Assassin's Creed Mirage is the latest installment in the iconic Ubisoft franchise and promises a return to the days of old with stealth-based gameplay rather than the expansive open-world approach taken for Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. Taking control of Basim, players must head to the Assassin's Bureaus located in each district of the sprawling city of Baghdad. Here, "Investigations" will lead players to unmask the different members of The Order - a sinister cabal of influential figures and the arch nemesis of the Order of Assassins.
Assassin's Creed Mirage: How to Get the Zanj Uprising Outfit (& All Upgrade Schematics)
Keeping notoriety to a minimum is important in Assassin's Creed Mirage, and the Zanj Uprising outfit can help with that.
"The Raptor and the Demon" is the introductory quest located in Sharqiyah Bureau, which will help Basim uncover the identity and location of the Order member known as The Warlord. First, Basim must locate and take out his two generals: The Admiral Al-A'eshma and The General Al-Rukh. Both can initially be found by spying on a meeting between the two in the Officer's Club located in the Fief of Rayasanah near Basra Gate.
How To Infiltrate The Officer's Club
Upon reaching the Officer's Club, which is a heavily guarded compound, players will need to use Enkidu's eagle vision in order to pinpoint the exact location of the meeting, which will be on the lower level of the compound's central building. There are several ways to infiltrate the Officer's club, and some distractions are available for players who have the tokens to bribe civilians into assisting them.
The stealthy approach is much simpler, as there are several climbing routes around the compound's perimeter, with plenty of tall grass to hide among once Basim is inside. Due to the area being so heavily guarded, it may be necessary to eliminate or at least distract some guards in order to lure them from their posts. Fortunately, due to the tall grass and several small hiding tents, taking out these guards while remaining undetected should be a relatively straightforward task.
Where To Find The Meeting
In order to access the meeting itself, players will need to head toward the main door of the compound's central building. This can be quite challenging due to the patrolling guards, one of whom will be stationed directly outside the door. Using the whistle or Noisemaker tool can be a good way of luring him from the post, and it will be best to assassinate him in a hidden area since other guards are very likely to notice a direct assault.
Unlike many other special doors in the game, no key will need to be obtained, simply head up to the door and interact with it in order to proceed. Once inside, a cutscene will immediately be triggered in which Basim is able to overhear the specific details of the meeting.
Once this has been completed, players can then decide to loot an additional chest on the roof of the Officer's Club, before ziplining out of the hostile area to safety. Of course, there are several ways to approach the mission, and some players may favor a more violent approach, but in this instance, the mission can be completed w ithout raising any alarms and should be much more straightforward that way.
