For players seeking to unearth every secret in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, a thorough understanding of the game's Treasure Map system is essential. These maps, found on fallen pirates or through restoring fragmented charts, pinpoint the locations of Buried Chests containing various riches, outfits, and design plans.

Northern Caribbean Treasure Maps

The northern region of the Caribbean hosts a significant number of treasure maps. Players can find these by exploring various islands and settlements. For instance, Treasure Map (North) #1, found in Great Inagua, leads to a Buried Chest in Nassau (coordinates 586,755) containing an Elite Sails Design Plan and 3,000 reales. Another map, Treasure Map (North) #2, located on Mariguana Island, directs players to a chest on Andreas Island (544,693) offering a Harpoon Strength Ultimate Plan and 3,000 reales.

These fragments are obtained through various means, including plundering warehouses, disabling pirate hunter frigates, and hunting white jaguars. The Treasure Dealer in Great Inagua, accessible after building the General Store and Tavern and upgrading it, is where these fragments are restored for a cost in reales and specific resources like tobacco, sugar, or rum barrels.

Finally, the Restored Digested Map, requiring two Digested Map Pieces, reveals a chest in Santanillas (188,215) that holds the Hunter’s Outfit and Hunter’s Amulet.
