Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced offers players the opportunity to give their crew a spooky makeover with the Deceased Crew Attire, commonly referred to as the skeleton crew. This cosmetic item transforms the player's living sailors into an emaciated, undead horde, enhancing the game's pirate ghost story elements.
The skeleton crew attire is available for purchase on a small, unmarked island located in the northwest of Gibara, directly south of Andreas Island. The exact coordinates for this location are (550, 638). Players will know they are close when they spot smoke rising from a campfire and can see a general store on the island. Within this store, the Deceased Crew Attire can be bought for 206 bones, a unique in-game currency.
Farming Bones
Acquiring the 206 bones required for the attire can be achieved through several methods. One primary way is by hunting animals, as each creature has a chance to drop bones, with larger animals yielding more. While hunting hutia on Cayman Sound is suggested due to their abundance and the lack of enemies, players can reset animal spawns by skipping time and fast traveling to different regions. The Exotic Sea Shells trinket, which is intended to increase yields from skinning animals, does not appear to affect bone drops but can be equipped while hunting for any potential, albeit unconfirmed, benefit.
Alternatively, bones can be purchased from the Treasure Dealer. This vendor becomes available after completing the main story quest "This Old Cove" and can be built as a town upgrade on Great Inagua. The Treasure Dealer sells bones for 1,000 reales each, a price that becomes more manageable once players reach the endgame and have accumulated spare currency. Farming gold is also presented as a potentially more engaging alternative to extensive animal hunting.
For players seeking a more direct route, the use of mods is also mentioned as a way to bypass the bone farming process. Mods such as "Encrypteds Resynced Ultimate Rewrite" can allow players to spawn bones, increase gold reserves, or enable free shop access.
Customization Options
To further enhance the pirate aesthetic, players can complement the skeleton crew attire with other cosmetic items. The Jackdaw's sails can be customized with the dark, tattered sails of the HMS Prince or the black sails of the HMS Fearless, both of which are obtained by defeating their respective legendary ships. For a more unconventional look, players might consider pairing the skeleton crew with the Red Bull sails, alongside collecting sea shanties and ship pets.
