How much have you grinded for one pice of glamor?

I've done Labyrinthe of the Ancients for quite a while to get the bard hat.

The "worst" was probably my Fieldcommanders Coat, though - thankfully thats not a random drop, but it requires 100 seal rock (PvP) wins and I certainly wasnt blessed with a 100% winrate... so probably around 250-300 Seal Rock matches.

There are still dungeon drops I've never been able to get. The current loot system was not put in place until ShB, so in dungeons prior to then it is total RNG.

It has nothing to do with when the dungeon was released (besides the ARR dungeons not having the guaranteed drop prior to their loot overhaul in 5.3). All levelling dungeons have a guaranteed piece; all level 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 dungeons do not.

A few hundred runs for casting earrings from t9 back in the day. We never saw them drop until like halfway through heavensward.... We cleared in 2.3...

I lost track of how many times I ran Swallow's Compass long before the Moogle Tomes let you buy the casting hat.

What are you even correcting, or are even compelled to do so? All I mentioned was that prior to the dungeon loot update, it was RNG, and there are still some drops I never got during that time. Sure I could go back now and farm those dungeons, but that goes beyond the point I was making.

On a closer re-read, the fact you concluded with "it is RNG" rather than "it was RNG" implied that it's still the case for dungeons released earlier, and I misread the rest of the statement based on that.

[AvenoMatt]

I don't remember but I remember grinding Gubal for the healer coat for a sch glam. I think I ran it like 12-17 times. Hard to say.

[Chie_M]

Zot at least gives a variant of the Bonewicca set.

Imagine my chagrin when EW released.

[Darkstride]

All of Eureka for the glowing Elemental gear sets.

For actual dungeons, I think the most if grinded was Swallow's Compass. I had gained probably 3 of every other full set before I saw a single caster chest.

[RatKing]

I've just completed my 20th run on Ktisis Hyperboreia trying to get the reaper chest piece.
I've seen every piece of gear multiple times now but never the chest piece. I'm starting to believe there actually isn't one in this dungeon.

What's the longest you have run a dungeon for grinding out one piece?

You do realize every run at the end of it you get a free drop right, this game has a hateboner for you receiving double items from dungeons so why not just keep them in your inventory? I remember doing it and no longer getting that same drop.
