Bennett Best Weapon

Weapon With High Best Attack Is The Priority For Bennett

The buff of Bennett from Elemental Burst only calculates the Base ATK of Weapon + Character. Because of it, selecting a weapon with high Base ATK is needed over the effect of the weapon. For Ranking and Comparison of weapons for Bennett, check the list below:

Weapon Comparison & Ranking For Support Healer Bennett

	Weapon	Details
Best	Aquila Favonia	Physical DMG Bonus 41.3% (Lvl. 90) - One of the highest Base ATK for Swords, good to increase Bennett's ATK buff - Provides survivability for Bennett through Weapon Skill
2nd	Mistsplitter Reforged	CRIT DMG 44.1% (Lvl. 90) - Increases Elemental DMG Bonus, benefits multi-elemental comps - High Base ATK increases Burst's ATK buff. - Also a decent option for DPS Bennett.
3rd	Skyward Blade	Energy Recharge 55.1% (Lvl. 90) - High Base ATK will increase Bennett's ATK Buff and Energy Sub-stat will increase Burst uptime.
4th	The Alley Flash	Elemental Mastery 55 (Lvl. 90) - Highest Base ATK for 4-Star Weapons. - Passive does not help much with Bennett.
5th	Sapwood Blade	Energy Recharge 30.6% (Lvl. 90) - While the effect is situational, it gives valuable Energy Recharge and decent Base ATK for a 4 star sword. - Best F2P option for Bennett.
6th (F2P)	Festering Desire	Energy Recharge 45.9% (Lvl. 90) - Free to Play option - Energy Recharge increases uptime for Burst - Provides additional Skill DMG - Cannot be acquired currently
7th (F2P)	Favonius Sword	Energy Recharge 61.3% (Lvl. 90) - Increases uptime for Burst due to ER Sub-stat and Weapon Skill

Energy Recharge Is The Main Focus Outside Base ATK

Energy Recharge will allow Bennett to continuously use his Elemental Burst. Although HP will benefit his healing, it's recommended to build HP through his Artifacts instead of his weapon. Since most of the use of Bennett is in Elemental Burst, selecting a weapon with high Base ATK and Energy Recharge is advantageous for Bennett.

Which Sands To Use Should Depend On Weapon

If you're using an Energy Recharge weapon, go ATK on your Sands, but if you're using a DPS-focused weapon, go ER instead. You also need to adjust this since Bennett is recommended to have at least 180% ER.

CR/CD Can Just Be 50/100

There's no need to build CR/CD beyond 50/100. Once you reach this value, you can focus on either ER, HP%, or EM. It's a Hybrid build so just getting the minimum CR/CD is okay.

Adjust Sands Depending On Current ER

If you're ER falls below 180%, use an ER Sands for Bennett. But if he's using a weapon that solves the ER problem, go full triple HP for his artifacts.

Build HP For Higher Healing

Since Bennett's healing scales off HP, building triple HP directly increases the amount of healing you will get per tic. This also makes Bennett a tank with such a high HP.

Bennett Skill Guide & How To Use Bennett

Recommended Rotation For Bennett

Recommended Bennett Rotation
1	Use Bennett's Elemental Skill to farm for energy
2	Switch to Main DPS while waiting for Skill cooldown
3	Repeat 1 & 2 until you get full Burst energy
4	Use Elemental Burst & Switch to main DPS/Sub-DPS

Uses Of Bennett's Elemental Skill

Tap Or Hold For Energy Gathering

Benett's Skill can either be tapped to deal a single strike or held to unleash a 3-hit attack. Both will yield the same amount of energy for him. If you just want to gather energy, it's better to just tap.

Hold Will Unleash 3-Hit Pyro Attack

Holding down on your E will have Bennett charge and unleash a 3-hit Pyro attack. There's a drawback to this because depending on your luck, you can be knocked back by the explosion of Bennett's final hit.

Uses Of Bennett's Elemental Burst

Deals Pyro Damage

The moment Bennett uses his Burst, he will deal a single instance of Pyro damage. Enemies staying on the field of his Burst will not receive any additional Pyro damage by standing in it.

Heals Allies Within Its Vicinity & Inflict Pyro To Self

Bennett's Burst will heal allies up to 70% of their health when they stand within its circle. Healing will come in quick tics until the maximum health is capped. While standing on the Elemental Burst, it will also apply a Pyro aura on the character that you are using, making it great for cleansing off elements.

Also Provides A Damage Boost

If you have enough constellation, you can get Bennett to also provide a good chunk of attack boost with his burst. Both healing and the boost will apply to allies within the field.

Damage Scales From Bennett's Base Attack + The Base Attack Of Weapon

An amazing thing about Bennett is that he is not artifact reliant. His buff, is taken from his Base ATK and weapon's Base ATK. It is advantageous to level Bennett to 90 because of this .

Bennett Wish & Constellation Guide

Should You Get Or Wish For Bennett?

One Of The Must-Have Characters

Bennett is a must-have character due to his overall kit that can both buff and heal allies, and his versatility when it comes to team comps. He's reliable as a support and healer, and can even provide a bit of DMG with the right build.

Best Constellation For Bennett

Rating	Constellation Effect
★★★★★	C1: Grand Expectations Fantastic Voyage's ATK increase no longer has an HP restrictions, and gains an additional 20% of Bennett's Base ATK.
★★・・・	C2: Impasse Conqueror When Bennett's HP falls below 70%, his Energy Recharge is increased by 30%.
★★・・・	C3: Unstoppable Fervor Increases the Level of Passion Overload by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
★・・・・	C4: Unexpected Odyssey Using a Normal Attack as the second attack of Passion Overload's Charge Level 1 will perform a follow-up attack. This additional attack does 135% of the second attack's DMG.
★★★★・	C5: True Explorer Increases the Level of Fantastic Voyage by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
★・・・・	C6: Fire Ventures With Me Sword, Claymore, or Polearm-wielding characters inside Fantastic Voyage's radius gain a 15% Pyro DMG Bonus and their weapons are infused with Pyro

Aim For Constellation 1 For Bennett

Bennett's Constellation 1 removes the restriction of his Burst, allowing characters to receive both Healing and the ATK Buff. This makes Bennett an extremely strong Support & Healer for his team.

Not Recommended To C6

Even if you get enough Constellations to C6 Bennett, it's strongly recommended not to do so. At C6, the Pyro infusion will limit the versatility of Bennett and can even be detrimental to team comps wherein the reactions do not rely on Pyro.
