|---|---|
| Levels | 10 to 80 |
| Starts | Owner Yeo in The Bund (sightseeing tour), The Gum-selling Girl and Chef Ajong at the Night Market, Zhu Jiejun on Ximending Street III |
| Way there | Spinel: Ximending (Taiwan), free |
| Best rewards | Strawberry Earrings, Maple Umbrella, 47,200 EXP |
| Repeat | All are one-time quests |
The Taiwan quests are four quest chains around Ximending and the Night Market: a sightseeing tour that begins in old Shanghai and ends with a souvenir from the Maple Administrator, the Gum-selling Girl's errands for her sick grandmother, Zhu Jiejun's magic gift for his sweetheart Judy, and Chef Ajong's key chain collection. Every quest is open to any job. Getting to Taiwan: see Taiwan.
Different from the original game Unlike the original game, these quests stay available all year.
How the quests work
- Each quest opens the next one in its chain. If an NPC has nothing for you, finish the step before theirs first.
- Most quest items drop from any monster, anywhere, but only while you have the quest and still need the item. Once you have enough, they stop dropping. Some Taiwan monsters also drop the same items at any time (named in the tables).
- Most quests take the collected items when you hand them in.
- The EXP in the tables is what MapleVerse pays.
Different from the original game The NPCs name particular monsters, but in MapleVerse these quest items drop from any monster while you still need them.
The quest chains

Tip The Perfect Box needs two trips: Ximending to Henesys and back. The Key to the Storage is offered by Maya only while The Perfect Box is open and you carry Yan Zi's Letter.
Different from the original game Christine and the Fruit Store Grandpa speak of a Snack Bar in the deepest part of the Night Market, but that place cannot be entered in MapleVerse. The Necklace drops from any monster instead, and the Fruit Store Grandpa's test is for EXP only.
Chef Ajong's hobby (level 45)
Chef Ajong at the Night Market collects key chains. This chain is not tied to the sightseeing tour, so you can start it at level 45 without doing that first.
| Quest | Lv | From | Hand in | What to do | Reward |
