The quest area for this quest was empty upon arrival. Turned out to be because I was on the questline Bwambas spirit. I finished the questline (10 min max) and when I returned to the quest area, the NPC:s were there, ready for bribing.
Is there anyone else here who wanted to just keep the bribe from Zeros and just plow through the easily killable guards instead?
(half of the 6 attacked me anyway might I add...)No? Just me? kk...

Description
The scoundrel! I had a deal with Arty to market the crystals in the paper. Someone must've cut a bigger deal with him. Arty routinely inspects the Venture Company's working area on the shore. He always brings his own guards, but no one is immune to gold in Booty Bay. Take my last bit of gold. Go to the oil rigs and bribe the guards to look the other way before you confront Arty.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Information is King
Information ain't cheap. Outta everyone, Zeros should know that best. People have sighted dangerous crocolisks around Janeiro's Point. You know what I see? Money, money, money! Get me their precious skins and maybe I'll remember something important about those crystals Zeros is after.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Zeroing Debt
I do hope that is the last we see of the Baron. Truth be told, I respect his seat of power in Stranglethorn. We were lucky to find Zeros still alive. He must have developed quite the positive relationship with the Baron before all this nonsense, or else he would not have been given so much time.
