Cookie Run: Kingdom Boss Hunt Event Guide
Understanding Boss Hunt
Boss Hunt allows players to assemble a team of Cookies using a specific number of Battle Points and engage in battles against various bosses. Your goal is to clear as many difficulty levels as possible during a season, with your ranking determined by the percentage of damage dealt to the bosses on the highest difficulty level reached.
Assembling Your Team and Applying Battle Tactics
For each stage of Boss Hunt, you’ll need to use the given number of Battle Points to assemble your team. After completing a boss run, you’ll earn Battle Points, which can be used to apply Battle Tactics. These tactics are buffs that are activated at the start of battles and vary in Battle Point cost.
| BATTLE COST PER COOKIE’S RARITY | REGULAR BATTLE POINTS | CHALLENGE BATTLE POINTS |
|---|---|---|
| Common | 4 | 5 |
| Rare | 12 | 15 |
| Epic and Special | 20 | 25 |
| Super Epic | 28 | 35 |
| Ancient, Legendary and Dragon | 36 | 45 |
If needed, you have the option to spend Crystals to add ten times the Battle Points for a single stage, up to three times a day. However, keep in mind that any purchased points will vanish after the end of that battle, regardless of the outcome.
Battle Buffs & Effects
Understanding the vulnerabilities and buffs of the boss enemies is crucial for success in Boss Hunt. Here are some key factors to consider:
- Vulnerabilities to Elements: Certain bosses are vulnerable to specific elements. Attacking them with Cookies capable of dealing damage of the respective type will result in increased damage.
- Vulnerabilities to Status Effects: Some bosses are vulnerable to particular status effects. If a boss is vulnerable, the corresponding effects will be more effective against them. However, if a boss is immune to specific effects, they will not be affected.
- Fatigue: Bosses will accumulate Fatigue when subjected to movement, attack, or skill-impairing effects or vulnerable status effects. Once their Fatigue meter is full, they become incapacitated and receive additional damage.
- Rage: Bosses with the Rage property will have their Rage meter increase at given intervals. When the meter is full, the boss gains the Rage buff. Incapacitating a boss due to Fatigue will decrease their Rage meter, preventing them from gaining the Rage buff.
- Weakening: Failing to clear a stage repeatedly will result in the boss gaining a Weakening debuff. The debuff’s potency increases based on the damage dealt to the boss, up to a maximum of +3. However, clearing the stage will reset the Weakening debuff.
Difficulty Levels, Bosses & Rewards
Boss Hunt features difficulty levels ranging from Level F to Level A. Players start from Level F and progress through each difficulty level by clearing all seven stages. The same set of seven bosses will be encountered in each stage, consisting of the following:
- Cakeberus
- Royal Gardener
- Bachalomoth the Dreamer
- Remorseful Sugar Swan
- Choco Werehound Princess
- Fiery Star’s Wrath
- ??? (Berserk Dark Cacao Cookie)
Upon completing each run, you’ll earn Tactician’s Medals, a currency used to purchase items in the Boss Hunt Shop. At the end of the event, you’ll receive additional rewards based on your ranking, including Crystals, EXP Star Jelly, Shining Glitter Cookie Soulstones, and Coins.
Recommended Team Compositions
