02 - The Estates General | Sequence 1 of AC Unity AC Unity Guide

Difficulty: 1/5

You have to deliver an important letter to Mr. de la Serre. Follow the carriage. Don't go on the ground because a closed gate will stop you. Instead, climb the roof on the right. Keep following the carriage. You don't have to hurry, just don't stay in one place. The carriage will stop after a while. Walk up to it.

You have to look around.

De la Serre isn't there. Arno decides to move to a better place. The game will show you a church tower. Your task is to climb it and perform a synchronization. The tower has a lot of spots to hold on to, so getting up should not be a problem. After you do it, a short cut scene will start.

Lots of guards, but the crowd is quite big.

Perform a leap of faith into a haystack, climb down the church and walk up to the building. There are two ways to do it. The first one is blending into the crowd. You have to move from one group to another and use the guards' lack of attention to your advantage. Just stick to the left side and watch out for guards, you should reach your destination fairly quickly. You can run in the last fragment. Just reach the door without being seen and open it. If you don't know which door to open, go left from the entrance, climb up the stairs and use the Eagle Vision.

The second way to complete the mission is to climb up the wall, then the building. If you can, do it from the right side, because you'll encounter less guards. Just avoid single guards and jump down in front of the door.

Don't be afraid of getting caught. The guards will not attack you, they'll just throw you out and you'll have to start again.

The meeting of Estates.

Keep going ahead, first over the stairs and then, over the galllery. You will note a crowd in the hall below. Reach the green zone and use the Eagle Vision. If you have not found de la Serre, this means that you are too far away from the speaker. Reach the very edge of the restricted area and use the Sight again. After the cutscene, walk over to the galllery on the right side of the hall and proceed to the door.

Future Assassin versus the blacksmith brothers.

You'll have to fight two brothers. The encounter is rather easy, because the enemies have low health and slow attacks. After you defeat the first one, the second one will enter the fight. His attacks are stronger, but even slower. Defeat him as well.

For a full synchronization, you'll have to perform two parries and two dodges. You can use parry only against the first brother, so try to complete both parts of the task during the first duel.

After the fight, escape the area and become anonymous.
