Apex `::quests` Guide

Updated: November 2, 2026. Covers all 14 quests and contracts defined in the current ::quests system.

Availability: the current source places this system behind the developer-preview gate. This guide describes the implemented routes and rewards; it is not a claim that regular-player access has been released on every world.

These are Apex's custom weekly versions. Follow the routes below rather than assuming the original OSRS requirements or rewards apply.

Getting started

Type ::quests or ::quest.
Use the quest list to check progress and travel to a starting NPC.
For the eight classic quests, talk to the starting NPC and accept the quest. Teleporting there does not accept it.
For weekly contracts, click the quest row to open its dialogue, then choose Accept quest. The contract's Teleport button takes you to its contact, not directly into a raid or boss encounter.
Complete the objective and finish the hand-in. A finished objective alone does not award a contract reward.

The panel has Quests, Info, Tiers and Stats tabs. Quest colours indicate Available, In progress and Completed.

Weekly reset rules

Each account has a personal seven-day cycle, not a shared Monday reset.
Opening the panel or accepting a quest does not start the countdown. Your first successful completion starts it.
Each quest can be completed once during that cycle.
When the timer expires, completion locks and unfinished quest progress reset for the next cycle. The new countdown starts on the next successful completion.
Lifetime points, completion statistics, reward-pass progress and permanent Fenrir unlocks are retained.
Raid, achievement, pet and Fenrir contracts require new progress after acceptance. Earlier completions and pets already owned do not count.

All 14 together award 20 weekly quest points, provided Further Achievements is available to your account. Special pass rewards are additional to these points; see Rewards.

Classic quest walkthroughs

1. Cook's Assistant

Start: Cook in Lumbridge Castle's kitchen. The panel teleports to his starting position.

Bring: 1 bucket of milk, 1 pot of flour and 1 egg.

How to get every objective: Accept the quest first. Kill imps near Port Sarim for the custom bucket-of-milk and pot-of-flour drops. Each missing item has its own 1-in-12 roll per qualifying imp kill, and the roll stops once that item is found in your inventory or bank. Pick up an egg from the chicken fields north of Lumbridge Castle; the egg is a ground pickup, not one of this quest's custom imp drops.

Talk to the Cook and accept his request.
Collect the three ingredients using the sources above.
Put all three ingredients in your inventory and talk to the Cook again.
Hand them in to finish and receive 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

2. Doric's Quest

Start: Doric at his workshop north of Falador.

Bring: 6 clay, 4 copper ore and 2 iron ore.

How to get every objective: Bring a pickaxe and mine clay rocks until you have 6 clay, copper rocks until you have 4 copper ore, and iron rocks until you have 2 iron ore. These are normal Mining resources, so Doric does not create special drops. Keep them as raw clay and ore: do not soften the clay or smelt the ore into bars.

Talk to Doric and accept the quest.
Gather the materials. The requirement is ore and clay, not bars or soft clay.
Carry the full quantities in your inventory and return to Doric.
Hand them in for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

3. Gertrude's Cat

Start: Gertrude west of Varrock.

Bring: 1 bucket of milk, 1 raw sardine and 1 doogle leaf. Leave room for a quest kitten.

How to get every objective: First accept the quest from Gertrude, then speak to either son to reach the supply stage. From that point, Port Sarim imps have separate 1-in-12 rolls for a missing bucket of milk and missing doogle leaves. Catch a raw sardine through normal Fishing, then use the doogle leaves on it in your inventory to create the seasoned sardine. Fluffs' kitten is not a monster drop: Fluffs gives it after consuming the milk and seasoned sardine.

Talk to Gertrude and offer to find Fluffs.
Talk to Shilop or Wilough near Varrock Square. Speaking to either son advances the quest; you do not need to speak to both or pay them.
Use the doogle leaves on the raw sardine to make a seasoned sardine.
Find Fluffs upstairs at the lumberyard, northeast of Varrock. Her configured position is (3306, 3512, upstairs).
Talk to Fluffs while carrying the milk and seasoned sardine. Both are consumed and you receive Fluffs' kitten.
Carry the kitten back to Gertrude and talk to her to finish for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

Imps provide quest milk and doogle leaves once you have spoken to a son. If the kitten is banked, withdraw it. If it is lost and absent from both inventory and bank, talk to Fluffs again to recover it. Gertrude's regular cat-purchase option is separate from completing this quest.

4. Imp Catcher

Start: Wizard Mizgog on the upper floor of the Wizards' Tower. The quest-panel teleport uses floor level 2.

Bring: 1 red bead, 1 yellow bead, 1 black bead and 1 white bead.

How to get every objective: Accept the quest before hunting. Kill imps near Port Sarim or Falador. Every qualifying imp kill has an independent 1-in-4 quest roll for one random bead: red, yellow, black or white. Colours can repeat, so keep killing imps until you own one of each. Beads in the bank count as owned for supply purposes, but all four must be in your inventory for the hand-in.

Talk to Mizgog and agree to retrieve his beads.
Kill imps near Port Sarim or Falador and collect all four colours.
Carry one of each colour and return to Mizgog to finish for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

Repeated colours are normal. While the quest is active, the additional quest-drop roll has a 1-in-4 chance to add a randomly selected bead; it does not guarantee your missing colour. Ordinary imp loot may also contain beads.

5. Sheep Shearer

Start: Fred the Farmer at the sheep farm north of Lumbridge.

Bring: 20 balls of wool. Shears are useful if gathering the wool yourself.

How to get every objective: Obtain shears in Lumbridge, use them on sheep to collect 20 pieces of wool, then use the upstairs spinning wheel in Lumbridge Castle to turn every piece into a ball of wool. Fred only accepts finished balls of wool; raw wool does not count. This quest does not add a special sheep or monster drop.

Talk to Fred and accept the quest.
Shear sheep for wool, then spin it into balls of wool. The upstairs spinning wheel in Lumbridge Castle is the route described by Fred.
Return with 20 balls of wool in your inventory and talk to Fred.
Hand them in for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

Raw wool does not satisfy the hand-in.

6. Witch's Potion

Start: Hetty in Rimmington.

Bring: 1 burnt meat, 1 eye of newt, 1 onion and 1 rat's tail.

How to get every objective: Accept the quest before killing anything. Port Sarim or Falador imps can supply the ingredients: a missing eye of newt and a missing onion each receive a separate 1-in-12 roll per qualifying imp kill. Kill a qualifying rat for the rat's tail; while it is missing, each rat kill has a 1-in-3 quest roll. The quest dialogue also directs players to imps for burnt meat, but burnt meat is not added by the custom guaranteed-supply hook, so it depends on the regular imp loot table. Keep all four items in your inventory for Hetty.

Talk to Hetty and accept her request.
Gather all four ingredients. Imps near Port Sarim or Falador can provide burnt meat, and active-quest drops supply eyes of newt and onions. Kill qualifying rats while the quest is active for a rat's tail.
Talk to Hetty with all four ingredients in your inventory. She takes them and prepares the potion.
Drink from Hetty's cauldron to complete the quest for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

Handing in the ingredients alone does not complete this quest. The cauldron is the final step.

7. Rune Mysteries

Start: Duke Horacio at Lumbridge Castle. Use the panel's teleport to find Apex's configured starting position.

Bring: Inventory room for quest deliveries. No ingredient shopping is required.

How to get every objective: Every required item is issued by the route's NPCs. Duke Horacio gives the air talisman, Sedridor exchanges it for the research package, and Aubury exchanges that for research notes. No monster drop is required. If an issued item is lost and is absent from both inventory and bank, the relevant NPC replaces it; a banked copy must be withdrawn instead.

Talk to Duke Horacio and accept the quest. Receive an air talisman.
Carry it to Archmage Sedridor in the Wizards' Tower basement. He takes it and gives you a research package.
Take the package to Aubury in Varrock's rune shop. He gives you research notes.
Return the notes to Sedridor to complete the quest for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward. You also receive an air talisman.

Keep the requested delivery in your inventory when talking to the next NPC. Missing quest items have recovery dialogue; check your bank first, because an existing banked copy prevents another copy being issued.

8. Romeo & Juliet

Start: Romeo in Varrock Square.

Bring: 1 cadava berry and room for a message and potion.

How to get every objective: Juliet issues the message and the Apothecary converts one cadava berry into the potion. For the berry, kill imps near Port Sarim as directed by the Apothecary; this uses the regular imp loot table rather than the weekly quest-only supply hook, so there is no special active-quest drop rate defined. Keep each delivery item in your inventory when speaking to its recipient.

Talk to Romeo and agree to speak to Juliet.
Find Juliet upstairs in the house west of Varrock. Talk to her to receive her message.
Take Juliet's message back to Romeo.
Speak to Father Lawrence in northeast Varrock's church.
Visit the Apothecary in southwest Varrock with a cadava berry. He takes it and gives you a cadava potion.
Take the potion directly to Juliet and speak to her.
Return to Romeo to finish for 1 weekly quest point, plus an eligible pass reward.

Cadava berries are available from imp loot and the existing Farming system. If a message or potion goes missing, return to the relevant NPC; withdraw a banked copy before trying to recover another.

Weekly contract walkthroughs

For every contract below: accept first, complete new progress, then choose Hand in quest in its dialogue. Reopen the dialogue through its quest row or contact NPC. Completing a raid or reaching the counter target does not automatically perform the hand-in.

9. Chambers Expedition

Contact: Nomad, through Weekly raid quests or the quest-panel row.

What creates progress: A recorded Chambers completion after acceptance. Full Chambers and Olm-only completions both increment the objective and are added together. Enter through the normal Chambers route; individual room or boss kills without a recorded completion do not count.

Accept Chambers Expedition.
Complete 10 Chambers of Xeric runs after accepting.
Both full raids and Olm-only completions count, combined toward the same target.
Hand in the contract for 2 weekly quest points and its next pass reward.

Previous raid kill counts are not credited. Use your usual raid entry route after acceptance; the panel's contact teleport does not start a raid.

10. Curtain Call

Contact: Nomad, through Weekly raid quests or the quest-panel row.

What creates progress: A recorded Theatre of Blood completion after acceptance. The contract snapshots your Theatre completion total when accepted and only counts the next 10 increases. Attempts, individual bosses and abandoned runs do not count.

Accept Curtain Call.
Complete 10 Theatre of Blood runs that increment your Theatre completion counter.
Return to the contract dialogue and hand in for 2 weekly quest points and its next pass reward.

The counter starts from your total at acceptance. Boss kills inside an unfinished raid do not replace a recorded completion.

11. Buried Ambition

Contact: Nomad, through Weekly raid quests or the quest-panel row.

What creates progress: A recorded Tombs of Amascut completion after acceptance. The contract snapshots your Tombs completion total and requires 10 later increases. Invocation level is not checked by this weekly objective, although normal Tombs entry and completion rules still apply.

Accept Buried Ambition.
Complete 10 Tombs of Amascut runs that increment your Tombs completion counter.
Hand in the contract for 2 weekly quest points and its next pass reward.

Only the increase after acceptance counts. The weekly contract adds no separate raid-level requirement; normal raid entry rules still apply.

12. Strange Companions

Contact: Probita at home, using Weekly PvM pet quest, or the quest-panel row.

What creates progress: The server's live PvM pet-drop event after acceptance. Any three qualifying PvM pet drops count, including duplicate drops. Existing pets, trades, bank withdrawals, pet reclaiming, syncing and box rewards do not trigger the counter; watch for the weekly quest progress message after the drop.

Accept Strange Companions.
Receive 3 qualifying pet drops from PvM after acceptance.
Duplicate pet drops count, and you keep the pets.
Hand in for 2 weekly quest points and its next pass reward.

Owning pets before acceptance, opening boxes, pet syncing and reclaiming pets do not count. Follow the quest's pet-drop progress message rather than counting pets in your bank. Skilling pets are outside this PvM objective.

13. Fenrir's Return

Contact: Nomad, using Weekly Fenrir hunt, or the quest-panel row.

Requirement: At least 90 Slayer to accept. Prepare for the existing Fenrir encounter.

What creates progress: The contract snapshots your tracked Apex vampyre kill total when accepted. Kill 100 more Apex vampyres, then defeat Fenrir while the accepted contract is at 100/100. Other vampyre types that do not increment the Apex vampyre counter do not count, and defeating Fenrir early does not bank the final objective.

Accept Fenrir's Return before beginning the weekly kill requirement.
Kill 100 tracked Apex vampyres after acceptance. The panel shows your vampyre progress.
Use Nomad's existing Fenrir progression to obtain the required Gold vamp sword and Gold vamp defender if you have not already unlocked them.
Equip both for Fenrir; the encounter checks the sword and defender.
Defeat Fenrir after completing the 100 weekly vampyre kills. A kill before that point does not finish the weekly contract.
Return to the contract dialogue and hand in for 2 weekly quest points and its next pass reward.

Your permanent gear entitlement and bloodwood-sap unlock remain intact between weekly cycles. They do not replace the new weekly requirement of 100 vampyres followed by a Fenrir defeat.

14. Further Achievements

Contact: Twiggy O'Korn at home, using Weekly achievement quest, or the quest-panel row.

What creates progress: Newly completed and claimed entries in the existing achievement list after acceptance. The contract snapshots your total claimed achievements and asks for the next 5, or all eligible remaining entries when fewer than 5 exist. Completing an achievement without claiming its reward does not increment this objective.

Accept the contract. It assigns 5 achievements, or the number of eligible unclaimed achievements remaining if fewer than 5 remain.
Complete and claim achievements through the existing achievement system until the assigned counter is met.
Hand in for 2 weekly quest points and its next pass reward.

If no eligible achievements remain, this contract is hidden unless it has already been accepted or completed in the current cycle. It does not require inventing new achievements or repeating ones already claimed. The final assigned counter is shown in the contract dialogue.

Rewards and reward passes

Weekly quest points are awarded in addition to the special reward sequence below. Item rewards use the normal inventory delivery paths; leave space and check the ground if your inventory is full.

Reward pass	Reward per eligible quest completion
1	One $25 donated scroll
2	One Donator Weapon Box or Donator Armour Box, selected 50/50
3	One $25 donated scroll
4	One Autumn Mystery Box and one Catalyst Mystery Box
5	A personal +20% global drop-rate boost for 3 hours

After pass 5, the sequence returns to pass 1. Additional pass-5 rewards extend the boost's expiry by another three hours; they do not create a separate +20% magnitude for every claim. The expiry uses real time.

The original eight quests advance together

Each classic quest tracks its own pass, but its next special reward is unlocked only when the other classic quests have caught up.

Example: after Cook's Assistant awards its pass-1 scroll, complete pass 1 of the other seven classics before expecting Cook's pass-2 box. If you repeat Cook's in a later cycle while it is still ahead, the quest can complete and award its weekly point, but it awards no next-pass special reward and does not consume that pass.

The six contracts advance independently

Each additional contract has its own five-pass sequence. A contract completion does not wait for the original eight classics, and it does not delay their synchronized passes.

Quest tiers and daily-task rewards

Your current cycle's tier is based on points earned in the preceding personal cycle. Completing quests builds the following cycle's tier rather than immediately changing the current one. Lifetime quest points remain a separate statistic.

Previous-cycle points	Tier	Daily reward quantity bonus
0	0	+0%
1–10	1	+10%
11–25	2	+20%
26–45	3	+30%
46–100	4	+40%
101+	5	+50%

Quantity scaling rounds down. At tier 3 or higher, a daily item reward whose name contains “box” also receives one extra box. These are the configured thresholds; the 14 listed quests alone provide at most 20 points per cycle, so the higher thresholds are not attainable from this list alone.

Preparation checklist

For one run of the original eight, prepare:

2 buckets of milk: one for the Cook, one for Fluffs.
1 pot of flour and 1 egg.
6 clay, 4 copper ore and 2 iron ore.
1 raw sardine and 1 doogle leaf, combined into a seasoned sardine.
1 red, 1 yellow, 1 black and 1 white bead.
20 balls of wool.
1 burnt meat, 1 eye of newt, 1 onion and 1 rat's tail.
1 cadava berry.
Free inventory slots for quest deliveries and rewards.

Start the relevant quests before hunting quest supplies. The extra imp/rat supply rolls depend on your active quest stage and may stop if the item is already in your inventory or bank. Ordinary loot is separate. Having ingredients ready does not skip the NPC acceptance steps.

Common problems

Problem	What to check
Teleporting did not start the quest	Talk to the starter and accept, or open the contract row and choose Accept quest.
Items are not being accepted	Withdraw the required items; hand-ins check your inventory. Check names and quantities, especially ore versus bars and balls of wool versus raw wool.
Witch's Potion is still in progress	Drink from Hetty's cauldron after handing in the ingredients.
Gertrude's Cat will not advance	Speak to a son before visiting Fluffs; bring milk and a seasoned sardine, then return the kitten to Gertrude.
Raid or pet progress stays at zero	Accept first. Historical completions and previously owned pets are not credited.
A contract reached its target but is not completed	Reopen its dialogue and choose Hand in quest.
Fenrir was defeated but the contract is unfinished	The accepted contract needs 100 new Apex vampyre kills before the qualifying Fenrir defeat.
A quest item will not be reissued	Check your bank and withdraw the existing copy.
No special pass item was received	Check whether that classic quest is ahead of the other seven in the shared pass. Weekly points and special pass rewards are separate.
The quest cannot be repeated yet	Check your personal reset countdown, which starts on the first hand-in.
Further Achievements is absent	It can be hidden when no eligible unclaimed achievements remain.
`::quests` does not open for a regular account	The current source still restricts the system to developer preview.

Source and scope

Prepared from the current local implementation, not a generic OSRS walkthrough or an assertion of deployed public availability. The scope is the quests listed by ::quests; other standalone content is not automatically part of this weekly list.
