First move

Take the Andreas Island contract, read its optional condition, and mark the speaker and a usable stalking zone before moving through the conversation area.

Player workbench

Identify the marked speaker at Andreas Island and reach a recognized stalking zone before the optional final strike.

The speaker's conversation identifies the target, but an open-ground kill can close the required contract without the separate stalking-zone payout. Cover position and target identity must both be confirmed before the strike.

Why this entry is useful

A target-identification-to-stalking-zone route that distinguishes conversation tracking from the final kill position and includes a watched-entry retreat before the contract closes.

Current Resynced contract coverage identifies Andreas Island's pigeon coop, the target speaking with enslaved people, and the optional stalking-zone result. The exact live zone and guard lane have not been tested in a current save.

Safe first move

Take the Andreas Island contract, read its optional condition, and mark the speaker and a usable stalking zone before moving through the conversation area.

Finish line

The marked target and contract close in the current save; any stalking-zone result offered by the active brief is recorded as a separate payout.

Save proofKnow when it worked

The marked target and contract close in the current save; any stalking-zone result offered by the active brief is recorded as a separate payout.

How to use it

Separate the speaker from Edward's final-kill position

First identify the person named by the active marker; then confirm that Edward is inside a recognized stalking zone when the target is killed. Conversation proximity and stealth status are not the same proof.

Recovery path

When the conversation lane is watched

Withdraw before the kill, break sight, and re-mark the speaker from a safe edge. Re-enter only when another stalking-zone lane is actually open; if the contract closes, trust its recorded result rather than assuming a replay.

Andreas coop → marked speaker → recognized stalking zone

  1. Accept the pigeon-coop contract and read the live target marker plus the optional kill condition before approaching the conversation area.
  2. From outside the guards' sightlines, identify the marked speaker and trace a covered path into a stalking zone. Do not mistake merely staying undetected for the required final-kill position.
  3. Wait inside the recognized stalking zone until the target is in reach, kill from that cover, and check the completed contract plus any separate 500-Reales result before leaving Andreas Island.

Route Plan

How to use A Slaver's Business — Andreas Island Assassin Contract

Take A Slaver's Business from the Andreas Island pigeon coop, identify the marked speaker, and choose a live stalking zone before closing in. The final target kill must come from that cover for the optional payout when the current objective offers it.

  1. Accept the Andreas Island contract and confirm the target plus any stalking-zone bonus in the live objective.
  2. Watch the marked speaker from outside the conversation area, then follow a covered lane into a stalking zone the game recognizes.
  3. Strike from that zone only when the target is within reach; confirm the completed contract and separate 500-Reales result.

Save Checklist

Save Checklist

Use these checks before marking A Slaver's Business — Andreas Island Assassin Contract complete.

  • Entry type: Mission Walkthrough.
  • Recommended check: Check memory.
  • Main risk: Rushing the conversation or striking just outside cover can lose the optional result; a finished contract may not offer a retry.
  • Confirm the marker, reward, or requirement in the current Resynced build.
  • Open next: stealth.

Open the named brief

Open the named brief

The contract board starts the job; the target marker, not the old map route, decides where this save sends Edward.

  • When the Andreas Island Assassin Contracts board is available, accept A Slaver's Business at the island's pigeon coop. Confirm the marked speaker, the current route marker, and any stalking-zone condition before approaching the conversation area.
  • Eliminate the marked target; for the optional 500-Reales result, make the target kill from a stalking zone recognized by the current contract.
  • Accept the pigeon-coop contract and read the live target marker plus the optional kill condition before approaching the conversation area.

Choose the target approach

Choose the target approach

Use the local landmark and patrol state to decide how to enter Andreas Island pigeon coop and the target's conversation area.

  • Take the Andreas Island contract, read its optional condition, and mark the speaker and a usable stalking zone before moving through the conversation area.
  • From outside the guards' sightlines, identify the marked speaker and trace a covered path into a stalking zone. Do not mistake merely staying undetected for the required final-kill position.

Keep the bonus separate

Keep the bonus separate

A target kill can close the contract while its extra payout remains unearned. Check the active condition and final result independently.

  • A current Resynced contract listing reports a separate 500-Reales stalking-zone result. Read the live brief and use a zone the game recognizes for the final kill; remaining unseen outside that zone is not equivalent.
  • Wait inside the recognized stalking zone until the target is in reach, kill from that cover, and check the completed contract plus any separate 500-Reales result before leaving Andreas Island.
  • The marked speaker is eliminated and the named contract closes. If the active brief offered the stalking-zone payout, verify that result separately in the save.

Recover the route

Recover the route

If the target moves away from the cover or a guard spots Edward before the strike, withdraw without killing the target, break sight, and re-mark the conversation area from a safe edge. Choose another live stalking zone if the first lane stays watched. After the target dies, check the actual payout; do not assume a closed contract can be replayed for the optional reward.

  • If the marker or target position changes, reopen the current contract and map before approaching again.
  • After a closed contract, read the actual target and payout states before assuming a replay can restore a missed result.

Common Questions

Where does A Slaver's Business start on Andreas Island?

Take the contract from the island's pigeon coop, then follow the live marker to the target speaking with enslaved people. Identify him before choosing a covered approach.

How do I earn the extra 500 Reales?

Kill the marked target from a stalking zone when the current objective offers that condition. Being unseen on open ground is not enough; confirm Edward is in recognized cover before striking.

What if guards watch the stalking-zone entrance?

Pull back before the target kill, break their sightline and mark another cover entry. If the contract is already complete, check the actual payout rather than assuming the optional reward can be replayed.
