Scouting/Recipe question

hello! i was wondering what the odds are to get a recipe for an eye applicator through scouting is? i was told it is rare, but does anyone know how rare?

i've had about 5 scouts (very rough estimate) throughout the time i came back from my long hiatus last december, and i've only found 2 recipes, with (trying to) consistently send out scouts every single time they're full energy

i've found a sentinel variant applicator recipe (which i didn't even KNOW i had gotten, i was probably tired or rushing and didn't stop to see what i assumed were the usual amusement items) from a scout who just recently passed
however, she was not a scout her entire life, but probably 80% of it before i had replacements take over for stat grinding

and i more recently found the cetacean eye applicator recipe with my lead's pairbond who actually found it on one of her earliest scouts (it should be listed in her bio for specifics, towards the bottom). i just relieved her of her role today to stat grind for an NBW i just got, and she hasn't found anything since then

plus, taking a look at findable eye + sentinel applicator RECIPES on the TC, you can see just how valuable they are, adding to how rare some are over others (+ the difficulty it takes to craft them). so- my guesses are, the chances are QUITE low, and those who manage to find ones definitely got lucky on their scout rolls!! :D

apologies that i can't offer more specific percentages for example, but hopefully someone else can i'm very curious myself, including if it requires a certain biome to be scouted for a certain recipe (my scouts only go to glacier + rainforest)?

thank you for the insight!! i also mainly send scouts to glacier and rainforest. I also guessed they'd be pretty rare considering the outrageous prices i see on TC. Honestly, i just want to find the Crotalus eye recipe since its my fav. thank you!!
