♱ anything overtly negative and pessimistic, including sui ideation and/or you having a GENUINE psychotic break or mental breakdown. (i wouldn’t recommend a hotline immediately but if you don’t have a trusted person in you’re circle to talk to they can maybe get you through that moment.)

♱ a demand for a follow4follow type relationship, ‘i’ll reblog your fic ONLY if you’llreblog mine’, any obviously conditional support for example: don’t follow and then once i’ve followed back or reblogged with your posts, unfollow me.

♱ batman being an abusive dad & damien slander, anything having to do with slade or trigon (teen titans trauma, also don’t ask about teen titans go), the ric grayson plot, dc live action movie flash & aquaman (justice league 2004 aquaman is my fav aquaman)

Writer Guidelines

Requirements: Fanfiction must be new, not be posted anywhere beforehand, and ideally created for this event. It must not exist as a published work elsewhere. The fanfiction should be a continuous storyline. Though they can be chaptered works, those chapters must not be disconnected like a collection of unrelated one-shots. What we’re looking for is a coherent, 20,000 words minimum story with a narrative flow.

Ratings and Triggers: Please properly rate your fanfiction. AO3 has a posting tutorial that can help you get an idea of your fic's rating. However, no explicit fics are allowed. We ask you to list any and all triggers contained as well. If you have any questions on this or wonder if a certain aspect would require a trigger warning, please ask the mods!

Aus and Genres: We are allowing all genres and Aus (Alternate Universe settings) so long as they falls under the gen category! We do ask that you give a general explanation of the AU in your summary so that the artists will be able to get a grasp of what they will be drawing from. This is the same for your summary even if you are not writing an au. We will have a form for you to fill out for your submission for your summaries.

As a preview: Summary: AU (if any): Wordcount: Characters: Rating: Triggers/Warnings (if any):

Extensions for Check-ins and Deadlines: We ask you to notify us ASAP if you cannot make the deadline. Please keep in mind the sooner you let us know, the better. In general, we will be allowing 1 week extension if needed for important check-in deadlines.

Misc. Writer FAQ: Q. Are original characters allowed?

Yes, though they should not be a main focus of the fic.

Q. What if I posted a one-shot of my fic somewhere else but I want to turn it into a longer fic for the Big bang?

No, you cannot. This has to be a new idea that hasn’t been posted anywhere.

Q. Will my name/username be given along with my outline to artists/beta readers for claiming?

We will be keeping the usernames out of both claiming periods, so it will be a secret who is writing what. However, if you want to avoid working with a particular artist/beta reader, let us know privately beforehand and we will avoid pairing them with you.

Q. What if the artist I’m working with drops out?

We will do our best to get you a new artist ASAP via our list of Pinch Hitters. Additionally, both mods are going to be labeled as Pinch Hitters. :D

Q. What if nobody chooses my fic at claiming?

There is always a risk of your piece not being chosen, in which we will do our best to assign you a Pinch Hitter. As we stated before, both mods are listed as Pinch Hitters.

However, if for some reason all Pinch Hitters are unable to work on your fanfiction, we will work with you on what to do next.

Artist Guidelines

Artist Requirements: Artists will be required to make two fully rendered pieces by the end of the big bang. To define these, we are asking for fully coloured pieces with clean lineart. The background may be stylized to be simplified for creative liberty. For example, the anime shocked background or a mostly dark background if the characters are in a cave.)

Extra Artwork: Artists are more than welcome to do more than the two required pieces for their story if they are inspired to do so. Artists can also work on different kinds of media (such as a comic or video/animatic) if they wish! Just please let us know if you intend to do this and we can approve it on a case by case basis

Claiming: Artist claiming will happen on March 2nd-March 8th. • Writers will be handing in their outlines on March 1st.

• Each summary will be given a number, much like how beta readers will have in their claiming process. This is to avoid fics being picked solely for their authors. This list will be made available in a google document on March 2nd.

• Your choices will be submitted to us, the mods, by March 8th. If you have anyone you are uncomfortable with, or if any fanfiction has triggers that affect you, let one of us know privately ASAP. We will not be pairing you with them.

• We will sort claims by what your 1st, 2nd, 3rd choice, etc are and go from there. We will randomize it if there are tied claims so everyone has an equal chance to get the fic they’ve chosen. If you do not get one of your top choices, we will ask you for your next top 3, and go from there. We will do our best to match you with one of your top 3 choices, though.

Q. What if I can’t choose what fic I want to draw for? We ask that you pick at least 2 fan fictions you are interested in as your top 2, with your third choice being: Choose for me!/All in!

Q. Can I say which fan fiction I absolutely don’t want? We are going to ask you to refrain from doing that. If there is a fic with a trigger you are affected by, please let us know privately (discord DMs, email, etc.) and we will accommodate.

Misc. Artist FAQ: Q. Can I sign up as a pinch hitter?

Yes, please! Just in case one of the artists has to back out, signing up as a pinch hitter will help us keep on track and make sure no writer goes without accompanying art.

Q. What if a writer drops out?

In that case, the artist will be reassigned to another writer. Let us know and we will work it out with you.

Q. What if I’m not around at claiming time?

You can pick someone you trust to act as your proxy and create your preference list on your behalf. Please just let us know ahead of time.

Have you played HSR!!!

I did get some asks a while back but it's been a while no worries! Just to clarify, I haven't played HSR because I don't have the means. I'm a console person + PS4 user (which is how I play genshin). I don't have a PS5, I don't have a PC capable of running games, and there's no way my phone can fit it storage-wise (and I prefer to avoid mobile games unless there's no other platform available anyway).

I want to get the PS5 eventually, so I would then. Not sure why they didn't make it available for PS4.

I'm also working to update my page for an FAQ list of things I haven't played/seen since I get a lot of questions on it, I'll link that when its done.

[b1adie]

Hi there Adri, I hope you have a good day!

So I saw that total cutie Blade on tiktok and looked up his lore on Wikipedia but it's completely confusing to me, I know basics of hsr lore like mara or aeons cause my roommate rambles about it 24/7 but I don't play this game yet and roommate doesn't care about Blade so they ignore all his voicelines etc...

Came to tumblr to find out more and I saw your blog in tag + in your faq you stated you don't mind lore questions...

So please ignore it if you don't want to answear but could you explain to me Blade's lore more or less?

I'm so sorry if I came out as pushy, I know it's probably a complicated lore and a lot to write about but even watching cutscenes on yt didn't make anything clearer while I feel like this guy could make me play hsr... Sorry for anon, I'm a bit shy.

no prob, i’ll try and explain his story as simply as possible!! and.. add a tldr cuz i know im gonna yap

im sorry the tldr got long too. here.

TLDR was TL, DR: craftsman/blacksmith human named yingxing that became cursed with immortality while participating in a fucked up resurrection ritual for one of his friends. was killed thousands of times til he became mara struck and forgot his past human life. got picked up by the stellaron hunters cuz their leader apparently knows a way to permanently kill him and he wants to die so bad. he didnt know his name but he has a cool sword so they call him bladie. he’s old and he apparently has a valid drivers license and obeys traffic laws but he cant play video games because he keeps stabbing himself in the hand.

iffff you have any further questions you can ask ^_^

TLDR; he was. regular human who was taken to the xianzhou as a child after abominations of abundance destroyed his home world. he picked the name yingxing there. he grew up to be a master craftsman and was incredibly skilled and confident, even considered arrogant. since he was a short life species on a ship of people who would live like 700 years longer than him on avg, they found him lame and annoying, but he was better than all of them at making shit so they had to give him the title of Furnace Master cuz he won it. then at some point he became a member of the high cloud quintet, made up of him and 4 friends (jing yuan, jingliu, dan heng’s past incarnation dan feng, and a foxian girl named baiheng). they fought abominations together and were considered legendary and told about in stories. but, baiheng was killed in battle, and dan feng wanted to revive her. he asked yingxing to help him. the revival went wrong and turned baiheng’s remains into a fucked up beast and also cursed yingxing with immortality. jingliu had to put the baiheng monster down, but she loved baiheng so much and having to be the one to kill her mutated corpse like this drove her to become mara struck. she killed yingxing with the sword he made for her, and then again, and again, killing him thousands of times, until he too became mara struck and forgot his life as yingxing entirely. then the stellaron hunters found his miserable ass in the woods somewhwre and said hey grandpa come with us and we’ll kill you for good. and he was like damn okay if you promise. he didnt know his own name and said he would be more use to them as a weapon than a Person, so kafka started calling him bladie and he didnt object so now he’s called blade. he doesn’t think of that as his name though, he still refers to himself as “the unnamed.” but like, he’ll answer to it out of convenience i guess.

OKAY NOT SHORTENED VERSON.

he was born a regular human on a planet that was soon taken over by the borisin (basically immortal space wolves that brutally kill humans). he was the only survivor of his family and sitll a child. he was taken to the xianzhou zhuming and taken under the wing of their arbiter general, huaiyan. (so like, basically the jing yuan of that ship). he took on the name Yingxing there. he became an apprentice craftsman because the xianzhou is very well known for its forging and craftsmanship. he was always generally overlooked or sneered at due to being a short-life species, which of course meant he could never accomplish as much as any of the long-lived xianzhou people. he was wildly ambitious, though, often described as proud and arrogant, mentioned to have stayed awake for days at a time engrossed in his work. xianzhou natives attempted to sabotage his work by deliberately giving him defective or poor-quality material, but it never held him back. despite all the adversity, he became the Furnace Master, the highest title a craftsman can hold on a xianzhou ship.

when he was still a young kid, he’d met a foxian girl named baiheng. they met again some years later, along with jingliu, the champion swordmaster on the luofu, jing yuan, a young cloud knight and her apprentice, and dan feng, the high elder of the luofu vidyadhada. they all hit it off and became very close friends. yingxing forged special weapons for each of them, and the five fought against the abominations of abundance. they became known as the high cloud quintet.

they had a great time for many years, but the rest of them were all going to outlive him by centuries. they Should have, at least. baiheng was killed in battle, having done so protecting them in some way (distracting the enemy or interrupting them i believe?). dan feng decided they should take her remains along with some cursed abundance flesh and try to resurrect her. he convinced yingxing to join him in his wacky little plan. yingxing was like 70 by then hauling his old ass to go do some scary ritual.

they tried to resurrect her and did bad. instead of baiheng, they created a cursed dragon beast that started wreaking havoc and killing people. jingliu arrived in time to put the beast down. but. she was very, very close with baiheng. like obviously its not outright spoken canon, but they were basically married. so killing the mutated beast made from her wife’s corpse caused her to become mara struck. she killed yingxing as he stood in front of dan feng.

but! due to him fucking with that cursed abundance flesh during the resurrection, he came back to life. (and also got like 40 years younger apparently). jingliu took him with her somewhere and used the sword he made for her to kill him thousands of times, until he too became mara struck and forgot all memories of his life as yingxing.

then she kind of just dumped him in the wilderness somewhere or he escaped and went to the wilderness somewhere. he didnt know his name or anything, just that every part of him was constantly in agonizing pain and he could not die, despite badly wanting to die so the pain would end.

one day while he was out there, kafka and samfly showed up and tried to get him to join the stellaron hunters. he was mara stricken and batshit crazy thought so kafka had to shoot him to death and have samfly hold him down while she used her ability to calm his mara. she told him their leader knew a way to kill him permanently, and would help him reach this goal if he joined them. and he was like oh well in that case sure. she asked him his name, and he said he didn’t have one. (even in his internal monologue, he only ever refers to himself as ‘the unnamed.’) he told her he was more of a weapon than a person, so she was like. ummm.. okay. i’m calling you bladie. and he just let her do that and now everyone calls him blade

HSR FAQ 𖡻 How much CRIT RATE is enough for your DPS?

Answer

High Investment:

Single-hit DPS or low-hit count DPS = at least 80% to 85% crit rate (achievable if you have lightcone that has crit passive or you have good crit rolls in your relic substats); [more than 85% would be on whale territory or hardcore minmax territory already]

Multi-hit count DPS = 70% crit rate

Good enough Investment:

Single-hit DPS or low-hit DPS = 70% crit rate

Multi-hit count DPS = 60% crit rate

Low Investment:

Single-hit DPS or low-hit DPS = 60% crit rate

Multi-hit count DPS = 50% crit rate

Explanation

To start off, I've always wondered why are the results of my damage calculations tend to be low values when compared to the damage calcs done by other people. As you can see from my previous attempts on rubbing my 2 braincells together and dealing with numbers in my Yukong and Pela TLDR builds, the values are pretty low.

I know I've followed the process done in the sample damage calculations provided in the sources, but I simply can't replicate the same big dmg numbers you see in other calcs.

Then one day, while I'm scrolling around in Dr. Ratio Mains subreddit, I've come across a post asking about the ideal crit% for E0S1 Dr. Ratio, and one of the answers there caught my eye. The answer of u/Bajuu mentioned that Dr. Ratio is a low hit count DPS like Seele so that he should be built with at least 80% crit rate.

However, I don't know what "low hit count DPS" means, so I went ahead and searched around in Google and the official HSR subreddit what it means but to no avail, it didn't gave me any answer nor clue, so as a last resort, I asked in a help channel in official HSR Discord server, in which two people (viasvias and skylow1112) have answered my question at last.

They mentioned that low hit means low attack tick per attack. An example for this is that when it comes to Seele ultimate, it only has 1 attack tick, while Jing Yuan's Lightning Lord deals multiple attack ticks.

(Sample images below showing Seele ult showcase from u/solidus_snake256 and Jing Yuan's LL showcase from Nerf1352.)

I asked as well if the number of attack ticks are specified in the trace multipliers or kit of the character, however, they answered that it wasn't mentioned and that it could only be seen in actual gameplay.

This means there's no way for me to know how many attack ticks each unit have by just reading their kit in the game. I have to use them in trial battle first to know how many attack ticks does their kit have when they deal damage.

-

On the day of writing this post, I saw a similar post asking what is the minimum crit rate for Dr. Ratio, and upon checking the comments, the answer made by u/Minute_Fig_3979 also has similar answer above.

They mentioned that there are two types of damage dealers - single hit or low hit count DPS and multi-hit count DPS. However, their answer mentioned more about the recommended crit rate for each type. Low hit count DPS needs higher crit rate in order to make up for their lack of multi-hit, while multi-hit count DPS could settle with lesser crit rate and further invest more into other stats due to their multi-hit nature.

Think of this scenario.

When dealing damage against a single enemy, if your DPS only deals 1 hit count like Seele, you'd want them to at least deal crit hit on this one chance so that all the efforts of setting up the buffs on them and debuffs applied to enemies won't go to waste. By building higher crit rate, this gives you higher chance so that your low hit count DPS could at least crit.

However, when it comes to multi-hit count DPS like Jing Yuan, even if you have lesser crit rate than the low hit count DPS, his Lightning Lord would have more chances of dealing crit hits at the enemy. So instead of hyper-investing crit rate on your Jing Yuan, that you'd need to do with your Seele, you could allocate the relic substat rolls into getting more ATK% and crit dmg for him.

-

Example of low-hit count:

Seele's Ultimate (1 tick)

Dr. Ratio's Skill, Follow-up Attack (FuA), and Ultimate (1 tick each)

4* Danheng Ultimate (1 tick)

Blade's Ultimate (1 tick)

Jingliu's Ultimate (1 tick)

Blade's Talent (3 ticks)

-

Example of multi-hit count:

Jing Yuan's Lightning Lord

Dan Heng - Imbibitor Lunae's 3EBA and Ultimate

Topaz's Skill and FuA Talent

Jingliu's Enhanced Basic Attack

-

The recommended crit rate varies a lot according to who is answering the question. So I'll just create some kind of simplified categorization for the variety of recommendations.

High Investment:

Single-hit DPS or low-hit count DPS = at least 80% to 85% crit rate, achievable if you have lightcone that has crit passive or you have good crit rolls in your relic substats (more than 85% would be on whale territory or hardcore minmax territory already)

Multi-hit count DPS = 70% crit rate

Good enough Investment:

Single-hit DPS or low-hit DPS = 70% crit rate

Multi-hit count DPS = 60% crit rate

Low Investment:

Single-hit DPS or low-hit DPS = 60% crit rate

Multi-hit count DPS = 50% crit rate

-

With the two sources of answer above, I think I now have an idea as to why my earlier dilemma has those small value results.

Calcs made by other people have considered multiple factors affecting their calculations.

having team mates in the calc

calculating the team dmg output in rotation-based setup

having considered the speed and action value of teammates that would affect the SPD and AV of the character you are calculating

(probably, not sure) considering the number of attack ticks of units in actual gameplay in the calculations.

These are just some of the reasons as to why my calcs from before are on the lower side, but it doesn't mean that my calcs are wrong. I just happened to consider only the most basic dmg conditions compared to them using complex dmg conditions in their theorycrafting, hence the results I got are low values only.

01/16/2024 - Added a scenario that describes the difference between low-hit count DPS and multi-hit count DPS

[gnostichymns]

hii since tingyun's alt has been drip marketed & tingyun is a preexisting character would those wanting to write fugue have to wait a week before apping her?

Hello!

At present, Tingyun falls under our dead characters clause, which is as follows:

Dead characters, as long as they meet the above NPC requirements, are allowed. Justification for how they are alive is left to the mun, and creativity is encouraged. In order to be considered dead, a character must remain that way for at least one full story update. This may be handled on a case-by-case basis when concerned with currently updating/incomplete storylines.

She is presently appable as Tingyun under this clause, and will not have a unique availability date per the release of Fugue, however a mun apping her in this interim period would be expected to accommodate to the narrative changes upon Fugue's appearance in story as it comes. Anyone applying for her after these changes will, similarly, be expected to write for her as Fugue.

Hopefully that answers your question, if you need further explanation please do not hesitate to let us know!

Will there be extensions?

We will be allowing a 1 week extension for those who need it for Check-Ins. Reminder to let the mods know before the deadline ASAP if you need an extension for smooth sailing!

Is AI allowed?

AI is forbidden for everyone. We do not believe in generative AI and do not believe in it as an art form or ethical practice. There will be plenty of opportunities to talk to other people (especially your beta reader) about how to make your work better. We aren’t looking for masterpieces, we just want your best genuine effort.

If caught using generative AI or AI art, you will be removed from the big bang.

Grammar checkers (such as Grammarly) are okay but any generative AI functions/writing assistants in the program must be disabled.

Are other media forms allowed?

We want to see everyone get creative in their own way with other media (animatics, comics, edits, etc). We want to say yes, but they could pose difficulties. Therefore, we will approve alternate media on a case by case situation. It just needs to be YOUR work.

Does the Fanfic need to be a new one?

Yes. Anything that has already been posted publicly on the internet is a No-Go, this includes WIPs. Since we have Beta readers and artists coming in as well, we highly encourage you to start a brand new fanfic for this project.

Does it have to be shipped?

As long as Aventurine and Ratio are the main characters, platonic, in between, or romantic are all on the table!

Are side-ships allowed?

They can be present, but they are not allowed to be the main focus of the fic.

Are AUs allowed?

Yes!! We would love to see them!

Are OCs allowed?

Yes, granted, as they aren’t the main focus of the fanfiction. They can appear as minor characters/have minor roles. Please keep the main focus on the Canonical characters.

What Genres are allowed? 

Any kind is allowed!

Can we try to match ourselves up preemptively?

Please keep in mind that no artist/writer match is guaranteed, and while we understand having a friend you know is nice, we highly encourage you to try to work with others. If you end up with your friend by pure accident then that’s just how it goes!

Is NSFW content allowed?

No. We will not be allowing explicit NSFW of any kind in this round. However…

Can we make mature works?

We will be allowing mature stories with mature subjects and will allow for references to mature themes and can fade to blacks, gore, etc. However, if it is tagged mature, you must be 18+ to write/draw/beta-read the work. Furthermore, we ask you to crop or sensor these subjects when posting previews in order to keep it safe for everyone.

Do we need tumblr in order to join this event?

No, you do not! However, we do require all participants to have discord for easy communication. We would like all writers to have an A03 account so all fics can be collected in one event. Finally, we ask artists to have some platform of art. If artists do not have a platform, we will do our best to make arrangements.

FAQ:

Are requests open?

Yes they are open! And if you feel like just talking, that’s totally cool! I’d love to hear from you :)

What are your restrictions for writing?

I don’t have many restrictions actually, so feel free to ask! Don’t be discouraged, my dear! I write sfw/nsfw, AU’s, angst, and fluff stories and am happy to do so, though if there are any requests that make me uncomfortable or I decide not to write about them, I will either reply privately or just delete the request :) However, that being said, I do only write for female readers x male characters because it's the only thing I’m good at. It’s in my comfort zone and the last thing I would want to do is attempt something I am not qualified for, only for it to hurt/disrespect someone else.

How to Request?

Please send your requests in through my ask section. This will be easier for me to see rather than requesting through my comments section. Please be as detailed as you want so I can make sure the story is to your expectations. Again, I will only do requests from people who are above 18 <3

How to be added to/removed from a Tag List?

To be added, you have to be above the age of 18 (Sorry for repeating myself on this, I just want to make it clear that I will only interact with adults, not minors) You can be added to a tag list by sending an ask! Just let me know what taglist(s) you would like to be added to and I’ll get that done ASAP! I’ll then respond to those requests to let you know when you have been added. Please also let me know what @username you would like for me to use so I can make sure to use the correct one. If you want to change the account associated with the taglist(s), just let me know and I’ll update the tag list so you can get notifications on any account you want :) Please also explicitly state if you would like to be added to the tag list. The same goes for if you’d like to be removed from taglists!

Who am I? (Not really an FAQ, but just thought I’d add this for anybody who cares, Lmao)

I am currently a college student and planning to work in the medical field. I will be very busy with all my classes and hopefully a new job in the hospital…this means that once school starts, I might be a little slower in writing, but I will still write. I also promise not to delete this account this time, haha. Writing helps keep me inspired and creative, which is something I never want to lose, especially with how life is sometimes. Once this starts, I just kindly ask to be patient with me as it might take me a while to get writing. 

What fandoms have you written for?

I have written for Genshin, HSR, Spyxfamily, Black Clover, Fairy Tail, MK11, Diabolik Lovers, Black Butler, Marvel, BNHA, Howl's Moving Castle, Harry Potter, etc. If none of these are to your interest, please still ask me and I will do research if I don’t know the fandom. That’s how I used to do all my writing when I was younger for characters I didn’t know about. It was actually fun too! I also have watched many different anime/games that I just haven’t written about. <3

Any other rules?

I do write nsfw so please, if you are under the age of 18, DO NOT read those. I put those warnings in the stories and any other story that might have some suggestive/adult content, so please respect my boundaries. If you read my sfw, that’s alright, but please don’t interact with me nor my nsfw stories if you are underage. Nothing against you, I just feel uncomfortable interacting with people younger than 18. Please also be kind to one another. I believe that no matter what, we should all respect each other!

If you still have questions after this, please let me know and I will get back to you ASAP! Love you!!

[cyuttea]

i love hsr but like... with all anime games i feel like there's not much emotional depth . like there IS but much isn't shown, like bronya basically being fine after losing her mother figure and that green girl not giving a faq when tingyun, her friend of years, died ,,, she just SAID she was sad but didn't think about it
