Bennett is a 4-star Pyro character that wields a Sword in Genshin Impact. His gameplay focuses on being one of the best support characters in the game, offering healing and an attack buff through his Elemental Burst. His Elemental Skill, "Passion Overload," can be tapped or held to unleash Pyro strikes that deal AoE damage and may knock Bennett back at higher charge levels. His Elemental Burst, "Fantastic Voyage," creates an Inspiration Field that heals allies and provides a massive ATK bonus to characters within it if their HP is above 70%. Lore-wise, Bennett is the only remaining member of "Benny's Adventure Team" in Mondstadt, a passionate yet unlucky adventurer whose optimism and selflessness have earned him widespread affection despite his constant misfortune.

What Kind of Character is Bennett?

Bennett is an Off-Field Pyro Support whose Elemental Burst both heals the active character and also providing a generous attack buff, provided the character remains in his Burst field. His buff is highly desired by most attack-scaling On-Field DPSes, and this naturally makes him fit into multiple teams as a result.

Bennett is among the most meta 4-star supports since the game's release, and it's easy to see why. Very few supports give as much attack as he does, and even then, end-game content favoring multiple teams ensures that Bennett will always have a place regardless.

Roles & Playstyle of Bennett and His Strengths and Weakness

Off-Field Support Bennett

Bennett is a support character that can consolidate sustain and buffing. He works well alongside most DPSes and Sub-DPSes that appreciate having more attack, such as most Pyro DPS characters.

Pros and Cons of Off-Field Support Bennett

Pros
- Easy to play.
- Sizeable attack buff that is sought after by a lot of meta damage dealers.
- Acts as a sustain and a buffing unit in one, which is considerably high value for a support.
- Can generate Energy for Pyro characters with high burst costs.
Cons
- Attack buff and healing is constrained to his Elemental Burst field.
- Elemental Burst field is stationary, which makes it slightly hard to use against mobile enemies.
- Healing is capped to 70% of the active character's Max HP only.
- Elemental Burst field applies Pyro to the active character. This can be lethal into enemies that use Hydro or Cryo Elements since they can one-shot your active character by triggering the Melt or Vape reaction.

Best Build for Bennett

A support like Bennett can gain even more value by equipping him with a build that enhances his base utility while also adding more to it via the Artifact set's passive. See below for the recommendations:

Stat Goals For Off-Field Support Bennett

Energy Recharge	180-220%~ with another Pyro teammate160-190%%~ with 2 other Pyro teammate 195-260%~ as the only Pyro character
Max HP	Around 30,000

Bennet's Elemental Burst is his most important ability, so having enough Energy Recharge (ER) to be able to use it every rotation is highly recommended. Because of it's high energy cost, you want to prioritize getting Bennett's ER stat reasonably close to the recommended values, which is doable with ER% on his Artifacts and having a weapon with an ER secondary stat. After this, increasing his HP can be the second focus.

It's important to note that Bennett's attack buff only scales with his base attack. This means the only attack value that matters to Bennett is from his weapon. Always opt for Energy Recharge (especially for Sands) or HP% Artifacts and stats since ATK% or Flat ATK will not increase his buff potency.

Best Weapon for Bennett

Bennett appreciates any weapon with high base attack value, but a weapon helping him reach his Energy requirements is a strong option. See below for the recommendations:

Premium Weapons for Off-Field Support Bennett

Weapon	How to GetRating
Best	Skyward Blade	Get from Banners- High base attack stat further increases the amount of attack received from Bennett's buff. - Energy Recharge secondary stat makes it easier to reach his Energy requirements. - Passive is usable but isn't really impactful overall.
2nd	Mistsplitter ReforgedAzurelightAbsolution	Get from Limited Banners- Limited 5-star swords with the highest base attack values available (674). - The offensive passives are good if you've invested enough into Bennett's Artifacts that they have CRIT, so his ability hits actually deal damage. - These swords are an option if you can reach Bennett's ER requirements through his Artifacts. Otherwise it'd be better to use Energy Recharge swords.
3rd	Aquila Favonia	Get from Banners- Non-limited 5-star sword with the highest base attack value available (674). - Passive and secondary stat are mostly useless on Bennett as a support, so this weapon is primarily taken only for the base attack stat. - Requires Bennett to have a lot of ER on his Artifacts to compensate.
4th	Freedom-Sworn	Get from Limited Banners - Relatively high base attack value. - Best weapon in terms of buffing value in teams where he can reliablly trigger 2 elemental reactions in one rotation. - Getting Bennett to trigger 2 reactions may be awkward to pull off most of the time, so the weapon's ranking is lower in comparison to other options. - Supplement Bennett's Energy needs with high ER stats on his Artifacts.
5th	Peak Patrol Song	Get from Limited Banners - A good buffing weapon if you can manage to have a lot of DEF% rolls on Bennett's Artifacts. - Needs Bennett to do two Normal Attacks first to stack the passive. - Less base attack lowers the ranking a bit, but the utility of this weapon's passive can be enough to compensate for it. - Look for high ER stats on his Artifacts with this equipped.
6th	The Alley Flash	Get from Limited Banners - Highest base attack among the 4-star swords. - Passive and secondary stat aren't really useful for typical supportive Bennett.
7th	Favonius Sword	Get from Banners - Energy Recharge secondary stat can help Bennett reach his Energy requirements. - Low base attack value decreases the potency of his attack buff. - Viable option if his other teammates require a lot of Energy and can benefit from the weapon's passive. - Aim for at least 80% CRIT Rate on Bennett to reliably trigger the passive.

For ease of play, the Skyward Blade will normally be the best option for Bennett due to the Energy Recharge (ER) secondary stat. This enables him to reach his Energy stat-goal without too much reliance on Artifacts. The other weapons with higher base attack can become better options over the Skyward Blade if your Artifacts can supply enough ER already.

Free To Play Friendly (F2P Weapons) for Off-Field Support Bennett

Weapon	How to GetRating
Best F2P	Sapwood Blade	Sumeru Forgeable (Craftable) Weapon - Craftable 4-star sword with high base attack. - Has an Energy Recharge secondary stat, making it Bennett's best free-to-play option. - If passive is met and the active character manages to pick up the Leaf, the free Elemental Mastery given can prove incredibly useful in teams that could use it. - Best at R5. - Requires you to finish certain Sumeru World Quests to get the crafting recipe.
2nd F2P	Prototype Rancour	Mondstadt Forgeable (Craftable) Weapon -Decent base attack. - Passive and secondary stat aren't exactly the best for Support Bennett. - No Energy Recharge given so you need to have compensate through Bennett's Artifacts. - Good for newer Travelers until you can get Sapwood Blade, since you get 1 free from reaching Adventure Rank 10 - You don't need to refine this weapon if you're going to use it for Bennett.

For Free-to-Play options, The Sapwood Blade gives Bennett a lot of things that he wants in a weapon. It has relatively good base attack for a 4-star weapon, an Energy Recharge secondary stat, and a utility or buffing passive as further bonus. Prototype Rancour can be his temporary weapon until you're able to get him the Sapwood Blade.

Bennett Best Artifacts

Bennett's best Artifacts choices are supportive in nature, often allowing Bennett to provide another buff for the party or the active character. See the recommendations below:

Artifact	RecommendationDetails
Noblesse Oblige	★★★★★- Bennett's most popular Artifact choice for DPSes that care about attack. - Increases party ATK% after he uses Elemental Burst.- Further enhances his effectiveness as an attack-buffer. - A little less useful for DPSes that scale with other stats like HP% or DEF.
Instructor	★★★★・- If another character is holding the Noblesse set, Bennett can equip this instead.- Gives additional Elemental Mastery to all party members after Bennett triggers an elemental reaction. - Good for teams that care about Elemental Mastery, such as in comps that rely on the Vape or Melt reactions.
Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City	★★★・・- Despite having no Nightsoul Blessing state, Bennett can still give party members a 12% Elemental DMG bonus to their respective element types by triggering a reaction.- Bennett should trigger a reaction that involves the element of the On-Field DPS for them to get the set buff. - When in a party with a Natlan character, triggering their Nightsoul Burst activates the 2-piece effect for Bennett, letting him benefit from the energy.- This set doesn't stack, so only 1 member of the party can equip it.

Focus on Bennett's Energy Recharge

Bennett's Burst energy cost is noticeably on the higher end, and because most teams want him to use it every rotation, meeting his Energy requirements is going to be the priority when arranging his Artifact set. Having an Energy Recharge sands is highly recommended. Because ATK% doesn't impact Bennett's buff, the next stats you can try working on are HP% for stronger heals.

Best Team Comp Bennett

Premium Mavuika Melt Team

Support	DPS	Support	Support
Bennett	Mavuika	Citlali	Xilonen
Details
- Bennett provides a substantial ATK% buff that Mavuika greatly benefits from, while also activating Pyro Resonance.- Mavuika is a meta On-Field DPS that scales well with Bennett's attack boost. - Citlali and Xilonen are the supplemental supports of this comp, with Citlali primarily being the source of Cryo for Mavuika to trigger Melt, and Xilonen shredding Elemental RES (Citlali also further shredding Pyro).

Mavuika's most popular team typically will include Bennett in the last slot as a buffer and sustain alongside Xilonen and Citlali. This team is among the strongest comps damage-wise as of the current meta due to Mavuika's high ability scaling that is further increased by the amount of buffs she gets from all three of the supports. Because Bennett provides so much attack, especially with Noblesse Oblige, it's generally better to equip Mavuika with a CRIT-based weapon to balance it out.

Team Rotation of Bennett and Combos

Basic Team Rotation for Off-Field Support Bennett

Basic Rotation For Off-Field Support Bennett
1. Start with the other supports. If you have a DPS that needs to use an ability at the start of the rotation, like Arlecchino, then start the rotation with them instead..2. Switch to Bennett then use his Elemental Skill (tap) into Elemental Burst. If he needs to battery someone like Xiangling, you can instead do Elemental Burst then Elemental Skill (tap). 3. Swap into your main On-Field DPS to perform their combo. If you need to refresh as part of the rotation, do so. 4. Return to Step 1.

Basic Rotation For Off-Field Support Bennett

1. Start with the other supports. If you have a DPS that needs to use an ability at the start of the rotation, like Arlecchino, then start the rotation with them instead..2. Switch to Bennett then use his Elemental Skill (tap) into Elemental Burst. If he needs to battery someone like Xiangling, you can instead do Elemental Burst then Elemental Skill (tap). 3. Swap into your main On-Field DPS to perform their combo. If you need to refresh as part of the rotation, do so. 4. Return to Step 1.

As a support, Bennett's combo is straightforward, involving the usage of his Skill and Burst. Bennett will usually want to catch the particles generated by his Elemental Skill in order to charge his Elemental Burst in preparation for the next rotation. While you continue your combo on the On-Field DPS, it's best to be aware of the location of Bennett's field so you can readily make your way back to if you end up straying too far.

Ideally, you'd time the rotation correctly to be able to deploy Bennett's field just before a boss enters its weakened state (if it has one) or after it uses a key mobility move that'll reposition itself far away from your current location. This is to ensure you don't waste Bennett's Elemental Burst by placing it too early or too late.

Basics Of Using Bennett

Bennett is designed to be an Off-Field Pyro Support best known for his Elemental Burst that provides both strong healing and a generous attack buff. He is among the top meta buffing units because of the amount of ATK% he gives from his Burst alone, which makes Bennett a staple support in a lot of teams.

Active Character Needs to Stay in His Burst Field

So long as the active character remains within the circular field generated by his Elemental Burst, they will continuously restore HP (up to 70% of their max HP) while also benefiting from his signature attack buff. These effects disappear when the active character leaves the field, which is Bennett's biggest weakness, since in most cases it requires you to play around his field if you want to maximize the duration of the buff on your DPS.

Elemental Skill Can Be Used to Generate Energy

When Bennett is the On-Field character within his Burst field, his Elemental Skill cooldown is significantly reduced. This allows Bennett to act as an efficient Energy Particle battery for Pyro characters with high Energy costs on their Elemental Burst, since his Skill can rapidly generate Energy thanks to the lowered cooldown. Some examples of this fact in practice is when he's paired with Xiangling, who appreciates getting her Burst as soon as possible.

Pyro Support With an Attack Boost and Healing

Basic Rotation Of Bennett
1. Start with other supports, then use their Elemental Skills or Bursts. 2. Swap to Bennett then use his Elemental Skill, dash to cancel the animation, then activate his Elemental Burst.3. Switch to your On-Field DPS to do their combo. Refresh key abilities if its part of the team's regular rotation.4. Return to step 1.

Bennett's main gameplay loop follows the typical combo of a lot of Elemental Burst-based supports where you start with the Skill before using the Burst. This combo normally lets you catch the particles created by his Elemental Skill while his Burst animation plays out, which will be helpful for the next rotation.

Elemental Burst Is His Most Important Ability

Bennett's healing and attack buff are tied to his Elemental Burst. While the strength of his heals is very clear, Bennett can only restore up to 70% of the active character's max HP when they are within his Inspiration Field. Additionally, at C0, the attack buff only applies if the active character is above 70% HP.

All the effects of Bennett's Elemental Burst is constrained to the radius of the Inspiration Field. and only for the active character. Leaving the field disperses these effects.

Furthermore, staying within the field also imbues the character with the Pyro Element. This can be dangerous against certain enemies with strong attacks that can react to the Pyro to trigger a reaction against the active character, such as the Maguu Kenki.

Attack Buff Isn’t Affected by ATK% Stats

Bennett's attack buff only accounts for his base attack value, which involves his natural attack stat without anything equipped and the total attack of his weapon. This means any ATK% Artifact will not increase the amount of attack that Bennett provides, so prioritizing Energy Recharge (ER) on his Artifacts is going to be the more impactful course of action overall, since a higher ER stat will help Bennett charge his Burst a lot faster.

Use Elemental Skill to Generate Energy

Apart from dealing damage, Bennett’s Elemental Skill also generates Pyro particles, which serve as his main source of Energy outside of what teammates provide. Be sure he absorbs the particles after casting, though if he’s paired with another Pyro character with a costly Burst, such as Xiangling, you can swap into them instead to funnel the Energy their way.

Passives Reduce the Cooldown of His Skill

Passives Descriptions
Rekindle	Decreases Passion Overload's CD by 20%.
Fearnaught	Within the area created by Fantastic Voyage, Passion Overload takes on the following effects:

Both of Bennett's Ascension passives help reduce the cooldown of his Elemental Skill. His Fearnaught passive turns him into an effective battery for Energy-hungry damage characters like Xiangling since he can rapidly produce Energy while inside his Burst field.

Pairs Well With Attack-Scaling DPSes

Some Attack-Scaling DPSes
Mavuika	Arlecchino	Lyney	Navia	Kinich

Bennett's attack buff, when combined with the attack buff from Noblesse Oblige, can account for a substantial amount of attack towards the active character. This buff from Bennett's Elemental Burst is obviously best used by the On-Field DPSes that benefit from having a surplus of this stat, more so by the Pyro DPSes who can further benefit from the attack bonus given by Pyro Resonance.

Better With Constellations

Constellation Description
(C1) Grand Expectation	Fantastic Voyage's ATK increase no longer has an HP restriction, and gains an additional 20% of Bennett's Base ATK.

At C0, Bennett's attack buff is only triggered when the active character within the Inspiration Field is above 70%. With C1, the attack buff now applies regardless of their current HP. In addition, his C1 also increases the amount of attack he gives through the buff by 20%. This is his most important Constellation overall, and is worth getting if you find a chance to do so.

Should You Pull for Bennett's Constellation Or Best Weapon?

Bennett's C1 Makes His Attack Buff Stronger

Constellation Priority
C1 > C6 or C5

C1 Is Ideal For a Majority of Teams

Bennett's generous Attack buff is very valuable in a good number of teams where he is the largest source of external Attack. His C1 makes it so that the buff is now unconditional, instead of requiring a character to be above a specific HP% while also further increasing the Attack scaling, which is significant when you consider just how much Attack Bennett gives at his baseline. It is an easy constellation to get since it's his first one, so getting his C1 is highly recommended, either through wishing on banners or through Paimon's Bargain.

Whether you go to C6 is entirely up to preference. Some older teams may not like wanting their autos infused with Pyro, like Eula for example, but most new characters have an infusion that cannot be overriden, so his C6 is still good to have especially for Pyro characters that would like the extra Pyro DMG bonus. Otherwise, if this infusion is a problem for you, then keeping him at C5, where his burst now gains extra levels is also a viable choice.
