Out of the Shadows is one of those rarer quests in ARC Raiders that looks easy to complete, but it's also one of the hardest ones.
Infact, the quest doesn't have a particular location where you need to reach (but there's a specific spot on the map that will increase your chances of success) and then destroy a Rocketeer. In case you're unaware, Rocketeers are the most dangerous drone ARCs you can come across in ARC Raiders.
Let's look at how you can complete the Out of the Shadows quest in ARC Raiders.

ARC Raiders Out of the Shadows quest walkthrough
The Out of the Shadows quest can be broken down into two major parts.
As I said earlier, there's no specific location for completing the quest. However, you'll want to reach the Testing and Annex building. Take the main stairs and go up to the top floor. You'll meet a few ARC enemies along the way, and the building also has a few Turrets to destroy. I have marked the location of the building on the map.
The top floor of the Testing and Annex building has a few unique advantages. You can find a Rocketeer in almost any spot on a map, but the location I have mentioned changes the fight in your favor. For starters, the top floor is like a bunker whose large parts are sealed off.
There are two openings on the corners, and it takes a lot of time for the Rocketeer to relocate. You can easily hit it from one side, force it to come towards you, and then go inside. If you're in the sealed area, you're safe from its rockets. Peek from the other corner opening, use the ledge, and hit the Rocketeer to repeat the process.
While the Rocketeer can fly inside the top floor, it refuses to do so. I am unsure of the reason, but glad it doesn't. If you're caught in the open parts of the top floor, you can still get hit with rockets. Hence, always be in the covered area (the rockets can't break through the barriers even if the Rocketeer manages to lock onto you).
Taking down the Rocketeer
So we know how to stay safe from the Rocketeer. However, you'll have to destroy it and successfully loot its Driver to complete the quest.
The easiest way to defeat a Rocketeer is to hit its thrusters. Use single-shot rifles (anything you will use for sniping) that use heavy rifle ammunition. Using automatic weapons doesn't make much sense since you won't be able to keep firing at a Rocketeer consistently. It's better to use a rifle, but make sure to make every hit count.
Target the thrusters on one side. Once you destroy the thrusters on one side, the Rocketeer will be disbalanced. It will become harder for it to aim at you and fire its rockets. You can also throw an EMP grenade at it to disable its flight. It becomes easier to hit the Rocketeer, but be careful when you're aiming the grenade.
Once the Rocketeer is destroyed, you have to loot the Driver and extract safely with the item. Speak with Shani, and you'll complete Out of the Shadows.

EA Sports has announced a server maintenance for FC 26 on Nov. 7, and it will take down the servers for quite a significant amount of time.
This is the first major server maintenance we have had this year. The exact purpose of the maintenance hasn't been mentioned, but it appears to be routine in nature. The developers have already announced a timeline for the server downtime, which includes information on when they will go down and when the online services will be restored.
FC 26 server maintenance countdown (Nov. 7): Start and end times
The server maintenance will begin at 11pm PT (Nov. 6)/1am CT/2am ET/7am UTC on Nov. 7. The actual downtime begins 30 minutes before the times mentioned here. Matchmaking will be disabled, and you won't be able to start a fresh match.
This countdown will help you keep track of when the servers are back once again.
According to EA Sports, the servers will be down for approximately seven hours. The countdown is based on the following timings. Once it expires, you should expect to enjoy normal matchmaking once again in FC 26.
There's always a chance for EA Sports to extend the maintenance beyond routine hours. We will update the information if something like that happens.
While the maintenance is live, the servers will be unoperational. All modes that utilize online matchmaking and require internet connectivity will be out of order. This includes the popular Ultimate Team mode, which requires a persistent internet connection to play. Even if you manage to log in, attempting to create a match will result in an error.
You can try out offline modes like Manager Career, which don't require any active internet connection. Offline modes won't have any problem, and you can also complete objectives to earn SP to fast-track your Season 2 progression.
