How to start The Cadet’s Degrading Dilemma
Game8 associates The Cadet’s Degrading Dilemma with the prologue mission A Cause Worth Killing For. Its walkthrough places Corbin near a bridge at Horizon Point Station and says to read Corbin’s journal, which reveals that he fears “Mental Refreshment.” After reading it, speak with Corbin and strike a deal to lower the bridge.

How to delete Corbin’s demerits
- Read Corbin’s journal. Game8 says the journal provides the clue needed for the conversation with Corbin.
- Negotiate with Corbin. The walkthrough describes a Hack or Speech check as ways to reach an agreement and lower the bridge.
- Enter the Skip Labs. Proceed through the area to the terminal referenced by the task.
- Use the terminal to delete all demerits. This completes the task objective described in the guide.
Game8 lists 540 XP for an objective and 360 XP for task completion. Those are walkthrough-reported rewards; they have not been independently verified against an official source. Game8: The Cadet’s Degrading Dilemma walkthrough

Is Corbin’s quest missable?
Game8’s missables guide reports that The Cadet’s Degrading Dilemma is missable, and that failing the conversation or killing Corbin can affect access to the task and its outcomes. That guide does not establish broader later-story consequences, so avoid assuming the choice changes events beyond the quest itself. Game8: Missable quests and content guide
