Ranged Pixelings are the easiest Pixelings to use in PewDiePie’s Pixelings.
Ranged Pixelings attack the enemy Pixeling that is directly in front of them and often come with abilities that strengthen their attacks or buff their teammates.
Ranged Pixelings don’t have a solid amount of health, making them fairly easy to kill, so make sure that you take a spell that helps compliment your Ranged Pixelings to make sure they are on the field as long as possible.
The following are my thoughts on all of the current Ranged Pixelings and whether or not they are worth putting on your team.
This list has all of the pixelings from Arena, BroTown, and Floatopia. This page will be updated once Slumberland and Crushtopia are released.
COMMON PIXELINGS
Common Pixelings can be upgraded to a Power Rank of 443.
The maximum level a Common Pixeling can be is Level 50 and the maximum rank a Common Pixeling can be is Rank 12.
Common Pixelings will do more damage than Uncommon Pixelings, however, Common Pixelings lack Passive Abilities.
EDGAR
Sub-Category: Saboteur
Max Health: 1497
Max Base Damage: 363
Charge Ability: Drain // Removes 2 Charges
Turns to Charge: 3
When to Use: Edgar isn’t the best Pixeling to use but can be helpful if you need to use Drain and don’t want to put Ozzy on your team.
The main issue with Edgar is the fact that his Charge Ability, Drain, takes too long to activate, especially if you need to defer an enemy Pixeling from attacking you.
PEWDS
Sub-Category: Assasin
Max Health: 1245
Max Base Damage: 447
Charge Ability: Heavy Attack // Deals Heavy Damage // Up to 896
Turns to Charge: 3
When to Use: Pewds is useful for early game progression, especially because Pewds is farmable from a number of levels.
Once you start grinding Floatopia chances are you’re going to start benching Pewds because other Pixelings are going to be higher powered.
Pewds also doesn’t do as much damage as other Pixelings, especially in comparison to Falcon who you can use Energize on to maximize damage.
RUDY
Sub-Category: Support
Max Health: 1791
Max Base Damage: 321
Charge Ability: Bubble Shield Back // Grants a 1-hit shield to the Pixeling(s) in the Back Position
Turns to Charge: 5
When to Use: Rudy has a great charge ability, but is currently completely useless.
The main reason Rudy is useless is that it takes too long to use it’s the ability Bubble Shield Back. As much as having two Bubble Shields would be very helpful, especially when you’re under level, chances are doing more damage will get you further than using Rudy.
If you are going to use Rudy, chances are you’re going to need to put the ability Energize on your kit.
UNCOMMON PIXELINGS
Uncommon Pixelings can be upgraded to a Power Rank of 443.
The maximum level a Common Pixeling can be is Level 50 and the maximum rank a Common Pixeling can be is Rank 10.
Uncommon Pixelings do not have Passive Abilities.
FALCON
Sub-Category: Assasin
Max Health: 1134
Max Base Damage: 503
Charge Ability: Heavy Attack // Deals Heavy Damage to Enemy Pixelings // Max 756
Turns to Charge: 2
When to Use: Falcon is a great staple for team builds, especially because you can easily farm Falcon from levels that give it as an extra reward.
Falcon does a great deal of damage and because it’s charge move only needs two turns you can easily pump out a great deal of damage with Energize.
I personally prefer to put Strengthen on Falcon, since it does quite a bit of damage even without using its charge ability.
SLIPPY
Sub-Category: Saboteur
Max Health: 1441
Max Base Damage: 377
Charge Ability: Poison // Inflicts Poison (20% Damage per turn) // 3 Turns
When to Use: Slippy is great when it comes to battling bosses such as the Barrel King, although I won’t say that you see much use for Slippy in the higher levels of PewDiePie’s Pixelings.
Chances are you are mostly going to use Slippy in the early stages of this game and bench it as soon as you get better Ranged Pixelings.
UNCOMMON PIXELINGS
Uncommon Pixelings can be upgraded to a Power Rank of 443.
The maximum level a Common Pixeling can be is Level 50 and the maximum rank a Common Pixeling can be is Rank 10.
Uncommon Pixelings do not have Passive Abilities.
TAD
Sub-Category: Support
Max Health: 1819
Max Base Damage: 354
Charge Ability: Strengthen Back // Raises the Attack of the Back Pixelings by 25% up to 100%
Turns to Charge: 3
Passive Ability: Shrouded // Receives 33% less damage from Ranged Pixelings
When to Use: Unless you don’t have a better Rare Ranged Pixeling… don’t use Tad.
I’d prefer a heavier damage-dealing Pixeling rather than Tad, especially because its stats just aren’t… well… impressive.
OZZY
Sub-Category: Saboteur
Max Health: 1588
Max Base Damage: 416
Charge Ability: Drain
Turns to Charge: 2
Passive Ability: Poison Burst // Upon defeat, inflicts a critical hit and Poison to its attacker (20% damage per turn)
When to Use: By far I find Ozzy to be the most versatile Pixeling.
Ozzy can be used in pretty much every PVE situation and can be extremely helpful when defeating bosses.
The only minor downfall to Ozzy is that he doesn’t do a great amount of damage in comparison to some other Pixelings.
MYTHIC
Mythic Pixelings can be upgraded to a Power Rank of 490.
The maximum level a Mythic Pixeling can be is Level 50 and the maximum rank a Rare can be is Rank 5.
Mythic Pixelings have two passive abilities.
GUSTO
Sub-Category: Assassin
Max Health: 1588
Max Base Damage: 416
Charge Ability: Heavy Attack // Deals about 2x Damage // Maximum 833 Damage
Turns to Charge: 3
Passive Ability #1: Shrouded // Receives 33% less damage from Ranged Pixelings
Passive Ability #2: Berserk // Deals 50% more damage when below 33% health
When to Use: Again, currently not useful.
Gusto is fun to play with and I would love to use it more often, but really there’s nothing really useful about Gusto because you can push out relatively similar damage with Pixelings with more useful abilities.
#ReworkGusto?
LULU
Sub-Category: Assassin
Max Health: 1280
Max Base Damage: 539
Charge Ability: Heavy Attack All // Deals Damage to all enemy Pixelings // Maximum 602 Damage (to each Pixeling)
Turns to Charge: 4
Passive Ability #1: Shield Breaker // Ignores and destroys Bubble Shields when attacking
Passive Ability #2: Vampire // Heals itself for 25% of the damage dealt to an enemy
When to Use: Everyone feels like Lulu is the most powerful Pixeling in the game, and while she is very powerful, there are ways to beat her.
I love Lulu for PVE, but she’s not always my top pick for PVP because everyone uses her.
Still, Lulu is a great Pixeling who you can use at any time, so make sure you check the corner of your chests before you incubate them.
NAZA
Sub-Category: Saboteur
Max Health: Unknown
Max Base Damage: Unknown
Charge Ability: Stun // Inflicts Stun
Turns to Charge: 2
Passive Ability #1: Spell Immunity // Immune to ALL spells
Passive Ability #2: Vampire // Heals itself 25% of the damage dealt to an enemy
When to Use: Currently Unavailable
GLITCHY
Sub-Category: Assassin
Max Health: Unknown
Max Base Damage: Unknown
Charge Ability: Heavy Attack Random // Deals about 2x Damage to a random enemy
Turns to Charge: 3
Passive Ability #1: Spell Immunity // Immune to ALL spells
Passive Ability #2: Shrouded // Receives 33% less damage from Ranged Pixelings
When to Use: Currently Unavailable
CONCLUSION
All-in-all, the best Ranged Pixelings at the current moment seem to be Lulu (Mythic), Ozzy (Rare), Falcon (Uncommon) and sometimes Slippy (Uncommon) in particular boss circumstances.
At the end of the day, the Pixeling that you choose to use will heavily depend on which Pixelings you receive from chests or whether you have the opportunity to grind out some of the lower level Pixelings.
While I would love to have a great Cloudia, there’s no way I’m going to have the time to fully grind it out.
*sigh* No sheep for me.
So, I’m curious, who are your favourite Ranged Pixelings? Which is your tried and true? Let me know in the comments below!
