Choosing #Guides & Walkthroughs on the HoYoLab

Primogem rewards are certainly a good incentive to get players to start writing guides. If one is interested in making their own guide, they need to remember the following:

1. Submitted guides must be useful for the community. Players have to include a minimum of five pictures in every guide.
2. The guide must have a title that fits its content. Players have to ensure there are no factual errors.
3. Players are allowed to include GIFs or videos, and it will also improve the players' rating.
4. If players add a video in their guide that's more than three minutes long, they are no longer required to attach pictures. In the video, include "This contributes to the Guide Contest of HoYoLAB. Post link:..." in the intro.
5. Players are allowed to contribute more than one guide. Keep in mind that every UID can only receive one reward.
6. Players must not plagiarize. If plagiarism is found, the submitted guide will be deleted immediately. Such players will be permanently banned from future events. Moreover, players are also forbidden from using already published fan art.
7. Players must comply with the forum community rules.

Those who are confident in making high-quality guides are highly encouraged to participate in the contest for a chance to win a bunch of prizes.
