How to find Assassin's Creed Mirage secret armor and weapons using Mysterious Shards

Assassin's Creed Mirage secret armor and weapons are found and unlocked by locating Mysterious Shards and taking them to a hidden temple under the Northern Oasis.

There are 10 Assassin's Creed Mirage Mysterious Shards hidden around Baghdad and the surrounding areas, which will unlock special Gear Chests in this hidden temple. The Nehal's Calling investigation in Assassin's Creed Mirage will eventually lead you to eventually uncover a fully upgraded outfit, a sword, and a dagger. 

Here's a quick run down of the Assassin's Creed Mirage armor and weapons and the abilities that come with them:

• Milad's outfit: Forgotten Terror - Successful air assassinations set off a flash of lightning to disorient bystanders within a 15m radius
• Shamshir-e Zomorrodnegar sword: Blood Price - Maximum health is lowered by 50% but damage is increased by 50%
• The Samsaama dagger: Life steal - Every fifth hit heals Basim for 10% of his health

And here more details on each item of secret gear in this gallery:

Now, I'll explain how to find the hidden secret armor and weapons in the Northern Oasis for Nehal's Calling in Assassin's Creed Mirage, below:

How to find the secret armor in Assassin's Creed Mirage

1. Progress through the story and reunite with Nehal

You'll need to reunite with Nehal before you can get anywhere near the Assassin's Creed Mirage secret armor and weapons. A mission to go find her back in Anbar will pop up after you spot her during the First Order mission where you're ordered to kill Al-Ghul. 

During this mission she'll show you an unusual symbol she's been seeing since the palace incident. After this, you'll be able to start collecting mysterious shards with the same symbol. She also mentions an oasis to the north of Aqarquf Dunes. This is actually where the secret armor and weapons are located, but it's best if you gather the shards first, before you head off looking for it.

2. Gather all the mysterious shards

There are 10 mysterious shards in total, scattered across Baghdad. Handily they're marked on the map, and on your mini-map, with a gold symbol (the guide I linked to above can help you find them all). They're all held by well-guarded people dressed in black, so they're quite easy to spot, and having some of the best Assassin's Creed Mirage Skills will help you find and assassinate them with least amount of fuss.

3. Head to the Northern Oasis, east of Anbar

Once you've got all 10 mysterious shards, you can head to the Northern Oasis highlighted here on the map. It's directly to the east of the viewpoint in Anbar, where Nehal and Basim used to live.

4. Dive to the bottom of the oasis lake and through the passageway at the bottom

When you arrive, head straight into the water at the oasis. At the bottom there's a small opening you can swim through. When you go through you'll start to see some Isu architecture, which is a dead giveaway you've found something cool. 

5. Use your shards to unlock the armor, sword, and dagger from behind forcefields

Inside the chamber itself, you'll see three alcoves blocked by forcefields with small pedestals in front of them. It's here you'll be able to deposit the Mysterious Shards you've gathered, to unlock each of the secret items - the armor outfit costs five shards, the sword costs three, and the dagger costs two shards. 

As well as Mysterious Shards, there are plenty of other collectibles and goodies to look out for in and around Baghdad, such as the Assassin's Creed Mirage Left Behind Enigma and the Bazaar Gear Chest.
