I always stumble upon Hurton stalkers by accident, but I can never find them in mission terminals even if I'm in a solo-group.When I click on the mission will it say "Huurton Stalker Lair" Or is the stalker just 1 type of mob that comes out of a Huurton Lair.
Like: If I get a Piket lair mission, I fight Pikets and Piket Plains Walkers etc.

Honestly, I was doing the whole Quenker thing, butI felt it was slow and boring. I went to Endor and grabbed two 10k missions in a direction and killed anything I saw. Basically the best xp i got was Forest Stalkers(gurreks) the lair kept spawning, after all said and done I got 30 and got over 118K xp in about 5mins, it was non stop fighting. But everything gives awsome xp except the jax's and squall's. I'm now Master Swordsman, and it didn't take me as long as dant.

if your going to hunt on Endor get Blood stained Merek lairs, 5k + xp and they are completely vun to kinetic damage (scythe) and i believe they are weak to blast as well.

If you're still low on the swordsman totem, try the areas around Mos Taike on Tatooine. dewbacks, banthas, tuskens etc.. nothing too tough, and lots of it. You'll grow out of it soon. Once you get up there, head to Yavin 4, the starport on the top, (forget the name) and just head up and down on the beach. avoid the snakes and klikniks for now, (unless you have some way to deal with poison) and the sintrails disease too if i'm not mistaken, so avoid those. otherwise swing away.

ABout the fambaas, I was novice swordsman and came across a rogue fambaa (naboo, btw) and i beat it pretty easily with my 4500 HAM combat droid tanking
i wasn't buffed or anything, of course

Honestly anything you have to spend more than a few minutes searching for is a waste of time, imho missions. I loved Endor, and Yavin 4 would be awsome too, it's just there is an abundance of mobs there unlike Dant Or the other planets. I could drive around and find anything. Also I wouldn't recommend Merek's right away, at least not the spin attack the lair cause once you get about 6-7 on you they really start pounding you. Even with medic, cause they seemed to hit my mind alot. But I am still using my 2.6 speed PH was a very nice slice for novice swordsman. It's the basic hammer so you should know the damage and such. I think i need a slower hammer cause with brandy I just eat my mind or it's the Mereks hitting it.

I tried out the Huurton Stalker method today, and I must say it's quite incredible.
I was getting 75k xp per mission and doing 2 missions at a time.
That's 150kxp per run, and each run took me about 20 minutes. I am a 1-2-2-2 Swordsman with no medic and I took them out very easily when I was buffed using spin2. If i got more than 5 on me at a time, they started hitting me too hard, and I died once, but it was just due to the fact I was getting used to the system. Once I got a good rythm going, it was easy sailing.
Only thing bad about it was that I only had an hour to play before work, or else I would have probably mastered swordsman in 1 buff session.

Stalkers are hard to come by. Normally I just make myself content with savage quenkers and the other huurton spawns. The only problem with those friggin savage q's is that it takes a lot to get them to charge into area attack range when popping the lair. Get a buff, get some brandy, and you're set.

Well, I tried Fambaas the other night and got squat. 6/lair max. Devs must have fixed the 30/lair
Here's what to do:
$5k quenkers until 0212
Huurton huntress and then move to Stalkers around 1422
