The ability and best build of the Cookie Run Kingdom Aegis Hollyberry Cookie are:

Ability: Shield of Conviction

When the ability is activated, the Hollyberry Cookie charges forward with her Shield. While the Shield is active, Hollyberry will absorb a portion of the damage her allies take, excluding periodic and indirect damage. Afterward, she buffs ally cookies, reducing incoming CRIT DMG and making them resistant to damage debuffs.

Hollyberry Cookie will also gain the Seed of Light buff based on the damage taken during Shield of Conviction. Once enough Seed of Life stacks are accumulated, they will bloom into Berry of Life.

Steelbound Passion will activate depending on the amount of damage received during Shield of Conviction or after a certain period. The Steelbound Guardian will activate when the Ages Hollyberry Cookie gains enough stacks of Steelbound Passion or when she loses a certain amount of health.

In the Steelbound state, Cookie Run Kingdom Aegis Hollyberry Cookie's skill cooldown resets, HP recovers, and Shield of Conviction enhances. Her final attack will be buffed depending on the damage taken while the Shield of Conviction is active. The cooldown for Hollyberry Cookie's first skill activation is reduced, and she briefly becomes resistant to interrupting effects.
