Took me about 6 hours of camping total to get the drop, mostly about half of that with a high level thf helping me. It was horrible but I know people who have gotten it much faster than I did.
How important is it? If your party want to go to the goblin camp outside Ifrits Cauldron in the 40s, they might be a bit sulky if you don't have it. It's a nice fast route to Norg and the places of Yhoator Jungle if you don't have the OP warp yet and it tends to let you telewhore for a bit more money if you do that much. I just like being able to get around fast, for free and whenever I feel like it, it's one of the huge perks of being a whm.
I soloed the Altepa one and it's actually not difficult if you make sure you know exactly where you are going. If you don't have a map already I strongly suggest printing off (or drawing) a map of the Quicksand caves, making sure you have all the ledge drops and item spawn locations marked.
It also helps if you make sure you know where the entrances you want come out in up top because if I remember right you need to enter the caves through a couple of different entrances to check all the places the item could spawn. Also you need sneak for Anticans, acccording to wiki nothing actually sight aggros in Quicksand Caves.
