Last I knew (as of several months ago), the boulder sealing off the family of the moisture farmer in the Sennex cave was broken, and wouldn't allow you to place the explosives to blow it up.
And yes, the quests are otherwise all still a pain in the butt. My tactic was just to go about my business as a bounty hunter, and whenever I was on Tat, keep an eye open for them. I found both the Moisture Farmer and the Wild Bladeback Boar that way. Y'know... looking by *not* looking.
The Pirate Leader waypoints here on Allakhazam are also no longer accurate. They seem(ed as of December '05) to spawn a lot around the Farmer's Wife's House.
