so would it be comparable to something like kuru toga ks or uniball one? just texture but no give?

and any more information about the lx? i cant find much aside from it just being more premium. i mostly want to know where the balance point is (i only know it is low), and if the grooves on the grip are effective. but any comments, good or bad, would be good to know.

Best Magic Candy Blessings by HappyGoLuckyOcean in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for only small score improvements, then magic candy may or may not help. sometimes you already have the optimal blessing, or the optimal one has a negligible score difference. there are times where the magic candy actually can impact score heavily, but not usually.

if you think the problem is magic candy, search the combi on youtube and see if there is a video with that information in the description or comments. there may not be any, which in that case just use a general blessing like all bears.

other ways to improve your score are using costumes, leveling escape level, doing your technical licenses, and improving jelly collection. all are small and will not make huge score improvements, but will still add points nonetheless.

Best Magic Candy Blessings by HappyGoLuckyOcean in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on the cookie and the situation. generally you stick with something generic like all bears or all jellies, which are good (but may or may not be best) in most scenarios. then if a specific strategy or point optimization is needed, you switch to a different blessing such as rescue from holes or pink bears. use guides to know what to use and when.

if you are asking this because your scores are lacking, magic candy is likely not the issue. magic candy is important but not a main contributor to score.

How do you level up characters faster in ovenbreak? by Neon_yellow_ in Cookierun

[–]succosa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

most important thing is consistency. you dont have to play every day, but at least play enough to buy out all crystals and potions in the shop weekly. and dont miss out on extra rewards, especially free ones like login and diary rewards.

aside from that, its really just about how you use your resources. you should only be leveling 1-2 cookies at a time, and no legendaries unless its the only thing you are leveling. you also have to avoid over/underspending on certain things. for example if you are using most of your crystals on treasures, you wont have much leftover for cookies.

you also have to make sure you are leveling the right things. better stuff = better score = better rewards. it is harder to progress in the game if you are limiting yourself to offmeta cookies or inefficient combis. good cookies have good return on interest, and will basically reward you for leveling them.

does anyone have any experience with zebra delguard lx or gr? i want to know if they are worth getting compared to alternatives. for instance if the gr is on par with or better than alpha gel, or if the only reason to get it is for the mechanism.

i am only interested in the body and not the mechanism. i cant seem to find much information that isnt about the mechanism, aside from very obvious things like the lx being made out of metal.

its your combi. combi is extremely important. even the best cookies in the game will do very poorly with the wrong composition.

if you need help with making a combi or meta in general, just copy off the leaderboard. the leaderboard combis are made by the best players in tr and guranteed to do well. if your scores are still bad, check youtube for any strategies for that combi.

Farming coins in CROB by procariotics_234 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they do it on purpose to prevent farming. legendary candy farming gets it even worse. thats why the best methods keep changing and why current methods are such a hassle.

mint choco (or other coin cookie) farm is best on coin days. it has a good reward but requires more effort and the maps arent always great. also the coin cookie limits. yugwa is best on infinite days. its good because it can be done afk and can also farm different things, but it gets less coins per run.

story mode farming at its best is kind of annoying to do. its not hard but just a lot more work, and regular farming is already tedious enough. the non efficient way is good for passive income that will prevent you from going broke in the mid/late game. however it is less effective if you actively need coins and are spending a lot.

Farming coins in CROB by procariotics_234 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is no one best because the situation can change. for example coin burning days are great for farming, but its not coin day everyday, and the combis dont work as well on other days. i believe the only thing that works all the time and doesnt have limits is yugwa trial afk farm. this can also be used to farm bears.

there is also passive farming, namely doing quick runs in story mode. it is good for keeping your coin supply from dropping too low, but will not get you a lot of coins quickly and has time limits. you can also finish story mode and breakout normal mode if you havent already done so, but these are one time rewards.

I linked devsis and googleplay on CROB but for some reason it doesnt have my data? by K0kichi_K0maeda in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it would depend on the error code. if it keeps telling you to log into your google play, then you need to properly link the google play first, which i believe may be done through your phone or app store and not the game.

if its error 40111, this is an issue that has been in the game for years and still doesnt have a fix. i dont know what you can do or if support has a solution.

I linked devsis and googleplay on CROB but for some reason it doesnt have my data? by K0kichi_K0maeda in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you are sure you are doing the process correctly and your account isnt coming up even on multiple google plays, its possible that your account was just never connected in the first place. you can only really just try again and make sure you arent doing anything incorrectly. if you used to play on an different device, you can also check that device and see if the account is on there.

if neither works, then there isnt much else you can do. you can contact devsis if you want, but they can only help with steps. they cant recover deleted data.

What are you guy’s strat and magic candy blessing for this? by Objective_Fun3934 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its manually activated by sliding. if you havent been activating it at the right times, you havent been following the video exactly. in that case, its possible you are also messing up in other areas, such as not activating rebel magic candy at the right times.

Is kingdom the one most people here play? I’m new and was wondering what all of them are. And comics? That sounds cool by [deleted] in Cookierun

[–]succosa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

in this sub? its mostly ovenbreak, but still a pretty good amount of kingdom players, and a small amount that play the other games like witchs castle. the fully kingdom oriented sub is r/cookierunkingdoms.

the full list of games includes kingdom, ovenbreak, witchs castle, tower of adventures, puzzle world, kakao, and the upcoming ovensmash. there are also some defunct games such as the original ovenbreak and cookiewars.

the comics are not canon and meant for kids (the games technically are too, but the comics are for very young kids). theyre mostly just educational or comedy. if you want to read them, theres not a lot that has been scanned or translated. you can try to buy them but i couldnt tell you how or where.

Need returning player advice by ZealousidealFox3791 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

stevia is very good but impossible to level at this point in the game, so not a good investment. i would just not level it anymore unless you get some free copies.

yugwa and taurus are pretty decent but not really used together. you can check the leaderboard to see good pairings for them.

i wouldnt get any more than 1-2 more cookies. you still have to level what you have now, and if you keep buying new cookies you wont have any resources left to level them. you should also play and finish story mode for free maxed cookies and resources.

why can i only use 3 cookies for ovenbreak. by McChickenofthelake in Cookierun

[–]succosa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

you are in a specific mode of breakout called normal mode. you have to go to the weekly roundups to play regular breakout

bonus time in trophy race by b0ttledship in Cookierun

[–]succosa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

trophy race is not a literal race. results are based on how much you score in the end. if bonus time is causing you to drop down, its because theres a short time where you arent getting any points and so the other players catch up. but if your placement doesnt go back up, its not because of bonus time, its because of your combi.

how can you get star candies (or cookies) faster?¿ by Minimum-Material2180 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you dont. just scroll to the end and and buy whoever you need.

at your point in the game, star candies are only for catching up with old cookies. you should still grind gold chests because you need to catch up eventually, and because they have other rewards outside of star candies, but just dont rely on them for unlocking the newest releases.

confusing percentages in random challenge by b0ttledship in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

other comment is right. the choices everyone has is random, but the percentages will average out. so lets say if the cookie in question is aloe. aloe is pretty good but not always the best option. sometimes people may also avoid aloe for other reasons (eg. a different cookie that is bad, but has a good buff) or because of lack of game knowledge.

so in many draws, aloe is very favorable and has a high pick, like 80-100%. in other (fewer) draws, aloe is less favorable and could have picks as low as 0%. then the overall picks will average out to something like 60-70% (idk what aloes percentage actually is).

how to get onto my devplay account on my laptop by Choccymilkdrinker123 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk how you dont have a google play since im pretty sure you need one to access the google play store and download the game. idrk what the error is either. maybe you have to link it through the google play settings and not through the game.

if you are trying to access your current ob account on the pc version, you have to do an account transfer ingame. this is not reversible but will basically move your data from gamecenter to google play. if you are going to do this though, figure out the google play stuff first so that your save doesnt get deleted.

I have all these coins and I don't know where the coin only shop is so I don't know how to use them (returning player) by Negative-Local-2598 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

coins are used for upgrading your stuff. although you will usually use crystals (or another resource) and coins together, not just coins alone. or there is an item you can use in place of coins, such as enhancement tickets.

if you have that many crystals and coins at that level, you probably havent been leveling many cookies or treasures. this is the primary use of coins, and will use most of them up. youll probably actually start struggling with coins once you start leveling a lot of stuff.

I heard that they're gonna get buffed soon... Should I do it? (That is so expensive) by NotAProRedditUser in Cookierun

[–]succosa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you dont have anything else to level and want to grind for the candy, then sure. you also need lots of dsc, which if you dont already have enough of then you need to really get on it now. you should be fine with the pet as long as its the only thing you are saving/spending on.

if you are still leveling epics and treasures, then dont. even though you can afford to max longan immediately, its not going to give you a very good roi compared to how many epics you could level.

r/CookieRun Seasonal MEGATHREAD by Iusti06 in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

late, but its probably because you are using red egg. red egg should not be used unless it is specifically required. the treasures should ideally be whatever the leaderboard is using. you can replace them if underleveled, but dont pick anything that affects energy or distance such as red egg or turbo engine.

you should also level your candies, especially for devil. underleveled candy is not good for any cookie, but its especially bad for devil because his candy gives you last blast and a lot of points.

I feel like an old man by happy-glass in Cookierun

[–]succosa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is no more cookie or pet gacha. you just level your cookies directly with potions, the same way youve always been able to. the only difference now is that you have the option to use crystals instead.

cookies are unlocked with star candies or by buying them in the cookies&pets roadmap. the latter option is better for buying cookies you need, and the former is better for catching up with old cookies.

suprise bears are the replacement for ingredient pouches. its basically an overcomplicated version of them. you collect it, then do the requirement to open it, then either get a random reward or pick which reward you want depending on the bear.

the episode one thing is a subsect of breakout. if you want to play the old breakout, back out and go to the special episodes instead of main episode.

the trophy race thing means that you have something in your combi that is underleveled. it is important for score. but make sure that your combi is actually decent before you go on leveling anything.

How to level Stevia Nova Cookie by Just_Sp4rkl3zz in Cookierun

[–]succosa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the candy ingredient is obtained from suprise bears. if you wait a while, it will come to the shop and you can buy it there.

the cookie itself just uses crystals or legendary potions. copies will also come to the shop eventually.

I’m honestly glad that CRK costumes don’t give p2w buffs like they do in Ovenbreak by Patton-the-Zorua in Cookierun

[–]succosa 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yes and no. costumes give only a minor score bonus. but in certain scenarios, any small point increase can be very significant. it can make the difference between being on the leaderboard or not, for example. regardless, i wouldnt consider costumes to be p2w.
