In mobile gacha gameCookie Run: Kingdom, players collect cookies to fight against enemies and other players. In order to succeed in the Kingdom Arena, or proceed through world exploration, you need to build a good team. This often includes choosing a fitting selection of cookies, leveling them up, and equipping them with toppings and “beascuits.”

“Treasures” are collectible items which can be acquired from their own gacha,and can be leveled up in the same way the player would level up their cookies. Though you don’t absolutely need them for a team build, if you’re particularly struggling somewhere, or want to rank highly in the arena, then you need to pick the most fitting ones for your team. Up to three treasures can be used at a time — so, which ones are the best and most convenient?

Cookie Run Kingdom Treasure Gatekeeper Ghost Horn

10Gatekeeper Ghost Horn

Great As A Starter Treasure

The Gatekeeper Ghost Horn is likely a surprising treasure to see here, but it earns its place on the list due to its versatility and ability to be quickly maxed out, making it a decent choice for new players, or those who have been unlucky with gathering other treasures.The treasure increases the defense stat of all the cookies in your team, up to a maximum of 45.0%, which can greatly improve the team’s survivability - especially when it comes to defense or charge cookies.

What are the team combination bonuses and the best teams for the Arena and Guild Battle in Cookie Run: Kingdom?

The Durianeer’s Squeaky Flamingo Tube could be used for a similar purpose- It increases the maximum HP of the two cookies in your team with the most health. This is less useful in the kingdom arena, since you’ll likely face off against several cookies that target the opponent with the highest attack as opposed to HP. Even though the Gatekeeper Ghost Horn is a common treasure, and the Durianeer’s Squeaky Flamingo Tube is an epic, it’s a safer choice to add extra defense to all cookies (unless you know your opponent will be focusing on your tanks).

9The Insignia of the Indomitable Knights

Last In The Arena For As Long As Possible

The Insignia of the Indomitable Knights is specifically useful in the arena. With this treasure active, your cookies will be healed for a large amount of their maximum HP whenever one of their team members falls. It also grants a second effect when the last non-safeguarded cookie on your team loses all their health -instead of taking a fatal blow, they will become immune to damage and debuffsfor up to 9 seconds, depending on the treasure’s level.

This treasure can only be obtained from the Guild Gacha.

Since this treasure relies on cookies being defeated,it’s not ideal for earning all the stars in World Exploration.However, in other game modes, this is a great way of making sure at least one cookie on your team survives, and can be the last extra push a team needs to come out victorious. I’ve faced countless teams in the arena where I only lost by a thread, because they were using this treasure.

8Grim-Looking Scythes

More Critical Hits For Your Team

There are two types of Grim-Looking Scythes inCookie Run: Kingdom. The first scythe to be added was a rare treasure, but it later received an epic variant called the “Grim-Looking Electrifying Scythe.“The rare scythe increases the chance of allies landing critical hits by up to 30%,whilst the “Electrifying” variant increases the chance of specifically electric-type damage attacks being critical hits by up to 50%.

Cookies Who Can Deal Electricity Damage

In most circumstances, you’ll be better off using the rare variant of this treasure.However, if your team has multiple cookies that deal electricity damage, then the epic scythe should be used — especially in game modes such as Boss Rush, which have a particular focus on certain types of elemental damage. The electrifying scythe is less useful to use in the arena — high-ranking teams rarely include Stormbringer Cookie, andDark Cacao Cookie’sattacks are more based around dark damage, even though he can zap opponents.

7Librarian’s Enchanted Robes

A Useful But Situational Treasure That’s Great To Build Around

The Librarian’s Enchanted Robes will increase the attack speed of the two cookies with the fastest speed.This is quite a situational treasure, and should only be used when you’re building a team focused on that stat. To clarify, there is a difference between attack speed and cooldown, though they do affect and compliment each other. Cooldown is the amount of time a cookie has before they can use their skill again, whilst increasing attack speed will make the actual abilities and attacks happen faster.

6Vial of Raging Dunes

Lots Of Smaller, Useful Buffs To Attack Stat And More

The Vial of Raging Dunes provides various small buffs.Equipping this treasure increases the attack stat of allied cookies by up to 30%, which makes it a good substitute for the scroll treasures — it’s also significantly powerful when paired with one of them. Another buff the treasure provides is increased resistance against critical hits.

Vampire Cookie with a magic candy and Golden Cheese Cookie both have abilities where they can revive themselves. Pure Vanilla Cookie can also revive fallen cookies when in his awakened form.

Cookie Run Kingdom Treasure Librarian’s Enchanted Robes

That’s only scratching the surface of what this treasure can do for your team —the vial of raging dunes is particularly helpful for cookies who have been revived, so you may want to consider using it with the Sugar Swan’s Shining feather. When an ally cookie is revived, the critical hit resistance granted by the treasure will double. A cookie’s revival will also trigger a powerful “sandstorm” attack against your opponent, which reduces their ability to attack by 10 seconds.

5Sugar Swan’s Shining Feather

The Sugar Swan’s Shining Feather is a treasure you may’t go wrong with. With this treasure active,the first cookie to fall in your party will be revived,with an amount of health depending on the treasure’s level. This can be very overpowered when paired with cookies likeAwakened Pure Vanilla Cookie, who can also revive allies, or cookies that can revive themselves.

Support cookies are some of the best choices for team composition in Cookie Run: Kingdom due to their versatility -which ones are the most powerful?

An ally revived with this treasure will also come back with their cooldown reset,meaning they will be able to attack immediately. This treasure is great in any circumstances, but can be especially useful when doing world exploration stages for the first time. One of the most frustrating things in this game mode is your attempt being knocked down from three to two stars at the last second, because one of your cookies couldn’t hold on for a tiny bit longer.

4Dream Conductor’s Whistle

Similar To The Insignia of the Indomitable Knights, But Less Situational

The Dream Conductor’s Whistle is another epic treasure which grants the player several different buffs. All allies will gain a buff to their frequency of critical hits at the start of battle, sothis treasure is a good match for “rush” teams.It also grants the “Dream Whistle” passive to the two strongest cookies with the highest attack stats.

This increases their attack by up to 40%, and their damage resistance by up to 20%. Similarly to the Insignia of the Indomitable Knights,if a cookie with the Dream Whistle passive dies, then the rest of the team will be healed for 30% of their maximum HP.Though the healing is less versatile than the Insignia, you’re more than likely going to want to keep your cookies alive — the Dream Conductor’s whistle provides a similar effect whilst still being useful to living cookies.

3Monocles

There are two types of monocles inCookie Run: Kingdom: the Explorer’s Monocle and the Bookseller’s Monocle. Both variants are of the epic variety.The Bookseller’s Monocle purifies all debuffs and heals up to 30% of a cookie’s max HP,whilst the Explorer’s Monocle purifies debuffs, and increases the defense and damage resistance of cookies whilst only healing up to 25%. The Explorer’s Monocle is generally more effective, but you may choose to sacrifice the extra defense for a bit more health.

2Scrolls

A Quick And Reliable Way Of Increasing Your Power

The Old Pilgrim’s scroll is an extremely reliable treasure, and increases the attacks of your cookies by up to 60%. It has a rare variant called the “Disciple’s Magic Scroll,” which can increase attack by up to 45%, and defense by up to 30%. In general,you will usually be better off prioritizing full attack over extra defense.

You cannot use two treasures of the same variant at the same time.

Cookie Run Kingdom Support Cookies - Snapdragon Cookie, Star Coral Cookie, Cream Ferret Cookie, Parfait Cookie and Peppermint Cookie With Town Square Background

With that being said, the rare variant is easier to obtain, so you should check which level you have these treasures upgraded to in case your rare scroll actually has a higher attack buff. Like the Sugar Swan feather, if you’re not working towards any specific build, or have a treasure spot open, then you should use a scroll.You are always going to benefit from an increased attack stat- though the Sugar Swan feather and Train whistle are useful, if none of your cookies end up dying, then they risk becoming obsolete compared to these final two picks.

1Jelly Watches

Cooldown Decrease Is A Safe Option In Any Scenario

There are two types of Jelly Watches inCookie Run: Kingdom: the common Squishy Jelly Watch and the epic Sleepyhead’s Jelly Watch. They are both extremely similar, and can reduce the cooldown time of all the cookies in your team by 25%. However, the Sleepyhead’s Jelly Watch has the added bonus of also increasing their attack by up to 5%.Though the extra attack is certainly useful, you should prioritize cooldown ability.Unless you’ve been playing for quite some time, or you’ve gotten particularly lucky, you’ll likely be using the Squishy watch for a while, as it’s easier to upgrade.

Shadow Milk Cookie is the newest beast in Cookie Run: Kingdom. Why is he so popular, and what has his impact been on the game?

There is not a single cookie that will not benefit from a decreased cooldown. Powerful characters such asShadow Milk Cookiedo the most damage when they can spam their ability, and healing and support cookies can keep the team alive through consistent buffing. The Jelly Watches are the best treasures to use inCookie Run: Kingdom, because they will benefit any cookie or team composition.
