I really was joking the other day when I said at the rate I was going I would max out my crystarium before I got my 2nd trapezohedron... but, now I'm past role level 3 on the last role for all my dudes. Yeah.

I've taken down an adamantoise in one minute and 43 seconds. I've been fighting them since I was barely into my 4th roles. Trapz? 1.

Whoever designs this "1% drop rate" shit should be shot.

Heh, I know the feeling, but with White Knight Chronicles. There are plenty of items I need that only have a 0.5/1% drop rate. There's someone on a trophies site that went and tried to do 200+ runs of a single quest to get one item to synthesize one longsword (not sure if he got the item yet).

Yeah, at least in FF12 there wasn't a lot of stuff you actually needed to get dropped.  There were those retarded treasure chests that had whacktastically random 0.1% drop rates but they weren't really necessary to do anything.

And in FF11, the drop rates for items you needed was one of the reasons I got so bored of it.  "To get to level 50 you need to collect these rare items that only drop 1% from some rare enemy that only shows up twice a day so other parties will camp it and fight it first and then if your party actually gets the item, you have to cast lots to win the item and blah blah blah..."  Jesus Horatio Fucking Christ Batman.
