The recommended Energy Recharge (ER) for Bennett varies significantly depending on several key factors, primarily how often he uses his Elemental Skill (E) and the number of Pyro characters in your team composition. To ensure his Elemental Burst is consistently available, his ER requirements can range from 115% to 350%.
Understanding Bennett's Energy Recharge Needs
Bennett's Elemental Burst, Fantastic Voyage, is crucial for his support capabilities, providing a powerful ATK buff and healing. Maintaining its uptime requires careful management of his Energy Recharge. The exact amount of ER needed is influenced by the following:
- Skills per Burst (E usage): This refers to how many times Bennett uses his Elemental Skill (Passion Overload) between each cast of his Elemental Burst. More frequent E usage generates more energy, reducing his ER requirements.
- Team Composition (Pyro Units):
- Solo Pyro: Bennett is the only Pyro character in the team. This setup typically requires higher ER as there's no Pyro Resonance or additional Pyro particles generated by other characters.
- Double Pyro: There's at least one other Pyro character in the team, activating Pyro Resonance and generating more Pyro energy particles, which significantly lowers Bennett's ER needs.
Recommended ER Values for Bennett
To help you determine the optimal ER for your Bennett build, refer to the following guidelines:
| Skills per Burst (E casts between Q) | Solo Pyro (Bennett is the only Pyro) | Double Pyro (2+ Pyro characters) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Skill | 275% - 350% | 180% - 200% |
| 2 Skills | 220% - 250% | 150% - 170% |
| 3 Skills | 170% - 200% | 130% - 150% |
| 4 Skills | 145% - 160% | 115% - 135% |
Practical Insights for Building Bennett
- Prioritize Burst Uptime: The goal is to consistently have Bennett's Elemental Burst ready off cooldown. Use the table above as a guideline, but always test in-game to see if your Bennett is meeting his energy requirements comfortably.
- Artifact Sets: The Noblesse Oblige 4-piece set is often ideal for Bennett due to its Burst DMG bonus and team ATK buff, making ER substats crucial on his other artifact pieces.
- Weapons: Many suitable swords for Bennett, such as Skyward Blade or Favonius Sword, provide Energy Recharge as a secondary stat, helping to meet his demanding energy needs. Even a high base ATK sword with an ER substat on artifacts can work if you meet the ER thresholds.
- ER Sands: An Energy Recharge Sands artifact is almost always recommended for Bennett to help him reach the necessary ER percentages, especially in Solo Pyro teams or if he uses fewer Elemental Skills.
By carefully considering your team composition and playstyle, you can effectively gear Bennett to ensure his Elemental Burst is always ready to support your party. For more detailed information, consult comprehensive Bennett guides.
