Unique Feats

Icon	Name		Trophy	Unlock Condition
	Spit Roast	20	Bronze	To achieve this feat, simply assassinate an opponent with a loaded musket, then immediately press / to shoot through the body to kill a second enemy.
	Circus Act	10	Bronze	Kill 15 guards with a single cannon shot. This can be achieved during the Battle of Monmouth mission.
	Prince of Thieves	10	Bronze	Loot a convoy without killing any of its guards. This is just a simple matter of using unarmed combat throughout the fight.
	Predator	10	Bronze	Hang five enemies by using Rope Darts. It’s much easier to accomplish in the Frontier, especially when there are branches that overlook an enemy patrol route.
	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.
	Master Assassin	-	Platinum	Get every trophy (PS3 only).
