Well I'm from Bria and this is what works.
punch in all your FAQ waypoints from the guide contained in this very forum.
Notice that there is a distinct concentration of WPs in one area if you look at it on the planet map. (zoom in on the area to really see it)
Go to this area and you will notice the tall standing rock columns in the immediate vicinity (unless you play SWG by braile?) you want the column standing on the FLAT ground not the one on the top of the hill. If you are standing at the correct column you can see the edge of the valley sloping up on one side and also a large hill with another column on top of it close by. Cruise around that column when you search for the moisture farmer use your overhead map (Ctrl+M) as the NPC does not appear on the radar, he will be a white arrow on the overhead. Kill the mobs in that area over and over and eventually you'll get a clear shot at the farmer, I am not convinced the spawn of the farmer is dependent on the local spawn being depleted but you canot talk to most npcs while in combat (and there is always some little F*edit*K waiting to swoop on the NPC even if you found him first). Search in a radius of 200m or so around that column, always have it in sight.
Reasoning: The target area I mentioned is a plausible starting spawn point particularly if you realise that this mob runs off unless you catch him as he spawns. You can draw a line from my starting area to all the other WPs where the mob has been found according to the FAQ. This theory has been proven 5 times in my presence so I believe I'm on the money here. I dont have the exact WP as there is none there is an area where the spawn will appear, follow my directions and search that area around the rock stack. You have had no luck so far so what have you got to lose?
Most importantly is the timing! You have to get this guy before he wanders off because if he is not caught then another will not spawn till the first disappears. The only way to achieve this is to come on the server and search after reboot.I have noted that the NPCs for quests do not appear until after about 30mins of server uptime. If someone beats you to it, that's all good 'cause you know he'll definietly appear in the designated area in another 30-40 mins
I hope it helps you, much pain and searching went into the farmer but really is the easiest one to find. You just have to wait for him to pop up and you don't need to shuttle hop like you do when looking for the BH intellect spawn.

Nice guide I'll have to try it out after I find them damn pirates.
I used area track to get the boar, so if you know a Ranger get him to help you. I found it twice in two days, the first day took me about an hour. The second day took me about 10 minutes.
