Armored Core 6 features numerous types of collectibles, such as Combat Logs, for you to reap rewards or simply tick off achievements. They are tied to the Loghunt Program and are more collectibles for you to find in Armored Core 6. They can only be found on certain enemies during missions, which is why knowing their locations beforehand makes your search so much easier.
These include Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum in order, and their rarity affects how much rank you increase. They are responsible for ranking up your Hunter Class and rewarding you with necessary mech parts as well.
If you are looking to make your missions more challenging, consider hunting for all the Combat Log locations.
