In the Heroes side job in Cyberpunk 2077, Mama Welles holds an ofrenda for her late son Jackie. Unfortunately, your options are limited, so here’s the best thing you should bring to the Cyberpunk 2077 ofrenda offering.
What Should You Choose for the Ofrenda in Cyberpunk 2077?
The item with the most narrative impact in this quest is Jackie’s Belt. That said, it’s important to note that every single one of these things will affect future dialogues in slightly different ways as the story unfolds.
| Item | Narrative Influence |
|---|---|
| Leather Belt | The belt is a contentious choice. While one can see it as a symbol of overcoming adversity, it can also bring back traumatic memories for Mama Welles. It’s seen as a powerful item but with potentially negative connotations. |
| For Whom the Bell Tolls (Book) | Many players consider it the most personal and meaningful choice, as it resonates with Jackie’s reflective personality. It’s a popular pick for those who want to highlight Jackie’s depth and introspection. |
| Basketball | Considered a nostalgic item, the basketball is less frequently chosen but still meaningful. It’s seen as a symbol of his humble beginnings and desire to succeed. |
| Bottle of Tequila | Seen as a celebratory item, it’s appreciated for honoring Jackie’s vibrant personality and his dreams of making it big. Players feel it captures his joyful spirit and love for good times. |
You can only bring one thing to the Cyberpunk ofrenda offering.
The book and a basketball can be found in the first room while the key to the second room is located next to the beer. If you get hold of the key, go ahead to the second floor to get a tequila bottle and a Jackie’s Belt. Did you take everything or touch it? Make sure to select “take all” to add everything you can to your inventory.
However, to get the best outcome of this quest, convince Misty to come with you to El Coyote Cojo to attend the Ofrenda. Once at the Ofrenda, you can choose which items to place on the altar from your inventory. After the cyberpunk ofrenda offering ends, speak to Mama Welles and tell her Misty was critical of Jackie. However, you’ll still get the keys to Jackie’s motorcycle regardless of telling Mama Welles about Misty.

Can You Get Jackie’s Bike if You Answer No to Mama Welles?
At the end of the Heroes quest and completing the cyberpunk ofrenda offering, Mame Welles will offer you Jackie’s Bike. You can either accept the bike and grab the keys, or answer no to Mama Welles, which will rid you of receiving the bike. Unfortunately, if you answer no, you won’t be able to get Jackie’s Bike through the Heroes quest.
If you accidentally said no to Mama Welles and want the bike, your best bet is to reload a save file. I made the mistake of saying no and reloading a save file from before the quest was my savior. Doing this, you will have to redo all the steps mentioned in this guide, but you will also receive Jackie’s Bike.
That said, if you missed the bike by saying no initially, Mama Welles will leave the keys outside your apartment later, so you can still get it without reloading a previous save.
Making sure you get Jackie’s Bike is highly recommended, considering it’s most players’ first and best vehicle in the Cyberpunk 2077 playthrough. Having a vehicle makes exploring and getting between quest waypoints much easier.
What Happens if You Send Jackie to Viktor?
When deciding on where to send Jackie, the player has the option to send him to Viktor. If you choose to send Jackie to Viktor, you will be locked out of the rest of the quest and won’t be invited to the ofrenda mentioned earlier. Instead, Mama Welles will leave a box outside of V’s home that contains the keys to Jackie’s Bike. In other words, you will still receive Jackie Bike as a vehicle.
While this decision isn’t recommended, it’s not the end of the world, considering Mama Welles won’t be mad at you. You can actually call Mama Welles on your cellphone, and she will speak to you and wish you all the best.
