Thanks Droodler. I understand now.

I checked the latest EQEMU database. The frenzied ghould has a 1 in 10 chance to spawn, and each frenzied ghoul has a 1 in 5 chance to drop an FBSS. I realize this may be very different from P99, but it might be useful as an initial assumption.
If this is accurate for p99, then I did indeed get pretty darn unlucky. 20% chance to drop a fbss means that there was only about a 16% chance that I shouldn't have seen it at least once from 8 frenzied ghouls. And then there is the fact that I saw slightly fewer frenzied ghouls than the average.

Edit - again, assuming those numbers are accurate for p99, I think the average-ish time someone would have to spend at frenzy to get an fbss would only be about 6-7 hours.
