I have already butchered 155 Timber rattlers and recieved no WSS.
But recieved 4 rainbow scales and 8 etterfangs.
I am sure, developers know all drop chances and I can't understand why they're keeping it a secret.

because, if they released that it is 1/500 (or 1/1000 or whatever it actually is), then people will be complaining left and right "hurr durr i've dissected 1000 snakes and still didn't get a WSS" (which is still a 36% chance, coincidentally).

MaxPlank once butchered close to 600 snakes with a second tier of lucky and didnt got a single WSS.
Also, i remember that he got once 3 out of 100ish snakes. RNG is RNG

My first WSS was after 415 butchered Rattlers. I have a bonus +9 rummaging (if it affects).
Also:
8 Rainbow scales
16 Rattle Rattlers
30 Etterfangs
So, preliminary drop chance is about 1/400... 1/500

That's a very good guess.
