Legendary ships. Legendary ships Assassin 4 how to get a new ship

The legendary ships in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag are level 75 floating fortresses that are the pride of the Spanish and British navies. They are superbly armored and armed. Their places of deployment are marked on the global map with huge red markers that appear after the capture of four forts (Dry Tortugas, Eleuthera, Serranilla, Navassa) or independent exploration of the Caribbean. There are five legendary ships to be found and defeated in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag. For a victory over each of them, a solid reward is awarded from 10,000 to 20,000 reais (and they cannot be sent to the country, they immediately go to the bottom after the victorious shot). You should not rely on chance and a lucky coincidence during naval battles, you cannot defeat elite opponents with a swoop. Jackdaw is a military brig that loses to opponents not only in class, but also in many other parameters, therefore, before attacking legendary ships, you need to maximize your weapons and strengthen the hull, which will allow you to effectively attack and defend. The more improvements are made before the fight, the higher the chances of winning will be. Weapon ammunition is sold from any harbor master or purchased through the captain's cabin. Also associated with Legendary Ships are STEAM Achievements and Abstergo Challenges, which affect full walkthrough games.

Legendary ships in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag:

  • El Impoluto/ El Impoluto (199.894): the legendary ship is hiding in the northwestern part of the map, in the sector of Fort Dry Tortugas. The main danger is a ram, hardened cannonballs, speed and high maneuverability of the enemy. During the battle, we keep at a medium distance, attack with ordinary cannonballs, cover the rear with barrels with incendiary shells to avoid pursuit. On the vulnerable spots that appear after a successful volley from the cannons,. At a distance, we aim at sighting from mortars, calculating the shot so that the cannonballs cover the enemy. We avoid close contact by any means.

  • La Dama Negra/ La Dama Negra (289.67): The legendary ship is hiding in the southwestern part of the map, in the sector of Fort Serranilla. Thick armor makes the enemy clumsy and completely protects against cannonballs and incendiary shells, and mortars cause a lot of trouble: the firing zone is not marked with yellow circles on the water, therefore, at the time of shots, it is imperative to slow down the ship and take it aside, you cannot stay in one place, otherwise three volleys Jackdaw will be destroyed. The stern and deck are the vulnerable spots of the legendary ship. Attacks from behind will force the whopper to budge and open fire with hot cannonballs. We move away from the sides. After a successful return shot at the stern, many vulnerable spots appear, at which you need to have time to shoot from the falconets. At a great distance, mortars will provide invaluable assistance, despite the low damage.

  • HMS "Prince"/ HMS Prince (895.64): the legendary ship is hiding in the southeastern part of the map, in the sector of Fort Navassa. The hardened cannonballs will make you stay at a medium distance from the enemy, away from the sides, and the mortars will constantly move, avoiding the yellow circles on the water. For a retaliatory attack, ordinary cannonballs are well suited, which do not only damage, but also allow you to reach vulnerable spots along the hull, and mortars help to act from a distance when the enemy leaves for a turn or makes a maneuver. The main thing is not to exchange shots at a short distance in any case, since the legendary ship uses hardened cannonballs, which inflict tremendous damage and are capable of breaking Jackdaw with several successful volleys. If he nevertheless gets close, he can be driven away with heavy cannonballs.

  • Brothers in Arms/ The Brothers-In-Arms (871.808): legendary ships are hiding in the northeastern part of the map, in the sector of Fort Eleuthera. Distinctive features twin brothers are speed and high maneuverability. You cannot linger for a long time at the sides of the ships and fall into the box between them, otherwise they will smash Jackdaw to smithereens. Mortars work great against them, especially in those moments when the battleships begin to turn around and intersect with each other. At medium range, ordinary nuclei are effective, at close range - heavy nuclei. After several successful volleys from cannons, vulnerable spots begin to appear on the hull of enemy ships, which need to be hit with falconets. The rear should be covered with barrels with incendiary shells in order to get rid of pursuers in the event of a chase.

Battles with legendary ships are always challenging, as more dangerous than opponents at sea in Assassins creed 4 simply no. And even if these ships are thoroughly armed and protected from damage, they can still be destroyed, and they will not rust with motivation, because they are packed to capacity with all kinds of prey.

But motivation alone is not enough, as you understand - the opponents are all strong on selection, therefore, you must first thoroughly prepare for a meeting with them. If your ship is poorly pumped, then it is better to avoid encounters with legendary ships, and if this is already impossible, then just try to hide.

So what do we have there with the legendary ships, how to defeat them in Assassins Creed 4? Let's figure it out in order.

Legendary ship HMS Prince - you will find it at coordinates 895.64.

Perhaps the easiest loot of all the legendary ships. But even for him it is better to pump "Jackdaw" to at least 75%, and better - to all 100%. In addition, there is even nothing to go into battle without mortars, conventional cannonballs and falconets.

The specified coordinates will lead you to the southeastern part of the map - if you see a ship that is always shrouded in fog with black sails - this is HMS Prince. Its strong point is firing with hot cannonballs and high maneuverability, due to which it is sometimes difficult to get into it.

So the optimal solution is to water the enemy ship at a distance with fire from mortars, and then finish off with cannonballs and a falconet. If there is a good chance to ram the enemy - do not miss it. As a reward for the sunken HMS Prince, you will earn R $ 20,000.

Legendary ship El Impoluto - find it at coordinates 199.894.

This is already a more serious opponent, for which preparation should be more serious, if you expect to win, and not at best an escape, or at worst - an exciting excursion to the seabed.

It is best to pump "Jackdaw" by at least 85%, but this is the minimum. The desired level of your ship to fight legendary ships is 100%. In addition, special falconets and special incendiary projectiles come in handy.

The coordinates above will take you to the northwest part of the West Indies. In battle, it is recommended to keep as great a distance as possible and avoid side salvos with hot cannonballs.

Do not be confused by the size of the enemy ship and the fact that it is linear - it is extremely fast, maneuverable and at the same time powerful, if you get hit by a ram - you will be convinced of this very soon. But you better take our word for it.

What to do - shoot at a distance from cannons, as well as from falconets. When the enemy goes to ram, immediately turn the ship stern to him and throw incendiary shells, he will very soon regret his intentions. Sinking El Impoluto will earn you R $ 20,000.

Legendary ships - brothers in arms: Royal Sovereign and Fearless, coordinates - 871.808

This time, you will be confronted with two legendary ships at the same time, therefore the requirements for your ship before entering the battle are even more stringent than before - you need pumping from 90% to 100%. It is also necessary to have on board special mortars, a special ram and hardened cannonballs.

The indicated coordinates will lead you to the northeastern part of the map, where you will meet the pride of the British Royal Navy - Brothers in Arms, very nimble and fast ships.

Considering that there are two enemies at once and both are extremely maneuverable, it is worth being on the move all the time and not getting trapped by them when they are on both sides, and you are in the center between them. So you will very soon lose the battle and naturally go to the bottom to feed the fish.

It is advisable to knock down the mobility of enemies with buckshot, and then use their reduced maneuverability, taking on a ram. Another tactically advantageous situation for you is when you are at a decent distance from them, and both enemy ships are located next to each other. With the help of mortars, you can inflict tremendous damage on them. The total reward will be waiting for you the same - 20,000 reais, 10,000 for each of the two sunk ships.

Legendary ship La Dama Negra, coordinates - 289.67.

Perhaps the hardest enemy at sea in the game Assassins Creed 4. Therefore, there is nothing to meddle with with pumping the Jackdaw by less than 100%. It is imperative to have in stock special mortars, the power of conventional cores and special falconets.

The specified coordinates will take you to the southwestern West Indies. There you will be greeted by the most severe legendary ship of all, with long-range powerful mortars and extremely effective armor.

But, as you can imagine, an iron-protected hull means more weight, and this greatly reduces mobility and maneuverability. Therefore, it is worth imposing on him a game according to your rules - use your superiority in speed and maneuverability, do not stop for a minute, trying to go to him from the stern.

This is his weakest point, which can be effectively attacked with cannonballs and falconets, than inflicting the maximum possible damage in this battle. True, it will not be enough, you will have to tinker.

After sinking the ship La Dama Negra, you will receive the same R $ 20,000 as a reward.

In Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, Evard Kenway's ship, the Jackdaw, can eventually turn into the captain's pride, if, of course, the captain will improve his wet nurse in a timely manner.

You can improve all parts of the ship, using what was obtained in battles or stolen by the pirate's honest labor: money, metals, wood, fabrics, hemp, and so on.

All upgrades must be installed either from the captain's cabin (go to the ship and press the [E] hotkey), or when buying from the captains in the ports.
But besides the obvious improvements, there are also special improvements that you can't buy anywhere. These are blueprints for equipping a ship with the latest technology from the Golden Age of Piracy.

Assassins Creed 4 Black Flag is the sixth part of a series of multi-platform projects dedicated to the hidden war between the Assassin brotherhood and the Knights Templar. In the review presented to your attention, you can find all the information regarding the plot component, gameplay features and tips that will facilitate the difficult life of the corsair.

To the Caribbean!

The passage of the game Assassin Creed 4 Black Flag will begin with a short cut-scene where the user will be shown a brief background story of Edward Kenway, who went to the New World in search of wealth and glory. In 1715, a privateer in the service of the English crown ( the main character) comes across a heavily armed ship that opened fire without warning, and after a short battle, both ships sink.

Only two people manage to survive the shipwreck, namely our protagonist and Duncan Walpole, a renegade assassin who is carrying some mysterious Forerunner artifact straight into the hands of the chief master of the Templars. After a short chase, Duncan is killed by Edward's saber, who later takes his place in the hope of gaining unprecedented riches that a deal with the Templars promises.

Canway's wishes for easy money are not destined to come true, since after a short stay in Havana his real identity is revealed, and he himself is captured and thrown into the hold of one of the ships along with the slaves. This is followed by the escape and seizure of the brig "Galka" which will later become the main means of transportation across the expanses of the Caribbean, as well as a tool for making money.

Passage Assassin Creed 4 Black Flag has a deep emphasis on sea battles and the plunder of careless merchants. Most of the game time, the gamer will spend at the helm of his ship or looking at the water surface in search of a new victim. The plot itself has two interconnected branches:

The first was the creation of a free pirate republic centered on the island of Nassau. This idea belongs not to GG, but to the legendary Edward Thatch, but our hero likes it. Throughout history, you will perform dozens of tasks aimed specifically at liberating the New World from the oppression of the tyranny of the English and Spanish empires. For some unknown reason, the developers completely forgot about the French, the Dutch who also had interests on the islands (apparently to simplify the presentation of the plot).

The second is the search for the mythical Forerunner Observatory, with the help of which you can track any living creature on the planet. The matter will not be limited to one search, since the Templar Order, greedy for power in Assassin Creed 4, the black flag also has plans for a device, only for more vile and power-hungry purposes.


Personalities of the Golden Age

In the course of wandering through the expanses of the water surface in Assassin's Creed iv Black Flag, as in the previous parts (which in its own way is the hallmark of the series), you will encounter dozens of historical characters slightly reworked for the sake of narrating the plot element and laconic implementation into the game. We will not list all the people who will somehow affect the life of the GG, but we will tell you about the most significant and memorable from the first meeting:

Edward Thatch is also known by the nickname Blackbeard. Each meeting or conversation with him will be filled with the spirit of filibuster, and the goals of the legendary storm of the seas after a more detailed analysis will turn out to be more altruistic, which is generally unexpected due to his kind of activity. The permanent captain of the frigate Queen Anne's Revenge, died in the assault on the Spanish galleon almost at the very end of Assassin's Creed iv Black Flag.

Jack Rackham - one of the friends and supporters of Blackbeard's ideas, will meet for the first time during an attempt to attack the Golden Fleet, which has suffered a complete fiasco. Throughout the game, he will provide assistance to Canway, although he himself will repeatedly ask for a reciprocal favor. Death will meet him on the gallows, which the gamer cannot prevent.

Benjamin Hornigold is a very mysterious person, at first often found in Nassau and Thatch's company. Approximately in the middle of the plot, he begins a hunt for comrades and arranges reprisals against them. Later it turns out that he is an agent of the Templars, and for betrayal he takes death at the hands of the GG.

Woods Rogers - the newly-minted head of the British Colony - Jamaica, one of the main antagonists. In the final video, it becomes known that he miraculously survived a collision with the protagonist and returned to his native England. As a result, he was killed in the DLC - Cry of Freedom.

Laureano Torres y Ayala is the ruler of Spanish Cuba, whose residence is in Havana. The main villain, the Grand Master of the Templars. Met my end at Forerunner Observatory.

Mary Reed is a pirate assassin posing as James Kidd. Later he reveals his feminine nature and goals to our character. Dies tragically while trying to escape from a British prison.

Anne Bonnie is at first a more or less ordinary girl (for those times), but after completing the mission with a prison break, she becomes the Quartermaster of the Jackdaw and the right hand of her captain. Has a huge impact in the later stages of Assassin Creed 4.
