8Pastry Cookie
Praise The Pastry
Pastry Cookie is a great Ranged hero for beginner or mid-level players trying to get to grips with the Ranged type as a whole. When using her special skill, Pastry Cookie will fire her Lightbringer Arrow at the enemy team. The arrow not only damages the nearest enemy, but it also boosts her team by increasing their attack speed and damage with regular attacks for ten seconds.
7Twizzly Gummy Cookie
Gettin’ Twizzy With It
Twizzly Gummy Cookie is the answer to the question “What do you get when you crossJinx fromLeague of Legendswith a cookie?” This chaotic purveyor of mischief and mayhem uses her Electrojelly Gun to fire laser beams and deal significant damage to the enemy team. The Twizzly Beam special sees Twizzly Gummy Cookie firing a strong electric laser beam from her overloaded gun. Her critical damage is increased when she fires and any enemies in the line of fire receive the Zapped debuff. Twizzly Beam also briefly disrupts any enemy health shields.
Her skill can be upgraded to the Blast from the Future ability with Magic Candy. When active, Twizzly Gummy Cookie’s Electrojelly Gun deals even more damage, adds some critical damage, and can stack its Zap debuffs. The skill will also buff any Electricity type allies. Twizzly Gummy Cookie is a fun Ranged Cookie to play around with, even if she isn’t the strongest in the long run.
6Rye Cookie
It’s High Noon
Much like Twizzly Gummy Cookie, Rye Cookie is a gun-slinging Ranged Cookie. Rye Cookie can become incredibly powerful when she is leveled up, though it can take some time to get her to that peak. Her Final Showdown skill hones in on the enemy with the lowest health, and launches multiple rounds at them to cause Fire damage. The speed of her attacks is also increased when the skill is active.
With Magic Candy, Rye Cookie learns the Best Shot in the Kingdom skill, which does even more damage and burns any enemies hit by both skill attacks and regular attacks. This fiery cowgirl Cookie can become agreat asset to a teamcomposition if players choose to level her up and invest in her special skills.
5Tarte Tatin Cookie
Hunter Of Dragons
With her cannon in hand, Tarte Tatin Cookie is a force to be reckoned with and an effective Ranged hero inCookie Run: Kingdom. The large cannon that Tarte Tatin Cookie uses as her weapon is designed to take on dragons, so it’s no surprise that it is particularly powerful.
When using her Cannonade skill, Tarte Tatin Cookie will fire her cannon into the middle of the enemy team. Those hit with the cannonball receive the Burn debuff and any boss enemies are hit with extra damage. When the skill is active, her enemies gain the Shackles debuff - which traps those affected - and her Cooldown is reduced.
After Cannonade has been used a few times, Tarte Tatin Cookie will fire a more damaging cannonball. Her attack will also increase when she or her teammates successfully defeat a boss or regular enemy. Tarte Tatin Cookie is a great choice for a strong Cookie who can dish out tons of Burn damage.
4Caramel Arrow Cookie
Sweet But Deadly
Caramel Arrow Cookieis another great choice for a Ranged Cookie, as she is versatile enough to target single and multiple enemies. Her Arrow of Resolution special skill deals Darkness damage, targets one enemy, and leaves an Arrow Mark on them. She will rush at the enemy and the Arrow Mark will explode. The damage caused by this is proportional to the maximum health points of the enemy targeted with the Arrow Mark, though this is capped at 300,000 damage. Caramel Arrow Cookie will also become immune to debuffs when she uses this skill.
With her Finality of Resolution Magic Candy skill, Caramel Arrow Cookie spreads out her attack to hit up to six enemies and deal area damage. Her attack damage, critical chance, and damage resistance are also increased when the Consuming Darkness debuff is applied to the enemy, and her final hit will do some extra Darkness damage. Upgrading her Magic Candy Skill makes Caramel Arrow Cookie all the more powerful as a Ranged Cookie, as she can then spread out the damage among more of the enemy team.
3Sherbert Cookie
Frosted Delight
Sherbert Cookie is one of the stronger Ranged Cookies who canunleash a tirade of Frostand Ice damage upon enemies with his Frost Shards special skill. Sherbet Cookie sends out 15 frost shards and splits them among the enemy team, with each shard initially doing 39.3% Ice damage. Additional damage can be done if the attack stacks up, with the shards causing up to 49.2% Ice damage to Cookies and 15% Ice damage to any other enemy when stacked to the maximum amount.
As well as this, there is a chance for enemies to become Frozen when hit with the shards, with Frozen targets receiving more damage when they thaw. Sherbert Cookie is partially immune to Freezing, and he has a buff called Warm Light of Life, which converts any healing that goes beyond his maximum health points and transfers it to an HP shield.
2Crème Brûlée Cookie
Practical Pianist
A musical prodigy and an excellent Ranged character, Crème Brûlée Cookie is a valuable hero for players to have on their team. When his Accelerando skill is active, Crème Brûlée Cookie gains a buff to improve his Light damage. His regular attacks target the enemy with the highest attack but can target others when leveled up. When stacked, Crème Brûlée Cookie’s Light damage will ignore some enemy damage resistance and target those vulnerable to element damage.
The Mysterious Melody buff is also applied when Accelerando is active, increasing attack speed and making allies resistant to debuffs for a brief time. When leveled up, the buff allows for additional damage and faster attack speeds.
1Golden Cheese Cookie
It Ain’t Easy Being Cheesy
Golden Cheese Cookieis the queen and founder of the Egyptian-inspired Golden Cheese Kingdom, but she is also the best Ranged character players will find in the game. When using Brilliance of the Absolute, Golden Cheese Cookie hurls her Spear of Radiance, which does a lot of Earth-type damage, up to eight times when facing five or more enemies. She receives an additional spear for every enemy defeated, though this is capped at twelve spears. Enemies hit by her spear gain a debuff that enhances any Earth-type damage inflicted on them.
Golden Cheese Cookie can also use the Spear of the Absolute, which removes enemy buffs and deals regular and Explosion damage. The Sarcophagus of Gold skill can only be used once per battle, and it can be a life-saving ability. Golden Cheese Cookie will briefly lock herself within a Sarcophagus and generate a shield around it. The shield can also protect allies, absorb damage, and provide immunity to Knockback effects.
Golden Cheese Cookie takes the top spot thanks to her versatility. She can deal hefty damage, but can also protect herself and her allies. If players are lucky enough to unlock her in the gacha, they are sure to find her an asset to any team.
