    I would like to see some sort of implementation of "Monster cards" related to quests completed from a certain area, if possible.
    The cards can have the Icons from the area, so these: upload_2018-5-13_20-38-49.png

    There can be a NPC which will give these cards, according to for example the amount of quests completed (so say for example 20% complete - 1st card, 40% complete, 2nd card, etc..). Quests which have a lvl requirement or job specific quests can be left out in that percentage, to make it fair for everyone.

    This will also give some motivation to do questing besides the monstercard hunt =).

    I would say this will be rather unfair I know of people who have high quest completion rates. This would mean they can just auto complete the whole monster book and get the ring easily.

    How is that unfair? Anyone can complete quests. People that have already done so didn't put any less effort into it than someone who starts doing quests now has to.

    By ur logic, let's say u can only get cards by quest . And those people who grinded at least 10hrs a day previously (leeching or whatever) get free cards. Do u think it's fair?

    We currently have no plans to make major changes to way Monster Book is done, besides what we offer already.

    I like the attempt to make questing more rewarding, but I don't think we should include monster cards as rewards because there would be no reason to grind for them anymore.

    If you count the area's it's about 37. That would be only 1 tier and a bit for the ring if you completed them all.

    That said, completing all quests for 1 area is quite hard, it's not like everyone who did quests gets a full set instantly.

    I'm not saying i want this added, i Just disagree with your reasoning.
    I'd like the medal system more (Quest specialist medal).

    Ok this is where I interject; NO medal system please >.<
    I do like the idea, but maybe including an achievement book visible only to the playing character... but then that doesn't seem to differ much from the quest window. I don't think we should overload the game with extra and unnecessary rewards and stickers. It might be a relatively small aspect, but that's still one of the things that brought down the quality of GMS. Monster book is okay... but nothing beyond it.

    Medals will never be added in the way GMS did it. I absolutely hate them, so don't worry about that.

    Alright, let me give some clarity about this post as it seems to lead to some confusion.

    I am not asking for any medals, or bonuses, or that it will be included in the monster book ring count.

    I was just thinking about some part in the 'Monsterbook' (or maybe something like a 'Quest' book, or maybe say an extra section in the Quest Log), which works in a similar way as the Monsterbook does. By that I mean in the way of say a percentage of quests completed per area will give some information about the area, information which can be for example a list of Maps in the area, or the NPC`s in the area, a description of the area, a list of Monsters to be found in that area, or when it was released in GMS/ other MS.

    I understand that this extra feature might be too much time consuming, and it is not a necessary feature. I just think that this feature might give a boost to do quests, and that it would be a fun addition.

    Now THAT is interesting~ It's like having a second monster book, but instead of grinding for cards, you grind quests? People don't get a lot of recognition or bonus advantages from spending the time to complete quests at the moment. Adding another kind of multiple-tier reward or perhaps independent area related special rewards would be fun. Though I don't know how likely it is going to happen because it is something that will be completely new to maplestory, and it would require a lot of time to research the stories and background of each npcs and places.
