Endor.
You get level 40 missions butt naked, no weapons.
Not so good with weapons, get crazed gurreck missions. Merely 2k per kill weapons xp, massive scout xp, massive harvest of hide/bones/meat. Actually any 6k mission is decent.
Decent with weapons? Gleaming lantern birds, bordoks, and crimson bluurgs. Better xp, better harvests. 10-12k missions.
DO NOT MESS WITH SPIDERS,,, poison sucks and lasts for freaking ever.
Handacks too, to much of a pain to kill.
And, as no one goes to Endor, no lag. More than once my leaving has collasped the chat channels for the planet, meaning I was the only "person" on planet.
Bring friends and you get more XP, At least bring a droid. Buffing and armor are optional.

Hey folks.
I've been having a hard time finding ways to augment my XP (survival, hunting, and trapping) and was wondering if anyone could give me good pointers as to which locations offer great chances of up-ing my XP. This includes both solo and grouped hunts/fights.
Any help would be awesome, and thanks in advance.

Not sure what other people think, but I find that there's fairly good Scouting/Hunting Xp on Dathomir. Mask your scent and hop on your swoopspeeder and drive around for a bit. Just watch for Nightsisters as they can ruin your day real fast. Personally, when I want to get some easy scout xp to convert to force xp, this is what I do. As I said though, just beware of the nightsisters!

The greatest held secret in SGW, Rori. The planet is vitually empty, except for the few people that check up on their mining equipment. Go to any of the caves there, Borgal and Pygmy work the best. Currently I'm going for novice sowrdsman, but I can still take out anything in there. Plus the bats give 125xp per harvest and an extra 40 or so for masked scent. You can earn on average 5,125xp everytime you clear the cave and over 3,200xp for combat in the Borgal Bat cave. The Pygmy Torton cave also earns alot, and so does the Giant Bark Mite cave. The advantage is anyone with the 3rd tier in marskman or brawler and take out Bark Mites and anyone with 4th tier can take Borgal Bats and Pygmy Tortans. The best thing is they are always empty. I am on Chillastra and just cave jump from one to the other gaining xp. If my comp didn't keep crashing you could level scout in a few hours. And just place your camps outside everytime you get wounded, replacing them every 10-20minutes, and your wounds will dissapear. Also you can get around 119 trapping xp for Borgal Bats.

Thanks for the good advice. I actually ended up on Rori too... Those pygmy caves are a gold mine. Pygmies give awesome xp, for both scouting AND ranged/melee fighting. The harvest is terrible though, each pygmy only gave me 1 hide/bone/meat... Is that normal?
There's about 7-10 pygmies per cave, and I got to CarbineIV in two cave rushes. I love those pygmy protectors/matriarchs, tons of xp. It takes a little practice, but once you get the hang of it, you can eliminate the whole cave without ever needing to regen. Just outrun the buggers, but watch out for the adult pygmies; very fast, very strong.
I HEART RORI!!!
p.s.: Thanks again.

Rori is good. If you can't handle Endor, that's where I'd recommend.
In fact, that "Poacher vs. Creature" POI was the most fun I ever had as a newb.

The real secret which most ranged fighters used for a long time. The blueleaf temple on yavin. You maskscent burstrun through the door. Pray it dont break on you and go halfway down the ramp in the center chamber. From this location you can pick the kliknik dark defenders off. on the top wall go up harvest ungodly harvest xp. Since these are level 32 creatures. Go up finish the ones off on the far wall, and now all you got are weak ones on the floor. You start fireing. When you get one near death switch up targets. Then kill them all off in rapid succession. Once again huge harvest xp on the ground floor. Next you go to the entrance of the temple and pull the two inner door guards. Keep running eventually you will get them half roomed to you, and like before cannot touch you. Now go to the dungeons door proper and step out. Toss a wiremesh trap if it hits you get 500 points. Duck back in the dungeon this usually snaps the aggro if it does not repeat what you did with the inner door guards.
Entirely possible to master the three left branches of scout in a few hours here. If you need help find someone in the labor of mineing outpost to help you set up. I have done this for a number of noobs on yavin that asked for the hand. Since the creatures outside give large harvests. You can always just offer to give the helper the organics you loot.
Lastly camps I heard this one the other day get a creature pet off a be vendor. Tame it and set up a camp call the pet store the pet call the pet store the pet. You can self rack up visitors this way. A few hours later you got scout mastered.

I found this to be the easiest way to get trapping XP, it went very fast at 250XP per throw. Eat some Dweezl, make about 10 or 20 glow wire traps, and go throw them non stop at quenkers until you run out. Very easy way to get XP considering if you don't miss any you get 12500XP off of 10 traps. To me this was very good XP, but not sure if it would be for you.
