[ SLANG ][ LOOT_SYSTEM ][ NOUN ]
How rare a specific item actually is relative to how rare players perceive it to be, distinct from drop probability by describing the felt/community-perceived rarity rather than the disclosed numeric chance.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Its scarcity reputation is way overblown, the actual drop probability isn't even that low."
LORE & ORIGIN
Borrows 'scarcity' from economics, extending 'drop-probability'/'loot-inflation' with a perception-focused rather than purely numeric framing.
