Key deets

⚡ Head to the northern tracks in north Pendola Pass.

⚡ Follow them south to Almatera Station.

⚡ Keep your eyes peeled for a Bully and Skulker to ping along the way.

The Tracks of the Beast quest in Arc Raiders involves travelling along some train tracks and pinging the new Pendola Pass enemies, the Bully and the Skulker.

First off, head to the northern tracks area in the north of the new map—this area encompasses the entire north, so it's easy to complete. After that, head to Almaterra Station to the south, preferably following the train tracks, since there are often Bully and Skulker enemies in this area for the next step.

Ping a Bully

The challenging part of Tracks of the Beast is you have to do all of the steps in a single round. The Bully is the first enemy you have to ping and it's kind of like a big arc horse-dog robot:

There's usually a Bully in Old Town in the southwest of the map.
I've also encountered one on the tracks north of Almatera Station.
Also at the Railroad Junction to the east.

Ping a Skulker

The harder enemy to track down is the appropriately named Skulker, a little turret on four wheels that rolls around and emits a beep beep noise:

I've found a lot of Skulkers in the ravine between the Railyard and the Commissary Supermarket.
I've also encountered them by the Gondola exfil north of Old Town.
Or in the northern tracks area north of Almatera Station.

There are plenty around the map, they're just quite sneaky and small, so you have to keep an eye out and listen for the beep beep. They're also hard to damage before they've deployed their turret, though a heavy ammo weapon can still kill them.

Once you've pinged both and completed the other steps, you're all done. You could attempt the optional steps to destroy three Skulkers and extract a Skulker Targeter, but frankly, it's hard enough to find one, so I wouldn't worry about that just yet.
