When it comes to personal ranged combat, Edward Kenway can select from a number of Pistols in Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag Resynced. Unlike Swords, there are no sub-classes, and the differences in naming convention are purely cosmetic. However, there are tiers of rarity, specifically Common, Rare, and the very best tier: Legendary, which has a unique perk for every weapon.
This Assassin’s Creed 4 Black Flag Resynced guide is a complete listing of every single Legendary Pistol in the game, and their locations or unlock requirements.
