The Upton Travers Templar Hunt in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is unlike any other questline in the game. What starts as a straightforward assassination contract quickly turns into a family drama, a drunken night out through Nassau, and a swamp ambush. Here is the complete step-by-step walkthrough for Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Anto Templar Hunt.
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced Upton Travers Templar Hunt Walkthrough
The questline begins with Vance Travers, found on a porch near the Nassau coast in the Eleuthera region. He's the one who kicks things off by sending you after his brother, Upton Travers, claiming Upton is betraying the Brotherhood. It doesn't stay that simple for long.

Before you can start Upton Travers, make sure you've completed This Old Cove. That's the unlock requirement for all four Templar Hunts in Black Flag Resynced.
The Templar Key from this quest is part of a larger puzzle, since there are three other Templar Hunts in Black Flag Resynced:
Finishing all of them unlocks the Templar Armor, which is one of the best rewards the game throws your way through side content.
Just like the other Templar Hunts, Upton Travers' questline runs through four missions, and each one builds naturally into the next.
Upton Travers Quest 1: Oh Brother...
After talking to Vance, Upton Travers' quest starts. Head to the market on the west side of Nassau. Try to find Upton's men walking through the streets. They'll be marked with green icons, making them easy to find.
You can finish this part in two ways:
- The first is to quietly follow the guards until they lead you to Upton's hideout.
- The second is to assassinate them and loot their bodies for clues.
When you reach the hideout, you'll find Upton standing in the middle of the courtyard. Sneak in through the nearby grass or climb onto the rooftops for an air assassination. Try to assassinate him, but don't expect things to go as planned. A cutscene reveals that Upton actually runs the local Assassin Bureau, and Vance has been lying to you from the start.

Upton Travers Quest 2: The Other Brother
Meet Upton by following the exclamation mark on your compass, and keep following him as he explains what's really happening. He tells you that he and Vance each own half of a treasure map, and Vance is trying to steal both pieces for the Templar Jing Lang.
Keep following Upton until he tells you to hide. Jump into the nearby bushes and eavesdrop on the brothers' conversation. Next, follow Upton to Vance's house. Four Templar guards are protecting it. Take out the two guards standing around the garden first, then deal with the two standing at the entrance.
Once the area is clear, check the northern side of the house to find a note on a table underneath an awning. It'll give you the location of Vance and Jing Lang's upcoming meeting.
Go to the tavern and hide underneath a wooden staircase adjacent to it. This is the only spot where you can properly eavesdrop on their conversation, so don't stand anywhere else. When the conversation ends, you'll learn that Vance has hired people to kill Upton. Now go to his location as fast as you can, eliminate the enemies, and then revive Upton.
Upton Travers Quest 3: Upton's Sorrow
Find Upton near the tavern to start the next mission. He's had a rough day and immediately gets into a fistfight with two drunk men.
Since nobody is using weapons, you need to knock them off balance, then finish them with regular attacks.
After the fight, follow Upton as he wanders through Nassau. He'll stop a few times along the way, including one moment where he refuses to leave a group of dancers alone. Pay them 100 Reales so they'll move on and let you continue.
Near the end of the mission, Upton gets himself into trouble again when a group of guards shows up. Defeat the guards to protect him, then talk to Upton to complete the quest.

Upton Travers Quest 4: Queen of Pirates, King of Fools
Meet Upton in the swamp on the western side of Nassau. He'll ask you to eliminate Vance and Jing Lang once and for all.
Head into the swamp, but don't waste time fighting every guard you see. Instead, climb onto the trees and use them to move across the area. Check out the green marker to spot Vance's tent, then assassinate him. You can use Sleep Dart to make him faint and just kill him afterwards.
After Vance falls, Jing Lang will run away. Chase her, but don't bother shooting or attacking her while she's running, since she's immune to damage during the chase. Eventually, she'll stop and fight back with two guards. Defeat the guards first, then continue to eliminate Jing Lang.
Finally, return to Upton, talk to him one last time, and collect your Templar Key to finish the entire questline.
Upton Travers Templar Hunt is the most human of the four questlines in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. The brotherly betrayal, the drunk escort through Nassau, and the swamp finale all come together in a way that feels pretty varied and interesting. Don't forget to continue with other Templar Hunts, so you can obtain the awesome Templar Armor.

FAQs
Vance Travers is on the island of Nassau in the Eleuthera region, standing outside a small wooden house toward the south of the island near the coast.
Yes, both options work. Killing them shrinks the search area on your map so you can still find Upton's hideout without following them all the way there.
Not really, but she's immune to damage while running, so don't waste ammo. Wait until she turns to fight, then use one parry to chain takedowns on her and both guards at once.
