Hey everyone! If you're here, you're probably looking to supercharge your Bennett in Genshin Impact, right? Well, you've come to the right place! Bennett is, without a doubt, one of the most beloved and essential characters in the game. He's the ultimate support, the king of buffs, and a lifesaver in almost every team comp. But to truly unlock his potential, you've gotta nail those Bennett artifacts and stats. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about optimizing your fiery hero, from the best artifact sets to the crucial stats you should be hunting for. Let's get started, yeah?

Why Bennett Needs the Right Artifacts

Okay, so why are Bennett artifacts so freakin' important? Simple: they directly influence how effective he is at his main job. And what is that job? Two things primarily:

• Healing: Bennett's Elemental Burst, Fantastic Voyage, heals your active character. The amount of healing is determined by his Max HP.
• Attack Buffing: Fantastic Voyage also provides an attack buff to your active character(s). This buff is calculated based on Bennett's Base ATK, which is influenced by his weapon level and his own base attack stats.

So, your artifact stats and sets need to reflect these priorities. You want to maximize both healing and the attack buff. That means choosing the right sets and focusing on the right stats. Getting it wrong? You'll have a sad, underperforming Bennett who can't keep your team alive or dish out the big damage.

Now, before we dive into the specific sets and stats, let's get a quick refresher on artifact basics. Remember, you have five artifact slots: Flower (always HP), Feather (always ATK), Sands (can be HP%, ATK%, or Energy Recharge), Goblet (can be HP%, ATK%, Pyro DMG Bonus, etc.), and Circlet (can be HP%, ATK%, Healing Bonus, or Crit Rate/DMG). Understanding these slots is key to building a good Bennett.

Best Artifact Sets for Bennett

Alright, let's talk sets! Choosing the right artifact sets for Bennett is the first big step. Here are the top contenders, along with why they're so good:

Noblesse Oblige (4-Piece)

This is the gold standard for Bennett. The 2-piece bonus gives you +20% Elemental Burst DMG, and the 4-piece bonus is where it's at: it increases the ATK of all party members by 20% for 12 seconds after using an Elemental Burst. This is a massive buff, and it's why Bennett is such an amazing support. It directly enhances your team's damage output, making it easier to clear content and defeat those pesky bosses. This set is especially good for teams that rely on their Elemental Bursts for damage.

• Pros: Incredible ATK buff, easy to use, and always relevant.
• Cons: The buff's duration is limited to 12 seconds.

Emblem of Severed Fate (4-Piece)

This set is a more niche but still very effective choice for Bennett. The 2-piece bonus provides +20% Energy Recharge, which is fantastic for ensuring he can use his burst off-cooldown. The 4-piece bonus increases Elemental Burst DMG by 25% of Energy Recharge. This means, if you have 200% ER, you get a 50% DMG increase. For high ER values, it can be a great option.

• Pros: Boosts both Energy Recharge and Burst DMG, making Bennett's burst more consistent and powerful.
• Cons: Not as effective for ATK buffing as Noblesse Oblige.

Instructor (4-Piece)

Instructor is a budget-friendly option, especially for early-game players. The 2-piece bonus grants +80 Elemental Mastery, and the 4-piece bonus increases the party's EM by 120 for 8 seconds after using an Elemental Skill. This set can be useful in reactions teams, like vaporize, melt, and overload.

• Pros: Easy to obtain, and boosts Elemental Reactions.
• Cons: The EM buff is not as impactful as Noblesse Oblige's ATK buff.

Other Combinations

If you don't have a full set of any of the above, don't sweat it. Two-piece combinations can work great! Some possibilities include:

• Noblesse Oblige (2-piece) + any other set (2-piece): Combining Noblesse Oblige with other sets, like the HP or Energy Recharge sets, can also be a viable option, though not optimal.
• Mix-and-match: Sometimes, the best artifacts you have are a mix of different sets. Prioritize good substats over set bonuses if you're struggling to get the right pieces.

Bennett's Artifact Stats: What to Prioritize

So, you've chosen your artifact set – awesome! Now, let's talk stats. This is where the real customization happens. Here's a breakdown of the stats you should be focusing on:

Main Stats

• Sands: Energy Recharge or HP%. ER is crucial if you want to use his Burst frequently. HP% is a good alternative if you want to focus on his healing.
• Goblet: HP% or Pyro DMG Bonus. Both are valuable. HP% increases his healing, and Pyro DMG Bonus boosts his damage (if you’re building a DPS Bennett). If using Pyro DMG Bonus, ensure you have a good balance of other stats.
• Circlet: Healing Bonus or HP%. Healing Bonus is a great choice if you want to maximize his healing output. HP% is a solid alternative.

Substats

Substats are the secondary stats that appear on your artifacts. These are crucial for fine-tuning your build. Here's the order of importance:

1. Energy Recharge: Aim for at least 180%-200% ER. This ensures Bennett can consistently use his Burst off cooldown, which is what makes him so good. The exact amount you need depends on your team comp and weapon.
2. HP%: More HP means more healing. This is particularly important if you want Bennett to be a strong healer.
3. Flat HP: A decent secondary stat.
4. ATK%: Can boost his ATK buff. (Only if using Noblesse Oblige.)
5. Flat ATK: A decent secondary stat.

Important Note: Crit Rate/Crit DMG are not as important on Bennett because his main job is support and the healing/buffing do not take these stats into account. If you end up with good crit stats, that's a bonus, but don't prioritize them. Bennett's primary role is support, and these stats are wasted on him.

Leveling Bennett and His Talents

Before we move on, let's talk about leveling up Bennett and his talents. This is a must if you want your Bennett to be top-tier. To maximize his potential, make sure you do the following:

• Level Bennett: Leveling Bennett to 90 is recommended. This will increase his base attack and max HP, making his healing and buff even better.
• Talent Priority:
  • Elemental Burst (Fantastic Voyage): This is the most important talent to level. This is where his healing and attack buff come from, so maxing this is your top priority.
  • Elemental Skill (Passion Overload): After your burst, work on his Elemental Skill. This does decent damage and generates energy for him.
  • Normal Attack (Bad luck!): This can be left at a low level; it's not super important.

Weapon Choices for Bennett

Your weapon choice plays a huge role in Bennett artifacts effectiveness. A high Base ATK weapon is crucial for maximizing his attack buff. The higher the Base ATK, the stronger the buff. Here are some of the best weapons for Bennett:

• Best in Slot (BiS):
  • Skyward Blade: This is widely regarded as the best weapon for Bennett. It has a high base ATK, boosts Energy Recharge, and can increase Crit Rate. The extra energy recharge is also great for maintaining his burst uptime.
• Other great options:
  • Aquila Favonia: Provides a high base ATK. It's an excellent choice if you have it.
  • The Alley Flash: A good option with high base ATK, which can be obtained without gacha.
  • Favonius Sword: A good 4-star option. It has decent base ATK and energy recharge. It's a great option for supporting a team.
  • Sacrificial Sword: Allows Bennett to use his skill twice, providing more energy.

Team Compositions with Bennett

Finally, let's look at some team compositions where Bennett shines. Bennett is incredibly versatile, so you can fit him into various teams. Here are a few examples:

• National Team: Xiangling, Xingqiu, and Bennett are the core of this team. This team is considered a meta option for its ability to deal with various team comps. Its effectiveness is from Vaporize and Melt reaction.
• Reverse Melt: Bennett with Ganyu, Kaeya, and an Anemo character (like Venti or Kazuha). This team melts the enemies by using Bennett for Pyro Application with Cryo Damage to trigger Melt.
• Mono Pyro: Bennett, Xiangling, Kazuha, and a Pyro DPS (like Yoimiya or Hu Tao). This team focuses on dealing with Pyro Damage.
• Freeze Teams: Bennett can support freeze teams, providing buffs and healing to keep the team alive.
