Cookie Run: Kingdom Version 5.9 Update: New Cookie Characters
Legendary Cookie: Wind Archer Cookie
- Rarity: Legendary
- Type: Ranged
- Position: Rear
A new Cookie with the Legendary Rarity has been added. Wind Archer Cookie is a Legendary Cookie that uses the skill “Last Wind.”
Skill Description: Upon transforming, Wind Archer Cookie shoots his Arrow of Gale, pushing back and stunning enemies, and applies the Trace of the Wind and Pursuer debuffs. While transformed, he will become immune to debuffs except for Curse and will shoot his Pursuer’s Arrows for his regular attacks.
The Pursuer’s Arrow attacks up to five enemies with the highest ATK and applies the Trace of the Wind and Pursuer debuffs to its targets. Once Pursuer reaches max stacks, it will explode and inflict damage proportional to the targets’ Max HP, damage nearby enemies, and apply the Trace of the Wind debuff. Wind Archer Cookie applies the Mighty Gale buff to himself whenever he shoots the Pursuer’s Arrow.
This Guardian Cookie casts Last Wind, which partially ignores the target’s DMG Resist and inflicts additional damage to enemies proportional to the number of Mighty Gale stacks. Affected enemies will be trapped in a Cyclone. When entering the battle, Wind Archer Cookie’s Max HP increases.
Cookie Run: Kingdom Version 5.9 Update: New Permanent Game Features
New Skill Mechanics and Element
Added a new skill element: Wind. Only applied for Wind-type Cookies: Wind Archer Cookie, Rebel Cookie, Pastry Cookie, Mint Choco Cookie, Kumiho Cookie.
Wind-type Cookies gain a new buff, Tailwind, that increases their ATK SPD and DMG Resist with regular attacks. With the addition of the new skill element, the following Cookies’ skills have been reworked.
Wind-type Cookie Skill Changes
1. Mint Choco Cookie
Reworked Mint Choco Cookie’s skill to match the new skill element while preserving his combat role. With level-ups, Mint Choco Cookie will deal more damage with his new ability, “Mint Gust.”
Changes: Mint Choco Cookie plays a sublime melody that increases the team’s ATK SPD, applies the Warm Breeze buff, and grants HP Shield to Wind-type Cookies. Upon playing a melodic tune, he inflicts damage on enemies with his Mint Gust and heals allies’ HP equal to a portion of the damage inflicted. Once Mint Choco Cookie gains enough Tailwind stacks, he will heal his allies once more with a refreshing performance.
2. Pastry Cookie
Pastry Cookie’s skill has been reworked to let her use her Lightbringer Arrow ricochet attack more aggressively.
Changes: Injustice shall be purged! After Pastry Cookie uses her skill, her regular attacks become stronger, and she will fire Lightbringer Bolts at up to two enemies, dealing damage. The bolts will later ricochet, dealing additional damage. Pastry Cookie will gain the Battle Prayer buff, increasing the number of targets according to her ATK SPD boost rate. She will also increase her ATK SPD and allied Wind-type Cookies’ CRIT%.
3. Rebel Cookie
Rebel Cookie’s stats have been rebalanced.
4. Kumiho Cookie
Kumiho Cookie’s stats have been rebalanced.
Resonant Toppings: Life-Sprouting Toppings
Added a new set of Resonant Toppings: Life-Sprouting Toppings.
- Life-sprouting Searing Raspberry M
- Life-sprouting Swift Chocolate M
- Life-sprouting Solid Almond M
- Life-sprouting Bouncy Caramel M
- Life-sprouting Juicy Apple Jelly M
Check out the Toppings’ tooltips for a reminder of which Cookies can be them: Wind Archer Cookie, Rebel Cookie, Mint Choco Cookie, Pastry Cookie, Kumiho Cookie. You can mix Resonant and regular Toppings of the same type in a set and still get the set effect. Resonant Toppings come with increased effect values. Resonant Toppings might have a different set of bonus effects than regular Toppings.
Treasures
- [EPIC] Twinkling Starlight Crown: The crown increases the CRIT% and CRIT DMG of the Cookie with the highest ATK for a certain period when the Cookie uses their skill. If this Cookie is defeated, the Cookie with the next highest ATK will gain the buff.
- [EPIC] Cape of the Vanquisher: Wind Pursuer’s aura increases all Cookies’ ATK SPD and increases Wind-type Cookies’ ATK SPD and DMG Resist. The cape grants HP Shield proportional to the target’s Max HP once at the beginning of the battle.

Cookie Run: Kingdom Version 5.9 Update: Miscellaneous Content and Updates
Guild Battle Improvements
Battle Progression
Each Guild Battle will last for 1 minute, with the boss’s difficulty level increasing as you deal damage. The higher the boss’s level, the higher their battle stats will become. On certain levels, their skill will be enhanced, and their appearance will change past Lv.200.
Guild Battle Tickets
Guild Battle Tickets will be spent the moment you enter the battle. You will receive your Guild Battle Ticket back if you quit without dealing any damage. However, it will not be returned if you spend a certain amount of time with the battle paused.
If you force-close the game mid-battle, you will be able to pick up from where you left off after you return. Each player can spend up to 3 minutes in the battle instance, and the battle will automatically end afterward with the last achieved score recorded.· You may quit the app (due to any reason) and resume your Guild Battle up to two times: your battle time will be reset back to 3 minutes.
