The best Assassin’s Creed Mirage Skills enhance perception, overpower key tools, and unlock all new attacks, making Basim even more of a super-assassin. Most skills unlock by playing through the main Assassin’s Creed Mirage story, completing Contract missions or other extras, but These are the options you should prioritise over everything else for the benefits they give:
- Pathfinder
- Chain Assassination
- Engineer
- Pickpocket Master
- Knife Recovery
- Extra Tool Capacity 1,2, and 3
These skills in Assassin's Creed Mirage help you power up Basim quickly and the benefits are far too good to ignore. Below I've got a better look at them all in more detail.
Assassin’s Creed Mirage best skills
There are some standout skills in Assassin’s Creed Mirage that you should try to unlock as soon as you can to improve your abilities. Although having a good Assassin's Creed Mirage outfit will help too.
Primarily, almost all the Trickster Skill tree options, which largely revolves around traps and tools at Basim’s disposal, are easily some of my favorite, but here’s a quick rundown of all the best Skills to unlock in Assassin’s Creed Mirage, in no particular order:
6. Extra Tool Capacity 1,2, and 3
Each of these levels gives you a new tool unlock for the Banu Musa brothers. Visit any Hidden One Bureau and speak to the relevant Musa bro to unlock another tool. Getting all six tools early on is a huge help as they’re all quite useful, although be aware that you won’t be able to unlock this Skill until you’ve progressed through a few main missions.
5. Knife Recovery
This allows you to recover Throwing Knives from dead targets. Because these are both powerful weapons and useful tools, being able to retrieve them means you’ll rarely run out, and means you’ll be spending fewer Dinhars on resupplying.
4. Pickpocket Master
This makes the quick time event for high-tier pouches much easier and auto-pickpockets low-tier pouches. Pickpocketing is very useful for gathering Tokens and valuable trinkets, and this Skill makes it so much easier and more efficient.
3. Engineer
Allows you to apply a second Tier 1 upgrade for all six tools. The Tier 1 upgrades tend to be pretty basic, usually increasing effect radius, duration, or ammo capacity, but getting to pick two can really enhance some tools.
2. Chain Assassination
After you assassinate an enemy, assassinate a second nearby enemy, or throw a knife at them. This really helps to quickly eliminating groups of guards, and is great for silencing enemies that wander into view just as you kill their friend.
1. Pathfinder
Enkidu’s View reveals Keys and highlights opportunities like Chests with a glow. Secret entrances are also easier to discover. Considering this is the first perk in the Predator Skill tree, it’s a great one to get that provides a nice initial boost to Enkidu’s scouting abilities and should be your first or second Skill unlock.
How to get Skill Points in Assassin’s Creed Mirage
Assassin’s Creed Mirage doesn’t have the usual XP-based levelling system, with progression instead tied to completing missions. That means the main way to get Skill Points and unlock Assassin's Creed Mirage Skills is through completing the main investigation and case missions.
Early in the game, you’ll usually get a single Skill Point upon completing a mission, but later on you’ll start getting two or three at a time. Over the story you should earn enough Skill Points to unlock most of the 23 Skills, and you can definitely unlock all of the ones listed above.
There are also a few optional Contract missions to pick up that’ll offer you a Skill Point or two as a reward, as well as Tokens and resources, helping you to unlock those last few Skills.
It’s worth mentioning that you can also reset your Skills at any time and at no cost by holding X or Square on Xbox or PlayStation respectively in the Skills menu. This allows you to reallocate your Skill Points to unlock a different things if you feel like you’ve chosen the wrong ones.
So that should help you get Basim a lot more powerful, quickly. Id you want more general help then I've got some Assassin's Creed Mirage tips to help you out too!
