Taiwan is an overseas region of Maple World with three towns: the shopping street of Ximending, the food stalls of the Night Market, and 101 Boulevard at the foot of the Taipei 101 tower. Ximending and the Night Market are joined by a road of hunting grounds. 101 Boulevard lies apart, with its own fashion, plaza and celebrity streets, and is linked to Ximending only by a one-way MRT (subway) ride. All three towns' maps share the street name "Formosa". Taiwan has no page of its own on the World Map.
Getting there
- By Spinel: talk to Spinel and choose Ximending (Taiwan) · Lv 23-85 or 101 Boulevard (Taiwan) · Lv 23-100. Both trips are free, and any level can take them. The level range on the label is not a requirement.
- Spinel offers these two trips in Henesys, Ellinia, Perion, Kerning City, Lith Harbor, Orbis, Ludibrium, Leafre, Mu Lung, Ariant, the Floating Market, Veracent, Boat Quay Town, Amoria, The Bund, Yu Garden and the Mushroom Shrine, and in Ximending and on 101 Boulevard themselves.
- Spinel stands in Ximending and on 101 Boulevard. Spinel's Return home there takes you back to where you left from, or to Lith Harbor if Spinel cannot tell. Spinel is not at the Night Market; walk east to Ximending to reach Spinel.
- From either Taiwan town, Spinel also offers trips to the Floating Market, The Bund, the Golden Temple, CBD, Trend Zone Metropolis, Veracent and Yu Garden. The Mushroom Shrine trip is not offered there.
- There is no road or boat into Taiwan. Spinel is the only way in.
- Ximending, Ximending MRT Station, Night Market, Night Market Plastic Surgery and 101 Boulevard can each be saved as a return point.
