Jokingly called the “true Pyro Archon” by Genshin Impact players, Bennett is a top-tier 4* support that can do a lot of things— from providing buffs, healing teammates, and being the main damage dealer— Bennett’s versatility in team compositions is quite unmatched. If you are unsure about how to build the best Pyro boy, then read on!
3. DPS Bennett
DPS Bennett build
A lot of people tend to overlook Bennett’s potential as a main damage dealer, which is understandable due to the nature of his skills. Pair him up with a Cryo support like Chongyun, and Bennett might just really become the new Pyro Archon.
What DPS Bennett Excels In:
- Easy melt reaction
- Quick to build
- Benefits from the full effect of the 4-piece Crimson Witch of Flames set
- Strong against single target enemies
Build details:
- Weapons:
- Mistsplitter Reforged (5*) - this is DPS Bennett’s best weapon. Its high ATK base and passive benefits DPS Bennett.
- Primordial Jade Cutter (5*) - this is DPS Bennett’s second best weapon.
- Freedom Sworn / Summit Shaper / Skyward Blade (5*) - these weapons are all good stat sticks, but are far inferior to Mistsplitter and Jade Cutter.
- Blackcliff Longsword (4*) - DPS Bennett’s best 4* weapon. Its decent ATK base and CRIT substat benefits DPS Bennett.
- The Black Sword (4*) - a 4* Battle Pass weapon that is somewhat lackluster on Bennett due to its low ATK base, but is still decent on him.
- Iron Sting (4*) - a free, craftable 4* weapon that is decent on DPS Bennett.
- The Alley Flash (4*) - somewhat decent on DPS Bennett because of its high ATK base and Elemental Mastery (EM) substat, but is inferior to its other 4* weapon counterparts.

What Healer Bennett Excels In:
