Trick or Treat!


It's Halloween, and of course Pangya is updated with the spooky theme of the year! There's quite a bunch of update, although almost all of them is Shop update, let's start!


Firstly, the non-shop updates! There are 2 event going on with this update. One is the Trick or Treat with Cadie. Simply login everyday (you might need to play a game or two) to get a freebie from Cadie, the items include a Seraph Halo for one of the character.


The second one is the same as the previous Halloween event, collecting boxes and exchange them for Halloween box. You can obtain Halloween Clubset and Chaos Horns from this Halloween boxes, so it's a pretty neat event.


Then there's the usual Gacha update, Gacha is now updated with Black Pepper Clubset and Nell's Black Pepper set. The set itself were already present since last year's Halloween on other servers, but since Global added Nell after Halloween, they're pushed back a year.



Next is the shop updates. There's quite a lot, although they're no different from last year's. Lots of Halloween themed clothes are being sold at Pang shop, and if you spent 40$ or more before 10/31/2011, you can get a Black Pepper Clubset. Clever, huh? GameRage wants you to spend more and more money for them!

And for a (major?) update, they actually updated the game's graphics engine!

The game will offer many graphical improvements such as smoother transitions between scenes, improved shadow & water effects, and improved rendering of characters and transparent objects.

Due to this, the requirement for Pangya is significantly increased, though not by much.

The 100 Hour Challenge


It's a pretty rewarding event this time! And bunch of updates too!


This time it's Nuri's birthday! The event itself is really simple, just play Pangya for as long as you can, and every time you reach 5 hours of gameplay, you get a prize. There's another prize for 25, 50, 75, and 100 hour or gameplay, which are pretty awesome. Nuri comets, birthday hat, and title are also being sold in Pang shop. Unfortunately, since I don't play Pangya that much anymore, I might just look for Nuri masks from other player shops.


For the updates, most of it are shop updates. First of all, Nell's Headset is now creatable in Cadie's Cauldron. The recipe uses Fragments of Time, of course.


Then there's Papel shop update, the reading glasses. This is so far in Global Server, the only normal eyeglasses for Nell, wonder when they'll add glasses on Pang shop?


Next is Gacha update, and now it's platinum gloves for all characters. They're basically the same as the previous Power Gloves, adding another maximum powerslot and 1 spin/slot.
