Cookie Run Kingdom: Pavlova Cookie Build and Best Toppings Guide
The Garden of Sweet Delights update has introduced two new cookies to Cookie Run: Kingdom—Eternal Sugar Cookie and the sweet, charming Epic Pavlova Cookie. Pavlova is a young Support Cookie with a heart full of love and a bow full of Cupid’s arrows, making him a great addition to teams focused on crowd control and critical synergy.
This in-depth guide covers the best build for Pavlova Cookie, including the top Toppings, Tarts, and Beascuits to maximize his support and damage potential.
Pavlova Cookie Overview
- Type: Epic Cookie
- Role: Support
- Position: Rear
- Attack Style: Ranged
- Skill Name: Heart-Piercing Arrow
Pavlova Cookie fires a barrage of Cupid-like arrows at enemies. His skill sends out 10 projectiles in 1.5 seconds, each dealing 135.5% damage at max upgrade. These arrows apply a debuff called Red Threads that, when stacked enough times, Charms enemies, rendering them temporarily inactive.
Additionally, Pavlova offers teamwide CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG buffs, increasing overall DPS for the team. Thanks to a short 6-second cooldown, he cycles through his skills quickly, making him great for long-term encounters like World Exploration and Cookie Alliance. However, he’s less effective in top-tier Kingdom Arena matches due to low survivability.
Best Toppings for Pavlova Cookie
| Topping | Benefit | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Indolent Raspberry | ATK ↑, CRIT ↑, DMG Resist | Best-in-slot for maximizing Pavlova’s offensive potential. Buffs his damage while providing supportive substats. |
| Searing Raspberry M | ATK ↑ | A solid alternative if Indolent variants are unavailable. Still boosts attack, though without the enhanced substats. |
| Indolent Almond / Solid Almond M | DMG Resist ↑ | Ideal for improving survivability, especially in PvP. Prevents Pavlova from being the first to fall. |
❌ Avoid Swift Chocolate or Bouncy Caramel: These Toppings provide minimal benefits due to Pavlova’s already short cooldown and high attack speed.
Best Tart Pairings
| Tart | Pairing Set | Notes |
| Searing Raspberry Tart M | With Indolent/Searing Raspberry | Boosts offensive builds further. |
| Solid Almond Tart M | With Indolent/Solid Almond | Enhances defense builds for better survivability. |
Matching Tarts with your topping set amplifies the overall effectiveness of your build.
Best Beascuit for Pavlova Cookie
| Beascuit | Description |
| Legendary Light Beascuit | The only Beascuit that complements Pavlova’s kit, enhancing his supportive and offensive effects. |
Make sure to level up and roll substats that prioritize CRIT, ATK, and Damage Resist to enhance Pavlova’s value in battle.
Final Thoughts
Pavlova Cookie isn’t just another charming support character—he’s a versatile CRIT buffer with a unique Charm mechanic and decent AoE potential. While not an Arena powerhouse, he excels in longer PvE scenarios where skill rotations and buffs matter most. With the right build, Pavlova can truly shine in the right hands.
