100% Synchronization Pro Tips

Always carry full Smoke Bombs and Sleep Darts: 80% of optional constraints require non-lethal takedowns or staying undetected. Smoke bombs allow you to bypass entire guard lines.
Equip the Mayan Outfit: Once unlocked from the 16 Mayan Stelae, its bullet immunity makes all "Kill gunners" and "Survive boarding without taking damage" constraints effortless.
Check Mission Constraints at Memory Start: Pause the game as soon as a memory begins and review both optional objectives before moving Edward.
