The point of collection (item get border line) as seen on Mountain of Faith.

The point of collection, or POC for short, is an invisible line about 1/4-1/5 of the way down the screen; the exact location depends on the character selected. This feature first appeared in The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.

Function

If you're at or above this line, most types of items will be dragged at a moderate speed to the character. If you go below the line, any items already moving toward you will still be auto-collected, but any new items will not unless you return above the line.

The height where point items are worth their maximum value is the same height as or slightly below this line, depending on the game.

In Undefined Fantastic Object, the point of collection will not affect UFO items, and a summoned UFO will absorb items even if they were being auto-collected to you before the UFO was summoned.

In Ten Desires, the point of collection will not affect divine spirits.

History

In Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, the point of collection is only enabled while at full power. In Perfect Cherry Blossom, the same applies, except it is enabled in the Extra and Phantasm stages regardless of your power level. In Imperishable Night, the point of collection is enabled while at full power, when focused, or when playing as Magic Team or solo Marisa (but not solo Alice).

Starting from Mountain of Faith, this function is always enabled, regardless of power level, character, and stage. At the start of the first stage, the line is visible for a short period of time, though not if you're watching a replay.

Starting from Undefined Fantastic Object, point items auto-collected using the point of collection will always be worth their full value, even if you're below the line when the item reaches you.
