Version: 5.7 | Last Updated: 2026-02-10 | Sources: KQM, Game8, Icy-Veins
Overview
Bennett is a 4-star Pyro Sword character widely considered the best support in Genshin Impact. His Elemental Burst provides massive ATK buffs, healing, and Pyro application in one skill.
Why Bennett is SS Tier
- Unmatched Flat ATK buff (scales with Base ATK only)
- Excellent healing (up to 70% HP threshold)
- Strong Pyro battery with low cooldown Skill
- Works in almost every team composition
- C1 removes HP restriction on ATK buff
Talent Priority
| Priority | Talent | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Elemental Burst | ATK buff and healing scale with level |
| 2 | Elemental Skill | Increases damage for on-field builds |
| 3 | Normal Attack | Only for DPS Bennett (rare) |
Note: Level Bennett to 90 if he triggers Overloaded/Burgeon reactions frequently.
Best Artifact Sets
1. Noblesse Oblige (4pc) - Best Support
- 2pc: Elemental Burst DMG +20%
- 4pc: Using Burst grants party +20% ATK for 12s
- Why: Stacks with his innate ATK buff
2. Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City (4pc) - New Option
- Provides elemental DMG buffs based on reactions
- Good for teams that use elemental reactions
3. 2pc/2pc Combinations
- 2pc Noblesse + 2pc Emblem (more Burst uptime)
- 4pc Instructor (EM buff for reaction teams)
Main Stats Priority

Best Weapons
| Rank | Weapon | Notes |

| 2 | Mistsplitter Reforged (5★) | High Base ATK |
| 3 | Skyward Blade (5★) | ER + High Base ATK |
