Converging Paths is another major project in ARC Raiders, challenging players to meet the requirements of a set of stages. These challenges include defeating ARC enemies in specific locations and collecting a certain number of Trinkets.

Converging Paths can be a tricky project to complete if you aren’t entirely sure where to go or where to look to find the Trinkets. There are some very useful rewards you can earn by completing this project in ARC Raiders, so I highly recommend following this guide.
