Check out our Awakened Hollyberry build guide, including the best Toppings, Beascuits, and team compositions in Cookie Run: Kingdom.
The Ancient hero with a heart of steel in Cookie Run: Kingdom (CRK) is back with an Awakened form, Hollyberry Cookie - Aegis, and with that a new build for her new kit. Her specialty is absorbing a portion of the damage for the team. This means she can single-handedly be a damage sponge with the right team composition.
However, she is more than just a reliable tank. Her Rally Team Leader effect further enhances the damage capabilities and sustain of all steel-type cookies in the team. On top of that, she can also stun enemies to delay their attacks, making her a perfect pick in PvP.
With that said, you’re probably here for the best Awakened Hollyberry build guide and which Toppings and Beascuit to use in Cookie Run: Kingdom.

Best Awakened Hollyberry Cookie Topping and Beascuit in CRK

Considering how Awakened Hollyberry now can deal decent amount of damage and stun, on top of being a tank, your best bet is to go for the following stats on your Toppings and Beascuit:
Toppings
- Full Cooldown Toppings with Cooldown Tart
- DMG Resist, Cooldown, and HP Substats
If you can, grab some Passionate Toppings, which have a higher chance of rolling stronger stats for your cookie. You can get them in the Event Shop. The Mysterious Toppings also includes the Passionate type in its selection.
Beascuit
- Hard Beascuit
- Full Damage Resist Bypass
- Secondary Option: Cooldown, Damage Resist
Ideally, you will want to have a Legendary Beascuit. You generally won’t be needing Steel-type damage for Awakened Hollyberry so you don’t need the Steelen Hard Beascuit. Focus on getting the Damage Resist Bypass stat on all four slots. However, if you are short on resources, you can settle for Cooldown or some Damage Resist.
