Monster Collection

Monster Collection is a form of collecting in MapleStory. The objective is to kill monsters and add them to your collection, and then send the collections out on an Exploration to get bonus rewards. The collection is organized into different sections, as well as various sub-sections, based on the area where the monster can be found. There are rewards for completing a single row and page of collection, in addition to Exploration. Monster Collection and Exploration is accessible and shared amongst all characters in the same world.

To add monsters to Monster Collection, players hunt the specific monster until it is added, or use the extremely rare Monsterbloom item to randomly register a monster (there are a few Monsterblooms that register a specific monster, obtainable by completing certain rows in the Collection). Any iteration of this monster can count toward the collection as long as it has the exact same name (e.g. hunting Mushmom in the Cooking with Tangyoon Party Quest will count for Mushmom in Henesys). Note that lower level monsters have a higher chance of being added than higher level monsters, and certain monsters require an Elite monster version to be counted.

Rewards

When all monsters in one row are collected, you can obtain a box that contains various items such as Reward Points, Spell Traces, and Chaos Scroll of Goodness 50%. When a row of monsters is completed, the player can send the collection out on an Expedition under the Exploration tab, where players can send a row of collections out on an expedition for some set time to obtain rewards such as Reward Points, Trait Items, Spell Traces, Occult Cubes / Mystical Cubes, and Potential Scrolls.
