Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced: Unmanned Mission Walkthrough Guide

In this mission walkthrough, we break down Unmanned, the twenty-first assignment in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and the last step of Sequence Five. It’s a longer job that asks you to eliminate a key target and then thoroughly explore a manor that’s crawling with guards. Below, you’ll find a step-by-step route, suggested takedown approaches, and notes on collectibles you can grab during the infiltration.

Release & mission placement details

Unmanned is the twenty-first mission in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, and it’s also the third and final mission in Sequence Five. The guide below assumes you’re progressing through the sequence in order, starting right after finishing Traveling Salesman, and then following the objectives through the manor grounds and into the escape phase.

How to Start Unmanned

You can begin Unmanned immediately after completing Traveling Salesman. Head to the western side of Kingston, then use the map coordinates 605, 169. From there, climb up to the top of the Windmill.

At the Windmill you’ll find Kidd. There’s also a Viewpoint located here, and it’s recommended to clear that before you speak to Kidd. When you’re ready to start the quest, interact with Kidd.

Kidd will share guidance for getting into the manor, but the key directive is to sabotage the three bells.

Sabotage the Three Bells

Here’s a suggested route for completing the bell objectives:

  • Use your vision tools and Observe as many guards as possible while you’re on top of the Windmill.
  • Leap off toward the northwest and land in the haystack.
  • Move in with Kidd into the shrubs near the first bell.
  • Kidd draws the attention of two guards; assassinate both as they approach the bushes.
  • Eliminate the remaining two guards near this bell by using the bushes and the haystack nearby.
  • Climb up the tower, remove the gunner, then attempt the bell sabotage.
  • Sabotage the first bell.
  • For the second bell, travel west.
  • Circle around the southern side so you can climb the tower and take out the gunner first.
  • Drop down and perform a double assassination on the guards below.
  • Use a whistle to pull in nearby patrols if needed.
  • Double assassinate the two guards on the east side.
  • Sabotage the second bell.
  • Head north to reach the third bell.
  • Again, prioritize the watchtower first so you can remove the gunner.
  • Sneak around the northern area, taking out soldiers along the path.
  • Clear the nearest soldier by the watchtower.
  • Climb to the top of the tower and deal with the soldier up there.
  • Jump down into the haystack; there’s a collectible chest inside the hut just to the east.
  • Start working south.
  • Wait until the lone patrolling officer is positioned in front of the two guards.
  • Double assassinate the front pair, then quickly assassinate the single guard.
  • Jump into the haystack again to take down the brute near the bell.
  • Sabotage the third bell.

After that, go west to catch up with Kidd. From there, you’ll pass through the gate into the manor—and it’s immediately clear that the interior is heavily guarded too.

Assassinate Prins

You can either separate from Kidd following his suggestion, or simply stick with him. The safest overall approach here is to use Eagle vision and tag every guard you can spot.

  • Head around to the northwest and assassinate the two guards patrolling.
  • Climb the ladder on the side of the building.
  • Remove the two gunners at the top.
  • Move to the south end of the roof and assassinate the guard there.
  • Then go north and assassinate the brute.
  • Jump through a window.
  • Take the Lauren Prins Portrait.
  • Read the Task List located in the west.
  • Go to the shelf on the west side and pick up the trinket and other loot.
  • Hop back out, then climb up the front of the building.
  • Assassinate the guard in the window, then eliminate the second guard inside the room.
  • Read the letter on the table and loot the chest.
  • Exit the room through the corridor in the northwest.
  • Kill the guard in the northeast.
  • Drop down to another floor, but on the southwest side.
  • Kill the guard and loot the chest.
  • Drop down again and head northwest toward the guards by the bell.
  • Jump into the haystack on the left, then whistle to get the guard.
  • Assassinate him and move toward the leaves on the opposite side.
  • Assassinate and cut the bell.
  • Sneak up to Prins and assassinate him.

After the cutscene, your job isn’t over—you must escape the plantation. Expect plenty of men to chase you, so run toward the southeast and loop back to the Windmill to reunite with Kidd.
