I have already completed both Elonan and Canthan Skill Hunter's and have just started Tyrian, I find it a lot harder than the others due to the lack of certain spawns, few outposts and the fact that many skills are only cappable in Missions such as Abbadon's Mouth, Does anyone have any advice on this Title?
Thanks
Bringer.

A lot of time and money. Stop being lazy and look for the bosses in the location. Even if it's neccessary, complete/vanquish the entire area.
If you are rich enough, buy elite tomes.

The bosses usually have random spawns throughout an area, check each these spawns, there are only rare cases where the boss has a chance of not spawning at all. If theres a few bosses that really trouble you to find, you can always buy an elite tome.
I did Tyrian first, so i see that as normall and Elona+Cantha as easy, so i think that would have been the ideal way to do it.

Keep in mind if you have EotN some elites can be obtained there.

Since the topic of elite tomes came up, are you allowed to use elite tomes of another profession other than your primary?

There's no easy way - you are going to get sick of the three missions in the Ring of Fire island chain and Perdition Rock itself. And the 5 trips to Mineral Springs. And Dragon's Lair....
It's worth it in the end, though.
On the bright side, if you've already completed Elonan and Canthan, you must have already done all the core skills.

You can only use tomes to obtain a skill that is unlocked. If you haven't captured an elite with some character on your account or bought the skill packs or used Balthazar faction to unlock the skill, an elite tome will be of no help.
As Marty Silverblade noted, some of the Prophecies elites are easier to cap in EotN. Other elites are available in more than one location in Prophecies, so you can pick the easiest one. Many elites available in missions are also available in an explorable, and some elites are available in more than one explorable. For example, Talus Chute vs Snake Dance. It's certainly easier to cap elites in the cave outside Droks than to go into Snake Dance for them.
The random boss spawns are a pain, but there are at least a few places where you can run out far enough to check which boss is there using the ctrl key. For example, you can run out of Camp Rankor into Talus Chute and go over by the rock wall to see which boss is up the trail. If it isn't the boss you want (matching your current primary or secondary profession), then you can simply turn around and rezone.
In other cases you will have to do a little fighting to check on the boss. For example, many of the bosses on Perdition Rock will spawn in the location to your right past the hydras as you exit Ember Light Camp. It's still easier to fight a few hydras and see if the boss you want is there than it is to scour the whole eastern half of the island for a boss that might not even have spawned.
The rest are just going to be a total grind, I'm afraid. Particularly the mission bosses. Pick a secondary and run the mission until you're sure the boss you want is or isn't there. Rinse and repeat ad nauseum.
