How to complete Introducing Traxus in Marathon

After CyberAcme's introductory quest, you can take on the Introducing: Traxus priority contract to unlock the Traxus faction and its anti-UESC tasks and progression. Although it appears early, the quest requires completing three objectives in a single run on Dire Marsh, so it can be deceptively tricky.

Begin by hacking a small blue terminal at one of three locations on Dire Marsh: Intersection, Bio-Research, or Complex. Choose whichever spawn is closest, since the remaining objectives stay nearby. The terminal locations are: Intersection — on the second floor of the main blue building just north of the road; Bio-Research — inside the main building on the ground floor next to the doorway; Complex — on the catwalk on the southeastern side of the central yellow building marked CPLX-3.

Interacting with the terminal summons a marked UESC Commander nearby. They arrive with backup, so bring plenty of ammo and healing.
