So the reason the RNGoddess was originally named "Snowflake" is that the equips were supposed to be more or less unique, since the RNG can have 2^32 possible seeds. But due to the birthday paradox, there will inevitably be collisions of sorts when enough equips have been generated.
With the same parameters, the odds of getting the same seed twice at least one time is 50% with about 80000 runs.
Interesting, I mean snowflakes that are created in a lab environment can actually be made nearly identical so technically the birthday paradox doesn't go against the name^^
I'm still trying to roughly figure out tho how rare it is to come across twin equips, especially legendary ones. I mean I could start by calculating the number of collisions for the 300m equips that were generated so far like so [
