Head to the Pharmacy of Haylanah

Make your way to the Pharmacy of Haylanah located in the southwestern part of Baghdad in Abbasiyah.

The restricted area has several patrolling guards, so we recommend wearing the Rostam Outfit to minimize the noise Basim makes when moving.

How to Get the Rostam Outfit

Assassinate the Guards

It's easier to find the medical sampels if you assassinate the guards patrolling the area. Make sure to hide within flower beds and use tools like Throwing Knives or the Blowdart to take out the guards without getting seen.

Look for Pots Marked with an X

There are 3 medical samples you need to collect, which you can find within pots marked with an X. You can find these near the central garden, on the northwestern side of the Pharmacy, and within a building on the western side of the area.

We recommend using Eagle Vision to find the pots, which will glow orange when highlighted.

How to Use Eagle Vision

Avoid Opening Unmarked Pots

AC Mirage - Avoid Opening Unmarked Pots
Avoid opening unmarked pots which will spew poison that will quickly deplete Basim's health and kill him. Only open pots that are marked with an X.

Deliver the Samples to Abu Jafar's Stash

AC Mirage - Deliver the Samples to Abu Jafar
After obtain all 3 medical samples, leave the pharmacy making sure to avoid any remaining guards so you don't fail the optional contractor request.

Once you leave the restricted area, follow the quest marker and hide the medical samples in Abu Jafar's stash to complete the contract mission.
