Key Points
- You must choose whether to antagonize or delay Damien’s actions to hack his phone.
- Achieve the best outcome by provoking, then delaying, then provoking again, and finally delaying again.
- You can continue to provoke Damien if your health bar can keep up, as this will help complete the hacking task quickly.
In 007 First Light, some tasks will require a bit more strategy while deciding which dialogue option you should pick. You will face some difficulties while trying to hack Damien Webb’s phone during the Uninvited quest, as you need to decide whether to risk your health or work on getting the hacking done.

How to Hack Damien’s Phone
While chasing Damien down to hack his phone, you will fall unconscious and be taken to Webb’s secret lair. You are still tasked with hacking his phone, but this time, you are all tied up. The only way to draw him close to you is to provoke him, but this comes with consequences. If he gets close to you, he will beat you up. This will drastically lower your health, and if this continues, you might lose the mission.
There should be a fine line between provoking Damien and stalling him to replenish your health. The more I provoked him, the faster it got to collect his phone data. But I had to keep a tab on my health at the same time, so I couldn’t rush the process at the expense of my deteriorating health. If I stalled too much, Damien would just walk away, which would fail the mission too.
Provoke or Stall
- At the start, you will have a decent number on your health bar, so get Damien to come closer by provoking him. He will come over and hit you, which will drain your health.
- Next, you could stall and replenish your health, but I chose to provoke him again. I waited until I got the Low Health warning below my health bar before stopping provoking him and starting to stall instead. Stall him just one to get your health back up just enough to survive the next hit upon provocation.
- By now, your hacking percentage should be above 60%, so a few seconds more is enough to get the task completed. Damien will choose to slowly walk away after the previous stalling, but you get one final chance to provoke him.
- He will come back, and his attack will be far greater than usual. But, with whatever health you have left, you should survive the attack and also get 100% hack rate on his phone to complete the mission.

FAQs
Are there other ways to get Damien to come closer?
No, since you are tied up, you need to provoke him to come closer and continue hacking his phone.
Can I redo this objective if I fail?
Yes, you can try again if you fail the first time and plan your strategy carefully.
What’s the best dialog order for completing this task?
Start off by provoking Damian, then either stall or provoke him again, depending on your health bar. If you have stalled previously, provoke him once more, or stall if you had already provoked him earlier. Repeat with the opposite of what you had chosen previously to complete the task.
