Completion route
Clear by type, but sail by region
The fastest completion route is usually one region sweep that combines several collectible types.
| Type | Best timing | Route note |
|---|---|---|
| Viewpoints | Before detailed cleanup | Reveal nearby icons and reduce backtracking |
| Animus Fragments | During city or ruin sweeps | Group with rooftops, caves, and shipwreck paths |
| Sea Shanties | When already on rooftops | Plan the chase direction before the sheet moves |
| Templar Keys | When following mission or hunt chains | Check unlock progress before leaving the region |
| Mayan Stelae | When solving outfit routes | Pair with map and location checks |
Sweep checklist
What to check before closing a region
Use a closing checklist when a city, island, or shipwreck looks complete.
- Sync viewpoints and scan the local map.
- Search the region name in the database.
- Check fragments, shanties, chests, keys, stelae, and treasure maps together.
- Confirm the in-save counter before sailing away.
