The FRSS did drop here at one point in time, when there were undead Pirate camps here. The mob that I looted one of them from was a named large skeleton, First Mate Morgan. He and two other skeletons(undead sailors or some such name)would all pop at one spot.
Alas, the undead pirates no longer seem to appear there, this seems to be one of Verants experiment at temporary monster spawns. Should the pirate camps reappear sometime rest assured they will be camped with lineups of 3-4 people at at a time waiting.
The good thing is that the FRSS is LORE and once a person got one they would yield the camp. Also the pop time on Morgan or a undead sailor placeholder was only about 8 minutes with the FRSS a common drop on him(not always but every 3 or so) so the average camp time per person was only 15-25 minutes to get one.
Lastly let me say that compared to FBSS or silver chitin handwraps that FRSS is not the best haste item in the world but for a monk in his lower levels who cannot obtain better it is better than no haste at all. Best estimates seem to place it at 14% haste, some have claimed more, others less, but its still haste.
