MapleStory/Quizzes

There are various quizzes that occur within MapleStory. These are usually used to finish part of a quest or an event. Some include rewards.

Cygnus Quiz

The Cygnus Quiz is part of the Cygnus Knights pre-release content. Cygnus Quiz is an Use item that randomly drops from monsters. If you use the book it will ask you a question, and if you answer it correctly, you will receive 800 Experience and the Cygnus' Blessing buff.

• Answering a question correctly displays: "That is correct. You know about the knighthood very well. I will give you my blessing."
• Answering a question incorrectly displays: "That is incorrect. There should be a book that summarizes our conversation in your Etc window. Have you read through it?"

The buff grants you +10 Attack Rate, +80 Weapon Def., and +5 Speed for 10 minutes.

Find Master M

The "Daily Speed Quiz" available during the Find Master M event is called "Traces of Master M". You can take the quiz 5 times a day, with a 30 minute cooldown, by speaking with Cassandra (present in most towns).

The basics

• There are three quizzes, each organized by a common type (items, monsters, and NPCs).
• You have 15 seconds to answer each question correctly.
• Each question simply asks you to type in the name of the image that appears (i.e. Red Potion for the icon of the etc. item).
• If you answer it correctly, a small sound plays.
• Incorrect answers result in no sound.
• You must use capitals.
• You cannot have excess space at the end (sometimes results from copy/paste).
• Answers do not have to have spaces between parts of the name (i.e. "Desert Rabbit (F)" can be entered as "DesertRabbit(F)").

2012 Presidential Election

There were two quizzes as part of this event. One was 6 questions long, given one at a time as separate quests by the NPC for the opposite party that you align with.

The other quiz was given by the ghost of George Washington and was 10 questions long. These had to be answered in sequence and could only be done one time by each character. For each question answered correctly, a Contributor Badge (Etc. item) was awarded. Getting 30, 45, or 60 of these would allow you to acquire an a temporary +1, +2, or +3 to all stats badge.
