S5 M2: The Arsenal Gates

Sequence 05, Memory 02 -- The Arsenal Gates

When you approach the next mission marker you immediately trigger a CS in which money exchanges hands, buying access to the Arsenal District.  Tarik is clearly up to something -- and Yusuf is here as well, so you chat with him and learn about a shipment of weapons that have been delivered to the Arsenal.  As you are discussing what to do about getting inside the restricted district, you winess the Janissary abuse of a helpless merchant of produce, and it gives you an idea -- if you can provoke the citizens to riot perhaps that will serve as a way into the district?

To obtain 100% Synchronization on this, you will need to ensure that at least 40 of the rioters survive their encounter with The Man...  It can help a lot if you use a Heavy Weapon like the French Bastard Sword -- and there is a Smith here if you need to buy one...

Starting a Riot to Gain Access to the Arsenal

So first thing you want to do is bribe three Heralds to make the announcement that you want -- which will result in the locals going batshit on the district -- at which point The Man tries to crush this rebellion!  All that you need to do is start killing Guards -- but do it quickly.  Call in Assassins, use your blades, smash their heads in, do whatever you have to, but wipe them out!

A Full Blown Riot outside the Arsenal

After you kill enough of them you will trigger a CS and then the second wave of Guards arrives -- simply do the same to them, wiping them out, and you trigger another CS in which the mission ends and, if you dealt death fast enough, in which you get the 100% Synchronization awarded to you!  Well done mates!  Good on ya!

This mission ends with the prompt to start the next, so when you are ready to do that, do that.
