How to get the Dilettante achievement in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced

The Dilettante achievement is a silver trophy in Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, and it’s all about fully decorating the Great Inagua Manor.

AC Black Flag Resynced Dilettante achievement

  • Dilettante is unlocked by fully decorating Great Inagua Manor.
  • You need to collect and place all required art, weapons, portraits, ship models, and paintings.
  • Nothing is missable, so you can finish it after the main story.
  • Once every display slot in the manor is filled, the achievement unlocks.

It may sound simple, but it takes a lot of collecting, patience, and planning, especially when it comes to Kenway’s Fleet. You can finish the whole thing after the main story.

What the Dilettante achievement requires in AC Black Flag Resynced

The Dilettante is one of the 49 achievements in AC Black Flag Resynced, and to unlock it, you need to fill every art collection and equipment slot in Great Inagua Manor. That means collecting and displaying art pieces, paintings, portraits, ship models, swords, pistols, and one outfit. The common requirements span 41 Art Pieces, nine Paintings, 20 Ship Models, 11 Portraits, 18 Swords, 12 Pistols, and one Outfit.

The best way to approach this achievement is by starting early and keeping collecting as you play the story. Fleet missions are the biggest bottleneck because a chunk of the Art Pieces comes from random Piracy rewards, so it helps to keep Brigs running in Kenway’s Fleet whenever possible. For that, I would recommend saving your game manually before you accept Fleet reports, because if no Art Piece appears, you can reload and try again.

Art Pieces

Gathering Art Pieces is the main grind here as they are spread across several sources. They come from world collectibles, General Store purchases, warehouse rewards, local events, treasure maps, and Kenway’s Fleet Piracy missions.

The Fleet side is the slowest part, so focus on those random rewards first while cleaning up the fixed locations in the open world.

Paintings

You only need nine Paintings for the achievement, even though there are 12 total in the game. Warehouse activities give you nine of them, while the remaining three can be bought from a secret General Store vendor. Getting these paintings is one of the easier parts of this achievement.

Portraits

Portraits are tied to story progress and specific side quests or locations, and they usually become easier to finish near the end of the game.

Some portraits do not appear until the character has died or the related mission is completed, so don’t panic if a few are missing early on. Once the story is further along, you can clean up the remaining portraits from their listed locations.

Ship Models

There are 20 Ship Models to display in the manor, and they unlock as you defeat or obtain different ship types across the game.

Some come naturally through story progress, but the legendary ships and faction ships are usually the ones players still need late in the run. Once you have all 20, they can be displayed in the cabinet in the Fleet planning room.

Swords, pistols, and outfit

In the last part of this achievement, you need 18 Swords, 12 Pistols, and one Outfit, and these are mostly tied to normal gameplay, chests, store purchases, and story progress.

By the time you finish most of the other manor items, you should only need to mop up a few missing weapons if you have been looting regularly.

Manor setup

Getting the items is only half the job, because Dilettante only unlocks after everything is placed in Great Inagua Manor. Each room has display slots, and you need to fill them all before the achievement pops. If one slot is still empty, the achievement will stay locked.

If everything looks right but it still does not pop, double-check the manor layout and make sure every display point has been used.

Can you unlock the Dilettante achievement after finishing the story?

Yes, the achievement can still be unlocked after the main story is done.

What is the hardest part of getting Dilettante?

The Art Pieces, especially the ones tied to Kenway’s Fleet, as these can take time to line up.

Do you need every single weapon and collectible?

No, you only need the specific manor display requirements.

Why didn’t the achievement pop after you’ve collected everything?

Place the items in Great Inagua Manor. If it still doesn’t unlock, check if every display slot is filled.
