itempoint
Itempoint is a unit of measurement used in inventory and item-balancing systems to represent the overall significance of an item. It aggregates attributes such as power, rarity, utility, and cost into a single numeric score. The idea is to provide a common reference that helps designers compare items and manage progression, loot drops, or pricing.
In video games, itempoints are commonly used to determine loot tier, crafting requirements, or vendor prices.
Calculation and variation: There is no universal formula; common approaches include summing attribute scores, applying multipliers
Examples: A common scheme might assign 50 points to a common potion, 120 to a mid-tier weapon,
