In "Assassin's Creed Mirage," the main character, Basim, is never without his sword. He also has a reliable dagger, hidden blade, and some special gadgets to help him on his quests. Unlike recent games in the series that loaded up on RPG elements, Mirage goes back to basics, much like the original games that fans loved. This means fewer weapons but more focus on matching each weapon to different play styles.
Now, picking the right weapon for your style is crucial. Each sword has a special skill. For example, the Hidden One's sword can poison enemies, while the Rostam Sword boosts damage during continuous attacks. Mirage may not have a ton of weapons, but the ones it does have are top-notch.
Getting Swords in Assassin's Creed Mirage: You can get swords from gear chests, through the main storyline, or as prizes for finishing contracts.
