Quest points, often abbreviated as QP, are part of the reward players get after they complete quests. They are considered a completion measure of quests in RuneScape.
The amount of points awarded depends on the quest, ranging from 1 to 6 points. A special case is Recipe for Disaster, since it is split up into 10 sub-quests, each awarding 1QP.
A full list of quests, sortable by name, amount of QP, official length and membership requirement can be found on the Quest point table.
Purely Free-to-play players can get up to 39 quest points, the current maximum amount for Members is 246 + 4 from Monkey Madness 2. To earn the right to wear the Quest point cape, players must complete every quest, and in addition earn an additional quest point by completing a second wishlist after Rag and Bone Man.
Miniquests, such as The Curse of Zaros or the Mage Arena do not give quest points.
QP requirements
Some activities require a player to have at least a certain amount of quest points:
- At 32 quest points, players can enter the Champions' Guild, to begin the ultimate free-to-play quest, Dragon Slayer and earn the right to wear the best f2p body armour.
- 55 points are required to start the Heroes' Quest, which allows access the Heroes' Guild.
- 107 quest points are one of the requirements to start the Legends' Quest, which admits players to the Legends' Guild.
- 175 points are needed to start the end-fights of Recipe for Disaster.
Tears of Guthix
Tears of Guthix is a minigame which can be played once a week and is unlocked by completing the quest of the same name. It is linked to Quest points in two ways:
- There is a requirement other than waiting one week, and that is either having gained 1QP or 100k total experience since the last visit.
- The more quest points a player has, the longer they can stay in the minigame, which means they will have the chance to collect more tears and get more experience in their lowest skill.
Trivia
- In 2001, completing some quests would add to the "influence" skill. Later, the "influence" skill was replaced by the quest point system.
- RuneScape Classic players could have up to 112 quest points.
