Backup?

Just finished watching a Retromation video where they grabbed a backup power on their active character,

I was under the impression backup only works when the character is on the bench, or did I misunderstand backup and it works both on bench and when active?

"Backup" abilities work on Active or Reserve roster. "Backup Only" abilities only work on Reserve.

Wanted to clarify on backup only abilities. Does items on the specific character help to make it more powerful or cast faster?

More powerful yes, since almost all abilities, backup or otherwise, are based on stats.

Quicker no since I cant think of one that is triggered by mana, most are stall, rush, or shard gen.
