Are these spawns updated daily? Every 2-3 days? I went on Saturday, there were a ton of spawns, went yesterday, and couldn't find one...

good infos, i'll update it later on, though this guy seemed pretty sure about the blacksun assassin spawn inside the DWB being dropping bh armor like 2 or 3 parts a day if you kill it non stop.
edit: also to note today i only found 1 or 2 BS per spawn :/ so unlucky lol.

Yeah accross the bored, I have had my team camp the bunker for all kinds of things mainly for the Jetpack components, but with all the kills we have done, we have never looted a peice of BH armor inside the bunker, also I see people talk about the spawns, this guide is good at explaining where they can be found, but keep in mind they are not always in these locations, u all have to remember they are Random Spawns, in that area, the area though can be pretty large, a few hints to get them to spawn: If in a Known Spawn area, clear out everything in a 400m area, also if u are on a mount, do not go full speed, rather go slow like walking. I haved used both these methods and both do work. Its just a matter of waiting.

I spent this weekend hunting the Black Suns on Yavin 4. I mainly used Method 1.
I jumped on my speeder and headed for the mountain in the NW. Once at the base of the mountain I switched to my Bantha (nice and slow he is...) So, fully buffed and armoured I wandered up and down the hills.
First off, Klikniks and Crystal snakes can get annoying. Not becaus ethey do damage, because they're EVERYWHERE!!! LMAO! Anyways, onto what you care about....
So, I generally found 2 different types of spawns. Either 1 Henchman and 1 Guard or a single Assassin. Once killing the spawn it would respawn 3 times. I waypointed every spot that I killed a spawn for future reference. I also noticed that I would kill and respawn 3 times then the fourth time instead of BS's it would be some other creature (generally klikniks) so it was easy to tell when that spot dried up.
I have looted 1 bicep, 1 bracer, 1 helmet, and 1 pair of pants all weekend (all pieces had 30% resists except the bicep was around 29%). I probably spent around 6-8 hours total hunting. My hunting trail was to start at the bottom of the mountain in the NW, go all the way up to the top (making halfmoon type searches on the way up zig-zagging from bottom to top). Once at the top, I then changed direction towards the Geocaves and used the same methods, once at the GEO caves, I used the same method all the way back to the outpost.
It may be worth noting that in subsequent trips I returned to the exact wp's I had made before and have never seen a spawn happen at the sameplace twice.
I'm having a lot of fun with this actually, reminds me of the old days when we walked everywhere. I have new appreciation for my very slow bantha mount as well.
Good luck, and good hunting!

updated to 3.2 !
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
- i saw BlackSuns on Talus, do they drop some BH armor?
... no they don't, these are part of some quest and do not drop BH armor.
Other possible loot on these NPCs:
- from 500 to 3000 credits each
- JetPack Base
Sightings:
- this is a start, but when you find a spawn select the BS, and do /way on him, when your hunt is over please report here all the waypoints coordinates so we'll first list them all then try to see if we can determinate precise areas of spawn (may be we won't be able to)
