Genshin Impact 2.5's second phase banners are live, and the roster of characters featured in the double rerun is an interesting mix.
Even though the focus is on both 5-stars, Baal and Kokomi, the presence of Bennett also increases the value of these Banners.
Bennett is arguably Genshin Impact's best support. The 4-star Pyro Sword wielder boasts the best ATK boost in the game and plenty of healing to keep his teammates alive.
With that, here are the best ways to build Bennett in Genshin Impact 2.5.
Reign of Serenity Banner Details
Reign of Serenity, the second banner of Genshin Impact 2.5, launched on March 8, 2022, and will be available until March 29, 2022.
- Reign of Serenity will feature Bennett the 4-star Pyro Sword User.
The following characters complete the banner:
- Raiden Shogun- 5-star Electro, Polearm User
- Kujou Sara - 4-star Electro, Bow User
- Xinyan - 4-star Pyro, Claymore User.
Who is Bennett?
An orphan discovered by an elderly adventurer as a baby, Bennett was raised in Mondstadt by the Adventurers' Guild.
Best Attributes
- Provides the most powerful ATK buff and AoE healing.
- Bennett's Elemental Skill has a low cooldown and can be charged.
- Easy and consistent pyro applications, with a decent DMG output.
Weakness
- Fully charged Elemental Skill outside of Burst field causes knockback, spreading enemies too far.
Best Weapons
Rarity | Name | Stat | Ability |
|---|---|---|---|
5-Star | Aquila Favonia | Physical DMG | ATK is increased by 40%. Triggers on taking DMG: the soul of the Falcon of the West awakens, holding the banner of the resistance aloft, regenerating HP equal to 160% of ATK and dealing 320% of ATK as DMG to surrounding opponents. This effect can only occur once every 15s. |
4-Star | Prototype Rancour | Physical DMG | On hit, Normal or Charged Attacks increase ATK and DEF by 4~8% for 6s. Max 4 stacks. Can only occur once every 0.3s. |
Aquila Favonia
- This 5-star sword has a very high ATK Base, the buff that Bennett provides is based on the character-based ATK.
- The weapon also heal based on the ATK of Bennett and give 20% extra ATK, so it is a balanced weapon with good offensive and defensive stats.
Prototype Rancour
- The Prototype Rancour is a reward by completing the Adventurer's Guide, the refinements are craftable, the sword is a good low-budget option.
Bennett can work with most words, the highest the ATK the better. So, in this aspect is a very flexible character.

Best Artifacts for Bennett
Build | Set 1 | Set 2 | Stats Needed |
|---|---|---|---|
Best in Slot | Noblesse Oblige | Noblesse Oblige | Sands: Energy Recharge or ATK - Goblet: HP% - Circlet: Healing Bonus| |
Substitute | Gladiator's Finale | Shimenawa's Reminiscence | Sands: Energy Recharge or ATK - Goblet: HP% - Circlet: Healing Bonus| |
There are two main ways to build Bennett in Genshin Impact 2.5. One is using the Noblesse Oblige four-piece set, and the second is a combination of Gladiator's Finale and Shimenawa's Reminiscence.
Gladiator's Finale + Shimenawa's Reminiscence.
Using two pieces of each set will give a double ATK bonus that will increase the ATK buff of Bennett.
Noblesse Oblige
Noblesse Oblige is a very powerful set that will increase the DMG Output of the elemental burst while providing an ATK buff that stacks with Bennett's
Emblem of the Severed Fate
Some players also explore two pieces of the Emblem of Severed fate to make sure Bennett can spam his abilities, we recommend using this option if you have very good pieces.
Best Team Compositions
Role | Character | Element |
|---|---|---|
Main DPS | Xiangling | Pyro |
Sub DPS | Baal | Electro |
Elemental Enabler | Bennett | Pyro |
Support | Xingqiu | Hydro |
As we mentioned earlier, Bennett is possibly the best support in Genshin Impact. He is the ultimate plug-and-play character.
Bennett can be added to any team and it will increase the performance of all the roster. However, the most popular for Bennett is the National Team with Raiden Shogun.
Rational
Quick swap team, all members contribute to the overall DMG, and they have powerful outfield abilities that keep them active during the entire battle.
Main DPS
- Xianglin, the F2P God, will Evaporate enemies in combination with Bennett ATK buff and Xingqiu Swords.
Sub-DPS
- Raiden Shogun's battery capabilities made her the perfect fit to elevate the OG National Team to Top Tier Level.
- Raiden Provides powerful output DMG while she is out and on the battlefield.
Elemental Enabler
- Bennett is in the team to heal, buff ATK and provide Pyro Resonance to Xiangling.
Support
- Xingqiu plays a support role with very high DMG output. The consistent Hydro Application will interact with Raiden and Xiangling Skills.
Hyper Carry Raiden
With the current banner, players can pull for Bennett and possibly Constellation 2 of Baal.
This team is a power to reckon, although compare with Rational definitely required higher commitment.
Main DPS
- The team focuses on providing Raiden Shogun, with all the tools necessary to reach her max DMG potential.
Buffers
- Bennett not only will buff Raiden ATK, but he is also the healer in this team.
- Kujou Sara is great in this team. Her ATK buff can stack with Bennett for the ultimate ATK Boost. Constellations 6 K. Sara takes Raiden DMG to the stratosphere.
- Kazuha will reposition enemies and add DMG with constant Swirl Reactions.
