Cyberpunk 2077 Iconic Weapons Locations: All 116 Iconics (2.5)

This is my Cyberpunk 2077 Iconic Weapons Locations guide for Patch 2.5. It covers all 116 iconic weapons in one place: the base game, Phantom Liberty and the new Patch 2.5 iconics like King’s Coronation and the Witcher sword Sihil. For every iconic I show where it is, how to get it, and whether you can miss it. Some players call these unique weapons or legendary weapons, and the full list below works as an iconic weapons checklist too.

Most iconic weapons are tied to a quest, and quite a few are missable. Check the missable list before you start the main story.

You can find all my builds here on the Cyberpunk 2077 Builds Database page. See which build fits you best in my Cyberpunk 2077 Builds Tier List.

How Iconic Weapons Work in Cyberpunk 2077

Iconic weapons are unique versions of regular weapons. Each one has its own name, a unique effect and a short story, and most of them belong to a character or a quest. Since Update 2.0, iconics are the endgame weapons, not just collectibles:

• They scale with you: An iconic drops at the tier that fits your level, and you can upgrade it to Tier 5++ in the crafting menu. That is why I never worry about picking one up early.
• Upgrades cost components: Open the crafting menu and switch to upgrades. Iconics need more components than regular weapons, so I keep my components for the iconics I actually use.
• Most iconics have no mod slots, or only a scope and muzzle slot. The x-MOD2 weapons are the exception: they keep their mod slots and come with slightly better base stats. Almost all of them are in Dogtown.
• Crafting specs: Some iconics drop as a crafting spec from the leader of a Suspected Organized Crime Activity, and you craft them yourself. See Iconic Crafting Specs.
• Phantom Liberty adds 52 of the 116 iconics on this list, most of them in Dogtown, plus the black market where you can buy back the ones you missed.

Missable Iconic Weapons in Cyberpunk 2077

These are the iconics I see people miss the most. If you only read one part of this guide, read this one. A manual save before each of these quests costs you nothing.

Missable During a Quest

These sit in an area you can only visit during one quest. Grab them before you leave:

• Butcher’s Cleaver: Counter of the butcher shop during M’ap Tann Pelen.
• Cocktail Stick: Vanity in the Clouds VIP area during Automatic Love.

• Tinker Bell: Security room at Edgewood Farm during The Hunt.
• Tsumetogi: Tyger Claw screening room in Pisces.

Locked Behind a Quest Choice

Here the choice you make decides which weapon you get. Some choices give you one iconic or the other, like Chaos or Doom Doom and Ol’ Reliable or Riskit:

• Ambition: Spare Hasan in the gig Prototype in the Scraper.
• Apparition: Corpo only: loot Frank in War Pigs, or buy it from Herold.
• Bald Eagle: Reed route: loot Kurt Hansen in Firestarter.

• Wild Dog: Reed route: loot Kurt Hansen in Firestarter.

Ending Only

These are past the point of no return and only in one ending. Make a save before the final mission if you want them:

• Amnesty: Panam’s ending: Cassidy’s bottle challenge in We Gotta Live Together.
• Ba Xing Chong: Crafting spec: Adam Smasher’s vault on the Ebunike (post-game).
• Caretaker’s Spade: Jungle floor of Arasaka Tower in the final mission.

Missed an Iconic Weapon? Buy It From Herold

With Phantom Liberty, Herold Lowe runs a black market inside the EBM Petrochem Stadium in the north of Dogtown. Fast travel to the stadium and look for the vendor icon with the eurodollar and the glasses.

• Missed iconics: Herold sells many of the iconics you walked past, once the quest they belong to is done. That covers weapons like Kongou, Nehan, Jinchu-maru, Errata, Problem Solver and Widow Maker.
• Exclusive: The Order Tech double barrel is only sold by Herold.
• Stock changes: His stock grows as you progress through Phantom Liberty, so check back if you don’t see a weapon right away. Bring plenty of eddies.
• Not for endings: The ending-only iconics from Arasaka Tower and the Aldecaldos camp can’t be bought back.

---

Iconic Crafting Specs and Where To Find Them

These iconics drop as a crafting spec, mostly from the leader of a Suspected Organized Crime Activity (the NCPD skull icon on the map). Kill the leader, loot the spec, then craft the weapon in the crafting menu. You need the components for it, so Lucky Day and a few disassembled weapons help.

• Ba Xing Chong: Adam Smasher’s vault on the Ebunike (post-game).
• Breakthrough: Olga Longmead, crime activity New Boss, New Rules.
• Buzzsaw: crime activity behind the Northside Ripperdoc.
• Comrade’s Hammer: Darius Miles, crime activity on Hargreeves Street.
• Moron Labe: Anton Kolev, crime activity in West Wind Estate.
• Ozob’s Nose: reward for Send in the Clowns.

• The Headsman: Militech Minotaur, crime activity in North Oak.
• Yinglong: Denzel Cryer, crime activity in Wellsprings.
• Erebus: Reed route only, from Somewhat Damaged.

Iconic Weapons From Dogtown Airdrops

Airdrops are the red smoke crates that fall in Dogtown. You have to race the gangs to them, and they are one of the best loot sources in Phantom Liberty. Two kinds of airdrops give you iconics:

• BARGHEST series: From level 41, regular airdrops drop six iconics in a fixed order: Chesapeake, Pit Bull, Amstaff, Chinook, Catahoula and Foxhound. You get the next one only after you have looted the one before it, so keep claiming airdrops.
• Scripted airdrops: Laika, Alabai and Borzaya come from special airdrops at fixed spots, and Taigan turns up in the airdrops as well.

If you claimed the BARGHEST weapons through Prime Gaming, they are already in your stash.
