With a Trace is one of many storyline quests that you can complete in the Blue Gate region of ARC Raiders, and it's a rather hard one to complete.
The gist of the quest involves you finding specific locations on the Blue Gate map. The exact locations, however, aren't displayed. That's where this guide comes in.

ARC Raiders With a Trace quest walkthrough
The With a Trace quest can be broken down into two parts.
- Reach the Barren Clearing.
- Find out who brought down the ARC machines.
Reach the Barren Clearing
The Barren Clearing is located towards the western part of the Blue Gate map. I have marked the location on the screenshot below for your convenience. Go south from the marked location, and you'll come across a gigantic ARC's debris to investigate.

The area has plenty of ARC enemies, including Snitches and Hornets. If you have Energy weapons, you shouldn't have trouble taking down these enemies. Infact, you should clear the area first before proceeding with your investigation. Doing so will also allow you to loot the fallen enemies for extra loot items.
Once done, you'll now have to reach the following marked location.
Find the Adorned Wreckage
The next part of the quest involves investigating the remains of a gigantic ARC wreckage. You'll need to travel to the southern part of Blue Gate, and I have marked the location in the screenshot below. You'll find a gigantic ARC at this location.

Go close to the ARC, and it will complete the investigation. Your quest will update to finding the communication device. The communication device is basically a computer on a table around the ARC's debris, and it will be highlighted by a quest marker. Stand close to the spot, and the quest will automatically update and end, rewarding you with loot and XP.
