Main Quests are the first category of quests listed at the Quest Counter.
Recommended Quests
Recommended Quests are a daily selection of quests taken from the Expeditions and ARKS Quests categories. The list is always populated by one Expedition and two ARKS Quests. These quests are available to all players regardless of progress. Taking on a Recommended Quest will display a list of related client orders which can be accepted simultanously.
The selected Expedition is always related to the Daily Order Officer's Daily Boost Quests, three daily quests that each grant an additional Daily Boost 5% (stacking up to 50%), acting as a Triboost.
All three quests grant upon first completion for the day a gift from an ARKS Operative within the Gateway Ship. If the quest has been completed with an A or S rank, the gift can occasionally contain a Bonus Key.

Expeditions
For a full list of expeditions, see Expeditions.
Expeditions are Multi-Party Quests with a randomly generated map layout, often with the goal to defeat the boss (Suppression Target) at the end of the area. On certain Expeditions, the quest can be completed by collecting Quest Points which are awarded by enemy eliminations.
Gathering Points only spawn within Expeditions. Mining and fishing points are indicated by green and blue icons on the minimap, revealed as the party makes progress on the map.
Enemy Triggers can be used within these quests, spawning an Emergency Code: Variant. Using a trigger will force the host to create a new Expedition lobby within their current block. The location of the trigger is indicated on the minimap by a red enemy symbol, even if the area it is in has not been explored by the party yet. The emergency quest activates when one of the party's players enters the area of the trigger.
Standard Expeditions
Upon player entry within a new area of the map, either a group of enemies will spawn, or an emergency quest will begin. If an area of the map has had no event for a while, re-entry of a player into the unoccupied area will trigger another event to occur.
Nightfall Province Exploration functions as a standard expedition without a direct path to the boss. Instead, players obtain Quest Points by eliminating foes. After reaching 500 points, a quest Telepipe appears for the party, giving them the option to enter the second area with the boss or to return to the Gateway Ship. Eliminating the boss will complete the quest. Alternatively, if the party collects 1000 points, then the quest will be completed: in this case, the boss will not appear if the party enters the second area.
Earth Expeditions
On Tokyo Exploration and Las Vegas Exploration, groups of enemies and emergency quests are only activated near a beacon of light when at least one player gets close to it, although certain emergency quests can be activated immediately after suppressing all foes near the beacon of light regardless of player positioning (Unidentified Creatures in Las Vegas, Tokyo Joyriders).
If all parties currently in the field have obtained their required Quest Points, then no further beacons of light will spawn until a new party (which has not obtained the required amount of points) enters the same instance.
Bonus Quests
Bonus Quests are solo quests which grant substantial amounts of EXP, Meseta, and rare drops. To participate, the player needs to have a Bonus Key corresponding to the Bonus Quest they wish to enter.
Enemies spawn in waves, requiring all enemies to be eliminated to proceed to the next wave. Upon elimination of the last enemy, all the item drops from the enemies will be contained in a large red crystal, alongside a row of boxes containing rare materials specific to the Bonus Quest. All enemy waves are predetermined and are a guaranteed way to encounter certain special enemies, such as Emperappy and Tagamikazuchi.
Immediately upon completion of either Special Mission: The Harbinger [Silver] or Special Mission: The Harbinger [Gold], the player will be awarded Star Gems.
