LoL Role Quests Explained (2026): Every Role's Quest, Points and Reward

Role Quests arrived with League of Legends' first patch of 2026 and changed what every position is playing for. Each player gets a quest for the role they're assigned in champion select, fills it by playing that role well, and unlocks a reward that only that role gets — from a level-20 cap for top laners to a seventh item slot for bot. Riot has tuned the system several times since, most of all in patch 26.9. This guide covers how the points come in, what each role needs and gets on patch 26.21, and how to finish your quest sooner.

What Role Quests are

A Role Quest is a per-player objective tied to your assigned position. It shows in a Role Quest slot on your HUD, fills as you play your role, and pays out a reward that changes how you play the rest of the game. Riot added them in patch 26.1 alongside the removal of Atakhan and the Feats of Strength — the old team bonus that handed out Tier 3 boots now lives in Mid's quest. Quests apply to Summoner's Rift queues with assigned positions (custom lobbies included).

Every role's quest and reward

Role	Needs	Earned from	Reward
Top	1,200 points	Time in lane, minions, takedowns, plates and turrets	Level cap 20, +600 XP, 11% bonus XP and 80 bonus XP per takedown, plus Unleashed Teleport (390 s) — with Teleport already equipped you get a shield on arrival instead and 30 s off its cooldown
Jungle	35 pet treats	Feeding treats to your jungle pet (camps and champions)	Primal Smite, +10 gold and +10 XP per camp, and 4% movement speed in the jungle and river (8% out of combat)
Mid	1,350 points	Time in lane, minions, takedowns (25 each) and damage to champions	8% bonus AD and AP, and your Tier 2 boots become exclusive Tier 3 boots for free
Bot	1,350 points	Time in lane, minions (3 each), takedowns, plates and turrets	+300 gold, then +2 gold per minion and +40 gold per champion takedown; your boots move to the Role Quest slot, freeing a seventh item slot
Support	800 points (gold from your support item)	Gold earned through the World Atlas / Runic Compass support quest	Runic Compass becomes Bounty of Worlds with a free Upgrade for one of five items; Control Wards cost 40 gold and two can sit in the Role Quest slot

Values as the official League of Legends wiki lists them for patch 26.21. Riot tunes them often — check the patch notes after each update.

How the points come in

Top, Mid and Bot share one system. Top, Mid and Bot earn 1.5 points a second in their assigned lane from 1:05 (1 point every 3 seconds elsewhere), paused for 12 seconds after a Recall. On top of that, actions pay points:

Mid also turns damage to champions into points (3% of the damage for melee champions, 1.5% for ranged), which is why trading well in mid fills the quest faster. Junglers count pet treats instead — 35 of them — and supports count the gold earned through the support item, 800 in total.

Leaving your lane: the cut and the roaming allowance

How to finish your quest sooner

1. Be in lane at 1:05.

   The passive trickle starts then and is the steadiest source of points for every laner.

2. Last-hit everything.

   Minions pay quest points as well as gold — 3 each for Bot, 2 for Top and Mid. Use the CS calculator to see how much of your lane you're taking.

3. Take plates and turrets in your lane.

   40 points a plate and 50 a turret — and plates stay up all game since patch 26.1.

4. Show up to epic monsters.

   An assist on a drake, grubs, Herald or Baron is 30 points. Track them with the objective timer.

5. Roam after you've earned it.

   Two minutes in lane buys one minute away without the cut — push, then move.
