How to unlock the You Snooze, You Lose achievement in Assassin's Creed Mirage - Definitive Guide

The way to do this is to use a blowdart on one of the people with the mysterious shards.

Edit: Alternately any guard with a key will do, credit to J3K

Wouldn't this be missable there is a finite number of guards with keys?

I needed a new game to get this one.

Took me around 2h from start, to the moment I got an opportunity to get a shard (having unlocked the sleep dart in the process)

I don't know if finding another guard with a key would have taken longer but I didn't want to try my luck

I came in to post about the shards or keys, but I see you already did that. +1

Edit: Also, I don't think this is entirely missable because I've looted random stuff off guards I killed. It's not very often though.

I can confirm you can't pickpocket a basic guard (not carrying a shard or key). I just tried it and couldn't pickpocket any guards, so I assassinated one and picked up what he was carrying automatically.

This does not work, I tried multiple times. Also, your video does not show the achievement unlock.

Edit 10 mins later: tried again a few times, and now it did work.

This seems missable. I have completed all contracts and all shards. I cannot find a guard to pickpocket.

This bugged for me in a way. I pickpocketed a key from a sleeping guard, but the achievement never popped. However, it popped as soon as I pickpocketed the next civilian I saw.

Yes, I had finished the game and collected all the shards before noticing this achievement. I found a guard where you collect one of the books at the southern end of the city. The place is called Tuesday Market next to the Pomegranate Gate. The guard was walking around by himself. Hopefully this helps someone else out.

For anyone like me who completed the story and all areas, and thought they had to start a new game, I was able to find a guard with a key at the Harbor Camp. It unlocked a door leading to a tool supply chest. If you follow a direct line East from the Round City Center you’ll end up on the shore of Sharqiyah in Karkh. Check the Harbor Camp house and if you’re lucky like me you didn’t loot it just yet. Enkidu can help you locate the guard with the key. Good luck.

Another spawn point outside of missions or after you completed the game is on the rooftop of the bazaar. There is a locked chest there and a guard that has the key for it quite close to the chest.

Look for some scaffolding near the main entrance of the bazaar to get onto the roof

If anyone (like me) decided to start chasing achievements right after completing the main story, if you have a quick- or autosave from the palace assassination you can sort this one on the guard in the foyer of the palace.

I also left it until later in the game, but if you haven't completed The Trade Delegate contract, you can pick pocket a rusty key from a guard.

I had “guaranteed pickpocket” turned on. This achievement would not unlock for me. I tried several times. So I turned off guaranteed pickpocket and completed “The Trade Delegate” contract. Achievement popped immediately.

The Guaranteed pickpocket option is located in Option tab. Then select the gameplay tab. Scroll down to combat and stealth. It’s listed there.

Previous save file for the win! I was post-game and no guards with keys or shard-folk to pickpocket. So, I went to a previous save and there were still shards to collect. Easier than the 90min+ it can take to find a shard in NG.

Ok I'll try test it out and see if it is in fact missable and if so will put in a flag. I feel like there must be keys to take even post story.

The Tuesday market one worked for me. Definitely one of the locations you may have a guard with a key leftover from the main quest and the contracts.

In NG+ I skipped the prologue went straight to the first hideout, skipped all the dialogue with Roshan and took the find Beshi quest. Found him and it unlocks the Upper Harbor event that has a guard with a key. Darted and stole it - whole thing took like 15 minutes max.

Heads up; if you plan to NG+ make sure you swap to sleep darts before starting NG+. I got to the docks and still had berserker darts and needed to reload my main save to swap to sleep darts and go through the intro until reaching Beshi again.

I got this off a guard after I obtained the blowdart. I can really only see this as missable due to if you have literally done every shard, story based ''need a key'', and scoured all areas for all chests before seeing this is an achievement.

In my earlier days of achievement hunting I would probably have done just that, and been stuck. Now I usually browse achievements here specifically looking at missable achievements. So, I'm glad you marked it as missable, or I would not of even looked until I had done all the things already. Plus side for this game is you can start a new game+ and go for it again, so it is technically not missable.

Good guide OP and J3K for the pointer of any guard with a key. The achievement actually states a guard, so figuring out the shard thing is great, and figuring out it has to be a guard with a key is tops!

This can be achieved during the contract mission The Bronze Mirror Heist.

*Fast travel to the Abbasiyah Bureau.
*Travel southeast across the waterway. There's a short zipline across and on the water a floating wooden pallet.
*Climb up the wall directly in front that has a small fountain painted blue.
*Cross the top of vine tresses and walk across the rope on the left.
*Climb up the wall, waiting for the guard to walk away.
*Cross the path straight forward climbing up the building next to the toolbox.
*Walk forward to towards the rope on the left.
*Wait for the guard with the key to walk over and sit down on the bench below.
*Dart the guard to make them sleep. The guard will stay sitting slumped on the bench (having the permanent sleep upgrade equipped is handy to keep the guard stationary).
*Drop down from rope, sneak into nearby short bushes behind guard.
*Pickpocket key. Achievement unlocked.

NOW with new game + if you missed it first time around make sure your original game has blowdarts.
Save it, go to the main menu and select new game + it will ask you to select a save to save over, select the one you have blowdarts in. You will get an option to skip to Bahgdad, do this. Then follow the first mission. There is a guard with a key on the boat dock. Blowdart him and loot whilst he is asleep.

There are two introductory missions after reaching Baghdad, so please add that this is the Beshi mission. The guard with the key is on the docks near where you meet Beshi.

Great guide! This was the last achievement I needed.

This achievent is missable, if you happen to collect all the shards and keys in the game without using the blowdart.

Progress the main story until your first assassination, then report to Roshan at the Harbiyah Bureau.
At this point you will get the chance to unlock a tool. Choose the Blowdart, else you will have to progress your Trickster skill tree to unlock more tools. No need to upgrade the dart just make sure you didn't modify it to poison darts.
Next step is to find a person with a shard or a key. Shards found on order members walking around in the city, and keys are on guards usually close.
Select the Blowdart by holding cn_RT, then aim with cn_LT and shoot with cn_RT.
Pickpocket your target before they awake to unlock your achievement.

First, make sure you have the Blowdart tool unlocked first.

Second, either find a guard with an orange key icon above their heads during a story mission (Like The Fiery Trail story mission) or a person dressed in black and carrying a Mysterious Shard. You would see them being escorted by two guards and they would casually walk together or stop at certain spots for a long period of time.

Third, in either scenario, knock either one out with a Blowdart tool, make sure they’re asleep, then either crouch or stand over them, hit cn_T to pickpocket them for the trophy to unlock. Quite simple, really!

PS: As a heads-up, I’m told by others that this trophy can be missable, so make sure you do a manual save first before trying it. Otherwise, you will miss out on it and will need to start over.

Have fun and good luck!

You'll need to unlock the Blowdart Tool and fully upgrade it to unlock Deep Slumber. Now, find a guard carrying a key item or mysterious shard and use the blowdart to put them to sleep. Then, sneak up and pickpocket them while they sleep.

First things first, you’ll need to unlock the blowdart first, which you can do either:
 
  • During the “Branching Out” main quest - as a freebie
  • Or using skill points and spending them on the Extra Tool Capacity skills (in the Trickster skill tree), and then visiting one of the brothers at the Hidden Ones Bureau to unlock it
The next thing you need to do is find a guard with something to pickpocket, which doesn’t happen all too often. When it does happen regularly though, is when you’re in an enemy encampment and you need a key to open a door or a chest.

The perfect contract for this is ‘The State Official’ contract, as you’ll need a key from the guard to free the prisoners (which is the optional objective). However, you may need an upgrade to make this work, namely the “Cloud Impact” tier 2 skill for the blowdart, which “applies the Blowdart’s current effect as an area of effect.”

Now, the reason this is important, is because the guard with the key will be armoured, meaning he’s immune to the dart itself. However, if you shoot at his feet, he’ll feel the effects of the blowdart’s cloud effect and fall asleep.

Once he’s down, nip in, pickpocket the key with button-y.png and then boom, this achievement will be all yours.

You need to put to sleep with a dart the enemy who has the key or the member of the order with the fragment, and then just go up and take the item.

Region: Karkh;
Location: Northwestern part of the port camp.
There's a guard wandering around here with a key who, by a lucky chance, goes outside the restricted area to rummage through some box. Putting him to sleep and taking the key from him here is as easy as pie.

The trophy is missable! I cleared the map 100%, went through the story and found that all the guards with keys and cultists with shards were gone, I didn't use darts at all. Now I started a new game because of this one trophy. I advise you to get this trophy right after getting darts, so as not to go through everything from the beginning.

If you cleared almost everything, but did not complete all the contracts, then you can get this trophy in the "Delegate of Traders". There is just such a guard there.
