Line 5:
If a drop is especially rare, it goes under the [[Sub-Trope]] [[Rare Random Drop]].
The rewards can vary from game to game, but their range is pretty wide. This makes the trope come with a large dose of [[Fridge Logic]] attached, usually in two varieties:
* Enemies dropping things that [[No Ontological Inertia|ought not be random at all]] -- such as [[Organ Drops|their organs.]] Every boar should drop a liver, as a boar cannot survive without one. But often, organs will only be randomly dropped. This at least can be [[Hand Wave|Handwaved]] by the idea that it's difficult to get an ''intact'' liver.
* The enemy carries something that shouldn’t be carrying, like weapons or pieces of equipment. When this happens it’s an [[Impossible Item Drop]].
This often results in [[Impossible Item Drop]] and [[Organ Drops]]. Relative of the [[Luck-Based Mission]]. See also [[Money Spider]] and [[Exclusive Enemy Equipment]]. When combined with [[100% Completion]], you could end up with [[Fake Longevity]].
