Pangya Impact Zone

The white line on our Pangya bar is the most important element of the game. If we can't hit Pangya, then there's no way of getting better. I remember the old days where hitting Pangya proved to be difficult compared to now. It tested your timing, flexibility, and focus. But now that idea is almost gone thanks to these impact zone items and upgrades that Pangya spoiled their players with. Every server has their own method for their impact zone additions. Let's take a look at our available servers around the world to see what they have.

I'm going to go through each servers to see how high their impact zones can go. I would add the soccer shoes in, but since the effect was only temporary during the event, I'm not going to count that. Now before I get started, I want everyone to know that this demonstration may not be accurate as time may change later on for any newer additions or adjustments.

Global Server
For this demonstration, lets say you are a rookie level and winds are 9m for this test. So what do we get?

+ +++ +
10 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 23

So 23 plus the default impact zone width of 4 pixels equals to a grand total of 27 pixels!

Thailand Server
So far only Korea and Thailand server have card pack vol.2. So they will get to use cards like Cadie (R) and Fairy Ears (R) for more boost. However, Thailand server doesn't have the newcomer bonus effect if you are a rookie or beginner. So lets find out how high they can get with their setup.

So winds are blowing at 9m. Here's what we get.

++++++
10 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 23

So 23 plus the default impact zone width of 4 pixels equals to a grand total of 27 pixels!

Now why did I leave out Cadie (R) card that gives +1 pixel boost? Well the winds are blowing 9m so the Cadie (R) card would not work. If you wanted the wind to be 1m instead of 9m, then the effect difference from the Fairy Ears effect would make it much lower. To be exact, you would only be down by 1 pixel.

Japan Server
This server is the only one that has the Fairy Tears item from Tiki's Magic Box, but they don't have card pack vol. 2. But unlike Thailand server, Japan does have the newcomer effect. The biggest downfall is that Fairy Ears loses the effect if you use an item. Ouch. So lets see what we come up with.

In this demo, you are a rookie level, and winds are blowing 9m.

+++++
10 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 20

So 20 plus the default impact zone width of 4 pixels equals to a grand total of 24 pixels!

If we used the Pangya star item, it would give the same bonus as a 9m Fairy Ear effect because both of them give +4 pixels. So it doesn't even matter in this situation. Japan is probably the only server that abides to their own rules when it comes to item effects and stats for balance purposes. But they do have Fairy Tears which is a great addition without no side effects, you just need a recycle a bunch of old junk in your inventory which that isn't a problem to most players there.

Korea Server
The only server that you can possibility get all of those impact zone upgrades without spending any money there. The only thing this server doesn't have is Fairy Tears. However, that system used to create that item was translated from Korea and ported over to the Japanese server, so there's a good chance of seeing that item added in the near future. This server also contains card pack vol. 2.

A rookie level, and winds at 9m. Here is the result.

+ ++++ +
10 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 25

So 25 plus the default impact zone width of 4 pixels equals to a grand total of 29 pixels!

Looks like we have a winner. Imagine once Fairy Tears come out on this server. A whopping 30 pixels!
