Ben turns blocks into counterattacks and a team shield. He trades fast Stun buildup for protection, with DEF supporting both his damage and shielding.
Defensive support who blocks attacks and shields the team.
Bring him in for an enemy attack, block with EX, finish the follow-up, then return to the carry with the shield active.
Initial DEF contributes to both his ATK and team shield. The EX follow-up turns defense into a lasting team benefit.
The temporary shield used while holding block is not the same as the team shield. Skipping the EX follow-up misses the latter.
Read the enemy attack → EX block / counter → Press EX again for the follow-up → Hand off the team shield → Refresh when needed
A Fire or Belobog teammate activates the shield's CRIT Rate bonus.
Holding block is not permanent invulnerability.
Ultimate restores Assist Points as well as dealing damage.
DEF investment supports his core role without pretending he is a conventional ATK carry.

EX and Ultimate bonuses suit counter damage; shielded blocks do not trigger its HP-loss Energy.


Use Basic attacks and EX counters to maintain the ATK effects.

Extra Ultimates improve burst uptime; do not assume this setup works equally without her.


These slots describe damage-focused Ben. A shield-first build instead values DEF; the two goals are not interchangeable.
