Assassinating the Harbormaster.

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


After receiving intel, I infiltrated a restricted harbor to assassinate the harbormaster. I cleared a marksman who blocked Enkidu, and navigated through a hole in the wall. After a brief battle with some guards, I used my focus ability to clear the harbormaster's protection and executed him.

From the last camp infiltration, I got intel about a harbormaster controlling the flow of the goods in and out of Baghdad. He seemed to be working under someone's orders, and I had to assassinate him to disrupt their operations.

After getting there, I called Enkidu to check around and mark the enemy positions from above. But there was a marksman on a roof who spooked the eagle with a warning shot and became my next target.

I noticed there were guards at the entrance, so it wouldn't be too easy for me to get into the restricted area.

When I was looking around for an entrance into the area, I noticed there was this man carrying a Dervis artifact. It was quite valuable, so I moved through the crowd and I stole it without him ever noticing my presence.

I continued looking around and I found this guard guarding a hole in the wall, whom I took down after shooting with a sleeping dart from a distance. I moved in quickly and then I threw the dead body in the river to ensure it wouldn't be found by anyone next.

I went inside through that hole and I assassinated a nearby soldier who never even had a chance to draw his sword as I stepped from the shadows behind him.

When I was waiting to check movements of the other soldiers, one of them noticed the body I left behind. All of them started coming towards me, so I ran away and they came outside to search for me.

I got bored hiding from their search parties, so I decided to take the fight to them in the open. I took all of them down with a flurry of strikes that left them breathless.

Then I went inside the perimeter and I climbed up to the roof from where the marksman was messing up with Enkidu earlier. I took him down along with another guard who was stationed nearby.

The sky was finally open for Enkidu again, so I called him back and I marked the harbormaster on a roof overlooking the main pier. He was pacing back and forth, appearing anxious as he looked out over the ships.

When I was getting close to the harbormaster, I noticed there were two soldiers around him acting as personal bodyguards. So I used my focus ability to take the soldiers down in one fluid motion, crossing the distance before they could even react.

The harbormaster didn't have any idea that his soldiers were getting down right behind him as he continued to stare at the water. Before he could know anything or call for help, I assassinated him from the behind.

Until next time, happy gaming.

The sequence where you reclaimed the rooftop from the marksman was satisfying because it felt like payback for disturbing Enkidu earlier. Once the sky was clear again and you used the eagle to locate the harbormaster, it felt like the hunt was finally under your control.

It was cool seeing you focusing on the marksman and then let your bird fly free above. Your melee skill is cool along with your stealth. Focus look like such a cool addition to the AC universe.

It was a smart move to prioritize the marksman early on. Losing Enkidu's eyes in a restricted area like the harbor seemed like a major disadvantage, so clearing the sky first made the rest of the mission much more manageable.
