I fought one that had 76k HAM, that sound about right?
Well as a wanna be Commando I had Flame 4 and was kicking it's butt.
After 30 mins I finally killed it.
And got nothing. No XP no Money and no Feather. Bug reported and SOE of course
failed to respond.
Was very bummed.

I live about 2k east of Keren and have had several spawns near my house. The nice thing about these spawns is they generally spawn in 3s or 4s - as long as you can kill them fast enough.
But I've found the best places to look are anywhere between Keren and Kaadara, all the way up to the North edge of the map.

I have noticed a pattern with spawns, or not a pattern per say, but a much easier way of gettting things to spawn. If you clear everything out in a given area (helps if the area already has a lot of lairs and such in it) you can sort of force a spawn of these rare things. I do it on yavin for black sun and it works, did it on naboo for feathers (one for RIS quest, if you want good RIS armor use normal layers, RIS layers only are good for reduced encumberance). Im wondering if this can also be done on lok for RGKs and for GDKs. Im thinking if a well organized guild got together and cleared a large area eventually they would spawn, and if a doc was there to buff, they could do that all day forcing them to spawn and there by increasing the chances of getting RIS components. Does that sound a bit off the wall, or could I be on to something? Granted it takes a long time and you have to kill every single little thing in a large area for this to work, but if several people were willing to do it, I think it may be possible.

Ok, this may be a dumb question, but I am just now getting into this RIS quest. Do the items (feather, gurk king hide, gdk scale etc) are they looted from said creatures or harvested? Reason I ask is my character I will be using to kill these spawns has no scout abilities.

Not all the time. I found a lair of normal Peko Peko's. When I blew the lair, the PPA came out and he was a red dot to me from the start. Not sure if this is because I was attacking the base but nothing else cons red when you kill it's home.

after seeing this post yesterday morning, i proceed to get buffed and tried to look for peko peko albatrosses..
going in straight line from theed (once you get down the escarpment behind the spaceport) to kadaara, i spotted and despawned 4 albatrosses about 2500m from theed, and again, spotted and despawned 3 albatrosses 850m from kadaara.. all within one buff period.. i probably wouldve located more if it wasnt for all the tell hells I always seem to be in =P
anyways.. in the first set of 4 spawns, all 4 gave me feathers.. in the second set of 3 spawns, 2 gave me feathers..
so theres your confirmation.. you just need alot of patience, you need to be ready at a moment's notice, and you need to keep your eyes on the radar and in the air..
(this was on Starsider by the way, where I used my powerhammer to defeat them all)
(oh, and bring Thakitillo food with you.. lol..those buggers KD+dizzy like no tommorrow)
