WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Run the Dogtown airdrop collection loop

Across Dogtown, following an incoming aircraft cue, red smoke, and the cache’s alarm or beeping.

Before you go

Farming steps

  1. Remain in Dogtown while traveling between jobs or exploration points and listen for the incoming aircraft cue.
  2. Search the nearby skyline and streets for red smoke, then move toward the signal.
  3. Follow the cache’s alarm or beeping as you get closer to pinpoint its location.
  4. Assess the guard group and use cover to defeat or bypass the Barghest defenders.
  5. Open the cache and complete its Breach Protocol interaction if required.
  6. Loot the cache and then inspect the defeated enemies for additional equipment or supplies.
  7. Review the haul, keeping useful gear and selling or dismantling surplus items for eddies or components.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeatable whenever later airdrop opportunities appear in Dogtown. Individual caches are finite encounters and their randomized contents are not guaranteed.

Common mistakes

  • Searching Night City for the event: airdrops are a Dogtown feature.
  • Assuming every cache contains an Iconic: randomized supplies and ordinary gear are also possible.
  • Leaving after combat without opening the cache: claim its contents before traveling away.

When to stop or switch

Stop when the current cache is secured or inventory is full; continue on a later Dogtown pass if you still need supplies.
