This guide lists quests in terms of least amount of training required when completed in order. It is not necessarily the most optimal order to complete all quests in, and does not take into account boosts, diaries, experienced gained in combat.

This list does not include suggestions for combat levels. Boss fights might be nearly impossible to do with the stats listed here. Always make sure to train up your combat stats to a level at which you're confident you can kill or survive dangerous parts of the listed quests.

You can hover over a skill reward to see the experience after completing the quest.
