What Happens if You Tell on Evelyn?

Published in Cyberpunk 2077 Choice 2 mins read

If V chooses to reveal to Dex that Evelyn Parker intends to cut him out of their deal, it directly impacts the profit share received for the heist. Dex, impressed by V's honesty, increases the percentage of the cut offered to the duo.

Increased Profit Share

Normally, Dex offers new recruits a base 30% of the total profits from the deal. However, when V discloses Evelyn's intent to betray him, Dex revises his offer upwards. This strategic decision by V results in a significantly larger payout.

Specifically, if you tell Dex about Evelyn's plan to exclude him from the deal, he will award V and Evelyn a 40% share of the profits. This represents a substantial increase over the standard rate, rewarding V for their transparency and loyalty to Dex in that moment.

Decision Outcomes: Telling vs. Keeping Quiet

The choice of whether to reveal Evelyn's intentions or to keep the information hidden presents a clear financial difference in the immediate aftermath of the discussion with Dex. Your decision directly influences the percentage of the cut you and Evelyn will receive.

Here's a breakdown of the financial outcomes based on your choice:

Action V Takes Outcome Profit Share Awarded
Reveals Evelyn's Plan Dex awards a higher percentage to the duo 40%
Keeps Evelyn's Plan Hidden Can still haggle for a slightly better cut 35%

Strategic Implications

Choosing to tell Dex on Evelyn prioritizes immediate financial gain, securing the highest possible profit share from him for the upcoming job. While keeping the information hidden still allows for a negotiation to increase the base cut, revealing Evelyn's duplicity offers the most lucrative outcome concerning Dex's payout. This decision highlights a moment where transparency, in this context, directly translates to a greater monetary reward from Dex.
