The latest update for Cookie Run: Kingdom celebrates its fifth anniversary by introducing a delightful new character, Mold Dough Cookie, who partners with the formidable Dark Enchantress Cookie. While they share elemental damage, Mold Dough brings a unique skill set and positioning in Arena battles that sets him apart from his witchy counterpart. This guide aims to provide you with the optimal toppings and biscuit builds for Mold Dough, ensuring you can maximize his potential in the game.
Mold Dough Cookie is classified as a charge-type character, designed primarily for frontline engagement. His aggressive play style allows him to advance towards enemies, dealing significant damage and knocking some of them back. His main ability inflicts 275.6% damage, and upon completion, unleashes heavy area-of-effect (AoE) damage on opponents.
One of Mold Dough’s standout features is his ability to enter Gem Frenzy mode. In this state, he suffers from Injury, reminiscent of Dark Enchantress Cookie’s abilities, as his health declines. However, during this time, his normal attacks become supercharged, allowing him to deliver even more devastating blows to enemies. It’s worth noting that while in Gem Frenzy mode, he is unable to activate his primary charge skill.
Remarkably, upon the first defeat in Gem Frenzy, Mold Dough lingers on the battlefield for a brief moment, giving him another chance to continue his onslaught. Should he survive this temporary state, he enters a period of exhaustion during which he moves faster but is stunned for 10 seconds, simultaneously granting temporary immunity from damage to his teammates. When combined with Dark Enchantress Cookie, both characters inflict enhanced chaos-type damage, further increasing their effectiveness in battle.
To maximize Mold Dough’s impact in Cookie Run: Kingdom, selecting the right toppings is crucial. Unlike Dark Enchantress Cookie, Mold Dough benefits from a full attack build without any negative caps or restrictions. The ideal choice is to equip five pieces of Looming Dark Raspberry toppings. These variants of Searing Raspberry offer improved substats and can be conveniently acquired from the Event Shop.
For players lacking Looming Dark toppings, five Searing Raspberry M toppings serve as a worthy alternative. Depending on your team’s composition, transitioning to five pieces of Looming Dark Almond or Solid Almond M can bolster Mold Dough’s defensive capabilities, making him a sturdy support for other damage dealers.
When it comes to tarts, Searing Raspberry Tart M is a solid pick for an attack-oriented build, while Solid Almond Tart M is better suited for those focusing on damage resistance. As for Beascuits, the Legendary Chewy Beascuit featuring Damage Resist substats is highly recommended, though Attack Speed can be a valuable alternative to help Mold Dough charge his abilities quicker.
With these strategies in mind, players can unlock Mold Dough Cookie’s full potential in Cookie Run: Kingdom, elevating their gameplay to new heights while enjoying the festivities of the anniversary update.
