Baron Flynt is located in the Salt Flats.
GLITCH WARNING
The lift you have to take up to fight Baron Flynt is incredibly laggy for some unknown reason. To avoid the worst of the lag, look straight down at the floor the moment the lift starts and don't move until you reach the top. This must also be done for the return trip. To get the lift back if you accidentally fall off you have to exit the area (going to the Arena in the Salt Flats will do) then return to it. Note: This glitch has been 99.99% fixed in the PS4 version so you only get a lag spike for a second, then it's gone.
For this fight we strongly recommend you bring a corrosive or incendiary Helix Rocket Launcher and the best Shotgun you can find, as well as strong shield with fast shield Regeneration. Grenades are of little use here so don't bother using them unless you get cornered.
As soon as you get off the lift, Flynt's intro cutscene will play and when it's finished he will set his bandits on you. Ignore Flynt for now and focus on the first two waves of enemies and once they're dead his bodyguards called Franz and Hanz will show up. Once all the enemies are dead you can start working your way to the top of the structure and the showdown with Flynt. He isn't that hard to kill, you just have to watch out for his Rocket firing Shotgun, bring his shield down with your Shotgun then finish him off with a few headshots. Once he's dead, grab his unique Shotgun then get the Eridian Artifact from the chest at the top of the structure, only it won't be there as someone has beaten you to it. After the ensuring ECHO messages, follow the Waypoint to your next Mission.
