How to Master Pickpocketing in Assa*sin’s Creed Mirage
Hey there, fellow gamer! Ready to become a stealthy pickpocket in Assa*sin’s Creed Mirage? Whether you’re after some extra cash, special quest items, or those elusive Dervis Artifacts, I’m here to give you the scoop on becoming a sneaky success. Let’s dive into the world of silent thievery, shall we?
Stepping into the Shoes of a Master Thief
First things first: you’ve got to be sneaky. Like, really sneaky. Creep up behind your target like a cat, but stay cool. Getting spotted by guards is a no-no, but hey, those clueless civilians? Fair game. Just keep it smooth and low-key.
Here comes the tricky part. As you get close, a big red sign (more like a warning prompt) pops up. If you’re playing on PC, get ready to hit that “E” key. It’s showtime!
Next up, you’ve got a nerve-wracking quick-time event (QTE). A diamond shape pops up on the screen, and you’ve got to hit the button again at just the right moment. Nail it, and you’re golden; miss it, and well… better luck next time, pal.
Have you snagged the goods? Time to make a quick exit. Lay low until the heat dies down, or those guards will be all over you. If things get sticky, check out our other guides for losing notoriety on the down-low.
Why Eagle Vision is Your Best Pal
Alright, here’s a pro tip: use your eagle vision. This nifty trick lights up targets like a Christmas tree, showing you who’s got the goods. Just look for the golden glow. Easy, right?
Be a Ghost, Not a Killer
Now, let’s talk strategy. Pickpocketing is like being a ghost. No messy fights, no bodies, and no fuss. It’s perfect for sneaking into high-security spots without turning it into a murder scene.
Get Your Timing Down, Pat
Timing is everything, buddy. Civilians are easy pickings, but guards? Not so much. Get ready for those QTEs to test your reflexes. Stay sharp, and keep your eyes on the prize.
Level Up Your Thieving Skills
Want to be the best? Grab the Pickpocket Master skill. It’s a bit of a spend, costing four skill points, but it makes nabbing loot a piece of cake. Seriously, it’s worth every point.
Oops… Caught Red-Handed?
Here’s a heads-up: getting caught sucks. You’ll have guards on you faster than you can say, “It wasn’t me!” And those civilians? They’ll scream their heads off. If things go south, blend into the crowd and walk away. No harm, no foul.
What’s in It for You?
Pickpocketing isn’t just for the thrill. You can snag some sweet Merchant or Scholar Tokens, not to mention a hefty pile of coins. Who doesn’t like a little extra spending money?
Make the Game Play Your Way
Not a fan of stressful QTEs? No problem. Assa*sin’s Creed Mirage lets you turn them off. Just flip on “Guaranteed Pickpocket,” and enjoy a chill, streamlined gaming experience. So, what are you waiting for? Get out there and show them what you’re made of!
