Cookie Run: Tower of Adventures Raid Boss guide

• Elements: Dark, Wind

Banana-Kong is the enemy Boss you fight in the Jungle, in Stage 6-15. The mechanics to beat him are very simple, as long as you kill all the Bananas. To complete this Raid with ease, follow the tips below:

Kill every single Banana that spawns in the arena

The Boss will occasionally spawn Bananas all over the arena. You need to destroy them ASAP, ideally while they're still green. If the Bananas are not destroyed while they are still green in colour (they turn yellow after a while), the Boss will pick them up. 

Once the Boss eats 5 Bananas, it will go into rage mode, which is extremely dangerous. Therefore, you need to pay close attention to your surroundings and make sure all the bananas are destroyed in time.

Avoid the red carpets

Banana-Kong will cast his skill quite often, and he hits pretty hard. When he's about half HP, he will cast his skill 5 times in 5 smaller circles, and then follow up with a 6th cast, in a big circle covering almost the entire arena.

Make sure you are positioned next to the edges of the arena, so you can avoid the big hit.

Burst down the boss as fast as possible

The Boss can be taken down before it goes into any of its phases, as long as you have enough damage. You can have one designated player to cover destroying the Bananas, while the other 3 are constantly attacking the boss.

It's crucial to have the right elements for this one, because the sooner you take it down, the better.

Best cookies for Banana-Kong Raid Boss

• Dark Choco Cookie
• Alchemist Cookie
• Rye Cookie
• Plantain Cookie
• Rockstar Cookie*

Dark Choco Cookie is the best cookie to beat this Boss with. He deals a ton of damage, especially if you build him full Crit. He also has AoE, which helps with taking down the Bananas that spawn around the arena.

Alchemist Cookie, although she is a Rare cookie, she can deal a lot of damage over time, and she can help take down the Bananas, as well as the Boss. She is the right element too, so that helps. Being a Rare rarity cookie, it is easier to max her than an Epic cookie, and also a lot easier to max her Artifact.

Rye Cookie is a Wind element cookie that can deal quite a lot of damage. She has decent range, so taking down the Bananas won't be such a problem if using her. She is one of the best Wind cookies in the game right now.

Plantain Cookie can pull enemies together with his Ultimate, which makes this stages a lot easier. He can also deal plenty of damage. On top of that, he is a cookie that can buff allies' movement speed, and with his Artifact, he can also increase his Wind-type damage. 

Although Rockstar Cookie doesn't have the right element for this Raid, his kit is top-tier. He works exceptionally well here since he can heal allies and buff their ATK. He's the best Support in the game right now, and despite being a different element, he is easily S+ tier in Raid Mode. 

• Elements: Water, Earth

Barb & Konn are the enemies you fight in the Desert, in Stage 2-15. The mechanics for them are fairly simple. You need to take down Barb with sniper Konn's help. To do this, follow the tips below:

Burst through Barb's HP while trying to avoid the red carpets

You should try to avoid the red carpets as much as possible because unless you have a good Healer on your team, chances are you could end up dying at the last phase if you decide to face tank the first shots. 

While Barb has his shield on, it's crucial you avoid the red carpets, but it is also good practice to memorise the pattern: it's always a small inner circle (you need to dash back), and then a big circle (you need to dash in). This pattern stays the same for all difficulties, so always position yourself accordingly.

Always position yourself well for Konn's sniper shot

When Barb gets his shield on, Konn will start firing a sniper shot, targeting a player. The player who has the target has to position himself behind Barb, opposite of Konn. Basically, the player with the target on, Barb, and Konn, need to be in a line. 

When the shot goes through, it has to hit the shield. That's the only way to break that shield quickly, so the sooner you do it, the better you could end up ranking. 

Best cookies for Barb & Konn Raid Boss

• Cream Soda Cookie
• Rockstar Cookie
• Sting Durian Cookie
• Gumball Cookie

When you're fighting Barb & Konn, you want to use one of these cookies. They all are the right element for the Boss, and while others can work too, of course - I've already explained before why it's good to have the recommended Element. 

Cream Soda Cookie is one of the best in this case, since her burst damage can work extremely well during an off-shield time, and Sting Durian Cookie can easily stack his Durian Thorns for a huge burst of damage.

Rockstar Cookie works exceptionally well here since he can heal allies and buff their ATK. He's the best Support in the game right now, and for Barb & Konn, he is easily S+ tier. 

Gumball Cookie is a pretty good tagger since with his Ultimate you can reduce the Boss' Water RES, which has a good synergy with Cream Soda Cookie (which is a Water element).

If you're out of quests and Raid Tickets, then maybe consider a different Cookie Run game, like Cookie Run: Kingdom! 

• Elements: All

Floratz is the enemy you will fight in the mines. It's a beautiful flower made of crystals, which summons crystals and lasers. It's a strong enemy, but there's a fairly easy way to defeat it.

Avoid the lasers and kill the spawns

To have a much easier time killing Floratz, you should kill the crystal spawns. These will cause Floratz to drop the moment all 4 are defeated, which is when it becomes vulnerable. 

Burst damage!

If you manage to put together a strong team, you can take down Floratz with burst damage. Sadly, it will still probably go through some phases since it has a fairly high DEF by default. However, you can just focus on dealing as much damage as possible and taking down the spawns. 

Avoid the spheres

Floratz will start spewing magical spheres all around it, some of which are purple, and some of which are blue. The blue ones will freeze you, while the purple ones will deal damage. You can avoid these a lot easier if you keep some distance from the Boss and follow their pattern. 

Best cookies for Floratz Raid Boss

• Your strongest

Since Floratz doesn't have a weakness to a specific element, you should try to equip your strongest cookies. That means you should have something like 3 DPS and one support. You could also go with 2 DPS, 1 tank and 1 support/healer. The support is almost always recommended because of the buffs and heals.

• Elements: Fire, Water, Earth

Shamonkey is the monkey boss everyone loves to beat down to a pulp. This boss was the last boss of 7-15, in Bana Bana Ruins. It is a fairly easy boss to fight if you know what to do.

So far, there have been multiple records showing how to defeat this boss in just a few seconds, before it goes through it phases.

Burst it down before it goes bananas

If your team is strong, you should try to take it down. The boss won't have a "mandatory" phase, which you need to pass, so as long as you deal enough damage, you're good.

Kill the totems

Shamonkey works in a pretty similar way to Floratz. You want to destroy the totem it spawns, unless you manage to kill it before it goes through the phases.

Best cookies for Shamonkey Raid Boss

• Rockstar Cookie (Water - healing, buffs)
• Iris Cookie (Water - fighter, slash)
• Sonic Water Cookie (Water - assassin, slash)
• Honeybear Cookie (Earth - support, assist)
• Strawberry Mochi Cookie (Fire - fighter, buffs, magic damage)
• Peach Cookie (Fire - support, ATK buff, damage)
• Mala Sauce Cookie (Fire - Fire RES reduction, damage)

Try going with an elemental team with 4 Cookies of the same element. This is your best shot at dealing with Shamonkey.

• Elements: Fire, Earth

Berry Bat is the boss you will find in the World Map Chapter 4, Abandoned Candy Mines. This boss is fairly easy to tackle, as long as you don't fall off the edge.

Mind the edges

The Berry Bat boss can fly, so you want to avoid staying on the edges for too long. These can fall, and you will have to respawn.

Avoid the laser sparks

Berry Bat will spawn some sparks that deal lots of damage, so don't be surprised. Those can bounce off anything they encounter, so you need to be mindful of your position. 

Its screeching summons more bats

When you see Berry Bat screeching, you can expect a bunch of bats appearing from off-screen. Some of them will lay down red carpets, which you need to avoid.

Best cookies for Berry Bat Raid Boss

• Peach Cookie
• Honeybear Cookie
• Strawberry Mochi Cookie
• Candy Drop Cookie

Make sure you have a healer on your team, because if you can't burst it down, you will have to go through the phases, which can be a little bit difficult if someone on your team is inexperienced.

• Elements: All

Cactor is the boss you faced back in Chapter 3, Peanut Parish. This boss is preceded by two of his lackeys, which you have to kill before you can actually deal any damage to the boss itself.

Kill the two mini-bosses

First, you should take down the two mini-bosses it spawns. These bosses aren't that difficult; you just need to kill them simultaneously (or within a few seconds of each other). Afterwards, you can deal with the big boss Cactor.

Then, it's just Cactor!

After you kill the two mini bosses, you can just deal with Cactor. It will have a few phases, which you can deal with if you just position yourself accordingly.

Target the cacti

When Cactor goes through its phases, it will spawn a few cacti all over the map. The goal here is to make the Boss charge straight into the cacti, one by one. You want him to destroy the cacti so you can get through this phase. 

The boss can also take damage during that time, so don't forget to also attack it in the meantime.

Cactor can be tackled if you just focus on the task ahead of you - it's one of the simplest bosses, even if the mechanics don't seem that way at first.
