Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: Legendary Ship Battles Prove Tough with 47% Win Rate

Having trouble taking down the Legendary Ships in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced? You're definitely not the only one.

Ubisoft has just released player stats showing that encounters with these formidable foes have a mere 47% success rate, meaning over half of all attempts to sink these boss vessels end in defeat.

Of course, it's still early days. Black Flag Resynced has only been out for a month, so many players likely tried to tackle a Legendary Ship before fully upgrading their Jackdaw. And even with the best gear, these ships are designed as endgame content—they're not supposed to be a walk in the park!

Other juicy stats from Ubisoft reveal that players have spent a staggering 8.07 million hours crouching manually (a feature not in the original game), which accounts for 10% of total playtime. Hey, sneaking around is just too much fun.

In the first month, fans have sailed an incredible 40.07 million in-game kilometers—equivalent to 1,000 trips around the Earth or 52 round trips to the Moon (remember when Assassin's Creed was rumored to end on a spaceship?).

When it comes to gear, the Le Bourgeyoys Blades cutlass is currently the most popular weapon, while the Privateer outfit takes the crown for favorite costume. (Seriously, go redeem those Animus points and unlock something cooler.) But my personal favorite stat? Players have petted 28.29 million animals, with cats being the top choice, of course.

Last week, Ubisoft dropped the latest patch for Black Flag Resynced, but fans are still eagerly awaiting news on the previously confirmed New Game Plus mode.
