How To Solve A Holy Hoard Enigma in Assassin's Creed Mirage

Skip To...

Despite the story of Assassin’s Creed Mirage, obtaining unique accessories and cosmetic dyes for your equipment often requires solving puzzles known as Enigma. You can find them all over ancient Baghdad, and A Holy Hoard Enigma is one of them. A rough map sketch hidden in one of the houses on the border of the ring city will lead you to a unique dye buried under a tree near the Tigris River. Matching a scrap of paper to the actual AC Mirage map gives clues to the solution to A Holy Hoard, but if you fail at any stage of Enigma, we’ll try to help you.

As we said, A Holy Hoard Enigma begins with a small scroll hidden in one of the unremarkable houses of Baghdad. The fact is that until you receive this map sketch, you will not be able to receive a reward even if you know the exact location of the cache; it won’t spawn. Luckily, you can find A Holy Hoard Enigma at the very beginning of AC Mirage in the Harbiyah area:

Like we said, go to Harbiyah.
Take Khurasan Gate Guardhouse as your starting point and walk just a short distance to the northeast.
On one of the wide streets, you will see the entrance to an unremarkable building. The map in the image above will help you.
Enter the building and pick up the A Holy Hoard Enigma on the stone stand in the decorative arch on the wall of the first floor.

Once you have the riddle, you should look at the map. Perhaps knowing the starting area will allow you to determine the location of Tan Abbasid Knight dye without our help:

To begin, open the Character Menu and go to Inventory.
Scroll down the Quest Items tab to the Enigmas section.
Select A Holy Hoard Enigma and open the map.

Speaking of solving A Holy Hoard Enigma, you won’t have to solve any riddles. As we said earlier, you only need to match the sketch with your in-game map and find the secret location of the cache with the reward. A large tree on the bank of a large river can be an obvious clue. But if you want specific answers, here’s how to get to the final reward:

Using your current location as a starting point, head northeast to the easternmost part of the coast of Zubaydiyah district.
Once you reach the Nestorian Monastery, go east to the coast.
Soon, you will see a large tree with a couple of old boats under its crown.
Find the pile of dirt between the boats and collect Tan Abbasid Knight Dye as your reward for solving this Enigma.

Well, it was a pretty quick trip. But to summarize, here are all the steps you have to go through:

Start A Holy Hoard Enigma by finding a piece of a map in the house next to the Khurasan Gate Guardhouse.
Go northeast to the coast of Zubaydiyah district.
Collect your reward under the large tree crown next to the old boats.
