Assassin's Creed Syndicate Guide › Reference and Analysis

Perks

Perks are bonuses added to different general skills, and are achieved by completing a certain number of tasks in a related field. For example, getting 25, two-enemy, multi-finishers results in an increase to the lethality of the player. Perks are accrued cumulatively between Jacob and Evie.

Most of these Perks are completed through normal play, however, it is possible to focus on each perk individually to gain their benefits faster.
