Pure Support Bennett Build

Building Bennett purely as a support simply means focusing entirely on hishealing and damage-increasing capabilities. Therefore, making him much easierto build but losing some of his personal damage.

    Due to Bennetts' skill and burst scaling, HP andEnergy Recharge are all that is needed. ER to make his burstoccur frequently and HP for healing. Bennett's damage buff from Fantastic Voyage scales entirely off of his base attack andthe base attack of his weapon. Therefore, any weapon with a high base attack isvaluable.

    Additionally, you can change your sands to have an HP % main stat instead ofEnergy Recharge if you feel you have no energy issues. In termsof Talent Priority, Normal Attacks are not needed and can be ignored.

    Burst Support Bennett Build

    Unlike Pure Support Bennett, Burst Support instead removes any potentialexcess healing to help increase more damage. Therefore Bennett is built withentirely different main stats such as Attack, Pyro DMG and CRIT to increase his DPS.

      Depending on substat RNG, Energy Recharge may be needed as the main statof your Sands piece until you farm additional artifacts. Compared to the firstbuild this build will have less healing in exchange for personal damage.

      The exact amount of Energy Recharge depends on your party composition,any weapons that generate Energy Recharge as well as how often you use Passion Overload between Bursts. With 2 Pyro characters in yourparty you will often want around 150-200%, with just Bennett you want around 250%.

      Combos and How to Play Bennett

      Bennett is an incredibly easy character to play, simply tap hisElemental Skill, Passion Overload, to gain energy and then set his Elemental Burst tobuff and heal your party. Passion Overload is also great to breakCryo shields due to its low cooldown.

      You do need to consider the placement of his Elemental Burst, Fantastic Voyage.Once placed, the effects of Fantastic Voyage will only apply while insideof the AoE. Depending on your Energy Recharge, you may need to use Passion Overload2+ times per rotation.

      Bennett's Best Team Comps

      Due to how versatile Bennett is, it often becomes a question of what teamcompositions does he not fit into especially because he fits the role ofboth a healer and a buffer. Nevertheless listed below are a few of the mostpopular examples using Bennett.

      5.1.

      National and International Teams

      Main DPSSub DPSSub DPSSupport
      Raiden Shogun Xingqiu Xiangling Bennett
      Tartaglia Sucrose Xiangling Bennett

      The National team is a popular team composition involvingXingqiu, Xiangling, Bennett and a Main DPS inthe flex position. While there are a range of variants, the above 2 usingRaiden Shogun and Childe are generally thestrongest. With Raiden Shogun's team commonly being referred to asNational, and Childe's team being referred to asInternational and uses Sucrose insteadof Xingqiu.

      Bennett is incredibly useful here due to providing Pyroresonance for Xiangling as well asincreasing the damage for each character. Paired with Xingqiuthey easily provide enough healing for the party.

      5.2.

      Ganyu Melt Team

      Bennet's Constellations

      Grand Expectation, C1, is the best constellation for Bennett dueto it removing the restrictions of their kit and additionallyproviding more of a damage buff. Other constellations are helpful, but no wherenear as useful.

      Fire Ventures with Me is a divisive Constellation in the community.On one hand, the infusion or damage can be useful to your party andon the other hand, it can ruin physical builds or replace the infusionof a character. For the majority of characters, it does not matter ortheir physical build would be weaker than other builds anyway. Many infusionscan not be replaced either.
