I forget the guy's name, but I was in the Business Sector of Corellia and I took a wrong turn. There was a uniquely named Champion NPC just North and West of the train station. He dropped the Dark Presence datacron decoration for me. Edited by OmenQ

Terminal Injuries, Imp Heroic +2, Nar Shaddaa and a Dark Cunning Datacron decoration dropped from the first or second set of trash mobs. Nothing from the boss.

 

Droid Repossession, Imp Heroic +2, Alderaan -- no datacron decoration.

 

Sabotage, Imp Heroic +4, Alderaan -- no datacron decoration. All I got out of that was a reminder of why I prefer not to do non-instanced Heroics. I got 3 non-decoration achievements in this one from having to kill the same golds over and over.

I got 2 Light datacrons off ordinary rebel settlers in the Balmora Bonus in the Sweetwater area playing as Empire.

 

So it seems you do not need Heroics to get them.

Good to know. I could take down every NPC on a planet, and still not get a datacron decoration, though. Not good.

Ilum Emp side, I got one from the Black Market Box for doing the Heroic 2 Poisonous Strategey, but I've don't that every day and have only gotten one, and my friend has done it one less time and gotten none.

 

The second one I got from the Champion that stands in the corner up where Defend the Shipment takes place.

 

Nar Shadda, Heroic 4 Hunger of the Vrblthers seems to have a 100% drop rate from the last Champion that you summon. You can kill it and reset the quest to keep getting it over and over.

Keep in mind that the decorations are random drops with high chances from the lockboxes you get from the end of the heroic missions and the bosses inside the heroic missions. This means that knowing it dropped off some location for someone else doesn't mean it will be the same for you.

On the Republic side, Hoth, I received the Light Datacron: Aim in the Heroic 4: Prisoner Extraction, which is the heroic you pick up inside Aurek Base. Once inside the heroic bear to the right (Player @ -2342, 113) and and you'll find an Imperial Guerilla Commando (84k HP). The datacron actually came off the puny Imperial specialist (8k HP) beside him. :)

Taris Republic got off one of the medics once I went inside the instance. I think this drops off Random mobs.

 

Heroic Area Infested Resistance Balmorra Republic Dropped off Colicoid Hivemaster. The mission is Acquired Taste

Completely understand where you're coming from with this. And you're quite right in that they can drop from anything. That said, one of the above posters mentioned the random champ mob on Corellia near the transport station. I found him and killed him twice and got the datacron both times.

 

My aim isn't to say "YOU MUST KILL THESE MOB AND ONLY THESE MOBS TO GET THE 'CRON!!"

It's more of a "Hey, people have had good success with these mobs, maybe they'll work for you too".

Quesh, Imperial side, Light Cunning Datacron dropped from Foreman Telleon in Imperial Mining Control Area. A guildee and I went thru all six champions (Rogue Cartel Warbot, Foreman Telleon, Yanu Selke, Master Saryta, The Colossus, and Lord Rhexa) as available to faction. The datacron did not drop again. Just have your droid pack you a nice lunch and enjoy the drive around Quesh until it drops for you. :)

A very good friend of mine - and I have absolutely NO reason to believe that she might be lying ! - wroite yesterday to me that she got 1 datachron from a simple mob on I think it was Belsavis. Or was it Balmorra ? It began with "b" for sure. ;) It had been a long play session with her, so I cannot recall everything in detail anymore.

 

I don't recall with one it was, but I can ask her. I'm quite sure to meet her in-game today again (as she is very busy in collecting decorations, too ;) ).

I have been grinding Quesh like mad for the last 4 hours, and havent had any luck on getting the "Light Datacron (Cunning)", and there arnt any for sale on the market either. :(

 

Can it be bugged or something?

 

Sounds like just really bad luck. If you're Imp, I highly recommend those elite republic droids to the west of the taxi point, near the venom mines - had a few drop off them, as well as the Champ Foreman further up the path.

Alderaan, Imperial Mission Shock Doctrine has rewarded the Light Willpower 2 of 2 times in the blue mission reward box you get when you turn the completed mission back in. This is the Heroic 4 that you take the "special" thranta taxi to at Elysium Recon Camp.

I got my light aim datacron from Frostclaw in the heroic 4 mission for republics of the same name.

 

On quesh I simple bought a few blue loot boxes opened them they and got light cunning datacron then there.

 

On Republic Taris I got my light presence datacron from the last champion in the heroic 4 mission Total Elimination.

 

Got the light willpower datacron in the republic heroic 4 mission Red Handed.

 

I think that light endurance datacrons can pretty much drop in all of the four heroic 4s associated with the weekly there, got at least three doing the weekly as a republic character.

After days of grinding Ilum's Republic Heroic, I finally got the Dark Aim Datacron drop off the daily mission "Crystal Clear Sabotage" in the Eastern Ice Shelf/Western Jedi Ruins off an Imperial Demolitionist that spawns during that mission. Halla'freakin'lujah. Ugh.

26 times I've fought Jimme Weasle and no drop, pretty sure that is a hoax. Wasted day.

 

Edit - blue box from Heroic 4 Explosive Assault dropped the datacron decoration first try.
