The first time I slipped a new coat onto Edward Kenway I felt naked without it—until a volley of muskets reminded me why appearance matters. A governor’s guard mistook me for a diplomat; the plan unraveled in ten heartbeats. I learned which outfits buy you silence, which buy you a price, and which paint a target on your back.
I’m going to walk you through every outfit Edward can wear in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and what you actually need to do to get them. You’ll get precise locations, shop prices, and the trade recipes that matter. Think of this as the field guide that saves you time and embarrassment on the high seas.
On a damp morning I found a chest tucked under a mangrove root — How to get all Edward outfits in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced
You don’t need to memorize every coordinate to collect the best looks, but you do need a little patience and the right trades. Below is the full table of outfits you can obtain through in-game actions, stores, chests, side quests, and trades. Use Ubisoft’s in-game map, the Animus Store, and the Treasure Dealer at Great Inagua as your main checkpoints; they’re the reliable tools that separate busy work from meaningful progress.

How do I get all of Edward’s outfits?
If you want every outfit, you’ll mix normal play with targeted goals: finish story beats (Edward Kenway questline), clear specific side quests (Mayan Mysteries, Art Lover), grind Assassin Contracts, open chest coordinates, and trade pelts or bones at the Treasure Dealer in Great Inagua. Use Ubisoft Connect and the in-game map to track which towns still offer store purchases or chest icons.
I’ve lost more than one item to a mis-click — Chest hunts, trades, and coordinates that actually matter
Treasure hunting feels like using an old compass: sometimes it spins, but the right push brings you to a chest. The table above lists chest coordinates; if you’re chasing rare gear, prioritize islands with multiple named chests. For pelts and bones, target hunting zones and make the trip to Great Inagua’s Treasure Dealer for clean trades.
Are there secret or promo outfits I might miss?
Yes. Packs from the Helix Store and pre-order incentives can put outfits off your radar unless you visit Ubisoft’s storefront or the Animus Store. Moyens I/O and similar outlets often list temporary bundles, so follow Ubisoft’s official channels and community hubs (Discord, Reddit) if you want those limited skins.
I’ve worn the wrong coat into a governor’s ball — Strategy for choosing what to wear
You should pick outfits for purpose: stealth for contracts, diplomat or politician garb for social missions, heavy armor for risky assaults. One outfit can make patrols ignore you; another paints you as a treasure hunter. Treat your wardrobe like provisioning a ship — the wrong choice leaves you exposed.
I recommend these practical priorities: finish story quests early to get base robes and quest drops, clear 16 Assassin Contracts for the Stealth outfit, and farm hunting materials if you want the Whaler or Feline sets. If you’re short on time and willing to spend, the Helix Store and Animus Store list ready-made packs.
Two final notes: the game’s in-world currency listings use Reales; the figures in the table show approximate EUR equivalents for convenience. And if you’re cataloging every costume, treat the Templar keys and Mayan Stones as checkpoints—those are the ones that demand deliberate searching.
I’ve given you the map and the compass—will you dress Edward to be anonymous, feared, or remembered?
