Cookie Run Kingdom Charcoal Cookie build guide: Best toppings and Beascuit

Charcoal Cookie is one of those unique units that thrives when paired with another specific unit in Cookie Run: Kingdom. He is a good Mage multi-hit DPS on his own, whose ability grows stronger when he defeats enemies. However, when paired with Silent Salt Cookie, his ability gets a bonus effect that helps in supporting his team. 

To maximize his potential, you will need the right setup for him. In this Cookie Run Kingdom guide, let’s discuss the best Charcoal Cookie build, including our recommended toppings, Beascuit, treasures, and team compositions.

This CRK Charcoal Cookie build will focus on this unit's overall damage. However, he is more than just a DPS for the team. Charcoal Cookie also has a unique synergy with Silent Salt Cookie, granting the aura farming knight elemental damage buff.

With that said, you will mostly focus on building Raspberry toppings with a Beascuit with Cooldown, ATK, or Dark DMG stats. Get a good balance between cooldown reduction and damage. Here is a rundown of the best toppings and Beacuits to equip for Charcoal Cookie.

You will want at least 15% or more Cooldown to spam abilities as much as possible. However, don't ignore Charcoal's overall ATK stats. He needs to kill enemies to quickly charge up his lantern and deal more damage.

Even better if you have Silent Toppings with you, as they have a better chance to provide higher stats than regular ones. You can get them through events or purchase them monthly from the shop.

Since you already have a full Searing Raspberry set as toppings, you won't need too many ATK stats on the Beascuit. You don't want any diminishing returns when building a unit. You will only be wasting resources. Focus on getting other stats like Cooldown and DMG Resist Bypass.

Charcoal Cookie in CRK is more of a PvE unit due to his mechanic. He thrives on stages where there is a lot of enemy fodder. Alternatively, you play him together with Silent Hill Cookie for the special interaction, further increasing your overall DPS. You can pair him with cookies that can provide buffs and increase his overall damage output.

There is no exact PvE lineup that fits Charcoal Cookie in CRK. You will always be adjusting your composition based on the content, especially in Beast Raids and Boss Rush events. Here is a general lineup you can follow that is viable on most stages.

Silent Salt is in the lineup mainly for the special interaction. You can swap Cream Ferret with any support like Marshmallow Bunny Cookie or Icicle Yeti Cookie. If you need more healing, go for either Doughael or Mystic Flower Cookie. These healers provide white HP, which can help extend your team's survivability.

For general use, always go for Jelly Watch for the massive Cooldown Reduction effect in most teams in CRK, especially with Charcoal Cookie. Cooldown Reduction is a very important stat in the game due to how reliant most units are on casting abilities rather than basic attacks.

The next treasure can be Old Pilgrim's Scroll for the massive 60% ATK increase. If you think you have enough ATK on your units, you can always go for the cheaper version, Disciple's Magic Scroll. This one provides a bit of ATK stats while also increasing your unit's DEF.

The third slot can be Dream Conductor's Whistle for the multiple buffs. You get CRIT%, ATK, and DMG Resist buffs with this one. If you think the stage will take a bit longer to finish, you can go for the Unyielding Berry Necklace. This one provides ATK, Knockback Resist, and CRIT%. The bonus stats also increase with each activation and stack up to 4x.
