He won't offer me the quest to kill the pirate leader in Broken Oar Grotto. I have not done Lights Out or any other quests involving Broken Oar Grotto, and and I don't have any other "kill the bandit" or "fetch the item" quests in my journal. I'm using a new character and still at a low level, but I have been given this quest below level 10 before.
Does any body know of a fix to this? I'm not playing on PC so no console commands.

Hello! I know, what is it.
It isn't a bug. It happens, 'cause:
1. You came at day. You should come to his house at night time. He lives with Jala. So Jala's house = Ahtar's house. Do u get the point? ;)
OR
2. You should take Jaree-Ra's quest. And then u can get Ahtar's quest. I always do it. But on PC. My friend says, it works on everywhere. Maybe, he is right...
I hope, I helped u ;)

Thanks for the reply. I tried approaching him at different times of day, but I'll try asking him in Jala's house. Normally he offers me the quest as soon as I talk to him after he cuts off Hrogvir's head.

I'll also try accepting Jaree Ra's quest then talking to Ahtar. In the past, when I've finished Jaree Ra's quest and killed him in Broken Oar grotto along with the pirate captain, Ahtar would not join me (a lot of other sources suggest talking to Ahtar before accepting Light Out) I've never had this problem before where Ahtar simply does not have the dialogue option without any conflicting quests in my journal.

Hello! Unfortunately, you made one mistake.
You shouldn't finish Jaree Ra's quest. You should take it and... forget about the quest and go to Ahtar

I did that. I tried accepting Jaree Ra's quest, then talking to Ahtar. The quest didn't come up.

I did not receive the quest to kill Captain Hargar from Falk Firebeard or any innkeepers.
Talking to Ahtar before talking to Jaree Ra did not work.
Entering Jala's house and talking to Ahtar during the night did not work.
Accepting Jaree Ra's quest then talking to Ahtar before heading to Broken Oar Grotto did not work.
I even tried dropping many suits of armour in front of Ahtar to see if that would cause him to become friendly towards me, but that didn't work.

The option to talk to Ahtar about the quest to kill his escaped criminal has never appeared in this game. So it seems this quest has been bugged out since starting my current character. Very annoying, because I specifically intended this character to be a pirate hunter and was looking forward to having Ahtar as a follower.
