Assassin's Creed 3 - How to Complete the Common Man's Encyclopedia
In Assassin's Creed 3 at the beginning of sequence 6 you will receive a particular secondary mission from Achilles. To proceed in this side-quest you will have to take snapshots from the everyday life of the various artisans present on the farm, in order to complete "the common man's encyclopedia".
In addition to allowing you to complete this mission, the long work will also yield an Objective / Trophy:
An extraordinary man - Complete the Encyclopedia of the Common Man.
As mentioned at the beginning this mission will start in Sequence 6. Remember that some of the craftsmen or workers to be included in the encyclopedia will only become available on the farm towards the end of the game, so I recommend that you start working on them only after you have completed the missions of the held and recruited all artisans (follow the guide to recruiting artisans).
When you have them all, visit them and you will have the opportunity to scan them while they carry out their duties (using the viewfinder that is used to lock enemies) and capture the moment in which they perform particular actions that will make up the various entries of the encyclopedia. Below you can see which actions need to be captured for each type of craftsman and worker.
Although different actions are indicated for each worker, it seems that it is not necessary to capture all of them to complete the encyclopedia, but only 3 should be enough for each craftsman.
