Copied from an old post and updated:
I'm a Master Pistoleer with a bit of CM and Doc...
Neutral Destroy Corvette Missions
Kill loads of the Corsecs... can drop Berzerker Components, the three loot containers can have AV-21 powerplants in em. Perfect for Combat Medics as you can just poison through the floors and walls and end up only needing to 1 shot the guards.
Start the quest with the NPC called Bruce just inside jabbas palace.
Krayts
Juvenile Krayts are easily solo'd and can drop good tissues, butno pearls. Canyons are solo'able but the cost to armour outweights the loot chance for a pure pistoleer... or you could bring some friends and share out the loot afterwards. Use the /prone /healthshot2 /peace method to pull the juvie away from its mum.
Death Watch Bunker
Looting DE-10 Barrels and Schems, Executioners Hack Schematics and Jet Pack Parts from the chest that spawns an SBD, respawn timer on the chest is about 20 minutes, examine it before you open it to see if it contains anything and leave your bike outside and lure the SBD into the forest and lose it then go back.
Gorax
Drops bone shards, but really this takes me far too long to kill to be worth it.
Nightsisters
Can drop nice loot, I only tend to hunt them while going back and forth to the village.
Lord Nyax
20 Minute Respawn timer, can drop good loot if not dishing out grenades and not camped all day.
Geo Lab
AFK macro camp the merc room for schems and cubes.
Stronghold Faction Trooper Farming
This is something I've been doing recently, the troopers can drop some nice DoT weapons and CA's (the bigger dark troopers are more likely to, but tend to kill the unprepared player... they use stun batons and pull out 5-6k hit specials. I can solo these ok with my ADK PSG on.). For a rebel, head to bestine and kill everything there... imps can go to other cities like coronet.
JTL loot sales
You can sell level 10 guns to players for a fair price... and certain other loot too. Get yourself some tier 4 destroy missions and get grinding.
Hope that helps.

Never tried the Krayts, going to start doing them now.
Regarding the DeathWatch:
Been there and got a Yellow Barrel and A DE 10 Schem... WOOT!
Now my question is regarding that chest with the SBD and the 20min timer. I checked it and it said it had 1 content so I opened and was faced with a bloody rebreather that I cant even pickup. I tried opening that chest about 2 times then ran out of luck since some other players started popping in and I decided it wasnt worth the flaming.
All I need now is some Krayt Tissue and a WS and Ill be the Proud Owner of a DE 10.

The rebreather is bugged, you cant loot it, opening the chest again will spawn more SBD's and get you called a griefer.
I thought that you'd have to wait for a server reset, but I went back the next day and the server had not been reset and there was lootable stuff in there again. So, if you see a rebreater... leave the chest alone for a good few hours, preferably until a server reboot.
On my way to the DWB a few days ago I got constant aggro from various SBD's that had been lured into the woods, when I eventually got in I found the cause.
I player was trying to loo the contents of the chest and was openin itover and over again (not checking the contents) and had lured well over 20 SBD's into the woods.
I explained how to avoid the mess he'd caused and decided not to put in a ticket to a CSR about it as I had initially thought it was deliberate grief.
Good job on the DE-10 loot, it's a lot of fun and very rewarding to get all the stuff yourself, you just have to hope and pray for a good slice.
