WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Clear Assault in Progress caches
Blue NCPD Scanner Hustle markers across Night City, especially Assault in Progress events.
Before you go
- Open the map and locate a blue NCPD Scanner Hustle marker.
- Bring a combat loadout appropriate for the marked encounter.
- Make inventory space for weapons and crafting materials.
Farming steps
- Set the map view to show NCPD Scanner Hustles and select an Assault in Progress marker.
- Travel to the marker and identify the hostile group and nearby cover.
- Defeat the enemies while staying alert for any remaining threats around the objective area.
- Search the immediate area for the marked container, bag, or body required to complete the hustle.
- Collect the objective loot and any useful equipment from the encounter.
- Confirm the hustle is complete in the map or journal, then choose another uncompleted nearby marker.
- Review the collected gear and sell or dismantle surplus items to turn the run into usable value or components.
- The valuable pickup is often the objective container or body, so search the encounter area before leaving.
- Equipment quality can vary; collect what fits your inventory and crafting goal.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat across uncompleted Scanner Hustles. Each Assault in Progress marker is a finite local event, not an endlessly respawning cache.
Common mistakes
- Leaving after combat without checking the objective pickup: search for the container or bag that closes the event.
- Confusing random equipment with guaranteed loot: the specific item and quality can vary.
- Returning to a cleared marker expecting a fresh event: move to another uncompleted hustle.
When to stop or switch
Stop once nearby markers are cleared or you have enough loot and components for your current goal.
