Also, when speaking to Brem prior to the fight, he hints at being able to trade better goods after/if I get into Zarys' good books, but when you loot his body, he only has his standard goods plus anything you sold him.None of the chests contain anything that is much better, so not sure if I had actually delivered the chest unopened, if I would have been offered higher quality gear or not.
Trader's generally never drop their inventory, unless it's thing that the player traded to them. That has been consistent in my playthroughs at least. So it shouldn't matter in this case if you had access to the exotic items or not.
In order to get access you need to make sure the cargo is intact. Even if they blame Zarys you will not be proclaimed a friend of the Z unless it's intact.
