The term "RNG" is often used in place of the word "Variance". It is a misnomer. Variance and RNG are completely different things and it's important not to confuse the two.
This isn't a statistics class.

The time at which Titan jumps between fights varies depending on your group's DPS with addition breakpoints depending on animations. Unless you're going to simulate the normal transition spots and predict based on your group's DPS, it is, in fact, a bit random.

With good luck on gaols and generally normal luck on transitions, a MNK can achieve close to 100%. Most regular mechanics Monks can deal with and still maintain GL. There is no landslide or bomb mechanic that should cause a drop in GL. With very high group DPS, a MNK can also maintain through a gaol, although it is iffy.

My comment was specific to phase transitions (and I had one yesterday where Titan transitioned, then paused, then re-did his last animation -- the total phase transitions was ~15 seconds -- try to maintain GL through that).
