Dark Enchantress Cookie Build and Best Toppings in Cookie Run Kingdom

By newsgame

Fans of Cookie Run Kingdom who follow the game’s lore closely and have unlocked all Beast and Ancient Cookies have quietly waited for the arrival of the greatest witch of all time, Dark Enchantress Cookie. That wish has finally come true with the 5th Anniversary update.

Now that this evil antagonist has joined the CRK roster, the meta is set to be heavily shaken, and she’ll likely remain a strong presence in Arena teams for a long time. As a result, players who pulled her from the gacha banner will want to know how to build her effectively. This guide breaks down her skills and also covers the ideal Toppings and Beascuit build for Dark Enchantress Cookie in Cookie Run Kingdom.

First things first, her rarity is Magic. Not only does she cast spells on enemies from the middle row, but she also consumes Magic Energy when using her skills, which increases her damage and ATK accordingly. Her main ability is summoning an abyssal onto the battlefield that chains some foes. This improves their cooldowns while reducing their HP. They also lose their HP shields and can’t apply new ones. Non-targeted cookies become stunned. After a short time, the abyssal deals damage to all enemy cookies, applying Injury, Dark Enchantress Curse, and turning them into Failed Creations (more on this below).

She can turn Epic and lower-rarity cookies into Failed Creations, which means they get stunned, take constant damage, and share that damage with each other. When a Failed Creation is defeated, it heals Dark Enchantress Cookie, so you really don’t want to use any of them on your team when facing her.

Plus, she can do the same to the highest-ATK Beast, Ancient, Dragon, Legendary, or Super Epic cookie. The Failed Creation effect can’t be removed by buffs or debuffs, so you’ll need to put a lot of strategy into team-building when going up against her. When a team member or an enemy is defeated, she instantly gains power. Like Shadow Milk Cookie, she can revive herself after being defeated once she reaches her cap during a fight, which significantly raises her damage as well.

Dark Enchantress Cookie’s build is quite confusing. Even though she’s a damage dealer, boosting her ATK through toppings can increase her skill cooldown (something we actually want to reduce so she can cast her skill as fast as possible). She already has a 16-sec cooldown, and focusing too much on cooldown toppings can hurt her overall damage output. On top of that, both stats have caps that can’t be pushed past. Because of this, going fully into either cooldown or attack doesn’t feel ideal at the moment.

The best toppings for Dark Enchantress Cookie in Cookie Run Kingdom are three pieces of Looming Dark Raspberry and two pieces of Looming Dark Chocolate. These can be easily picked up from the event shop for 1,500 Crystals. If you don’t have those yet, running two Swift Chocolate M and three Searing Raspberry M works as a solid alternative. Make sure to prioritize cooldown, DMG Resist, and ATK sub-stats on all toppings.

For Tarts, Searing Raspberry Tart M is the best option, ideally with high ATK stats, so keep crafting them in the mines until you get a good roll. If your cooldown isn’t capped at thirty-five percent, you can swap to a Swift Chocolate Tart M. However, if the cap is already reached, using a Chocolate Tart becomes a waste.

As for Beascuits, the best choice for Dark Enchantress Cookie is a Legendary Zesty Beascuit stacked with DMG Resist Bypass stats, since this helps her stay effective in fights and push through enemy defenses.
