Roadmap to Platinum: Your Assassin’s Creed Mirage Trophy Journey

This roadmap is designed to maximize your efficiency and enjoyment while securing every trophy in Assassin’s Creed Mirage. Follow these steps to ensure you don’t miss anything and unlock that coveted Platinum.

Step 1: Story Completion & Viewpoint Synchronization (12-15 Hours)

Begin your journey by focusing on the main storyline. Progressing through the narrative unlocks essential tools and opens up the world. Playing the story first grants access to all collectibles and side content later on. Difficulty doesn’t impact trophies, so feel free to choose ‘Easy’ for a smoother experience.

Key Objectives during Step 1:

• Story Missions: Complete all main story quests to unlock game features and progress.

• Viewpoints: Synchronize with all Viewpoints to reveal the map, collectibles, and fast travel locations. This is a significant time-saver for later steps. Prioritize Viewpoint synchronization early after unlocking the camel mount for faster traversal.

• Missable Trophy Alert: Be vigilant for the You Snooze, You Lose trophy. This requires pickpocketing a guard affected by a blowdart, specifically guards carrying keys (orange key icon) or Mysterious Shards. Opportunities are limited, making it easily missable. The blowdart is obtained during the “Branching Out” main quest. A recommended early opportunity is an enemy with a key on “The Bazaar” roof in the Karkh district.

• Gameplay Setting Optimization (Time Saver): Enable “Guaranteed Pickpocket” in Gameplay Options. This ensures successful pickpocketing attempts every time, removing the Quick Time Event and saving time, while also allowing you to sell stolen items for Dirhams.

• Merchant Favor Tokens & Components (Time Saver): Spend Merchant Favor Tokens at traders to permanently reduce prices by 30%. Prioritize buying Components (Cogs) whenever available. You’ll need 1460 Components to fully upgrade all Tools, making them the rarest resource. Buy in stacks of 100 to optimize resource gathering. Merchant Favor Tokens are obtained through pickpocketing.

• Skill Points: Begin accumulating skill points through story progression and exploring points of interest.

By the end of Step 1, you should have completed the main story, synchronized all viewpoints, and potentially unlocked some miscellaneous trophies naturally.

Step 2: Collectibles Cleanup (5 Hours)

With the story completed and the map fully revealed, it’s time to focus on collecting all collectibles.

Collectible Focus:

• Comprehensive Collection: Gather all types of collectibles across all districts for 100% territory exploration, excluding Enigma solutions (only Enigma scrolls are needed for territory completion). This includes Gear Chests, Lost Books, Enigmas, Historical Sites, Mysterious Shards, and Tales of Baghdad.

• Utilize Guides: Refer to detailed collectible guides to efficiently locate all items.

• Explorer Trophy: Completing this step will unlock the Explorer trophy for fully exploring all territories.

Step 3: Contracts, Skills, and Tool Upgrades (2 Hours)

This step focuses on maximizing Basim’s abilities and toolset.

Skill & Upgrade Objectives:

• Faction Contracts: Complete Contracts (side quests from Hidden Ones’ Bureau) to earn remaining skill points. Aim to finish the majority of contracts to acquire the necessary skill points to unlock all skills. Contracts also reward materials for tool upgrades.

• Skill Point Acquisition: Combine story completion, collectible gathering (Lost Books & Tales of Baghdad), and Contract completion to gain sufficient skill points for unlocking all skills and the Self-Improvement trophy.

• Tool Upgrades: Fully upgrade all Tools using gathered materials. Remember to continuously purchase Components from traders. Prioritize Components over Steel Ingots and Leather, as Components are rarer.

  The Hidden Ones’ Bureau, a central hub for accessing contracts, tool upgrades, and progressing towards trophy completion.

• Resource Management: If short on Steel Ingots or Leather, purchase them from traders. Consider completing more Contracts or delivering Artifacts to Dervis for additional materials.

• Tools of the Trade Trophy: Fully upgrading all tools unlocks the Tools of the Trade trophy.

Step 4: Miscellaneous Trophies Cleanup (2 Hours)

By this stage, you will likely have unlocked many miscellaneous trophies naturally. This step is to mop up any remaining trophies.

Miscellaneous Trophy Focus:

• Targeted Trophy Hunting: Review the trophy list and identify any remaining miscellaneous trophies.
• Efficient Farming: Utilize open-world locations to quickly farm any remaining miscellaneous trophies. Refer to specific trophy descriptions for efficient farming methods and locations.

Key Miscellaneous Trophies and Tips:

• You Snooze, You Lose (Missable): If missed earlier, load an earlier save or start a new game and prioritize this early on.

• Eagle’s Eye & Bird of Prey: Tag 100 guards with Enkidu. Easily farmed in restricted areas.

• Eagle’s Will & Notorious: Survive 10 minutes in open conflict and at maximum notoriety.

• Gifted Escapist: Collapse 20 scaffolding structures. Fast travel between viewpoints to respawn scaffolds for quick farming.

• A True Hidden One: Assassinate 10 guards in a row without open conflict. Damascus Gate Prison is a good location.

• Unstoppable: Kill 5 guards with one Assassin’s Focus use. The Great Garrison in Karkh district is ideal.

• Silencer: Destroy a Horn Bearer’s horn with a throwing knife. Metal Factory in Harbiyah is a good spot.

• Hoarder: Save 2007 Dirhams. Pickpocket and sell loot at The Bazaar or Round City viewpoint.

• Patron Trophies: Pay musicians, mercenaries, and merchant groups 5 times each.

• Fashion Statement & Masquerader: Ensure you unlock these story-related and dye-related cosmetic trophies.

• Treasure Seeker & Potion Collector: Open a token chest and gather 10 elixirs, these should unlock naturally.

• Crossing Paths, Scholar, Riddle Me This, Curio Collector: Complete Tales of Baghdad, Lost Books, Enigmas, and Dervis Artifacts, all covered in Step 2 Collectibles.

• Cutting Edge & Thick Skin: Fully upgrade a weapon and outfit. Covered in Step 3 Tool Upgrades.

• Throwing Knife & Blowdart Trophies: Eagle’s Eye, Headhunter, Sleep Tight. Farm kills using these tools if needed.

• Ambush, Up in Smoke, Attention Seeker: Use traps, smoke bombs, and noisemakers on guards. Farm as needed.

• The Hands of a Thief & Street Cleaner: Pickpocket 50 people and hide 5 bodies in hay bales. Bazaar is good for pickpocketing, hay bales are common.

• Dawn and Dusk: Use benches to pass time 5 times.

• Blade in the Crowd & Surprise!: Assassinate guards while blending and from hiding spots. Common gameplay actions.

• The Shadow and the Flame & Silencer: Defeat a Shakiriyya and destroy a Horn Bearer’s horn, specific enemy actions.

• Poster Boy & Spread the News: Max notoriety and use wanted posters/Munadi, notoriety related actions.

Once you have cleared up all miscellaneous trophies, the Platinum trophy, Master of His Fate, will unlock, marking the completion of your Assassin’s Creed Mirage trophy journey!
