Trace — common questions

Is Trace still obtainable?

Obtainable now — this camo has no removal date and can still be unlocked.

What's the fastest way to unlock Trace?

Sprint straight into engagements and fire inside the window for the sprinting variants — an aggressive entry rhythm tags those kills without thinking about it. For the no-damage entries, pick off enemies already weakened or busy fighting someone else; clean third-party kills are the safest way to keep your health bar untouched.
