Quest progress is shared across all worlds and can only be completed once per Maple ID. These are the following quests:

How to Use

The World Archive UI is designed to allow you to check the status of your Collection and explore information on monsters and NPCs in each region.
You can choose between Maple World, Grandis, Arcane River, and Appendix. Clicking each button will take you to the corresponding world region selection screen.
A list of regions belonging to the selected world will be displayed, and you can check the collection progress of each region.
The Collection can be filtered by status (All / Incomplete / Completed) using the filter function, and can also be searched by region name or Collection item name.
Monsters will be registered upon defeat. When in a party, you must deal damage to the monster at least once for it to be registered. (Monster not registered in Practice Mode)
NPCs will be registered upon clicking or interacting with the NPC (including via the NPC/Gather key). Certain NPCs may provide hidden special research information, which can be uncovered through additional interactions.
Clicking the notification window displayed when registering a collection will allow you to immediately check the collected collection information.

Enjoy the stories of World Archive!
