Where are the Assassin's Creed Mirage Mysterious Shards? These rare collectibles are carried by elite of the Order and are a key component of 'The Calling' mission. They can be used to claim some of the best equipment in Ubisoft's stealth game, though collecting them all involves tracking them down across Baghdad and beyond.

AC Mirage Mysterious Shards locations
AC Mirage Mysterious Shards are carried by the Tha'abeen that patrol the major areas of Baghdad. There are ten Mysterious Shards in total, and their exact positions can be located by using Enkidu. We've included their locations on the maps below
Baghdad
Eight AC Mirage Mysterious Shards can be located within Baghdad itself. There are two in Harbiyah, two in Abbasiyah, and two in Karkh.
Wilderness
The two remaining AC Mirage Mysterious Shards can be found in the Wilderness – one in the north on the outskirts of Anbar, and one in the south on the outskirts of Jarjaraya.
You can retrieve the AC Mirage Mysterious Shards either by pickpocketing or assassinating your target. The Tha'abeen tend to patrol out in the open with a retinue of guards, so it's highly likely you'll need to reduce your Assassin's Creed Mirage notoriety after you dispatch them and collect the Mysterious Shard.
AC Mirage mysterious shards rewards
AC Mirage Mysterious Shards can be inserted into three plinths, which unlock some of the best outfits in the action-adventure game. Each requires a different number of shards before it unlocks its corresponding reward, so you might wish to save up your shards to claim a particular reward earlier than usual.
