To unlock the smoke bomb in Assassin's Creed Mirage, you must have previously completed the mission in which you assassinate Al-Guhl, The Slaver.

• Best Tier 1 perk: The best Tier 1 perk is the extended range. This ability allows Basim to increase by seven meters the range of the smoke bomb. This way, your smoke bomb in Assassin's Creed Mirage can affect enemies far from you.
• Best Tier 2 perk: The best Tier 2 perk is the Silent Blast. Using this perk, your enemies won't know that you detonated a smoke bomb and, therefore, won't become alert, allowing you to use stealth more effectively.
• Best Tier 3 perk: The best Tier 3 perk is the Mindwipe. Thanks to this ability, the guards will forget that they have seen Basim. This is very useful to lower the awareness levels of your enemies and, in case you are seen, their aggressiveness will be low.
