Since it is what doctors want most where can you find it? I know you can find it on zucca boars on Tatooine but where else?

It depends on the planet and the server. Animal resources are like any other resource: they shift periodically. The old type goes away, and a new type shows up. Animal resources have a longer "cycle" than inorganic and flora resources (inorganic and flora resources will last 5-10 days before going away, while animal resources will last 8-23 days before going away), but they still change with regularity.

So the planet that's producing killer Herbivore meat right now will eventually stop and switch to something else that may not be as good.

So you just have to hunt around until you find the best meat.

And not just one type of animal gives good meat. Any animal dropping herbie meat on any planet drops the same type as all others dropping herbie.


Right now Insect Meat on Corellia is great (camo kits). Why kill Giant dalyrakes (who DB) when you can kill dumb azz butterflies and get the same meat? Same applies to hides and bone. Personally, to stock upI kill a load of little things, less xp, less danger, more time, but a lot less risk.


Going after the big stuff is more fun, granted, and I will do that sometimes. But the little things are there, have lairs I can check for eggs, and diequickly so I can harvest them. Plus I do missions, and harvest on the way out and back, so that's a plus too.
