Rarity

From Neo Tokyo Citizen Wiki

Note: The current trade tool/assembler rarity scores are out of date. A new rarity tool will be implemented in two weeks. This article is primarily focused on (S1) Citizen rarity as there are no known benefits, outside of aesthetics, for (S2) Outer Citizens

All citizens and their components can be ranked by rarity. The main function of rarity is determining whether a Citizen is elite by having one of the top 500 component scores.

Component Score and Rarity

Each component (ID, Item Cache, Vault, or Land Deed) has a component score based on its rarity. The rarity of each component is effected by its metadata properties, including: items, yield, land, and traits. A Citizen's rarity is based on the combined component score of the three or four NFT components that comprise the Citizen.

Rarity and component scores can be found on https://neotokyo.codes/trade

Calculating a Citizen's Rarity
Component Component Score
Identity 892.78
Vault (optional) 132.50
Item Cache 984.86
Land 1250.00
Citizen's Total Component Score 3260.14

Component Score Stats

  • The highest Elite Citizen's component score is 4523.
  • As of March 30th, 2022, the 500th and lowest scoring Elite Citizen has a total component score of 687.
  • Uploading components with a combined score higher than the lowest scoring Elite Citizen will create an Elite Citizen.
  • Citizens will be disassembled, reassembled, and uploaded with different components to improve the resulting Citizen's component score as a way to become an Elite Citizen or maintain Elite status. Note: A Citizen loses its initial citizenship number when disassembling and a new one is reassigned when uploading.
  • Rankings are dynamic and the rarity score required to create an Elite Citizen will likely increase over time.

Note: the Rank and Rarity Scores on RarityMon (especially vault and item cache) do not correspond with the official "Citizen Component Scores“.

Components with the Highest Scores

Using the following highly-scored component NFTs will help a Citizen earn an elite rank.

IDs

IDs are usually the highest points (ranging from 150-700) of the 4 parts, but the following almost guarantee elite:

Land Deeds

  • Omnipresent land (1200 points)
  • Penthouse land (460 points) (no longer mintable)

Vaults

The highest scoring vaults are:

  • “?” multiplier vaults with or without items
  • General vaults with very rare items (300-400 points)

  • Some non-unique item caches can give up to 600 points
