In Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Basim has a host of assassin skills up his sleeve that enable him to clear out large groups of enemies in style and with finesse. The assortment of assassin tools also makes him more efficient in stealth situations, preventing him from blowing his cover.
However, in addition to the traditional means of taking out enemies, Basim can also use a unique ability known as Assassin’s Focus, which enables him to assassinate up to five enemies in a flash by teleporting to them. If you’re wondering how to use Assassin’s Focus in Mirage, the following guide has you covered.
Using Assassin’s Focus
When you first unlock Assassin’s Focus ability, Basim starts out with only two chunks of focus bar, allowing him to assassinate two targets at a time. However, by upgrading the skill to capacity 1 and capacity 2, you can focus assassinate up to 5 enemies at once. So, to make the most out of this ability, it’s advised to unlock the two mentioned skills.
Now, to use the Assassin Focus, follow the steps outlined below:
- First, find a group of enemies and remain undetected.
- Press R3 on your controller to engage Assassin Focus.
- Now, use the right analog stick to move the reticle on your screen to the enemies you want to take out and press R1 to tag them.
- Once you’ve tagged the desired number of enemies to take out, pressing X will automatically cause Basim to take out all tagged enemies with Assassin Focus.
Congratulations! You have successfully performed the Assassin’s Focus takedown.
Achieving The Unstoppable Trophy
If you’re playing Assassin’s Creed Mirage on your PlayStation, you’ll find a trophy tied to effectively using the Assassin’s Focus ability. The trophy requires you to take out five enemies using the ability.
To complete this achievement, you’ll need to first unlock Assassin’s Focus Capacity 1 under the Phantom skill tree, which requires investing two skill points. This will add a third focus bar chunk to your focus meter. Then, you should also unlock Assassin’s Focus Capacity 2 under the same skill tree, which costs three skill points, adding two more focus bar chunks to the focus meter, bringing your total focus bar chunks to five.
With both skills unlocked, you can take down five enemies when using the Assassin’s Focus ability. You can follow the same steps outlined in the “Using Assassin’s Focus” section to complete the challenge.
How To Effectively Use Assassin’s Focus
Unlike chain assassinations, Assassin’s Focus can be used when you’re jumping off a roof, performing a leap of faith, and even from a great range, as long as the enemies are in your line of sight. Once you have this ability unlocked and upgraded, it can make stealth situations a lot easier and more enjoyable.
You can use this ability to make Basim look stylish while taking out enemies. Along with all the other valuable items in your arsenal, including smoke bombs, chain assassination, and sleeping darts, you’ll certainly enjoy stealth in Assassin’s Creed Mirage like never before.
