Unlocking Pistol Swords in Asassion’s Creed IV: Black Flag

assassins-creed-4-black-flag

I know I need to complete the Assasination Contracts to unlock the pistol swords, but do I have to complete them perfectly? I noticed some of these missions have additional rewards for "stay our of combat", do I need to get those rewards to be able to unlock the swords?

You do not need to "100% perfect" the assassination missions. The requirement for unlocking the pistol swords is simply "complete all assassination missions".

I was not sure if I was remembering this correctly, but confirmed this with the IGN guide, and the Assassin Creed Wikia.

The sub-objectives, IIRC, are simply a means to earn more reward. They may, however, count towards 100% synchronisation.
