Assassin’s Creed Mirage: Tips and Tricks for Beginners

by Fernando Diaz / Game Guides, General Guides, Tips & Tricks / 05 May 2021

Hey y’all! If you just picked up Assassin’s Creed Mirage & are feeling a bit lost in the sands, don’t sweat it!! I’ve been grinding through the alleys and rooftops of this game, and I’m here to drop some serious knowledge bombs to get you started; let’s dive right in!

Back to the Shadows…

Mirage ain’t your hack-n-slash fantasy. Nah, this game is all about the OG stealth vibes of Assassin’s Creed. If you’re thinking you can run into a crowd and just start hacking away – think again.

Building Bar Buzz: Keep your eyes peeled on the bar at the top of your screen. If it’s turning orange, you’re chill. But if it’s turning red? Bruh, get out of there before things go south. No one likes an unexpected brawl.

Grenades? More like Game Changers

If you’re aiming for those slick stealthy vibes, the smoking grenade is your BFF. You drop this bad boy in the middle of a crowd and then swoop in for those sweet stealth take-downs.

Get this upgrade ASAP; trust me, it’s a game-changer.

Your Feathered Buddy Needs Some TLC

So, you remember the iconic eagle from the series? Yeah, it’s back, but with a twist. Those sniper dudes with the eagle icons? They’re bad news for your feathery friend. Snipe them out first, or you’re gonna miss out on all the eagle-eye action.

Points Make Prizes… but Choose Wisely

Every time you think about spending those precious skill points on some fancy tool, just remember: the same points power up your skills and abilities. Don’t go all willy-nilly; plan out your upgrades. If you’re feeling lost, starting with the smoke bomb and blow dart gun is a solid move.

The Streets are Watching

Ever get the feeling you’re being watched? In Mirage, you are. Doing shady stuff out in the open will crank up your wanted level. And if you max it out? Oh boy, you’ll get some super buffed dudes on your tail who just don’t play fair. To cool things off:

Wanted Posters: These aren’t just for show. Grab ’em to drop your heat.

Talk to Monadi: Look, I might be butchering the name, but you get the drift. Find this dude to help lower your notoriety.

Hands in Their Pockets

Always be on your hustle. See those folks with gold pouches? Jack ’em. They got the goods. And those silver ones? Meh, they’re aight. But gold? That’s where the real loot’s at, especially those tokens for trading.

Secret Seeker

Mirage might not be as vast as some of the other AC games, but it’s got its fair share of Easter eggs. Those mystery shard guys you spot occasionally? Swipe those shards! -> they’re basically a ticket to some of the best gear in Mirage.

Artifact Addict

On the hunt for upgrade materials? Look no further than the dervish artifacts. Stack them up, and you can trade ’em in for some sweet loot, including the leather and iron you’ll be needing later on.

The Real XP Grind

If you’re looking for that traditional XP grind, Mirage might throw you for a loop. You don’t just level up by kicking ass; you gotta hit those milestones. Need skill points?

Lost Books: They’re scattered around, waiting for you. Also, check out some guides online to find ’em.

Bureau Contracts: Go for the ones that reward skill points. That’s some easy leveling right there.
