You’re tasked with finding 20 pieces of evidence to take down the Crimson Fleet. To make your hunt easier, here are the exact locations of all 20 pieces of evidence in Starfield Burden of Proof.

Where to find all 20 pieces of evidence in Starfield Burden of Proof
The 20 pieces of evidence required to complete the Burden of Proof mission in Starfield are found littered throughout the Crimson Fleet missions. Thankfully, you only need to collect 18 out of 20 to successfully complete the mission, which is crucial because some pieces of evidence are missable since they’re hidden in missions you can’t return to.
