Thread: Locations of night and hermit spiders.
As I finally make my jump into a more serious forum...
There are MASSIVE numbers of nightspiders on Rori. Especially outside of Restuss. Or did I reverse that. It's the moon of naboo... Narmle is the other city. Anyway...
I have snagged probably thousands they spawn right outside the city and almost every mission terminal offers tons of nightspider quests on the lower levels. They evenfight withchumbas, cappers, and frail squalls that also spawn outside the city. I occasionally just lob traps at them while they attack each other then pull out a rifle to mow them down. Great source of tons of relatively decent hide/bone/meat units.
It's not an exploit its what I call witnessing natural selection.
Rori is also a great source for Assorted Squalls and Vir Vir each offer between 250- 350 rifle xp, around 15 combat XP and 100 Scouting. Usually somewhere near 16-20 hide/bone/meat units also. They're slow critters so fighting two at a time isn't terrible, just time consuming. I started on the Squalls and worked up to nightspiders 'cause they're quick little... well... buggers.
Which reminds me Noobs, Rori is a great place to get started as a Scout. Lots of open land with few terribly aggressive creatures. Just watch for Plains Cats... most other Red Cons won't agro (I'm assuming this will be fixed soon) but even if they do they're mostly not too tough as long as you stick to around 3000 of Restuss.. I can't speak for Narmle. Fair warning Rori's bazaars, at least on wanderhome, are pretty empty for good equipment.
I should be Rori's Travel agent... lush vegitation, fine folks, cute fuzzy's waiting to be harvested...

Wyndinn,
Rori was the first planet I visited once I finally got off Naboo. I fell in love immediately - lush vegetation, large slow moving and easy mobs, plenty of Scouting opportunities, and - like you said - lots of Nightspiders.
As for on Naboo, now that Spider Central southwest of Theed has been destroyed, Moenia and the route between it and the Emperor's retreat was where I would head when I specifically wanted Nightspiders.
But the point has been made that these critters infest NAboo, and that's also true.
