Quests: types, rewards and clearing a zone

Quests are the backbone of levelling in the open world. Zarhold has 312 quests: 12 in each of the 26 zones. Every one of them is one-time — once turned in, it’s never offered again.

Quest types

Every zone has the same set:

• 4 “kill” quests — defeat a number of enemies at one spot;
• 4 “collect” quests — bring trophies from the same enemies;
• 1 Zone Boss quest — defeat the boss;
• “talk” — speak to a character in this zone;
• “find” — pick up an object on the zone map;
• “deliver” — take an item to a character in another zone.

You have to accept a quest on the zone’s quest board first: only accepted quests count. A trophy for a “collect” quest drops from every win over the right enemy until you have enough. One win advances both the “kill” and the “collect” quest for that enemy if you’ve taken both.

Quest rewards

• Experience — based on your hero’s level: at the first levels a quest gives about 10% of a level, close to 60 about 2%. Heirloom items boost this experience too.
• Copper — based on the quest’s level. “Collect” pays 1.2 times more, “deliver” 1.3 times, the boss quest 3.5 times.
• 6 Battle Pass points for every quest you turn in.
• An item — for every boss quest and roughly every third of the rest. Boss quests give a blue item, and among quests of level 20 and up about one boss quest in three gives an epic. The others usually give a green item, sometimes a blue one, rarely grey. The item is made for the quest’s level — you can wear it from that level.

How much experience each level takes is in the Experience and levels reference.

Clearing a zone

Once all 12 quests are turned in and the boss is defeated, the zone counts as cleared. Progress shows on the world map: “Quests 7 of 12 · boss still alive”. More on zones: How zones work.

FAQ

Are there daily quests?

Not among zone quests — all 312 are one-time. Daily, weekly and monthly tasks belong to the Battle Pass: Pass tasks.

How many quests can I take at once?

There’s no limit: take every quest in the zone and work on them in parallel.
