Boston Brawlers in Assassin's Creed III Remastered Assassin's Creed III Guide
Last update: 27 March 2019
Boston Brawler
Location: Boston
Start off by talking with the organizer in Boston to unlock the first challenge.
Peter Bunyon
Location: The Frontier
Your first enemy awaits you at the Frontier. As the fight begins, quickly eliminate his companions and afterwards focus your attacks on Bunyon himself.
To defeat him, you should press the jump button after each successful block. The assailant will be knocked out of balance and you will be able to land a couple hits on him. Keep repeating this until the fight ends.
The Sailor
Location: New York
Defeat the sailor in the same way as the previous enemy. Start off with eliminating his comrades and afterwards keep knocking him out of balance to attack.
The Smuggler
Location: Boston
Fighting the Smuggler differs from the previous ones as you will have to fight not one, but two powerful enemies. However the tactic still stays the same.
The Stinger
Location: The Frontier
The fight is identical to the first two.
The Ropebeater
Location: Boston
Fighting The Ropebeater will require a different tactic. In order to counter his attack, you will have to keep the interaction button pressed all the time. You will have to aim at a quick dodge without slowing down time. However if time does slow down, don't do anything and wait for Connor to push away the enemy himself.
That way you will avoid getting hit by the enemy, but you will have to attack him himself. For that, make Ropebeater stand with his back to the wooden elements. When you hold down the interaction button and dodge the enemy's attack, quickly hold down the attack button. Your character will perform a quick punch. If the enemy will be close enough to the environment, he should hit the wooden element and get damaged. You won't always succeed, but after a couple attempts it should bring the desired effects. If you lose too much health, stop attacking and focus on blocking. That way you will be able to recover a part of your health.
The Merchant
Location: New York
To defeat the Merchant, slow time by blocking. When the enemy gets pushed away, you need to punch him twice and he will fall down to the ground. Keep repeating this until the fight ends.
The Tournament
The brewery |
Location: Boston
To begin the last mission, head to the brewery in Boston, where you met with the organizer. Unfortunately because of a game bug the location might not be marked on your map, so you can find it on the above screenshot.
You will have to fight with the best brawlers in town. You can defeat each enemy in the same way as Peter Bunyon and the Sailor: block their attack and knock the enemy out of balance with the jump button to make the enemy vulnerable for some time. There are however some differences between the fights:
1. The Redcoat - defeat his companions with normal attacks and keep attacking him just like before as he draws his sword.
2. The Docker - beat up the weaker enemies just like the Docker, i.e. by using the jump button.
3. The Surgeon - during the fight the Surgeon, Connor will be poisoned. It will cause the screen to blur and will gradually eat your life. To win, you have to defeat all the enemies as fast as possible.
4. The Huntress - you last enemy will recover all of her health a few times and will keep using smoke bombs to stop attacks. Don't worry about it and keep attacking the Huntress until the fight ends. That way you will also end the whole tournament.
