Guild Battle Update Patch Notes

NEW MODE: COOKIE ALLIANCE

Cookie Alliance is a seasonal game mode where your goal is to mobilize a great Cookie army to avert the monster threat.

• Clear World Exploration’s Stage 10-31 (Story) to unlock. – Set up five teams of five Cookies: 25 Cookies total.
  • Use Alliance Tickets to play in this mode: the Tickets will refill with time.
• Your Alliance Tickets will not disappear with the end of the first season, and you will be able to use them later.
• Maps, enemies, and rules might change with each following season of Cookie Alliance.

Battles

• Each Cookie Alliance battle is divided into several chapters where you have to oppose oncoming waves of enemies.
• You will start playing with your first team and will continue fighting until your fifth team is defeated. The battles are automatic, but you can switch the team manually after a cooldown period. Once you switch a team, the new team will take the place of the current team in the battle immediately.
• Once a team gets defeated, the next team will enter the battlefield and continue fighting.
• You may pause and exit the battle and pick it up again where you left.
• In Cookie Alliance, you will encounter special buffs and debuffs such as Increased HP, Decreased Healing Received, etc.
• These effects might change in the following seasons.

• The Beacon of Valor is a special feature that grants special buffs in Cookie Alliance.
• There are two kinds of the Beacon of Valor’s effects which you can activate using Coins.
  • Buff 1: The levels of all Cookies are upgraded to Lv.60 in Cookie Alliance: all Cookies of Lv.59 and lower will start with their basic stats equal to those of Lv.60.
  • Buff 2: Enter Blast Mode which duration will depend on the number of your Lv.60 Cookies (the number of Cookies you actually upgraded to Lv.60 will be taken into account).
• Upon your first play in Cookie Alliance, you will receive 7 days of the Beacon of Valor activated through playing the tutorial.
• Make sure to activate the Beacon of Valor before using Alliance Tickets to start a battle to enjoy its effects.
• The Beacon of Valor’s effect will remain as long as it is active regardless of the season.

Points & Rewards

• Depending on your score in Cookie Alliance, you will enter the Individual and Guild Ranking and will be eligible for rewards depending on your ranking tier.
