Overlap in Monster Collection / Familiar system

Monster collection and the familiar system should be merged with the positive aspects of both, currently monster collection has minimal relevance while the familiar system is far more janky while both of them already incentivize similar game-play.

The resulting system should:
- Make familiar badges follow per world progression (or even retire this completely).
- Combine Monster Collection expeditions and Mystic Frontier, having the ability to see active expeditions on any character.
- Automatically add familiar resources from defeated mobs instead of requiring players to manually load familiars from the "use" inventory.
- Make the automatically added familiar resources able to upgrade/reroll any monster from the same region, if it has been added to the monster collection.

Currently combat potentials of familiars are effectively tied to a character, since the monster is irrelevant in combat ; I would suggest only allowing 1 copy of each monster that maintains their mystic frontier potential, and granting the combat potentials players have on their familiars in a similar way to "inner ability".

    I rather see Monster Collection and Familiar System kept separate and have changes be done to familiars instead of tying them together. Monster Collection is a stable across all regions and Familiars is featured in some regions and each have their own interpretation of it. If Nexon Korea changes Monster Collection all of a sudden, it could mess up something since our version will be so much different. Individual changes have been suggested for Familiars such as Blue Cards, removing the animation when extracting and fusing, and increasing slots available for familiars. Players don't see account badges a world wide thing as urgent since they find poor fusion rates and restricted space and not being able to re roll all leading to not being able to roll good lines a bigger issue but its still valid.
