Metro: Farrier St

Verified named entries in the immediate area

The evidence available for the station does not support treating all of these as buildings or services inside the station itself. Some are roads or neighbouring map references, while Megabuilding H10 is a separate major location.

On foot

The station is easiest to find from the surrounding Little China fast-travel network. If approaching from the south, use Megabuilding H10 as a broad landmark, then move north towards Farrier Street. If approaching from the west, Drake Avenue is a useful reference. From the north, the MedCenter and Goldsmith Street fast-travel points lead into the same general Watson street grid. These are navigation recommendations based on the map placement of the dataterms, not separate entrances to the station.

Fast travel

Once the dataterm is discovered, Metro: Farrier St appears as a normal fast-travel destination. Before Update 2.1, metro markers functioned principally as fast-travel points. Update 2.1 added the full NCART ride system, allowing V to either travel instantly or board the train and watch the journey through the carriage windows.

Riding the NCART

The station belongs to the playable NCART network under the name Farrier & Ferguson. Published metro maps place it on Line A, between Medcenter and Alexander Street. It is therefore useful for travelling between northern Watson, City Center and the southern portions of Line A.

The full metro feature requires the in-game NCART City Pass sequence to be active. According to CD PROJEKT RED’s patch notes, V receives access to the 19 stations after the relevant NCART message, with both fast travel and train rides available.

Burning Desire / Night Moves

Burning Desire, also known as Night Moves, is a Watson minor job that begins on Farrier Street. V encounters Jesse Johnson, who is in distress because of a malfunctioning Mr. Stud implant. The encounter begins when V hears Jesse calling for help on Farrier Street, north of Megabuilding H10.

Practical route

This is a street encounter rather than a station mission. If Jesse is not present, check the objective marker and revisit the street after progressing the relevant early-game content. The available evidence confirms the starting encounter and quest giver, but does not establish a universal missability deadline.

The Heisenberg Principle

The The Heisenberg Principle gig is in Little China and can be approached from Metro: Farrier St. A documented route places the gig area south-east of the station, near a building down an alley beside a coffee shop. The gig is an Agent Saboteur job and requires Street Cred 8 according to the cited guide.

Its approach section describes a Tyger Claw guard, a vending-machine distraction and an entrance leading down to a basement. Those details apply to the gig location, not to the metro station.

Practical route

Because gig markers can be hidden until their fixer requirements are met, the area may appear quiet during an earlier playthrough.

NCPD activity

Little China contains multiple NCPD Scanner Hustles and Assaults in Progress. A documented minor-activity list places one Farrier Street Assault in Progress at the Megapax Export warehouse, south-east of Konpeki Plaza, involving Maelstrom. It also lists a related Muren Street activity at the same warehouse.

This warehouse is in Little China but should not automatically be described as part of the metro station. Use the Farrier Street name as a search clue, not as proof that the event is immediately beside the station.

Legendary Anti-Puncture Neotac Pants with Composite Lining

A documented legendary clothing pickup can be reached from Metro: Farrier St. The item is found on the body of a dead NCPD officer in a doorway near Drake Avenue.

Acquisition route

The item is a fixed placement, not a random drop. The exact statistics and armour value can vary with game level and version, so the important constant is the named legendary clothing pickup and its documented placement.

Other street loot

The station’s surrounding streets contain the ordinary loot expected in Night City, including containers, shards and bodies connected to local activities. No reliable source reviewed for this guide establishes a complete, station-specific collectible list. It would therefore be unsafe to claim that the location contains a particular number of shards, tarot cards, iconic weapons or hidden gems.

Launch-era base game

At launch and in earlier versions, Metro: Farrier St was principally a fast-travel dataterm. It was also one of the stations relevant to the Frequent Flyer fast-travel discovery achievement. Historical patch notes show that CD PROJEKT RED fixed counting issues involving metro dataterms, although the cited fix concerns Metro: Memorial Park rather than Farrier St specifically.

Update 2.1 and later

Update 2.1 introduced the fully functional NCART system. The official patch notes describe:

This means the location has two distinct gameplay functions depending on version:

The station does not require Phantom Liberty. The NCART changes belong to the base game update and are available in the supported base-game versions listed by CD PROJEKT RED.
