Nexon, why
This is saltiest event I ever saw here, after getting my whole eq blessing killed by cookie witch (is this really solo?!) and whole dura eaten on FOUR WEAPONS before making this quest....
.....just to see that I will fight her again tommorow

    Well, I can see how this is AGGRIVATING for many...This is my favourite event overall. In all honesty, I like this sheerly because she is so darn strong. I did this when I was a newbie with only fireball to my name for any mid-tier magic. I still beat her, it was hard. But worth it, to me.

    My magic got stronger, I got my first pet from an event and it was the first pet I got when I moved to Alexina from Tarlach.

    So...Pretty much, just keep tryin'. Use Mana Shield, Crises Escape and anything that can get out of her Candy Bomb's range/make her stop targeting you for a moment and just pray, really. Bosses are HARD.

    I don't know she seems a lot.. tankier, than last time.
    My sakura abyss usually took her out. but this time, didn't do much to her. But I couldn't do a full charge cause Kupas.
    Also don't remember Kupas spawning with her(Which can't be put to sleep). Maybe my memory is just god awful.

    I wasn't here for the event last time, but she was definitely a lot harder than I expected.

    A good help for the Cookie Witch would probably be Blunt Weapon Smash (for Silence, hopefully) with a Guard Cylinder in off hand to use sand Burst if you fail to silence too much or need a breather.

    Also Divine Link if ya have it.

    But yeah, it may be best to just forgo equips to save on lost blessings.

    You have infinite auto-revives, so not like you need to wear armor to live all that much.

    Her Thunder would probably be the worst thing, since it hits multiple times, so wearing Lightning Elements could help.
    That'd make her Ice Spear hurt more, but it's still just one hit, you could Pot up from it.

    Kupas definitely weren't present last time around.

    chain blade for silencing could work too if you have a chain blade (which most people do) and have a decent chain crush rank. can't really give more advice atm myself, since I'm a few days behind on the quest. looking forward to it though. sounds like it'll really be a challenge. I mean, two years ago she was pretty weak

    The Kupas don't always appear when fightin' Minty. I've only had them spawn twice so far and I'm doin' the snack tent quest 4 times a day (my main plus 3 of my 4 other chars Bloody giant is too weak for anythin'). I think the Kupas were there last year but don't hold me to it.

    Me? welp I just use chain blade and if Minty starts hittin' me too much I just summon an AoE pet, usually a nimbus. And derp! I always forget to divine link, that would definitely keep her off me.

    As for my other 3 chars:
    My 2 other elves I just use ninja and my bone dragon or nimbus
    For my human (note: she's my oldest and first char) I use FH and a nimbus (good grief FH is so ridiculously OP like sickening so)

    Would use my giant but she's useless, if I'd take the time to acquire the ninja skills for her then she MIGHT be somewhat useful lol

    They were not there. I killed Cookie Witch several times during the original event, and she spawned nothing. (I was far weaker, so it took vastly longer)

    My rank 4 chain crush did jack squat she just ran up to me and punched my face in, still one cause I called my bone dragon and let it fight her while I healed when my health got low. I think she might be immune to typical crowd control.

    Ugh... I don't see the difference. She's still weak and it's easy to dodge her Fireball. If i somehow fail to dodge it, i only deal like 300-500 damage from it (i have like 1400 HP), so yeah... The only difference i notice is that someone pointed out that she was alone in a that room last year and now she has a Kupa spawn with her this year. Remembered it after reading that statement. I can still kill her with few r1 Chain Crush uses, even though she can't get knocked out.

    I did it on an alt that's only like level 300 total and no kupas spawned with her.... my guess is she was beefed up for players over a certain total level... maybe 500+ or 1k+

    Fighting a beautiful woman is the most painful thing I have ever done. I am a lover, not a fighter. Why cannot we make love to the Cookie Witch? :(

    Do you want to make love with Succubuses, Sirens and Merrow too? Maybe even Duke? :D

    Yes to everyone sans Duke. What kind of question is that?!

    I mean, have you seen Succubus Kristell? The Succubus Queen? The Succubus Queen from Vindictus?

    I mean, look at them! They are almost as beautiful as you!

    Not sure why'd you mention Duke though. He isn't even on Griffith's level of attractiveness. 3/10 would not let him go Eclipse on me.

    So.... You're saying being lonely as heck makes it okay to steal children? xD Where I'm from, not only is it morally wrong, but it's also illegal. LOL.
