Bennett Guide

Bennett is a Pyro Sword Character that specializes as a Support.

Overview

Bennett has been discovered by the community to be THE BEST ATTACK BUFFER IN THE GAME, alongside his low cooldown abilities and Pyro application.

Elemental Skill: Passion Overload

Press A single, swift flame strike that deals Pyro DMG. Hold (Short) Charges up, resulting in different effects when unleashed based on the Charge level.
Level 1: Strikes twice, dealing Pyro DMG and launching opponents.
Level 2: Unleashes 3 consecutive attacks that deal impressive Pyro DMG, but the last attack triggers an explosion that launches both Bennett and the enemy.

This skill is very useful for throwing out quick Pyro damage and generating energy for other characters. However, the hold version is almost never used. Bennett’s Hold Skill can also be used to guarantee 3 Pyro particles instead of 2, which can be useful if a little extra Energy is necessary for the scenario. Otherwise, it is almost always better to use Tap E.


Elemental Burst: Fantastic Voyage

Bennett performs a jumping attack that deals Pyro DMG, creating an Inspiration Field. If the health of a character within the AoE of the Inspiration Field is equal to or falls below 70%, their health will continuously regenerate. The amount of HP restored scales off Bennett’s Max HP. If the health of a character within the AoE is higher than 70%, they gain an ATK Bonus that is based on Bennett’s ATK. Imbues characters within the AoE with Pyro.

This Talent is Bennett’s bread and butter, and what makes him an amazing unit all around. It allows Bennett to provide a massive Flat ATK buff to any active character standing in the field created by his Burst, all while healing and potentially cleansing them due to Pyro self-application overwriting a different element. The ATK buff from his Elemental Burst scales with Bennett’s base ATK, which is constituted of his natural ATK, and the ATK value on the weapon. ATK%/ATK, or his total ATK does not affect it, meaning weapons with higher base ATK have more value on Bennett than ones with lower base ATK but more ATK%. Although Bennett’s heal caps at 70% of the active character’s HP, he remains a valued healer that allows you to facetank the majority of content in the game.

Constellations

C1: Grand Expectation

Bennett’s best Constellation. It removes the health cap on his ATK buff and adds 20% of his Base ATK to the final ATK.

C2: Impasse Conqueror

A useless constellation, unless your Bennett is unable to heal himself.

C3: Unstoppable Fervor

+3 to his Skill. Direct damage increase. Good for energy generation, but not much else.

C4: Unexpected Odyssey

Another useless constellation, unless you'd like to spam Hold E.

C5: True Explorer

+3 to his Burst. Amazing damage and buffing increase.

C6: Fire Ventures with Me

A controversial constellation. This can completely ruin a comp, but it can make others ten times better. Be careful with activating this.


Teams

Bennett works well on teams with another Pyro, but is very good on all sorts of teams. He's a very valuable unit, so these will be without C6 to allow for more flexibility.
