This article is part of a directory: Assassin's Creed Mirage: Complete Guide & Walkthrough

Table of contents

Assassin's Creed Mirage offers a challenging experience for the players as they put themselves in Basim's shoes and explore the city of Baghdad. In case players get bored by the buildings, they can go beyond the walls and into the wilderness, where there is sand as far as the eye can see.

Hiding behind the sand dunes are various treasures that can prove to be extremely helpful in Basim's adventure. Aside from the swords, daggers, and outfits, players can also enhance Basim's strength by unlocking various skills. In the beginning, players will only have access to a handful of them, but more and more will open up as the story progresses.

Best Skills to Get in Assassin's Creed Mirage

There are more than 15 skills in Assassin's Creed Mirage, which may be confusing for some players. But some skills should be prioritized over the rest. Here are the best skills in AC Mirage that players should try to unlock as soon as possible:

All Tool capacity upgrades are absolutely necessary to unlock, as they will give players more freedom in missions. However, do not spend all skill points in one go; instead, unlock them slowly.
Stealth Recon is arguably the best skill in Assassin's Creed Mirage. Once players unlock this particular skill, the game will become much easier. While the rest of the Predator skill tree may not seem that appealing, Stealth Recon more than makes up for it.
Pathfinder is one of the earliest skills that will be available to unlock. Given the vast number of chests and other treasures in and around Baghdad, Enkidu's vision is priceless.
Assassin's Focus can prove to be an incredibly powerful skill in Assassin's Creed Mirage, especially while tackling multiple opponents at the same time. The first upgrade is highly recommended.
Knife Recovery allows players to have an unlimited number of throwing knives. They are used for a variety of purposes in the game, which include getting rid of enemies and opening locked doors and windows.
On their adventure, players will have to kill many guards and other enemies. Initially, they have to manually loot the dead bodies. But if they unlock Auto-collect, the task becomes much simpler.
Engineer is another splendid skill to have, especially if players rely on their tools a lot during fights.
