  1. I think Bennett c6 is good for what I want him, bow and catalyst users don't get affected so Ganyu is fine, I don't really like telling other people what to do so this is a me thing since like I explained in the other video my Eula team does well without him so im happy, if other people don't want too because of future phys characters or because you don't want to be infused with pyro that's completely fine since I get not everyone wants to narrow their Bennett to just pyro teams.

    As for Ayaka, doesn't people only use her in freeze teams? Why would you use Bennett with her? If you want to maximize your burst dmg, his infusion doesn't affect her burst. But even melt Ayaka, I use a cryo cup still (although I do have mistsplitter tho) and only bring her to use her burst and have her melt her burst and thats it, don't know if it's better than other teams but hey it gets the job done lol.

    Overall I think it only ruins phys teams, so just Eula and Razor atm, most carries/dps/sub dps aren't affected, like Ayato, Raiden, Itto, Yoimiya, Hu Tao, Ganyu, Xiangling, Diluc, Childe, Klee, and even Keqing to an extent (B̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ ̶n̶o̶b̶o̶d̶y̶ ̶u̶s̶e̶s̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶ because pyro Keqing is good) plus doesn't everyone always say abyss is very easy anyway?

  2. I activated his c6 and I don't regret it. As far as I'm concerned, the cons only effects melee normal and charge attack for character that doesn't have high priority infusion (like Noelle, Itto or character with infusion that cannot be overridden). I don't usually use Bennett to even care about this so much and even if I'm using him, he is not paired up with character with low priority infusion.

  3. I got C6 Bennett awhile ago, still don't regret it. I don't even use him and none of the characters I use would be ruined by him(ie. Raiden Shogun or Mona). Ayaka maybe but she's in freeze comp anyway. Doesn't affect Ayato, Itto or Xiao, so that whole fear mongering of C6 Bennett is a load of hogwash. Each players experience varies and for me it's more of a net positive then a loss.

  4. I kinda agree it ruins him but really just a few of them. It messes with mostly Physical Damage dealers. There are plenty of character that can't be overridden by Benny. Sadly for ayaya mains, the cryo infusion wasn't stated that it can't be overwritten hence the limitation but who run ayaka with Bennett though? Most I've seen is with Kokomi, Mona, Shenhe, Rosaria, Kazuha, Sucrose, and Diona for freeze comps (idk, I'm not an Ayaka main).

    Best example that could be ruined here would be Eula, Keqing, and Razor since some of their famous team comps have Benny. It would really be depending on the account and team comp since not everyone runs this teams.

  5. I will say you shouldn't C6 Bennett unless you're ABSOLUTELY sure you want his pyro infusion. I have Eula, Ayaka, Keqing (though I don't use her that much), and Razor all built who to my knowledge are the only ones "negatively" affected by Bennett's C6, but I realized I didn't really use Bennett with them at all (except phys. Razor) and have other supports for them. Eula with ZL/Diona, Raiden, Rosaria. Ayaka with ZL/Diona, Shenhe, Kazuha. Keqing with ZL, Sara, Kazuha. Even with phys. Razor I just run him with ZL/Diona, Yun Jin, and Rosaria instead of Bennett and it's only hitting like 2-3k less than with Bennett.

    Recently I actually did C6 Bennett after thinking about it for a LONG time and honestly I don't really regret it that much. One of my favorite things is making up different team comps and Bennett really helps open up some new comps. Overload Razor is fun against bosses, Pyro Thoma (C6) is actually pretty busted, Pyro Kazuha is pretty fun, all my Diluc, Yanfei, and Amber get a nice boost. I don't really regret it but toggle-able cons in the future would still be nice.

    Honestly I don't think it's that bad if you C6'd him IF you have other units built up but I wouldn't recommend it to new or f2p players who just trying to build up their characters or if you're 100% set on using him with Eula, Ayaka, Keqing, and/or Razor.

  6. I opened C6 Bennett after maybe 6 month getting that much constellation knowing how it works. The only problems which I was aware of was Ayaka but I knew I'd be using her with freeze teams anyway. Also, I don't have nor do I plan on getting Eula.

    As for the future, for sure I'm taking a risk there, but Hoyoverse know how they screwed it up with Bennett and I doubt they with create more characters that require Bennett.

  7. U know i expected actual argument. But now I am questioning ur ability to build team. In what situation u use ayaka 4 price blizzard and Bennet? Ayaka is freez team only with 4 piece blizzard. 1 character that is not even use with him is ur argument?

  8. Bennett is a god tier support right now. With future physical DPS charas on the horizon, why would you willingly give up huge potential that as of right now cannot be reversed forever?

  9. fair point, but who tf plays bennett w/ayaka? and keqing has sara who is situationally better. c6 bennet doesnt affect most of the top meta characters the only one who this really hinders is eula. literally everyone else is fine,
    he doesnt affect:
    childe
    raiden
    hutao
    yoimiya
    ganyu
    xiao
    itto

    ayato
    miko
    and the list gets longer if we start counting 4 stars

  10. Its one of that decisions that "ruins" accounts. But i already used 9 crowns on chongyun, qiqi, and xinyan, my account was ruined long ago 😂 (and im farming to max the talents of amber…) but i really enjoy to play bennet as a dps with a pyro character. And i dont use him on every team because i dont do abyss, so as a semi-casual (or whatever) its not so bad. Its still a terrible decision specially for a free to play, so whoever wants to do that, must be aware its a permanent dps loss for their account except for pyro characters.

  11. It's more of a extreme trade off than bad. The pyro infusion only overrides Chon's and Ayaka's ice infusion everything else actually overrides c6. The only characters that actively get worse are physical carries (pretty much just Razor and Eula). Everyone else usually is the same or gets warped into a different build. For example Ayaka and the other cryo characters would just run reverse melt instead or run freeze without Bennett. He also becomes one of the best shield shredders in the game because of how pyro works against elements. Outside of pyro shields obviously he does really well (for geo use overcharged). Unfortunately melt Bennett doesn't exist anymore and physical carries become trash but everything else either becomes better or different.

  12. Why would you even use Bennett with ayaka
    Ayaka has her own “Bennett” aka Shenhe

    With keqhit she is powercrapt and she is shit so forget about her
    The only characters that are going to get ruined are the physical one …

  13. I don't think c6 Bennett is bad in any way. If I try to way to think of it c6 bennet will only fuck up:
    1. Physical DPS units
    2. Units with overridable infusions.

    Let's see. The only units with overridable infusions as far As I remember are ayaka, keqing and kazuha. Keqing is barely used by people today, for kazuha it doesn't really matter as you build EM and you can swirl with your E and Q anyways to provide the buff. As for ayaka you are putting her with another cryo, a hydro and an anemo unit. So there isn't a place for Bennett anyways.

    As for physical units go. Yes you do close of that route with Bennett. But I personally have been using her with raiden zhongli and rosaria. I don't see any issue without bennet in my team. Razor is the only one truely fucked up by C6 Bennett, but he rarely sees any play.

  14. Actually is not that bad, it´s only bad if you play non sense teams just for fun and that´s completely fine, but if you are looking for good team comps, the better ones for Ayaka doesn´t include bennett, and also you don´t play bennett with Eula or Razor, the other carries on the game are not affected by it even if they are not pyro, for example, Xiao, Itto, Tartaglia, Raiden, Ayato, Ganyu, etc…

  15. You say it messes up "a lot" of character's builds but honestly it's fine and unless you run multiple main dps that get overridden and for some reason need Bennett for all of them then it doesn't really matter. Yes Bennett is very strong but you yourself have made videos talking about how Bennett is a crutch and you don't need him at all to do crazy good damage. If you have pyro characters that would benefit from his C6 and aren't running the dps that get hurt by pyro infusion then it is a good constellation. Personally I will activate it if I ever get it because I don't care about the characters it hurts and if I ever decide to use them I just won't use Bennett with them.

  16. C6 makes Benneth a more balanced character. His C1and C6 should be swapped. If Benneth has a bad time lore wise, the player should also, that's the price for ultimate power.

  17. People parroting "C6 Bennett bad", at this point in the game, have little understanding of how the current comps' synergies work. Nowadays literally no one besides Xiangling (not even Xiao & Eula) absolutely needs Bennett so the C6 infusion is negligible.

    Frankly, you feeling the need to slot Bennett into every comp is a "you" issue, not a C6 Bennett issue.

  18. I just c6 my bennet. I absolutely can't stand this exclamation mark and my mental health is already hanging on a strand.
    I use Eula, but her team is Eula-Kayea-Lisa-Zhongli, so I don't really need a healer and a buffer
    But my Diluc and Xiangling are really happy now :3

  19. Terrible example. You had a better example in eula. Ayaka doesn't want a Bennet in her team anyways.

    Also the constellation is amazing… The fact we cant turn it off is the bad. Currently Bennet doesn't ruin many teams since most of the time either the character's infusion can't be overridden, like Xiao, or they don't want a Bennet anyways and would rather get a battery/vv/sub dps instead… The problem is the future, we don't know if mihoyo is going to fuck up and release a character that works well with Bennet but their infusion can be overridden

  20. As a Eula C6 Bennett is the worst thing u can do if u want to go for a high phys dmg and burst set up.

    People are forgetting the real reason why it's bad… Bennett c6 has the potential to ruins dmg on several team as you will be applying too much pyro (if character normal atk is affected by Bennett c6) therefore removing the element u intended to cause a reaction. This can be mitigated by simply not using ur normal atk or use characters than bennettc6 cannot infuse pyro.
    This is easy. However u can simply just not activate his c6 and bennett make ur life simpler without having to know or learn all these things.

  21. I have to disagree. The characters that bennett's C6 works against them arguably don't need him. Who? Eula he's not on her best team. Keqing? She's not curently meta relevant. Ayaka? Agian he's not a part of her best team. So if it's "situationaly" bad to go with C6 bennett , does that make it actually bad? I don't think it does because just like you can say that it's bad for this character you could also say it's good that other character.

  22. …But unless you're doing damage showcase (which 99% will just be of her burst which is unaffected by Bennett's C6), who tf runs Bennett with Ayaka anyway? 🤨

    Like, seriously, I'm not even an Ayaka main, but I'm pretty sure her only workable team consists of:
    1) Off-field hydro enabler to enable freeze (Kokomi, Mona, Xingqiu)
    2) Another cryo unit for resonance, battery, etc (Rosaria, Diona, Shenhe, Ganyu)
    3) 4VV anemo grouper who can pack and freeze everything in place for her AOE attack, as well as buffing/debuffing (Sucrose, Kazuha, Venti)
    AKA even if your Bennett isn't C6, you don't run him with Ayaka anyway, so…what's the problem then?

    Sorry, IMO, anyone who still says Bennett's C6 absolutely ruins him no matter what are either just not really looking at the current situation of the game, or you still main physical Keqing or Razor for some reason (because I heard even Eula's best team no longer has Bennett in it now as well? I don't know current situation with Keqing's and Razor's team since hardly anyone play those anymore, so can't really say for them) Literally every recent characters like Raiden, Itto or Ayato now cannot be overridden by his C6, we haven't got any new physical DPS since Eula and probably won't for a long while as well, and recently, there has been growing trend of specific supports who are stronger than Bennett in the situation they're built for like Sara, Gorou, Shenhe and Yunjin that tbh, I believe before we'll even get the next DPS who might potentially be ruined by Bennett's C6 for real, Bennett would've been pushed out of more and more teams, including teams for those said new DPS, because of these specific supports…unless you insisted on still using Bennett even when there are better and more suitable supports available already…*shrug*

    Tbh, I feel like this is actually HYV's subtle way of fixing the "C6 Bennett ruins the game" problem, just keep on making new DPS characters who specifically is unaffected by C6 Bennett's infusion as well as new support character who overshadow him in variety of situations that they'll naturally bump Bennett out of said teams anyway, if the player is actually motivated to better their team instead of fixating on just using Bennett for everything, even where he no longer belongs.

    TL;DR: Meh, it wasn't even that bad anymore, if people actually care to think about it for a sec. Most of the claims behind C6 Bennett's paranoia are getting less and less relevant now as previous characters who were incompatible with Bennett's C6 have increasingly less and less chance of actually needing Bennett in their team in the first place as their meta team develops and newer support characters got introduced, recent characters' attacks cannot be overriden by Bennett's C6 infusion anyway, and newer supports that're tailor-made for specific situations being pumped out every couple of patches that eventually, there'll just be specific support for every situations, most likely even before the next DPS character who might be ruined by Bennett's C6 even. If you still don't want to C6 him now, then that's up to you, but IMO, eventually you'll just realize there's no point in keeping him at C5 because of the above, so…*shrug*

  23. To people who say to c6 Bennett, what if they release a pyro unit later on that does pyro infusion way better? There is reason why c6 Bennett is not well liked. Sure, Bennetts ult will give you pyro infusion but does he do it well? No. You have to be in the Aoe for that and you miss out on buff from when ur c5.

    Considering the fact that we can’t toggle constellations, it is definitely recommended you do not c6 Bennett. I’ve seen c6 Bennett in action, and the infused pyro damage barely procs anyways.
