How to unlock the Eagle's Eye achievement in Assassin's Creed Mirage - Definitive Guide

Throwing Knives are unlocked by completing the Hidden Ones initiation and can be restocked by looting from chests, buying from merchants or sometimes finding them in the environment eg on a table.

Hold cn_RT to bring up the equipment wheel and use cn_RS to select throwing knives. When you find a guard, hold cn_LT to aim and press cn_RT to throw.

I recommend aiming for the head as it does increased damage and will often instant kill the guards. You will want to attempt this achievement on 4 of the 8 enemy types. These are Archer, Spearman, Swordsman and Marksman. Any other enemy will not by killed instantly and will likely become a headache either by being alerted or initiating difficult combat. This also links to another achievement “Headhunter” where you must headshot 20 guards with throwing knives, allowing you to kill two birds with one stone.

I recommend getting the skill where you throw a throwing knife at a nearby enemy when you assassinate an enemy. I got half my kills with that skill.

Also recommend the knife tool perk to get your knives back after throwing!

Very early on in the prologue, in a quest called, “A New Beginning,” Basim will be learning the ways of the Hidden Ones, on his quest to become an assassin. Part of that is learning how to throw knives, and as a result, Basim will earn his first tool: the throwing knife.

Now, in order to unlock this, you basically need to select the throwing knife with rt.png, and then aim the throwing knife with lt.png, and then throw the knife into someone’s skull with rt.png. I mean, it doesn’t have to be the skull, but you do need 20 knife headshots to unlock the Headhunter (20G) achievement, so you may as well go for both at once.

Once you’ve killed 75 guards, this achievement will unlock. If you’re looking to make things easier and quicker, because you don’t really use knives a lot, there are three key skills to make this a walk in the park:
 
  • Chain Assassination - The Chain assassination Skill is the third skill you can unlock in the Phantom skill tree, and costs 3 Skill Points to unlock. The reason this is great is because you can kill an enemy with an assassination, and then - provided you have knives on you - throw a knife at a nearby guard for an insta throwing knife kill
  • Knife Recovery - While the Knife Recovery skill from the Trickster tree won’t help up your kill count with the knives, it will mean you won’t need to refill your knives as often, which is just as good. This one also costs 3 Skill Points and is the third skill you can unlock in this tree
  • Emergency Aim - And finally, the Emergency Aim skill, which allows you to hit lt.png to snap to a guard who’s about to detect you, allowing you to throw a knife at him for an insta kill. This one is just as valuable as the Chain Assassination skill, and also costs 3 Skill Points, but this time is the 4th skill you can unlock in the Predator skill tree
Get all three of those perks and you’ll unlock this in no time whatsoever.

A small clarification. If you look at the throwing knife kill statistics in Ubosoft Connect, it shows the overall kill statistics. That is, if you, for example, killed a snake, a jaguar or some other wild (or non-wild) animal with a throwing knife, its kill with a throwing knife will also be counted in these statistics.
