The Stamp Act and the Quartering Act
I believe the most important factor was their foreign help, from Spain and France. Without the help, the Patriots wouldn't have stood too much of a chance.
What would be a direct consequence of what the British most hoped to achieve with the navigation acts?
tax acts and british governing
so they could get freedom and independence
didnt have a lot of people in their army. low on money
Many patriots viewed the Intolerable Acts (known as the Coercive Acts in the United Kingdom) as unjustified and infuriating punishments. They believed that they had done no wrong in protesting Parliament's taxes. Though in reality very few colonists supported the Boston Tea Party (most thought of it as a degrading extremist act and Benjamin Franklin stressed that the tea should be repaid in full), they believed it was unfair of the British Crown to punish the whole of Massachusetts for the acts of a minority group. In contrast, the British government thought the Acts were more than justified due to the "appalling event" of having over £90,000 (about USD $1,529,052 today) of British tea dumped into the water. Parliament believed the colonists were clearly in the wrong and should reimburse the loss.

Townshed acts

Townshend Acts : Plato (:
The boycott of the stamp act was the most famous reaction of the patriots (not to mention one of the first) and caught the attention of the British empire. This is an arguable subject, but I'd consider it logical to consider the boycott as the most effective because it was the first protest and the one that sparked the most extreme reactions by the patriots towards the British. Most of which involved getting hammered and burning down buildings or threatening enforcers with effigies hung on trees by the neck.
