The *Match Made in Oven* update for *Cookie Run: Kingdom* introduced Black Forest Cookie, a powerful addition, especially for PvE battles. This tank Cookie shines in the frontline, so optimizing her toppings is key to maximizing her effectiveness.

For enhanced survivability, focus on toppings that boost her tankiness. Here are the top recommendations:
Solid Armor Set: A full five-piece set provides a 5% DMG Resistance boost. While seemingly small, this significantly extends her battlefield presence, allowing for greater damage output over time. This set is particularly effective in both PvE and PvP, enabling her to unleash her abilities multiple times before falling.
Swift Chocolate Set: This set prioritizes damage, reducing her skill cooldown by 5%. Ideal for PvE, it allows for rapid enemy elimination. However, it sacrifices survivability, making it less effective in PvP. Consider using this set in a burst-damage focused team to overwhelm enemies quickly.
Hybrid Approach (3 Solid Armor, 2 Swift Chocolate): A balanced approach offering a blend of survivability and damage. While not maximizing either stat, it provides a solid all-around performance.
Optimizing Sub-Stats
Beyond the main set, sub-stats significantly impact Black Forest Cookie's performance. Prioritize these:
- DMG Resistance
- Cooldown Reduction
- ATK
- CRIT Resistance
- HP
Strategically choose sub-stats to complement your chosen topping set. For example, if using Solid Armor, focus on Cooldown Reduction sub-stats to boost damage output. Increasing ATK sub-stats also enhances damage.
With the right toppings and sub-stats, Black Forest Cookie becomes an invaluable asset. Consider pairing her with Linzer Cookie, a top-tier support unit, for even greater synergy.
Cookie Run: Kingdom is available on iOS, Android, and PC.
