In Arc Raiders, the “With a Trace” mission sends players to explore the Barren Clearing on the Blue Gate Map. Assigned by Shani, this task requires uncovering details about the fate of ARC machines in the region. Follow this walkthrough to accomplish all mission objectives.

Mission Objectives Walkthrough

Initiated following conversations with Shani after completing earlier tasks, this mission centers around Blue Gate’s western sector. Travel to the Barren Clearing marked on your map to examine destroyed mechanized units.

Upon arrival, locate a distinctive metallic orb emitting golden light amidst the mechanical debris. Scanning high ground with optical tools may aid detection. This artifact provides critical data for mission progression.

Subsequent instructions direct explorers to the Adorned Wreckage south of the initial site. Navigate to coordinates below Trapper’s Glade where environmental scans automatically update mission parameters.

Concluding this phase requires activating a bright yellow control panel beneath the tallest ruin. Successful interaction completes field objectives, enabling return to Speranza for debriefing.

Completion Benefits

Completing these tasks earns you a Looting Mk. 2 augmentation and a Medium Shield. The augmentation enhances loot collection by automatically removing Ticks after one second and expands Trinket capacity to three slots. Alternatively, it can be sold for 2000 Raider Tokens.

The tactical shield offers substantial ballistics protection with minimal mobility impact, making it valuable for extended engagements. Both rewards significantly improve operational effectiveness in subsequent missions.
