Though cards will continue to drop after the final card is found, picking up more than five will have no effect. In addition to their permanent change to a player's monster book, each card looted will cast a "buff" on the player, granting them a helpful boost such as increased drop rates or speed/jump boosts when hunting in the region where that monster appears.

However, after the fifth card of a monster is looted (and the buff is given), the cards of the monster after that do not give a buff when looted.


Cards in the book are sorted by relative level range. There are tabs on the side of the book which allow one to skip from level range to level range. The tabs on the book's side are color coded, and the colors match those in the background of the cards which appear in that section. A Chief Gray, for example, has a green background on its' card, and the tab under which it appears is also green. The only exception is cards from Boss monsters, as these appear in a different section, called "Special Cards". Certain event monsters also appear as special cards.
