Kill enemies in spectacular fashion to score the following. Be sure to take down the captains aboard the vessels found in the various waterways.

Name Description PS4 Trophy Xbox One Points

Slasher

Kill three enemies with one hit.

A long weapon, such as a heavy blade, works well for the Slasher achievement. The simplest method may be to return to Siwa at a much higher level, and head to an enemy base, such as the Temple of Amun. Run through the stronghold, getting the attention of as many guards as possible. Once surrounded, hit them with a heavy attack. This swings the axe in a circle, hitting all who stands too close.

Bronze

10

You must acquire the Enhanced Predator Bow ability in order to control the arrow. Aim for a stationary, unaware soldier at a distance and go for the head. If you go for an enemy far enough below your level, you could get a kill with an easier body shot.

Silver

20

Overdesign

Kill a poisoned Level 35+ enemy with the torch in less than 30 seconds.

Hit a Level 40 enemy with a poison dart, toss a torch on him, and quickly go in for the kill by pummeling him with another torch. Attempting at Level 40 and upgrading the bracer makes this a tad easier.

Bronze

30

Archer of the Month

Headshot kill an enemy with the bow while in the air.

The Elite Ranger ability allows the player to enter slow motion when aiming the bow in the air. Dropping from a high point gives you plenty of time to acquire a headshot on an unsuspecting foe.

Silver

20

Where’s My Black Flag?

Defeat eight ship captains.

Look for vessels in the northern seas, Lake Mareotis, and the Nile marked as points of interest or small military. Each one has a captain aboard. Board a ship and cautiously wipe out the crew, including the captain.

Name Description PS4 Trophy Xbox One Points

Circle of Life

Feed a predator with a corpse.

Kill a soldier and carry his body to any predator. It will devour the body, making for a nice distraction. Predators include hyenas, leopard, lion, or lioness.

Bronze

Set-up Date

Bring a tamed lion to a crocodile.

Find a lion, preferably a sleeping one, and hit it with a dart. With the animal taming ability, make it your companion. Now simply find a crocodile and let them do their thing.

Bronze

10

Run for Your Life!

Run away from three fights with a hippo.

Hippos are fairly slow animals, but beware of their charge attack, which allows them to close in on their target surprisingly quickly. They are unable to climb, so this is often the best route when fleeing from the beast.

Bronze

10

RRoooaaarrrrr!

Tame a lion.

Try to sneak up on an unsuspecting lion and hit it with a sleep dart. If alerted to your presence, it gets more difficult to get the dart into the predator.
