Age of Imprisonment has 406 quests as of version 1.0.3. Before that update the total was 402. Quests are errands you finish on the Hyrule map without fighting: you hand in the listed materials and the reward is yours, whether that is a stronger warrior, a new facility or a larger inventory. They fall into ten categories, and the table below shows the count in each.

How quests work
Handing in requirements
Open a region on the Hyrule map and pick a quest from its list. Most quests want a handful of items: monster trophies, cooking ingredients, critters, Zonaite, and in some cases Korok Seeds or Poe. Gather them in battles and challenges, then submit them at the quest. Handing in a quest never needs a fight of its own. A smaller group instead asks you to have cleared a particular story battle or challenge, and it appears on the map only once you have.
When quests appear
Most quests are tied to story progress. A quest shows up after a specific battle, such as The Howling Tempests or Terror of the Sands, or after a particular challenge. A warrior’s own quests only appear once that warrior has joined you, and they open gradually as the story moves along. After the credits, a batch of further quests opens, including the late upgrades and the Lenalia’s Sketches. Two quests, A New Assignment and Life in Hyrule, are part of the story itself: finishing them is what lets the next battle appear on the map.
Regions and 100 percent completion
Every quest sits in one of the map’s regions: Central Hyrule, Hebra, Eldin, Gerudo, Necluda, Lanayru, Akkala, Faron, Sky and the Depths. Clearing all of a region’s quests and challenges fills its completion bar, shown in the upper right of the map. Full regions are what the Lenalia’s Sketches quests ask for, and the challenges page lists the battles you need alongside them.
What the updates added
The free updates grew the list after launch. Version 1.0.2 added Answering the Call for Zelda and five post-game Pure Zonaite Steel quests. Version 1.0.3 added four more: three for the Knight Construct (The Knightly Cowherd, Smashin’ Boulders and Navigating the Darkness) and To the Skies, Once More, which gives you the Sky Island Sparring Circle. That is the whole gap between 402 and 406.

Character quests
Character quests are the biggest category by far, with 298 across the 19 playable warriors. Most warriors have 14 or 15, Mineru has 18, Zelda 20, and the Knight Construct has 32 since version 1.0.3 (29 before it). The rewards upgrade that warrior’s basic actions, strong attacks and unique skills, add bonus hearts, or lengthen the special-attack gauge. Every quest, requirement and reward is on Character Quests.
Services and improvements
Services (10) build the facilities you use between battles, from the Weapons Research Base to the training camps and supply depots. Improve Services (12) make those facilities better, for instance by raising the weapon level limit by 5, removing weapon seals or trimming prices. Material Sensor (4) adds the sensor that marks material locations on the map and then widens it.
Battle Support, Items and Camp
Battle Support (15) is where your spare Korok Seeds go. These quests raise Zonaite Steel and weapon capacity and add finders that count hidden Koroks and chests in a stage. Items (4) lift the limits on Special Rations and Batteries, and Camp (6) lets you pitch a camp before battle, opens the Tusk & Talon shop and adds supply slots. See Service and Support Quests for all of them.
Improve All Allies
These 28 quests give the whole party a permanent bonus: extra hearts, a better special-attack charge rate, lower enemy damage, extra EXP, a larger energy gauge, stronger sync strikes and fuse attacks. Two of them are the story-gating quests mentioned above, and five post-game ones, added in version 1.0.2, reward Pure Zonaite Steel. They are also listed on Service and Support Quests.
Lenalia’s Sketches
The 11 Lenalia’s Sketches quests open after the main story. Ten of them each ask for 100 percent of one region and reward a Lenalia’s Sketch plus a weapon, and the last asks for all ten sketches and completes Lenalia’s murals. The full list is on Lenalia’s Sketches.
Aside Quests
The map also carries 18 Aside Quests, one for each warrior except the Knight Construct, and each pays out a Bonus Conversation. They are separate from the optional objectives that warriors call out mid-battle, which are opened with the + menu and number over 180. Both kinds are covered on Aside Quests.
Tips for finishing every quest
Planning your materials
Quest requirements tend to repeat: Bokoblin, Lizalfos and Hinox Trophies show up again and again, so farm them early in challenges and replayed battles rather than hunting for one quest at a time. Hold on to your Korok Seeds for Battle Support, Items and Camp quests, which together swallow dozens of them (see Korok Seed Locations). Poe is needed by only a few quests, but two of them ask for 200 and 500. The 100% completion checklist shows where quests fit in the whole sweep.
