Hello, so for the longest time our Darker Than Black profiles have been, well poor to put it lightly. Currently Hei is rated a 9-A despite having feats that are vastly above that, and a lot of context behind his abilities is missing, and with today's CRT I'll plan on rectifying all of this, but be warned the changes I'm going to propose here are massive, absolutely massive in nature however I'll elaborate upon this more.
The Calculations
Alright so let's get right into the good stuff here, so previously Hei had no Calculations on his profile and instead was just filled with random stats without any real form of citation. But fortunately for us, a hard working Calculation group member (Serious shout-out to DragonGamerZ913 for the help, without him calculating the important feats the verse would be stuck in it's current state.) so now we have two calculations to use, one is a clash between Hei and Harvest and Hei nuking a large section of South America, with the former having a yield of 6-B+ (54 Teratons.) and the latter having a yield of 5-A. (199.6 yottatons.)
Unfortunately Harvest doesn't have a profile at the moment in time but I plan on changing that.
Yes I know these are major changes due to Hei's current stats and I'll explain below as to why it's not an outlier of any sorts.
Is it an outlier?
As I said above, these feats provide for a pretty big jump in ratings, a 9-A going to 6-B+ to 5-A with the Meteor Fragment might seem like an outlier at first glance but I disagree entirely.
Firstly, 9-A is a temporary rating for Hei, as that was only implemented for the sake of a placeholder since it was better than a random 9-C that came out of nowhere, my point being that both of these ratings server no real purpose to gauge Hei's actual strength, his direct feats place him many times above these previous ratings and I'm honestly not sure why he was ever 9-C to begin with so this shouldn't be used to discredit him getting a rightful upgrade.
"Okay so that doesn't change the fact that these feats still make for a big jump therefore it's an outlier."
Nay, I disagree entirely the term outlier is thrown around here a lot despite that rarely ever being applicable expect for extreme cases, and said extreme cases are very rare here. Prime examples are Nasuverse characters going from tier 5 to tier 2 and above without being dismissed as an outlier, Devil May Cry characters went from 6-C, to 4-C all the way to 2-C, last but certainly not least Bleach went from 5-B to tier 3 up to low 2-C. All of these are massive jumps, but none of them were labeled as "outlier." despite having jumps of an infinite difference, you might argue that is a "whataboutism." but again I must disagree as this sets an example of what can and can't be considered as an outlier, especially if the basis of this being an outlier is based upon argument from Disbelief or Argument from Incredulity.
Hei is also stated to be one of the strongest Contractors so his feats aren't scalable to other people as he's explicitly one of the god tiers of the verse.
And in a case like this, where the character was given random stats out of the blue and now has Calculations to justify his ratings I'd argue the outlier argument is very much inapplicable here. Even with his 5-A feat, that was done with something that amplifies the abilities of Contractors to an unimaginable degree so this wouldn't scale to his base stats of course.
Proof of Sub-Atomic destruction
Now we go into the second part, that being Sub-atomic destruction. In these feats it involves two characters who can manipulate Electrons (which are smaller than atoms, they're actually Macro Quantum in nature but we don't have a formula for such a thing.) one being able to manipulate them directly and the other being able to deconstruct objects on that level, and its directly stated that Hei's electricity alters any substance on a quantum level. We also explicitly see the ground around them, iron structures and even humans being completely destroyed.
TLDR; Hei is in need of some serious upgrades.
