The Flute or Prototype Rancour for Bennett

You definitely should prioritize weapons with Energy Recharge such as Favonius Sword & Sacrificial Sword (viable 3* option would be the Skyrider Sword). Skyward Blade is the best 5* option for Bennett, alternatively you could also use Physical DMG weapons (Prototype Rancour, etc) pic.twitter.com/Yic9xbxSDB

Bennett has been recognized as one of the best support characters in Genshin Impact. With the ability to heal and boost teammates' attacks, Bennett can be deployed to almost every party.

He is considered as the unluckiest person in the Adventurer Guild, resulting in him being alone in his adventure team. After some bad circumstances while exploring with Bennett, the others decide to jump ship.

Bennett, fortunately, is able to pick himself up and adjust to his misfortune. His bad luck is also one of the reasons why players adore him.

Here are the best artifacts, weapons and talent priority for Bennett in Genshin Impact that players can use.

For whom you want it?

I had the same dilemma but with Lion Roar and Black Sword too for Keqing and BS was by far the most recommended.
It's for Qiqi! Lol. I really like to heal the entire party with HoF using her autos and charged attacks. The persistent stacks from Rancour work well to boost heal and damage but the Atk% of Flute is also tempting. I also have Black sword but that's Keqings. She has 2/2 Gladiator/25% phy DMG (forgot name) for her artifacts. I have a pretty easy time keeping superconduct up with her and Keqing together. I wouldn't mind investing in Flute if it'll raise her damage output but my priority is her damage rather than her heals. Her heals are more than strong enough at the level I've taken her that a drop wouldn't matter. Also could use a good sword for Bennett but since I hardly use him not willing to lv90 a weapon just for him. Bennett is also only lv50. But Qiqi is a major player in alot of my teams so another lv90 weapon to increase her damage would be great! Just don't know if R1 Flute would provide that vs R2 Rancour she's already using.

I'll skip the long answer because which is better depends on your character moveset and combo (the rate at which he can gather harmonic because of the 0.5s internal cooldown) and the character multipliers (which depends on the talent level). Also, Prototype Rancour's higher base attack and second stat are it's strongest points and it doesn't benefit much from refinement (barely a 5% increase in damage between R1 and R5). But for the Flute, refinement can mean a good increase in damage depending on the character moveset and his multipliers.

Anyway, the short answer is:
* Prototype Rancour R1 is usually better than Flute R1 (unless you have low attack multipliers)
* Flute R5 can be better than Prototype Rancour R5 (depending on character)

So for you, Prototype Rancour R2 is probably better (and would still have been at R1 in all likelihood). If you get extra Flutes later, maybe it'll become better depending on your character but right now, the Prototype Rancour should be better.
R1 16% atk increase and r5 32% atk increase is not 5% damage difference

It is because it's +16% base attack when your total attack is already a lot more of your base attack due to various equipment (atk% sands, feather, substats, gladiator set and other various buffs).

If your total attack is 300% of your base attack (2400 total attack for 800 base attack), the R5 4 stacks bring you to 332% base attack instead of the 316% base attack of the R1 4 stacks, which is only a 5% damage increase.

Even if your total attack is only 200% of your base attack (which is the very lowest possible with only feather and atk% sand and absolutely no other atk increase), you go from 216% to 232% which is still lower than a 8% damage increase.

Rancour for physical main dps and on main dps in general because as you do auto attacks you get stacks that make your damage even bigger as you fight.
Flute is more useful on a support whose skill and/or burst scales off the attack stat. If that is all you need of course, like there's nothing better than flute if all you care about bigger number on attack stat which is more healing on Qiqi, more attack to give to others via Bennet.
It's for Qiqi main dps build. I do sometimes just do short strings of autos but will sometimes use her like main dps face tank. Have her as physical damage critical build for bursting down enemies weak to physical or when the others are hurt. So was thinking Flute might cause more damage for the short bursts and increase her heals.

Thanks! This is informative. You're probably right about the refines. Maybe if I get a couple more then I'll level the Flute.

I have Qiqi's talents at 8/7/7 but have heard her scaling isn't the very high. Her autos combo is very quick with hits and are great for keeping abyss mages stunned while I heal my party. I usually alternate between Qiqi and Keqing to keep up the chase and apply superconduct.

Does The Flutes stacks persists for the 30s even if she's switched in and out?

How is the Black Sword doing on Keqing?

Is she dishing big DPS or what?

My Keqing is electro build and the black sword passive healing really makes her tanky. As for her damage she's 2nd only to Klee on my teams. She's very quick on her combos and certainly does more damage than Qiqi's autos. My artifacts aren't the best but normals do around 1600 for the beginning quick hits and also see alot of 4-5k and 8-9k hits. Some of those are me spamming her E though. Lightning queen really describes her well at the sheer speed of her attacks. She's definitely the quickest and best at eliminating spread out enemies. I rarely see big #s but multiple 8k hits in a couple seconds are just as good dps as 20k charge attacks from my Klee and Ganyu. Can't really compare Black sword to any other sword for Keqing though. She's been using since I got her 2-3 weeks after Genshin launched. It's the only sword she's ever used for me and I think it's great!

Did the math rancour with buffs up and flute both at lvl 90 are pretty close in terms of atk increase. But rancour has extra phys % so it will deal more damage, heal will be pretty close on both. Flute would be better in a situation where you switch to Qiqi use her elemental skill and switch to dps, this way you get good heal without the need to hit the enemy to get the stacks like with rancour and only then use the skill for better heal, flute allows to have same heal without wasting time.

Both are suitable flute is just better when Qiqi is literally heal support that pops her healing skill and that's it. In other situation like if you want a bit more dps then rancour will be better.

Everyone with "official ... of said board" in their sig is just a stupid dumbarse.

Sorry bad math, Rancour is better at everything. Both at dps and heal.

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to math that out. I really appreciate it!

I guess I'll stick with Rancour unless I manage a R4-5 Flute from gatcha. Qiqi is still an ongoing project of increasing her dps. Even with all the physical damage stats I've stacked on her I've never felt I needed to boost her healing so really been looking for more damage instead.

Maybe I'll just keep farming for that full 4 peice Bloodstained Chivalry set with better crit damage to increase her damage output. Guess it really is about the artifacts for higher damage unless you for 5* weapons.

Thanks everyone for all the informative posts!

  3. Prototype Rancour or The Flute?

Is flute good for Bennett?

10/12 The Flute - Four Star A four-star sword you'll obtain through Wishes, the Flute bumps up your Base Attack between 42 and 510, and has the secondary stat of Attack that, depending on Bennett's level, will give you another nine to 41.3 percent increase.

Which one is better the flute or Prototype Rancour?

Anyway, the short answer is: Prototype Rancour R1 is usually better than Flute R1 (unless you have low attack multipliers)

What sword works best for Bennett?

Aquila Favonia gives Bennett the biggest attack boost, with its high base attack and a passive skill that increases attack by a further 20 percent at the lowest refinement level.

What weapon should I use on Bennett?

The best weapon for Bennett in Genshin Impact For the 5-star arsenal, Skyward Blade is the best weapon for Bennett. Although the sword has a lower base attack than Aquila Favonia, it has a high Energy Recharge for its secondary stats. Aquila Favonia is another excellent 5-star sword for this character.
