Related pagesScouting Challenges, Vicious Battles

Age of Imprisonment has 167 challenges: optional battles that appear on the map as you push the story forward. Eight of them are scouting challenges that recruit extra warriors, and sixteen are late-game Vicious Battles. The quick-reference tables below list every one with its recommended level, the warriors you may bring and its first-clear reward, and each band links to the page that covers its battles in detail.

How challenges work

Unlocking and clearing challenges

Challenges show up on the Hyrule map as you recapture regions during the story and finish earlier battles, so most of them are open well before the credits. Each carries a recommended level, and some limit which warriors you may bring: certain challenges allow only one or two named characters, while others accept anyone. Pick a challenge whose level is close to your party’s and bring a warrior it allows.

Rewards

Every challenge pays out once, the first time you clear it. Typical rewards are cooking materials, Rupees, a piece of Zonaite Steel in one of the weapon types, and sometimes a random weapon. Higher bands pay Zonaite Steel (Pristine) and then Pure Zonaite Steel (Pristine), and a handful hand out Korok Seeds or a signature weapon.

Lenalia's Sketch

Completion and Lenalia’s Sketches

Finishing every quest and challenge in a region brings that region to 100 percent, which is what Lenalia’s Sketches ask for. The challenges that arrived with the free updates in the Lv 81 to 90 band do not count toward that completion, so you can leave them until last. The 100% completion checklist covers the rest of the sweep.

Challenge pages by level

Where each band is covered

The challenges are split across five pages. Challenges Lv 1-30 covers the early bands (42 battles), Challenges Lv 31-50 the middle (57) and Challenges Lv 51-90 the late game (44). The eight recruitment battles are on Scouting Challenges and the sixteen hardest fights are on Vicious Battles.

Tips for clearing challenges

Choosing what to fight first

Work through the bands in order. The rewards scale with the level, so clearing the lower tiers first gives you Zonaite Steel and materials that make the next band easier. Challenges that restrict you to named warriors are a good way to level characters you do not normally use.

Finding a specific material

Rewards are paid only on the first clear, so replaying a challenge does not farm it again. When you need a specific material, scan the tables above for a challenge that pays it before heading out to hunt.
