the problem you might be having is with the group system, remember there's a lot of group going on at the village during those waves of sith, the best way to pass is getting into a big group (full group) and try to shoot at whatever your group members are shooting, I think the way it works is whichever group damages the target the most that group gets the credit but you have to shoot at the same target too. I passed the quest melee defence in 1 1/2 waves.... try that you might better results
Killing the sith in this phase are exactly the same as normal kills, ie whoever (group) does the most total damage to them, gets the xp and the loot rights (and in this case, the kill counted towards your totals).
So if your group does 49% of the damage to a Sith, and another group does 51%.. they get the kill count, xp and loot rights, you get nothing I'm afraid. First shot, kill shot, highest damage shot, mean nothing.
The good news is, most groups are disorganised! I had a great bunch of people to do this with this morning. They all targeted me, I ran an attack macro (just an attack with a 1.5 sec pause on it) and solely concentrated on picking our targets. We were "fighting" with another group for the kills and we all got what we needed in just over half the spawn using this method. All I did was make sure that we attacked Sith that still had over 3/4 health left (or full was better to avoid as much "stealing" as I could) and the fact that we had 8 weapons bearing on 1 single target nigh on guaranteed we got credit on every Sith I picked, whereas the other group trying to pick and choose as individuals were still going when we left.
The second thing i noticed is that you dont get the system message (for instance: 15pirates remain) if you shot the target just a bit, i had to shootone the whole time (almost kill them by yourself, so kill one, then go for another..) --> this seems kind of strange, but it worked for me. And as you know, anything is possible at Soe these days
