All Royal Letter locations
Search the indicated locations to find all 12 Royal Correspondence Letters and get the “A Life In Letters” trophy. The merchants do not sell maps for this type of collectible. Fortunately, they are all fairly close together in Buckingham, Westminster. Use eagle vision when near their location to see them on the map. If you buy the skill upgrade that increases eagle vision range, it will be easier to find collectibles. You can buy treasure maps for chests, beer brands, historical posters, and pressed flowers from merchants (e.g. from the black market merchant in your train). All Royal Letters are saved automatically when collecting them. You can view how many you have found on the map.
All Secrets Of London (music boxes) locations
Search the indicated locations to find all 32 Secrets Of London (music boxes). You can hear the music boxes when you are close to them. Use eagle vision to locate them quicker. Unlike other collectibles, there is not a map available at merchants. You can buy a map from the E-Store with micro-transactions, but that costs real money. Once all music boxes have been found, bring them to Reuge’s Vault. Interact with all levers in the vault to unlock the Aegis outfit for Evie and get the “Godlike” trophy. You will also get four skill points. The Aegis outfit is the best outfit in the game — and you should try to get it as early as possible. Note: It can only be worn by Evie.

Easy “Artisan” trophy
To craft a Level 10 item, you must first get the schematic and unique material. Schematics are rewards for game completion and can also be found in locked chests. Unique materials are obtained from locked chests (fixed locations) and by completing certain side quests. A good and easy choice to get the “Artisan” trophy is “Aegis Cloak”. You get the schematic for defeating the final story mission (Sequence 9: Memory 4). The unique material “Golden Spider Silk” can be found in the Strand borough from a locked chest.
Easy “Look Out Below” trophy
A great place to kill three enemies with a single stack of hanging barrels is at the start of Sequence 4: Memory 2. There is one enemy standing under hanging barrels and two others will come to talk to him. Shoot the barrels with your pistol when they are standing underneath to instantly kill them and get the “Look Out Below” trophy. Note: You can replay this mission any time by going to the main menu and selecting “Progression Log”, “Progress Tracker” to replay it.
Easy “Needle In A Haystack” trophy
A great place to kill five enemies from within the same haystack is in Sequence 6: Memory 2. At the start of the mission, you must investigate three weapon crates. Go to the middle one to find a haystack. Jump in from the building above. Two guards are standing by the haystack. Another will walk past it after half a minute. The last two enemies are patrolling the area; whistle to lure them to you (press D-pad Down). Make sure nobody sees how you assassinate someone from inside the haystack, as it will blow your cover. You are also allowed to leave the haystack and whistle at other enemies to lure them to you.
Easy “Opium Scourge” trophy
You get the Hallucinogenic Darts in Sequence 4: Memory 4. This memory is also a great place to get the “Opium Scourge” trophy. The only way to affect four enemies simultaneously is to shoot the darts into a fire source. The darts will then disperse their effects over a greater area. Alert several enemies and lure them to a fire source. Counter their attacks until more than four enemies are standing right next to the fire source. Then, climb onto any structure and shoot the dart into the fire. Note: You cannot aim the darts while in ground combat (only quick fire works). That is why you should climb onto a structure, as it will let you aim the darts manually. If something goes wrong, simply reload the last checkpoint.
Easy “Queensbury Rules” trophy
It is best to get a x40 combo in fight clubs. The first one is unlocked in the “City Of London” borough. Talk to Robert Topping; he is marked with a “T” symbol on the map. Progress to the last round, and you should have more than enough enemies to get a x40 combo. Avoid being hit to keep your combo streak going — make sure to counter when the bar above an enemy’s head is flashing yellow. If your character is already at a higher level, you should visit one of the harder fight clubs since the enemies may die too quickly.
