Ping Vs trace

Hey guys, It just turned Monday here and it's been better.

As the topic says, when I ping a gateway from the peered device, there is no loss, even with 15k packets. But, when I trace to any destination, I am seeing strange loss figures on the same gateway device.

The device in question is a Cisco L3 (though I see the same with anything else). Now I'm sure there is a simple logical explanation for it and an easy fix too.

Now when I ping the hop after the gateway with 15k packet size, there is no loss, yet MTR or trace shows loss. Clients are going a little nuts over it and though there are no other complaints from those clients, the loss at the hops are bumming me out

No proxy-arp No IP unreachable No IP redirected 

Those at on the gw interface/svi (if it helps).

Thanks.
