how long did it take for you to get the whole set?
I got half of it while I was getting the battlemage set but it took 10 runs for the chest to drop. In total? Maybe 30 or 40 runs. It was months ago so I can't remember exactly.
I'm still trying to finish Foestrikers set. I farmed over and over, probably didn't get chest until I was almost 40 on my MNK. Eventually I will work on the Infantry set and start the massive farming aaaaaalll over again. In all honesty, I wouldn't mind getting all the sets from Brayflox for vanity.
Yeah this is the problem. In the process of getting these sets you will get so much EXP from doing the runs you will outgrow them before you have all the pieces.
I once had the ambition to collect all gear sets in the game. In the process of levelling my classes, I ran out of inventory space and eventually got so fed up with it that I turned into my GC everything under level 70. Now I have some room (never as much as i'd want) but i'll probably have to farm like crazy once vanity slots finally grace us with their presence.
I spent 10 levels on my MNK literally doing nothing but Brayflox, trying to get the whole infantry set.
12 Runs for all Infantry pieces. I love that dungeon, it teaches people to learn how to work as a unit.
I got the whole thing while leveling my Paladin through it, barring the chest, which i got when my DRG started going through it, lol
Haven't done Bray much tbh but have the top, boots and gloves (x2, handed one in for seals while other pair was in retainer) still want the pants and bandana, shouldn't be too hard as I've got a piece every run I've done.
However, I am STILL trying to drop the Foestriker Tabard, even with doing low lvl roulette with my other classes every day, I have seen this top only drop twice in my whole time playing since day one, and lost the roll both times. RNG is what it is.
have been doing the run for 30-40 times already, only saw the pants once and it was taken by a bard=.=
I got the Head, Body, and Feet while grinding for Battlemage gear on my SMN. Dunno how many runs it was...
But I recently grinded for the Waist, Legs, and Hands on my BRD and literally leveled in nothing other than Brayflox from 32-41. No FATEs, not hunting log, no quests. It took a lot of runs. X_x
But the set is beautiful, so it was worth it in the end. Shame I can't dye it, but oh well.
Why would u even worry about gear before ur 50??
just that i need to get exp to lvl up, and want to farm at the same time
It was a while ago, so I've long since forgotten how long. I'd wager somewhere around 15-20 runs, given how poor my luck is at times. And that's a complete set, belt included.
btw, how long will it take to get a whole set of i90?
That entirely depends on if you do Binding Coil of Bahamut (and Extreme Primals) or not. A full set of i90 gear would run you 5'900 (you can only get one i90 ring) Myths (Assuming you Zenith a relic), which is a bit more than 13 weeks of capping Allagan Tomestones of Mythology. Naturally, assuming decent luck with drops through Coil and the Extreme Primals, the time can be easily cut down a few weeks. :p
For the actual topic, I can't say. I never really counted, but seeing as I always levelled my classes through instances once I hit 32 (they get fun by that point, earlier on they kinda feel like a slog)... I'm sure I must've easily run through Brayflox 50 times by this point. I kept running it all the way until 38 on my Black Mage before I moved on with my life. Ended up only gaining two Battlemage pieces. I got another three while levelling my Monk and Warrior through greed rolls, though. <_< Still no full set for any of the classes, but I have the full visual set for Infantry, so I'm happy. Just lacking the headpieces for Cavalry and Battlemage now. :p
Can someone show a picture of it please? The whole set

Sorry about hiding the headpiece, I personally think it's... erm, hideous. :p
It took me 9lvls to get it, the worse part was that this stupid poison dragon ca 30+ didnt want to drop my final skirt part of the set ! I will never ever again go in this dn by this dragon!
Happy that i got it :)
around 60-70 runs, lost count after a while
I leveled my bard from 32 to like 40 in brayflox, my monk from 32 to like 38 in brayflox, and my drg from 32 to 35 in brayflox...
On the other hand, it took about 10 runs to get my full battlemage set LOL
I think it took me 6 or so runs for infantry. I was incredibly lucky and picked up the full Calvary in 3. Now my WHM is going through, on run 8 and still need legs and boots for battlemages.
I really do like that dungeon. Its by no means difficult once you know what's going on, but it holds my interest. The environment is also very appealing.
I farmed all 3 sets from Brayflox. I actually completed the Infantry set entirely on Greed rolls -- it was the first one I completed. The Battlemage's set was the last one, due to a drought on Battlemage's Crakows, and when they dropped the first time someone else won the roll. Took me about a week of farming, and I leveled 6 classes from 32 to 35 (one to 38) in the course of farming. Note that this was back in 2.0, before the exp boost.
I'm still trying to finish off the Foestriker set. I have everything but the gloves and the one time I've seen them drop in about 30+ runs was when I was healing Copperbell Mines (so of course I didn't win them).
I have full battle mage, full Cavalry set, and only the feet, hands, and legs for Infantry, monk, acn, and lnc rings only, and did brayfox upwards to 50x. I had a string of maybe 8x where all that dropped was cavalry belt, and battle mage gear.
I will get my darn belt, head and body! Now matter how much longer it takes.
Oh and for all the ones that have trouble with foe strikers good luck. It took me a while to get that set...but totally worth it.
