i hate SFK so much

hit 2k runs on Bleeding Hollow earlier today, only 1 gloom drop so far (on run 350ish) - it still drops, although the drop chance is frustratingly low.
 
For those who did see it drop, do you recall from which mob (or mobs) Gloomshrould dropped from (if from a common mob, what about a specific one)? I'm not interested in getting this BoE, though I'm curious why this particular BoE is notoriously rarer than the other BoEs from SFK.

To me, the current (and pre-WoD) notorious rarity of Gloomshroud compared to Shadowfangs (among other rare BoEs) suggests that the size of the set of mobs that can drop gloomshrould is much less than the size of the set of mobs that drop other rare BoEs. Otherwise, I don't see (or lack knowledge) on how this BoE in question would have a drop chance lower than any of the other rare BoEs (from SFK) in question (especially with the assumption that one rare BoE has the same drop chance off one mob as any other rare BoE, unless that assumption is false).

As wowhead states it drops from a particular mob " Dark Creeper " which are about 6 in the whole dungeon. But we can't be sure because all of us farmers make big pulls for fast runs. Though all the screenshots I've seen with the Gloomshroud drop, are just before, or after the 4th boss, where the dark creepers are.

It drops from every mov in the instance
 
Yeah, it dropped for me 2 runs in on my warrior.

I'm about 300 or so runs on rogue, nothing. Lovely, eh?
 
Mine actually dropped off of the 4 mobs right before godfrey - so either the dread scryers or spitebone flayers for me.

I uploaded this information to wowhead about 2 months ago, seems they didnt do anything with it tho.
