The short version

30-second read
  • Short levels can join the same order. No quester can make Song of the Elves accept 65 Agility when it wants 70, so add the training or train first.
  • Desert Treasure II is the priciest single quest. Short early quests cost under a dollar, Express adds 40% and PayPal adds 15% at checkout.
  • Ironmen need the ironman list. Quest items get made, caught or looted on the account first, so the normal price does not cover that gathering.
  • Quote quest cape progress as one list. It works out cheaper than ordering single quests, and package lines exist for Barrows gloves, Dragon Slayer II and Song of the Elves.

The Short Answer

Yes. Quests are one of the most ordered categories, because a quest cannot be made shorter by playing better. Monkey Madness II takes about as long the tenth time as the first, so the time you pay to skip is time you could not have optimised anyway.

Two things to know before you order. Jagex's rules forbid it, because someone else logs in to your account. And the quest still needs your account to meet its requirements: Song of the Elves wants 70 Agility, and no quester can make it accept 65. If a level is short, add the training to the same order or train it first.

What Jagex's Rules Say About Paid Questing

The OSRS Wiki's page on the game rules records that in March 2021 Jagex updated rule ten, the one on buying and selling accounts, to cover services as well. Training, quests and completing the Inferno for an infernal cape are the examples it lists. A September 2021 clarification adds that players must not share, transfer or lend their account, and that each account should only be used by the person who created it.

So paying someone to log in and do your quests breaks the rules, and no provider can change that or promise you will never be actioned. The one carve-out the update describes is multiplayer content where you play your own account, such as paying a Barbarian Assault team in gold for a fighter torso. A quest order means someone else plays your account, so the carve-out does not cover it.

What a provider controls is how the work is done. Ours is played by hand with no bots or macros, and our terms say plainly that we are not responsible for bans, mutes, rollbacks or loss of Hardcore status. On your side, change your password before and after the order, and stay logged out while it runs unless the team clears it.

What a Quest Order Costs

Every quest on our quest list has its own price line, so you pay for the quests you pick and nothing else. Single quest lines run from under a dollar for the short early quests up to the grandmasters, and Desert Treasure II is the most expensive single quest on both the normal and the ironman list.

FactorEffect on the price
Quest lengthGrandmasters such as Desert Treasure II, Song of the Elves and While Guthix Sleeps sit at the top of the list
Account typeFor most quests, including Desert Treasure II and Song of the Elves, the ironman line costs more, because the items are gathered instead of bought
ExpressAdds 40% to the line and moves it from about 8 to about 20 working hours a day
Payment methodPayPal adds 15% at checkout
Missing requirementsSkill levels the quest needs are quoted as a skilling order on top

Packages for bigger goals

  • Quest cape: three package lines, for quests only, quests plus skills, or quests and skills from scratch
  • Barrows gloves: Recipe for Disaster as a package, quests only or with the skills, on normal or ironman accounts
  • Dragon Slayer II: two package lines that include the lead-up quests, one of them with skills from scratch
  • Song of the Elves: package lines for normal and ironman accounts, where you provide the supplies and bonds
  • Free-to-play quests: bundle lines for normal and ironman accounts, with or without the skills

For a quest cape or any long list, send the remaining quests in live chat and the team quotes the gap as one order.

Why Quests Are the Most Sensible Thing to Outsource

Skill training has a fastest method, and plenty of players enjoy squeezing XP out of it. A quest is a fixed run of dialogue, travel and fights. Knowing the wiki guide makes it smoother, and Recipe for Disaster is still ten parts long.

The quests people order most often

  • The grandmasters, because they are long and their prerequisite chains are longer: Desert Treasure II, Song of the Elves, Dragon Slayer II, While Guthix Sleeps
  • Recipe for Disaster, which is an intro, eight subquests and a finale, and ends in Barrows gloves
  • Quest cape progress, where the remaining list is long and each quest on it is ordinary
  • Quests that gate something else: Song of the Elves for Prifddinas and the Gauntlet, Priest in Peril for Morytania

CanCannot

06

Normal Accounts and Ironmen Are Different Orders

We split quests into two lists because the work differs. A main buys most quest items on the Grand Exchange. An ironman cannot trade or use the Exchange, so every item is made, caught or looted on the account first, and on a long quest that gathering can be the bigger half of the order.

  • Normal accounts: quest cape progress and single completions, priced per quest
  • Ironman, hardcore and ultimate accounts: the same quests with ironman-aware requirements and routing, priced on their own lines

If you play an ironman, order from the ironman list. The normal price does not cover the gathering, and on the longer quests the gap is large.

07

The Alternative Worth Considering

If what you want is the unlock, check what gates it. Some things people order a whole grandmaster for have a narrower path.

  • The Gauntlet needs Song of the Elves itself, so there is no shortcut there
  • Barrows gloves come from Recipe for Disaster, which can be ordered part by part or as a package
  • Each ancient ring needs one kill of its Desert Treasure II boss before you can wear it, and the quest's prerequisite chain is most of the work to get there
  • A quest cape is cheaper to plan as one quote on your remaining list than as single quests
08

How a Quest Order Works

Start Order opens a ticket and charges nothing. The team checks your requirements, you pay, then send login details on the ticket. Every step from cart to handover is in How an OSRS Questing Service Order Works, Step by Step.

If you ask for a refund after paying and before the work begins, a 15% cancellation fee applies, unless the problem was on our side.

09

What to Sort Out Before It Starts

Quest orders have one risk that skilling orders do not: an unmet requirement stalling the order half way.

Table 4Before you pay7 rows
RiskHow it is handled
Missing skill requirementsThe team checks on the ticket before you pay. Short levels are added to the same order.
Account typeOrder from the ironman list for any ironman, hardcore or ultimate account.
MembershipOnly 24 quests are free-to-play, so most orders need active membership.
Items you want keptSay so on the ticket. Some quests use up items, and it is easier to agree that in writing first.
Password and bank PINChange the password before and after the order. Change the bank PIN if the team asks.
Hardcore ironmanAccepted. The team plays to avoid any death, though a rare internet or power cut can still cause one, and that is never on purpose.
What we do not coverBans, mutes, rollbacks and loss of Hardcore status, per our terms.

FAQ

Is it allowed to pay someone to do OSRS quests?

No. Jagex's rule on buying and selling accounts and services has named quests since March 2021, and sharing an account is against the rules as well. People still order quests, but the risk stays with the account and no provider can remove it.

How much does it cost to pay someone to do a quest?

Each quest has its own line price. The shortest early quests cost under a dollar, and Desert Treasure II is the most expensive single quest on both lists. Express adds 40%, and PayPal adds 15% at checkout.

Can I buy OSRS quests one at a time?

Yes. Add only the quests you need. There are also package lines for the quest cape, Barrows gloves, Dragon Slayer II, Song of the Elves and the free-to-play quests.

Can I order a whole quest cape?

Yes. There are three quest cape package lines: quests only, quests plus the skills, or quests and skills from scratch. If you already have part of the list done, send the remaining quests and your stats in live chat and the team quotes the gap as one order.

11 · Bottom line

Bottom Line

You can pay someone to complete OSRS quests, and it is one of the easier orders to justify because a quest's length cannot be played away. It is still against Jagex's rules, and that risk stays with your account.

Cost is per quest, from under a dollar for the short ones up to Desert Treasure II, with packages for the quest cape and Barrows gloves. Express adds 40% for about 20 working hours a day.

Check requirements first and order from the list that matches your account type. Those two steps prevent most stalled quest orders.
