1. Infiltration and the carnival

Sub-chapters 1 and 2 · 2 Artefacts · 1 Charm · 1 Blade

  Over the rooftops and into disguise

  Climb the ladder ahead and jump across the rooftops until you meet a group of soldiers. Deal with them, go into the small room and use the device to raise the gate. Go through the door Leni opens, drop down, and interact with the barrel to stow your weapons and put on a mask.

  Follow the cloth to the church

  Guards search you on the way in. Cross the first market square; just before the bridge with two guards, turn right to the docks by the water for the Serenissima Banner. Cross the bridge, go right at the crowd and through the door Leni lockpicks. Climb the wall, pass the backyard with two pigs and squeeze through the gap in the fence: turn left at once for a small box with the first Beads charm. Carry on to the big square with the torch jugglers on stage; the Bombasin Mask is on the floor in its right-hand corner, near a stall.

  The puppet show and the church roof

  Follow the path behind the jugglers' stage to the puppet show and stand in front of it for about a minute, or until it ends, for Theater enthusiast. Go left from the show down the side of the church, squeeze through the fence and meet Leni by the water. Interacting with the barrel by the boat gives your weapons back and the Falchion, the chapter's Blade, along with the Grapnel. Climb the wooden boards with the Grapnel, go right and grapple onto the church roof. Hold the right shoulder button to aim your mirror at the signals: the first is on your right, the second back the way you climbed up.

2. The rooftops and the arsenal

  Leave the carnival

  Get off the church roof the way you came. Guards wait by the next grapple point down to the street, so go right instead: swing over the gap, jump to the next roof and swing over the next gap. Climb the roof ahead, go left and zipline across the square. Pull the archer down with the Grapnel when prompted; this is the tutorial for it.

  The Bracelet charm and the way to the arsenal

  Shimmy across the gap where the archer stood and turn left straight away: a small box holds the first Bracelet charm. Pull the archers off the nearby roof, then keep heading left and right across the roofs as the path allows. Drop into the ruined building on your right, pull the soldier to you and deal with him. Leave by the wooden walkway, enter the building ahead on the left, drop down and open the door.

3. On the run and the Den

Sub-chapters 4 and 5 · 5 Resonance Points (story reward)

• 1

  The fights by the water and your first skill

  Fight off the attackers until a scene plays, then fight more soldiers. Climb the ladder near the water and zipline across, pressing attack as you land. After the next fight, open the large chest: it unlocks your latent abilities, and you spend Resonance Points on a first skill. The chapter's 5 Resonance Points come automatically from a cutscene in this part. Then a large soldier joins the next fight; dodge his red attacks.

  Escape the Den

  Run through the gap he made in the fence, squeeze through the bars and slide under the gaps down the alley, then climb the ladder to Leni. In the Den, climb, drop and jump across as the walkways collapse, grapple up to the next ledge and fight the soldiers there. In the burning building, use an aerial attack on the soldier below, clear the room, climb back up and take the stairs. Face Faro in a boss fight, then cross a gap with the Grapnel and zipline to Leni to end the chapter.
