Try going farther away then. I just did that same thing tonight with no problems. Get some distance from the camp and they should respawn.

This is by far and large the best way to maximize your loot potential.

I tried alone yesterday and no luck. Tried pulling out my combat bot and group with it, still no luck.

I usually jump into a solo group at Dantooine Mining Op then shuttle over to talus, usually Dearic SP. Group of 5 or 6 should be sufficient, as far as i've seen u get 5 NPCs no matter the group size once u can actually get the missions.
Last nite's loot btw - one of each of the Loot kits bits, 1 +5 Ranged defence ring, 1 AA (+1 HW speed/+2 Pistol accuracy) Locked container, couple of rebel/imp discs. Will keep trying

There is one creature in the SWG universe that drops more attatchments then any other. This is a very misterious creature that hides at the bottoms of caves on rori. It is the notorious and evil "Pile of Trash"!!! On a serious note, this is where a large portion of nice skilltapes come from. The two containers at the end of the cave. I have seen +9 and above tapes come from there. From my understanding, these containers will be filled at the server start up time, and that is the best time to loot them. The will be filled again around 3 hours after that, and 10 hours after server restart. It is not uncommon for there to be 2-3 AA or CA in each of the two containers. I have never had the patience to wait out the second or third spawn, but I have been there as soon as server restarts a couple times, and let me tell you it is 100% working.
Ok, ok i know what everyone is thinking, this is a pretty weak way to get your attatachments. I know it isn't as "noble" as a battle with a Nightsister Elder, but it is the most effective way to get attatchments.

Mm this is where the problems with AFK Looters camping the borgle cave came in, i understand they have drastically nerfed the spawn rate in that cave- is this the new system? 3 spawns a day? There is also the Pygmy Torton cave that i have to say yielded some reasonable amount of tapes on the odd times i've been there 
See peeps - there are reasons to go to Rori and Talus!

The afk looters are always there it seems, and now I hear there are a lot of cross server people that loot the caves with alts, sell on forumns, then ask for a cross server credit swap. That is why the only time I have ever looted anythign there is when the server first starts up, and I am the first in.

They nerfed that cave to respawn the debris piles every 8 hours.

If you have a smuggler friend, have him run in and aggro everything in the cave and run down to the AFK looter. Have him fien death, and the Bats will attack the looter. He dies, because he won't fight, and you get the loot.
Works like a charm.
