Should you build Pure Vanilla Cookie in Cookie Run: Kingdom?
Pure Vanilla enjoyed arguably the longest reign at the top of a category that a Cookie has had in Cookie Run: Kingdom, as the best healer in the game since it was released until Epics like Cream Unicorn and the BTS Cookies arrived. While the founder of the Vanilla Kingdom remains a capable healer, it shed the title of being the best and got relegated to lower tiers of the meta fairly quickly.
In an effort to reverse this change, the developers released a significant buff for Pure Vanilla last month, confirming rumors of an impending buff for both playable Ancient Cookies. Read on to find out if this buff was sufficient for Pure Vanilla to win his title back, and whether new players should be investing in him.
Before getting into the specifics of the new buffs and his skill, let's go over the Cookie's new substats and skill numbers in Cookie Run: Kingdom. These numbers are of a Lv. 70 Pure Vanilla, with his skill at the same level and a full Swift Chocolate build:
The numbers for the newly buffed "Love and Peace" skill are provided below as well:
The major reason as to why Pure Vanilla fell out of the Cookie Run: Kingdom meta is largely the same as why most older Cookies get replaced by new releases, i.e., that their skills are too specialized and one-dimensional for them to compete against newer Cookies that offer a wide variety of benefits with every skill cast.
Devsisters have addressed this problem by adding a plethora of new aspects to the Ancient Cookie's skill, along with boosting his healing numbers up to current standards as well.
Most notably, the Amplify Buff, Debuff Resist buffs, and the HP Shield add to making this Cookie a far more viable and exciting character for Cookie Run: Kingdom players' PvE and PvP needs.
