I don't think this pictures truly explains how many levels of rng hsr equipment has.
1. To farm an equipment set, you have to farm it along with a different set (that you don't need), because the places to farm always have 2 sets. Each round you do in the farm cave, you get 2 pieces of equipment, and it's luck if any of the two are gonna be from the set you want.
2. After you get a piece, it also needs to be 1 of the 4 parts that you want (feet, body, head and gloves). It doesn't matter if you get a perfect piece of hands if you're looking for body.
3. Assuming you get the set you want and the piece you want, body and feet parts have a random main stat, which can be ATK, CRIT, SPD, etc. Usually only one is useful for a character, so you also need to luck and get the right main stat.
4. But just getting the 3 above points is not enough. Equipment also can have 3 or 4 substats. You can level any equipment to +15, and each multiple of 3 gives a random boost to a substat, but an equipment only has 3 substats, the first boost instead gives a new substat. That means you also need to get lucky and get 4 substat piece.
5. BUT AGAIN, which substats you get is random. There is a giant pool of substats, the vast majority are completely worthless, and the few good ones are rare, and most characters only benefit from like 2 or 3 substats. So not only an equipment piece needs to meet the above criteria, it also needs to have the right substats. A piece with 2 useful substats is considered decent.
6. BUT IT'S STILL NOT OVER. Like I said before, each multiple of 3 gives a boost to a random substat. So you also need to get the boosts to the substat you want. So there's a chance you level a piece of equipment that has 3 good substats, but all boosts go to the one substat that is useless. This happens very often.
Nioh is nowhere NEAR as bad as a real gacha.
