Marathon’s ‘Introducing: Traxus’ Explained: Three Objectives in One Dire Marsh Run

Server Slam testing highlights a Shipping Manifest drop bug that can block completion, requiring a new match.

Overview

  • Completing the priority contract unlocks access to the Traxus faction.
  • Players must hack a terminal at Intersection, Complex, or Bio-Research, defeat the spawned UESC Commander to obtain the Shipping Manifest, and then scan the nearby stacked container.
  • All tasks must be finished in a single Dire Marsh match, and picking up the manifest starts a three‑minute timer for the final scan.
  • Guides note the encounter is difficult, especially solo, because the elite Commander fight occurs in a high‑traffic area with reinforcements.
  • Reports from the Server Slam describe cases where the manifest does not drop after the kill, which forces a full restart; extraction is not required once the scan is done.
