Ben Bigger
Who is Ben Bigger?
Ben Bigger is a 4-star Fire Defense agent from Belobog Heavy Industries — the youngest member of the "Cunning Hares" adjacent circle, Ben is a massive, gentle giant who uses his oversized body and boxing gloves to protect his allies. As a Defense-type agent, his role is creating shields for the team and providing survival support. He is one of the most accessible Defense agents on the standard banner and is a niche pick for Fire teams where his element and Outro provide minor bonus synergy.
Kit Summary
Punch combo generating Forte gauge progressively.
Creates a teamwide Fire-elemental shield absorbing incoming damage scaled with Ben's DEF stat; his primary contribution.
At max Forte, delivers a powerful punch dealing Fire DMG and briefly stunning a single target while reinforcing the active shield.
An extended punch cinematic dealing Fire AoE damage and creating a very large shield for the whole team — his strongest defensive cooldown.
On swap-out, grants the next character +15% Fire DMG Bonus for 14 seconds.
Build Guide
🔮 Best Relic / Echo Set
Inferno Metal (2pc) + Shockstar Disco (2pc) or any DEF-focused set — his value is entirely shield scaling and Outro buff, not personal damage.
⚔ Best Light Cone / Weapon
Bunny Band (4★ Defense W-Engine) or any DEF%-scaling W-Engine — DEF% is his only meaningful stat for shield strength.
📊 Substats Priority
👥 Best Teams
Fire niche: Burnice + Ben + Lucy (Ben shields reduce burst damage risk while Lucy buffs Fire DMG; Burnice main Anomaly DPS)
Budget survival: Any Fire DPS + Ben + [healer] for content where incoming damage requires a shield rather than additional support output
F2P Verdict
Ben is obtainable on the standard Permanent Channel banner — freely accessible for all players.
His shield scales with DEF — invest in DEF% rather than ATK/CRIT stats.
For Fire teams, Koleda (Fire Stun enabling DPS windows) and Lucy (Fire ATK% buff) generally provide more team value than Ben's shield in standard content.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Ben Bigger ever used in competitive content?
Rarely — in most competitive contexts, offensive support (Lucy ATK buff, Stun agents) outperforms defensive utility. Ben sees use in casual play or specific content with very high unavoidable burst damage.
Can Ben's shield stack with Taoqi (also a 4★ Defense agent)?
Only one Defense agent is typically used per team (three agents total). Running Ben and Taoqi simultaneously removes two offensive support slots. Choose one Defense agent when you need shielding.
Does Ben work in non-Fire teams?
His shield functions regardless of element — it absorbs any type of incoming damage. However, his Outro Fire DMG Bonus wastes value outside Fire compositions. For non-Fire teams, a neutral Defense or Support agent is better.
