I would suggest use burstrun to get to these guys, and spam some lunge2 when your about 20m from them. ONce you are in melee range, they shouldn't pull out the gun again, and should melee you. ONce you are in close intimidate and go to work, shouldn't be all that hard. Its like a NS Elder (light) lol. Also keep an eye out for the Tusken Executioner, they usually spawn near the Observers, pretty much the same with a bit more ham and better reseists. I have probably killed about 20 of these and have never got a drop off of either

I've looted Premiums and a Tusken Executioners Head.
These guys are a joke if you have first aid.

Not only observers have strafe but witchdoctors as well. A Tuskin witchdoctor took me out while I was battling an Observer. I snuck up on him and soon as combat came on I ran back back back - then when I thought a safe distance was there I burst ran up to him.
The WD came up from behind him about 4 minutes later.
I also found mine around the squill cave.

Yeah I took one on this morning. Peice of cake. Just keep him int. and stop your on bleeds and you will be fine. After the Observer I took out the Witch Doctor, even easier.

I just went to the waypoint 0, 0 on tat. One Observer and 1 Exacutioner, took them both in about 40 mins. All I got for loot was about 6k credits combined.

The Observers are easy once on Melee range, with an OK doc buff and 80% kinetic he could do nothing to me, did not even have to heal, just ignored the bleeds as they never seem to hurt much either.
I do have very low HAM armor, like in the 200's, so my regen rates are just insane.... I think many people overlook the regen rates on the HAM and go for super heavy armor, a mistake I feel.

so i was walking around tat doin soem quests when i saw this tusken observer, i thought it'd be fun to take him out .....well he aggroed me and took like half of health away in one shot form his rifle but then when we were up close he like wasn't even scratching me.......is he just way more powerfulw ith his rifle or are my defense more towards hand to hand combat?

as tkm, you have no ranged defenses. However, you do have melee mitigation 3 and unarmed toughness, which helps on hand to hand. Plus, if you're doing what you should, you intimidated him at your first opportuinity, which cuts his damage output significantly.
Tusken observers and executioners are rough customers.

Observers, witch doctors and executioners function like master riflemen.
Like the other poster said, you stand a much better chance if you can close the distance between you and him as soon as possible. If not, he will stay ranged and if you have no ranged mitigation, he's going to eat you alive.
If I know I'm going to fight him, I'll sometimes burstrun to close the gap, then immediately try to intimidate, stun and all other states i can apply.

Same thing happened to me once...he was then walking very confidently towards me for the DB, but at about 50m he turned around and ran off.
I was terrified the entire time
