Cookie Run: Kingdom introduced an Awakened version of Dark Cacao Cookie, an Ancient+ Cookie that has been released in the 5.6 Version ‘Dark Resolution’s Glorious Return’ update. This is an introduction of a new big upgrade on the Ancient Cookies that brings about a new kit, stats, and appearance. This guide will help you with how to build Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord), how to obtain him, and the ways to level him up.
Ancient Cookies: Awakened Abilities Explanation
Awakened Ancient Cookies are a part of their original upgrade where the Cookies will have a new set of Skill, gameplay, kit, character design, and background upgrades. Once you Awaken your Ancient Cookie, they cannot go back to their original abilities.
Awakening an Ancient Cookie acts similar to ascending it. Players will need to get 20x Soulprisms (similar to Soulstones) and awaken their Cookie. Or they can pull on the limited-time Nether-gacha to obtain 1 copy of the Cookie. Keep in mind that Awaken Cookies are an extension of the original Ancients, and are not a separate entity.
How to obtain Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) in Cookie Run: Kingdom
Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) is an Ancient Cookie and hence can be obtained through the Gacha. Legendary and the Cookies above the Rarity get their Limited Rate up Banner when they are initially released, where players need to obtain exclusive wish currency to pull for them.
- Rainbow Shell Gallery: Located inside Touc’s Trade Harbor after you upgrade it. The SoulPrisms can only be exchanged with the Rainbow Pearls currency which can be obtained by shipping various goods through the Ship Harbor. You can obtain 1 SoulPrism Cookie. The Shop resets every 2 Days so players have to keep a lookout on which SoulPrism Cookies comes out every rotation.
Check out the Neither-gacha, where you can meet Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) and obtain his SoulPrisms. Collect Light of True Resolution through various events or from the shop to use the Nether-gacha. In the Nether-gacha, Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) and Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord)’s Soulstones will appear with a higher chance. After x150 Nether-gacha pulls, you can receive a guaranteed Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord). After the Nether-gacha event is over, the remaining Light of True Resolution will be converted to Coins.

Character Introduction
Once, alone sovereign’s head bowed in despair behind the impenetrable walls of his castle. Shrouded in darkness, his past was riddled with trials and tribulations—challenges that would have crumbled ordinary Cookies. Enemies tried to infiltrate the walls, greedy hands sought the crown, and even his son betrayed him. Despite his bitter and destitute life, two things never lost their shine: his pride as a ruler and his resolve, pitch dark as obsidian.
Even when his dough crumbled from scaling the rocky mountains, even when he lost everything and everyone dear to him, his resolution remained unwavering and true. Now, he stands stronger than ever, commanding the two dragons that resting on his shoulders. This Cookie does not cower behind walls. He stands tall and regal, revered by his loyal subjects. His sword is raised high in triumph, sworn to protect the Cookie world, and his name is none other than… Dark Cacao Cookie.

Best Toppings for Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) in Cookie Run: Kingdom
Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) has an assortment of Toppings to choose from depending on what you prefer in his build. As such there are three recommended Toppings to choose from depending on what you prefer in his build.
Players can opt for giving her a full 5-piece of Swift Chocolate Toppings to reduce his Skill cooldown even further than 13 seconds. With a reduced Cool down he can spam his Skill more consistently and hence provide dmg, buffs, and debuffs to the enemy team.
Name | Description |
---|---|
Swift Chocolate | Eat before it melts! This chocolate can decrease the Cookie’s Cooldown. Equip 5: -5% Cooldown Sub-stat Priority: ATK = DMG Resist > Cooldown >Crit Resist > Crit > Speed |
Solid Almond | A solid almond like this one can increase the Cookie’s DMG Resist. Equip 5: +5% DMG Resist Sub-stat Priority: ATK = DMG Resist > Cooldown >Crit Resist > Crit > Speed |
Searing Raspberry | A searing berry like this one can increase the Cookie’s ATK. Equip 3: +3% ATK Equip 5: +5% DMG Resist Sub-stat Priority: Cooldown > ATK >DMG Resist >Crit Resist > Crit > Speed |
Players can opt for giving them a full 5-piece of Solid Almond Toppings to get higher DMG Resistance as his cool-down is low, plus he is in the front lines. As such stacking damage resistance during battle is beneficial to last him longer during the fight.
Lastly, since Dark Cacao Cookie (Dragon Lord) is a Charge Cookie and deals a high amount of damage, a full 5-piece set of Searing Raspberry Cookie is another viable option that can be recommended. This can help increase his damage potential and dishing out high numbers.
