Is Renegade Raider rare?
Renegade Raider is culturally OG, but Epic has brought it back to the Item Shop many times. Appearance count and last-seen date matter more than the Season 1 name — nostalgia is not the same as current scarcity. Scarcity score 23/100 (Common rotation).

Is Aerial Assault Trooper rare?
Aerial Assault Trooper shares Renegade’s early Chapter 1 fame. It has also returned to the shop repeatedly — treat it as a rotation skin unless the vault gap grows long again. Scarcity score 23/100 (Common rotation).

Black Knight
OG / Exclusive
Chapter 1 Season 2 Battle Pass — never a normal shop sale.
Renegade Raider
Common rotation (check last seen)
Season 1 classic. Still famous, but it has returned to the shop in later years.
Aerial Assault Trooper
Common rotation (check last seen)
Early Chapter 1 unlock vibes — many shop returns; verify live history in the tool.

Samsung promo exclusive — not purchasable with V-Bucks in the regular rotation.
Honor Guard
Pack exclusive
Honor pack / region exclusives often skip the daily shop entirely.

Icon Series
Icon Series collab — rarity tier is Icon; scarcity depends on how often it rotates back.
Shop color rarity vs real rarity
When players Google “rare Fortnite skins,” they often mix two different ideas. The blue / purple / orange / gold label on a cosmetic is Item Shop rarity — it mainly sets the V-Bucks price when that item is for sale (for example Rare outfits around 1,200 V-Bucks and Legendary around 2,000).
Collectibility is different. A Legendary skin that returns every other week is easy to buy. A Rare Battle Pass reward from early Chapter 1 that never hit the shop can be far harder to own, even if its color tier looks “lower.”
What this Fortnite skin rarity calculator checks
Search any outfit by name. We pull live cosmetics data, including shop appearance history when available, then score scarcity from appearance count, how long the skin has been vaulted, and whether it came from the Item Shop, Battle Pass, Crew, starter packs, or promos.
Static examples above cover Black Knight, Renegade Raider, Aerial Assault Trooper, and Galaxy so crawlers and first-time visitors see complete reports without typing — then use the live search for any other outfit.
OG skins, vaulted shop skins, and Battle Pass exclusives
OG usually means early Chapter 1 cosmetics tied to Season Shop, Battle Pass, or limited unlocks. Some of those names later returned to the Item Shop (Renegade Raider, Aerial Assault Trooper), which lowers scarcity even if the skin still feels special culturally.
Vaulted shop skins sit in the middle: they were buyable, but long gaps between appearances make them feel rare again. Battle Pass and many promo outfits (Galaxy) often never become standalone shop offers, so their unlock path stays closed after the season or campaign ends.
How to use the scarcity score
Scores run from 0 (common rotation) to 100 (ultra scarce / OG exclusive). Use them to compare skins, not to price accounts. FortniteTools does not estimate real-money value, and buying or selling accounts violates Epic’s rules.
