How to Get the The Four Markets Gear Chest - Assassin's Creed Mirage

By
Jarrod Garripoli

You will find many different chests in Assassin’s Creed Mirage, most of which are the normal ones that give you resources. One of the main collectibles, though, is something called Gear Chests. These will give you either a new weapon or outfit for Basim to equip. Some of the Gear Chests require a little bit of a puzzle in order to reach them, such as the one in The Four Markets area, in the Abbasiyah region. The reason this chest might prove troublesome is because the key needed for it isn’t in the immediate area.

This Gear Chest will require you to do a little puzzle in order to get to it.

Where to Find the Key for the Gear Chest in The Four Markets

Before doing anything, you will first need to find the Gear Chest. It will be located inside a building in the southwestern corner of The Four Markets area, in the Abbasiyah region. It’ll be in the building right before the bridge that brings you over to the Scriptorium location. Upon finding the building with the chest, you will notice it’s the usual kind with barred doors and windows. On the ground level of one side of the building, you will notice a breakable wall, although there doesn’t seem to be any explosive pots that you can use.

Activate your Eagle Vision and you should see some explosive pots inside one portion of the building. However, the door leading to that is locked, which means you need to find the key for it. You may be thinking that the key is on someone in the immediate area, but it’s not. The key is actually being held by a normal NPC on the northern end of The Four Markets. If you look at your map, find the actual marker for The Four Markets, then locate the two taller buildings just north of them. Note that there is another NPC on the streets with a key icon, but this seems to be just a decoy, so you can ignore that person.

(1 of 5) The location of this Gear Chest on the map.

The NPC with the correct key is inside the building, so look up while surveying the area. Climb into the building through a window and pickpocket the key, then return to the Gear Chest. The door requiring the key is immediately east of the Gear Chest icon, so unlock it and go inside. Unbar the other door here, then pick up the smaller explosive pot, carrying it outside, through the unbarred door. Go around the corner to find the breakable wall, so toss the pot at it to bust it down. This might attract the attention of some nearby enemies, so just hide and wait until they go away.

Once you’re inside the building with the Gear Chest, look around for a way to get to the second floor, only to find no unobstructed path. There is, however, a breakable ceiling here, which you can destroy in one of two ways. One method is to return to the small pot you used previously to get a second one. The other way is to look for the awning on the outside of the building, which will have a window with some openings on it. Activate Eagle Vision to spot some big explosive pots inside, which you can hit with a Throwing Knife.

(1 of 5) Open the locked door and grab the explosive jar.

However you do it, return to the room with the breakable ceiling (now gone) and look on the side for a shelf. Move the shelf over to the hole and climb up to the second floor. You will now be able to open the Gear Chest, which will either get you the Zanj Uprising Dagger or one of its upgrade schematics.
