Cookie Run Kingdom: Shadow Milk Cookie Toppings and Beascuits guide

Cookie Run Kingdom: Shadow Milk Cookie Toppings and Beascuits guide
  • He is the Beast enemy of Pure Vanilla Cookie
  • I recommend giving Shadow Milk Cookie full Cooldown on everything (including a Beascuit with 4x Cooldown)
  • His skill damage is directly proportional to the number of times he casts his skill, Act 1: Lies

The long-awaited Shadow Milk Cookie is finally here, and he is something else. He is unlike what I personally expected, and honestly, I couldn't be happier. His skill is surprising, just like him, and if you want to know how to build him, this is the guide for you.

Despite being a Magic cookie (Magic cookies are known to be damage dealers for the most part), he is a Magic cookie who can deal damage AND inflict massive debuffs. He can survive for a long time, remove debuffs, and once he reaches maximum stacks, he deals immense damage. Shadow Milk Cookie is incredibly powerful, easily being an S+ tier cookie.

He was released alongside Candy Apple Cookie, who uses the same Radiant toppings as him, so if you're curious about her, go ahead and read the guide I've written for her! 

Now let's take a look at the best Toppings and Beascuits for Shadow Milk Cookie in CRK!

About Shadow Milk Cookie in Cookie Run: Kingdom

Shadow Milk Cookie is a Magic cookie, placed in the Middle line. He is a Beast cookie, and right now, you can only get his Soulstones from the exclusive gacha or Shop. 

Skill:

Act 1: Lies act 1 lies skill icon
Shadow Milk Cookie channels the energy of his other-realm to begin a grant spectacle of Deceit. Inflicts Puppet Show at the enemy with the lowest HP (targets Cookies first excluding Safeguarded Cookies). The opponent's Shadow Milk Cookie cannot become a target unless no other possible targets are left. For the duration of Puppet Show, both the target and the nearby enemies sustain periodic damage. The effect ends with a Grand Finale. Grand Finale deals damage to all enemies, deals damage proportional to Puppet Show's target, and applies Taint on them. If the target is defeated before the end of Puppet Show's duration, a Soul Phantom will appear in their place. A portion of the damage sustained by the Soul Phantom until the end of Puppet Show will be inflicted as Grand Finale's extra damage.

If Shadow Milk Cookie is defeated, he will assume his Shadow Form. He will summon his Puppets to fool the enemies and retreat to the other-realm where he will gain Power of Deceit. The Shadow Form effect will last until the Puppets are defeated.

At the beginning of the battle, Shadow Milk Cookie will summon the Eye of Truth. Depending on the number of debuffs received by the team, including Shadow Milk Cookie himself, the Eye of Truth will gain stacks of Truth. More stacks of Truth will be gained whenever Shadow Milk Cookie uses his skill. At a certain number of stacks, the Eye of Truth will remove all debuffs from the team and increase the amount of damage dealt by Shadow Milk Cookie at the expense of a greater amount of damage received.

When Shadow Milk Cookie gains Power of Deceit, the Eye of Truth will transform into the Eye of Deceit, periodically gaining new stacks of Truth. At a certain number of stacks, it will emit a Tenet of Deceit, dealing damage and resetting the duration of Taint on the target (damage proportional to Max HP is capped at 300,000).

The best Toppings for Shadow Milk Cookie 

the best toppings for shadow milk cookie in crk

You want to give your Shadow Milk Cookie the Deceitful Resonant toppings with lots of Cooldown.

  • 5x Deceitful Chocolate with Cooldown (mandatory), ATK, DMG Resist 
  • 5x Swift Chocolate with Cooldown (mandatory), ATK, DMG Resist

I strongly recommend going for ATK and DMG Resist as well and give him your best, highest-cooldown Toppings you have. 

Shadow Milk Cookie's best Beascuit setup

full cooldown beascuit for shadow milk cookie

On Shadow Milk Cookie I recommend the Legendary 4th Anniversary Zesty Beascuit with foll Cooldown. It is difficult to obtain, but it is worth it. The difficult part lies in getting a 4x Cooldown on your Beascuit. 

  • Cooldown (mandatory!)
  • DMG Resist 
  • ATK

The main reason I recommend going for a 4x Cooldown Beascuit is because his power is proportional to how much he casts. Honestly speaking, I have full Cooldown and in some battles, he deals the most damage by just endlessly stacking, without having any additional ATK (only as sub-stats on some of the Toppings).

Should you invest in Shadow Milk Cookie?

YES! He is one of the 5 Beast Cookies of CRK: Mystic Flour Cookie, Burning Spice Cookie, himself, Silent Salt Cookie and Eternal Sugar Cookie, and they are all incredibly powerful. You should try to get him and upgrade him as much as you possibly can.
