Elemental Skill: Passion Overload
| Press Cooldown: | 5 seconds |
| Charge level 1 Cooldown: | 7.5 seconds |
| Charge level 2 Cooldown: | 10 seconds |
| Press Energy Generated: | 2 Pyro Elemental Particles (Press) 3 Pyro Elemental Particles (Charge Level 1) 3 Pyro Elemental Particles (Charge Level 2) |
Bennett puts all his fire and passion for adventuring into his sword. Results may vary based on how fired up he is.
This skill can be used in two ways:
Press:
Bennett throws a quick 1-hit strike with his sword dealing Pyro damage to enemies in front of him.
Hold:
Holding the skill up changes Bennett’s attack pattern based on the charge level.
Level 1:
Bennett performs an upward strike that deals 2-hit Pyro damage and launches small enemies in the air. The skill cannot launch heavier monsters.
With the 4th constellation unlocked, charge level 1 gain one more additional hit if you press the normal attack button while Bennett is executing the skill.
The additional attack does 135% more damage based on the 2nd attack’s damage.
Level 2:
Bennett launches a 3-hit combo strike that also deals Pyro damage, only higher. The last attack triggers an explosion that launches both Bennett and the target. He takes no damage from being launched.
With the Fearnaught passive talent unlocked, Bennett will not be launched by this attack as long as he’s within the Fantastic Voyage (elemental burst) AoE circle.
Lastly, the following effects apply to the whole skill whether you press or charge the elemental skill:
- Reduce the skill’s cooldown by 20% if the Rekindle passive talent is unlocked.
- The skill’s cooldown is reduced by 50% if cast within the Fantastic Voyage AoE if the Fearnaught passive talent is unlocked.

Elemental Burst: Fantastic Voyage
| Energy Cost: | 60 energy |
| Duration: | 15 seconds |
| Cooldown | 15 seconds |
Bennett leaps towards the enemy and performs a plunging attack, dealing Pyro damage and creating an Inspiration Field that lasts for 15 seconds.
Characters within the AoE of the Inspiration Field will gain the following effects:
- If the character’s HP is below 70%, their health will continuously regenerate every 1 second.
The regeneration scales off based on Bennett’s Max HP. - If the character’s HP is greater than 70%, they will gain a bonus on the attack stat. The attack bonus scales off Bennett’s base attack.
The base attack can only be influenced by the weapon and its upgrade, and Bennett’s level (attack gained through leveling up).
You can check this by going to the Character Menu>>Bennett>>Attributes>>Details. Under “ATK” the white number is Bennett’s base attack. - With the 1st constellation unlocked, there will no longer be an HP restriction when gaining the attack bonus. All characters within the skill’s AoE circle will always get an attack bonus regardless of their HP.
It also increases the attack bonus ratio by 20%. - At constellation level 6, all characters within the field will gain a 15% Pyro damage bonus and will get their weapons infused with the Pyro element.
