Heres some MORE for Rori... LMAO
Leviasqualls and Vir Vurs (any type). These mobs are SUPER slow moving... and when you group with a droid they will give out decent xp.
Even if you have zero terrain negotiation you can easily kite these mobs around all day long.
The nicest thing with these 2 mobs is you are basically invincible unless you LET them hit you (bad news with leviasqualls they hit hard for a giant rabbit)

No need for buffs... no need to even carry your armor.
One of the Four Horsemen of the Smuggler Apocalypse! 
I got all my trapping xp from squalls too. Gotta love a slow moving target
Incredibly easy targets that the general public in this game tends to igore quite often.
Well the 30 some odd Faambas I killed tonight should make up for the killing the small fuzzy bunnies.
BTW... Rabbit legs taste good.
LOL
Thanks for the added information fellas (I almost think Rori will be receiving more attention than any other planet at this point, lol). I'll compile all of this and update everything today, and with all of the responses I'll create a section dedicated to buffs and grouping as well.
On a side note, does anyone have the exact numbers on how grouping raises experience? I'm sure it would be handy to give facts, but if not then I'll just have to test over the weekend and update the numbers then. 
Here is my step by step guide to hunting Giant Baz Nitches and why I love hunting them so. It isa bitgrindy, but you make money and pistol XP by the truckload. Once I got Last Ditch it was pretty easy to make 150k of pistol XP per hour of play (not counting your initial time getting buffs). Obviously there are other ways to get XP fast, but I play at odd hours and prefer soloing (and have no pets) so this fit my playstyle perfectly.
Giant Baz Nitches of Dathomir: They do kinetic damage, they give 3.5+k pistol per kill, they pay 11000 credits per mission, and have no resistance to heat damage so FWG5s will mow them down. That 11k credits per mission adds up like you wouldn't believe. The other important thing is you just need a set of high-kinetic resist (60%+) Ubese armor. You will feel a touch of peril when there is a Rancor or Nightsister lair 90m away from yours, but you learn how to avoid those pretty well.
My precise technique was this:
Wear high Kinetic resist Ubese
Equip an nice FWG5 (prenerf if you can get/afford it)
Get buffed by a Master Doctor
Fly to Dathomir
Get 2 Giant Baz Nitch Missions in a similar direction
Fly out to the mission
If there is anything else around that I might want to hunt (no heat resists, kinetic damage creature) I don't take my Muon Gold till I need if from my specials wearing down my mind pool
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Drive to the next mission during the downer from the spice
