Only the woolamander harrowers drop fragments (as loot), and only two spawn at a time, in the NE corner of the palace. Prices vary from server to server, but they're good loot if you can get them. I looted six on that trip, and sold the entire lot for 2 mil. Might have gotten away with a slightly higher buyout, but I honestly can't complain.

mrrr....i went there to check out those loot dudes, and was stopped in the door as a few of them agroed on me there.
While punching around with my PH, some dude runs past me, straight to the harrowers, kills them, and runs off
HOW RUDE!!!

When I was newish I was at the palace and looted some bone frags... a bunch of em. It was my first time killing woolamanders and I ended up selling the frags amongst a pile of other crap for 100k. I'll always regret that; retrospect is 20/20 eh. At least it was a learning experience!

Posts like this really make my day.
And Rhuidean-- yeah, the palace can be a hotspot at times. I'm usually pretty lucky when I go there (not in terms of loot, but in being the only one there). But, if someone else is there camping the NE corner, I just move on and get back to my hunt. Checking the palace now and then while hunting is fun. Sitting there twiddling my thumbs waiting for the harrowers to respawn (which takes a long time) is not.

With the new insect meat shift on Yavin on Chimaera, i went out there to collect some,
and in the usual way, i take out to look for some wildspawns as they hold more bugs
then the missionspawns does. BUT, the planet was practically crawling with players,
and i got a few friendly tells
whenever i went by a spawn to check it out.
Turned out to be someones mission spawn and not a wildspawn.
So basically, is there a way to tell the diff. or do i just simply have to move off
the mission areas and far far into the wildernes to get some peace while harvesting?

mission spawns will have the name of the creature that is in the lair, whereas wild nests will say dead log or something to that effect.

Not too many mission terms on Yavin. All you have to do is get at least 2 or 3km away from whatever starport you landed at, and track away. Yavin has plenty of space that's outside of the mission zone. Also, almost nobody works out of the Imperial outpost there, at least on my server. What works best for me is landing there, then picking a POI (I'm partial to the woolamander palace), then walking out there. You'll find tons of spawn along the way, plus when you get there, you can take a wee break and try and snag some woolamander bone fragments. I was hunting wooly hide there a few weeks ago, and that little detour ended up netting me an extra two million credits. Good luck!

Another deal about spawns.
The more players on the planet, the fewer "wild spawn" it has. Try hitting Corellia at server reset (8am for me) and you get wild spawn all over. Wait until the lil darling's are home from school and you can't find a wild spawn to save your lungs. Gags me, as 95% of the morons don't leave Coronet either.
If you wait too long, such as after work, and the spawn is good, your walk may be for naught. You may have to resort to missions to get any resources.

That's one of the reasons why Yavin is my absolute favorite stomping ground. It's just not a popular planet, at least on Naritus. I don't think I've ever seen more than ten other people there, even when there's a good shift in yavinian resources. I've not had any trouble hunting there even once.
