    Should Monster Cards stay visible after you've collected 5 of them, or should they be invisible for your screen? I had opinions on both sides, such as some willing for them to stay visible for their screen so they could alert their partner, but also some getting very annoyed by their constant dropping.

    What's your opinion? I am not making an option for both. So if like 75%+ want option x, it'll most likely be that.

    GMS made them invisible after you've collected 5. If its 50/50, I go for that. Your partner would still be seeing the cards you receive from mobs, they are just not visible for you.

    Would love to see the total number of cards ever collected for each mob, can't wait to see my slygie cards in the 100s

    Either that or extra cards become usable/tradable items

    I definitely think they should disappear. I would even go as far to say they shouldn't drop after you get 5 because there is no more information for you as a player to get on that monster. It's more annoying than helpful and it kind of ruins the whole spirit of card collection if you just help others collect the cards. Those cards are rewards for YOU fighting a certain monster many times. It's not just some drop. And if it's purely for the ring, well, that ring is also a reward you should work hard for not just #MultipleAccounts for it.

    Sorry if I'm going more philosophical on this when in practicality it really doesn't matter, but it feels like it kind of devalues cards when you can help others farm them without them needing to technically do anything for it.

    "This card is full" annoys me, not the drops themselves.

    Honestly though i remember in GMS once you collected 5 you would get a buff for the mob you got 5 cards of, either was EXP or Drop rate but it doesnt have that on this version and that's kind of meh, but if i had to choose i'd rather have them gone

    Turn them into Monster Cards when you're already full.

    How about making them dropable but not pick-up able?
    So your pet won't loot your friend's card by mistake.

    If they could still drop after 5 but if looted they didn't have message in chat that would be great. Would still allow for friends or whoever else to loot if needed.

    they need to be visable but unpickable so it wont force u to take the card when you own it 5 times so other will be able 2 but also wont block you from picking other stuff

    I personally like the message after you have all 5 of one card. It informs me that I have already collected 5...it prevents me from picking up more than 5 without me noticing (pet).

    I can't believe people actually get annoyed by either the notification that the cards are full, or the fact that there are spare cards being dropped after they have achieved 5 cards.

    Do you people get annoyed that easily smh

    I'd like to say they should be tradable after you collect 5.
    I understand this may be hard to code, but it seems like a good way for low level players to make some mesos and keep exploring rather than pqing and going to popular grinding spots. i think this would also increase incentive to go out and hunt them. In my opinion, the experience of Maplelegends is less than what it could be for most players because the community discourages exploration, rather than following a guide. The introduction of monster cards was a big help for this lacking area, but after collecting 5 its back to pq or grinding areas..... but thats just a theory! :^)

    It might just be some people over others. I am fine with them still dropping after getting full set but if I am on my mage leeching in the same map for hours, it can kind of get redundant when it keeps telling me I have the full set already.

    If it would show the message in chat on the 6th card then that will help people know it is full but after that 6th one it is not necessary...

    Both of the choice have their own pros and cons...
    How about make a command to make monster cards enable/disable for you to see when you get 5 cards?

    if not tradable, i think they should be visible, but without being available for pickup. preferably without a notification as alot of people seem to complain about that. this way i can alert friends, and have my pet not pick them up by mistake.

    Definitely make them continue to drop after 5, but not lootable.
    It's really annoying to pick up a 6th card and have it burn when my second character needed that card
