Monster Bookworms

Finally after 12 hours, 7 Rush books, 4 Tauromacis cards and 2.2k Taurospear Horns:

Posting an update later today.

Eh, 12 hours, 7 rush books is pretty decent. They're 15m each in Scania, that's 105m in 12 hours, almost 9m per hour. Were you on 2x drop card? Grats on the monster card btw.

Update to my book, loads of new cards...

They're 20m ea in Bera. =p
Yes, I had a 2x drop card since it took forever to get one (and it did).

Only took me 20 minutes, I had remaining 2x Drop from pap.

Update after a long time, been working more on low-tier monsters since i don't have any motivation for hours of killing for no results any more at higher-tier monsters.

I included a bonus picture here of my Page in Bellocan finding a Sand Dwarf card which i worked really hard to find on my hermit unsuccessfully, while here i was just passing by and found it, just my luck. (Wouldn't it be a GREAT idea to combine your monster books from all your characters on your account?! It makes sense, after all Monster Book's first intention is to give knowledge about monsters, so why the heck should i have one kind of information here and then if i'm on another character and i'll "need" that information i'll have to move accounts?).

It is best that you post every card, but truth be told, I have accepted posts that didn't have every page included before.

Well that would be complicated. I mean there are so many things to account for and so many things people can do to cheat, it seems unnecessary. Unless we find some fool-proof way of doing that, I doubt we will be able to do it.

Actually the intent of monster book is to give people a hand in grinding. That's why each character gets their own book. If you combined all of the books on a single account then on my cygnus character... I'd basically never get an exp buff or card buff at all.

You're right. I just don't have the greedy-o-vision you usually get after getting more familiar with Nexon America, so i didn't even think of it that way.

I'll update after my book gets compensated D:

Compensated book and found a few new ones.

The way they work you barely ever get them anyway... I grinded 114-126 on my Night Lord at Newties and only had one hour of exp bonus, at around level 122. Each level was around 3-5 hours on 2x exp so that's at least 45-50 hours of grind. I looted 7 cards so far..

IMO it should be a permanent buff after you get the 5th card, or keep giving you the buff on each card you find after that, I mean if the point is that you learned all the monster's weaknesses, why would you forget after an hour .-.

Finally, an update to my card collection. Apparently if you found a TT card or Elin card you got compensation for a possible messed up book. My book was not messed up, and i got compensation anyway. I dont understand why, but they gave me 1 extra card of every card i had on the date of 6/23/09. Feels like cheating but i have almost twice as many cards now.
