there are 5 better ways to gear up

crafted. 250
Dunscathe. 260/270 accessories
shire. 260/270
Alex savage 270.
Now please explain how me rolling need on a 245 dungeon drop so i can get gc seals is hindering you.
In 4 out of 5 (excluding the crafted*) ways of gearing you mention the chance of getting an item is, at most, half (8 vs 4 ppl) of that in a light-party dungeon, for a similar time commitment.
In addition to your needs, is your time worth more than others' now?

* Crafted items are currently the fastest and most efficient way to farm GC seals. You don't even need i250 -spam an i220 synth, it's way cheaper.
