Genshin Impact Bennett build: Best weapons, artifacts and teams

DESPITE only being a four-star character, Bennett is one of the most useful characters you can pull in banners.

He’s not only one of Genshin’s oldest characters, but he remains one of the best Supports to this day.

His abilities not only provide great healing and damage buffs, but also provide consistent Pyro application.

Here’s how to build Bennett in Genshin Impact.

Best weapons for Bennett in Genshin Impact

Both Bennett’s HP and attack are important for him, and maximise his ability to support the team.

Energy recharge is another important stat, as you need to use his elemental burst as often as possible.

Aquila Favonia is a great weapon for Bennett as it will boost Bennett’s attack by 20%.

The other route you can take is using the Skyward Blade, which will give a huge boost to energy recharge.

Here are some alternative weapons for Bennett:

• Sacrificial Sword (five-star sword)
• Favonius Sword (four-star sword)

Best artifacts for Bennett in Genshin Impact

Like the majority of Support characters a full set of Noblesse Oblige is the best artifact set for Bennett.

At two pieces, it boosts elemental burst damage, while four pieces increase the teams’ attack.

This is perfect for Bennett, as he is only on the field long enough to cast his elemental burst before making way for the Main DPS.

You’ll want the following stat distribution on Bennett’s artifacts:

• Flower: HP (main stat), Energy Recharge, HP%, Attack%, Elemental Mastery (secondary stats)
• Plume: Attack (main stat), Energy Recharge, HP%, Attack%, Elemental Mastery (secondary stats)
• Sands: Energy Recharge (main stat), HP%, Attack%, Elemental Mastery, HP (secondary stats)
• Goblet: HP% (main stat), Energy Recharge, Attack%, Elemental Mastery, HP (secondary stats)
• Circlet: Healing Bonus% (main stat), HP%, Attack%, Elemental Mastery, HP (secondary stats)

Best teams for Bennett in Genshin Impact

Bennett can best support a Main DPS that does most of their damage with normal attacks.

• Ganyu (Main DPS), Xiangling (Sub DPS), Bennett (Support), Zhongli (Support)

Bennett boosts Ganyu’s attacks, and the Pyro application creates a Melt composition.

Zhongli will provide additional attack buffs as well as shields.

• Raiden Shogun (Main DPS), Xiangling (Sub DPS), Xingqiu (Sub DPS), Bennett (Support)

Xiangling and Bennett work well together to provide constant off-field Pyro effects, which help Raiden and Xingqiu trigger reactions.

Raiden works as a battery which negates Bennett’s high energy consumption.

• Kamisato Ayato (Main DPS), Xiangling (Sub DPS), Kazuha (Support), Bennett (Support)

This is a Vaporise team based again on Xiangling and Bennetts Pyro resonance, and off-field effects.

Kazuha shreds the enemies’ elemental resistances making this team even more powerful.
