Unveiling Assassin's Creed Mirage's Ultimate Resource Guide: A Wealth of Leather, Steel Ingots, and Components

Assassin's Creed Mirage stands out among recent franchise titles with its limited selection of crafting materials: steel ingots, leather, and components. These three items play a crucial role in upgrading weapons, armor, and tools, and accumulating sufficient amounts is essential.

The upgrade process necessitates a varying quantity of materials, ranging from a few dozen to several hundred. While these materials are relatively accessible, players who aspire to upgrade all their equipment may soon find themselves depleting their supplies. Thankfully, Assassin's Creed Mirage provides ample opportunities for players to procure more steel, leather, and components, all obtained from identical sources.

Traders

Traders are merchants in the game who can be identified by their symbol, the bag. They provide a convenient location for Basim to sell his accumulated trinkets. Dervis, once encountered in Baghdad, also functions as a trader.

Each trader offers a consistent selection of unique items, along with a variety of basic consumables and all three types of materials. If players have a surplus of funds compared to materials, they have the option to purchase up to 300 steel ingots, 300 leather, and 100 components from any trader. The price for ingots and leather is one dirham each, while components cost four dirhams each. It is worth noting that players require fewer components as they are primarily used for upgrading tools, whereas the other materials are also necessary for upgrading weapons and outfits.

Chests

In Assassin's Creed Mirage, there are three types of chests available: gear chests, equipment chests, and materials chests.

Gear chests hold weapons, outfits, and upgrade schematics for weapons and outfits.

Equipment chests are used to restock consumables such as throwing daggers and elixirs.

Materials chests contain steel ingots, leather, and components.

To distinguish materials chests, players can easily identify them as they have a distinct appearance. They are smaller than gear chests and feature round lids. In Eagle Vision, they emit a golden glow. However, it is important to note that Enkidu cannot spot them from the sky like he can with gear chests and other collectibles.

There are two types of locks on certain materials chests. The first type is a regular lock that can be opened with keys. Players can usually find these keys in the vicinity, and Enkidu can help locate them once his first upgrade is unlocked. The second type of lock requires a merchant token to open.

Opening a materials chest, with or without a lock, is considered illegal and will provoke a negative reaction from guards and witnesses. Exercise caution when attempting to open one in a public area.

Additionally, it is important to note that Basim can only open a materials chest once. Although players can acquire a significant amount of resources by finding and opening these chests, the resources cannot be replenished no matter how much time passes or if players revisit the same location.

Contracts

Every contract carries a designated reward for both its core objective and an additional bonus objective. These rewards encompass various items, upgrade schematics, favor tokens, skill points, cash, and any of the three material types. Although most contracts typically offer just one or two materials, they often provide a significant quantity of them.

Assassin's Creed Mirage is currently accessible on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
