It's too early to tell what odds are unless more people report numbers, but if it were only 1%, 1:400 wouldn't be out of the range of expected chance of failures. If it were 5%, the chance someone not getting one in 400 would be moving towards rarity. I'd have to do the math, and my probability skills are a bit more than rusty.

To note, the odds of getting a pearl in Haven are at 1:100 or less, so it wouldn't surprise me if it were so rare just to prevent it from easily being botted. (The fact you have to grow so many damn trees to begin with only encourages it, in my opinion.) With the development of the Curio system, Golden Eggs were added as something chickens could lay, and odds on that are less than 1:500. One of the factions had set up a mass egg production facility to try and get these in quantity. Colesie could tell you more as it seems to be one of his boasting points from Dis.
I am a moderator. I moderate stuff. When I do, I write in this color.

made a few hundred boards and no amber notes, seems highly rare which imo is a good thing (game needs more highly sought after snake skull type items imo)

well, seems I just got lucky then - got one after roughly 20 planed boards. On that particular character, I had 150 h&n, for those collecting that kind of data

I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.
