Learn about Benny's stats, growth rates, and how to best utilize him as a defensive tank in Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation. Discover his strengths and weaknesses.
Benny is a Nohr border guard with a gentle heart, despite his intimidating appearance. He's shy and often carries a charm, with bears being some of his closest friends.
Benny's stat growths make him a defensive powerhouse, particularly in Defense and Health, but he suffers from extremely low Speed. His Strength growth is decent, but his Magic growth is nonexistent.
Stat Growth Rates:
| Stat | Growth Rate |
| Health | 50% |
| Strength | 40% |
| Magic | 0% |
| Skill | 50% |
| Speed | 10% |
| Luck | 35% |
| Defense | 55% |
| Resistance | 45% |
His primary class is Knight, with Fighter as a secondary. While his Speed is a significant drawback, comparable to Arthur's luck, Benny excels as a defensive tank. His role isn't primarily to defeat enemies himself, but to absorb enemy attacks, drawing them in so your more fragile units can counter-attack safely. He also provides a defensive boost to units he supports.
If you want to improve his Speed, you can reclass Benny into his secondary class, Fighter. Additionally, learning the 'Sol' skill from the Hero class can further enhance his survivability.
Class Options:
