Quest

Quests are groups of interrelated tasks, usually involving a story line, that can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours or even a few days to complete.

The starting locations for all quests are labelled with a blue compass icon on the minimap, and completing them can provide rewards ranging from experience and items, to access to new areas, minigames, and miniquests. Upon completing a quest, the player's run energy is fully restored, and effects such as poison are cured.

As of 8 September 2026, there are a total of 184 quests in Old School RuneScape with 24 free and 160 member-only quests. The first quest was Cook's Assistant and the most recently added quest is Crab Quest. A total of 343 quest points are rewarded for the completion of all quests, including 46 quest points from quests available to free players. Players who have obtained the maximum number of quest points are entitled to purchase and wear the quest point cape.

The quest journal on the interface has the complete list of quests. By default, each quest's name is colour coded as shown on the right.

Many Old School RuneScape quests are a part of a series of quests that share a common plot-line.

Progress in a quest series is made in a linear fashion, with each quest requiring the completion of the previous one. There are, however, a few exceptions to this progression, and are found usually when a quest is involved in multiple plot-lines.

The majority of the quest series are based out of a specific area, and their completion is often needed to access either more of that area or specific features within it. For example, West Ardougne as a whole is inaccessible unless at least some progress is made in the Elf series of quests.

A subquest is a part of another quest, which upon completion gives additional rewards as well as quest point(s). Subquests may take less time and require fewer items, although they may have additional skill or quest requirements.

• Recipe for Disaster has ten subquests (one for the recipe, one for each member of the Lumbridge council, and the final one for the Culinaromancer boss fight).

Miniquests are smaller pieces of story and skill content that are not required for the quest point cape, but still tell stories similar to quests. Most miniquests are smaller in scale and shorter than a normal quest, but may have requirements stretching higher than normal quests or none at all. Many are connected to existing pieces of content or used to tie up loose ends from quests.
