League of Legends 2026 role quests: 7 items, better TP, level 20

Role quests in League of Legends are getting big additions and changes for 2026! Rewards range from upgraded Teleport, access to tier three boots, increased level cap, to a seventh item slot in your inventory! Here are all of the details of role quests in LoL 2026.

Role quests already exist in League. Junglers had the mission to finish their jungle item, while support players needed to complete their quest to get their specialized support item and vision wards.

In 2026, all roles in League of Legends will have their respective role quests. This is part of Riot's goal of balancing role agency, meaning the impact each player on a team is not too skewed towards a specific role or two.

Don't worry, you won't have to do anything special or different to progress these role quests. You can progress and complete them by killing minions, champions, plates, towers, or neutral objectives. You can complete them faster if you do these in your assigned lane.

Minions, plates, and towers are all changing in 2026, too. Read about them here.

As for completion time, the devs say it will vary. However, you can expect to complete them at around the same time as the support items upgrade now.

Top laners get Teleport on top of the two Summoner Spells they chose at the start of the game. This additional Teleport will have a longer cooldown, though. If Teleport is one of the chosen summs, it will instead get buffed. Upon usage, it will provide a large shield scaling off max health.

They will also get bonus experience, both up-front and from various sources, after completing the quest. Their level cap will also be increased to 20.

With the removal of Feats of Strength, the only way to get tier 3 boots will be to complete the mid lane role quest. This means that only one player per team will have access to them.

Mid laners will receive the free tier 3 boots upgrade and an empowered 4-second recall for the rest of the game upon completing their quest. According to devs, the tier 3 boots will receive minor changes from their current forms.

Bot laners will get to carry out their carry fantasy better with their role quest.

Upon completing their quest, they will receive a lump sum of gold, and increased gold from minion kills, champion kills, and assists for the rest of the game. "Where will they use this gold?" you ask.

They will get a seventh item slot as part of their quest rewards. This slot will hold their boots, freeing up space in their inventory for another Legendary item in the late-game. Since the extra slot is only for boots, this means that they cannot have seven Legendary items in their inventory.

LoL 2026 isn't only adding role quests; they're introducing new items, too. Check out all the details of the new items here to see if they're worthy of your extra inventory slot.

Jungle's current role quest upgrades their Smite and gives them the ability to use it against enemy champions. Since it is considered the most impactful and strongest role in the game right now, they were careful in changing the jungle quest.

For LoL 2026, early game clear speed will be reduced. However, they will get increased gold and experience from large monsters and extra movement speed in the jungle after they complete their quest. Smite will also deal more damage than it currently does. Combined with the tankier objectives, it should be easier for junglers to secure objectives.

Like jungle, devs also think that the support role quest that gives them an upgraded item and wards is already powerful. They are still getting changes for 2026, despite this.

Supports will get an inventory slot exclusively for Control Wards, so you won't have to give up vision control for an extra item anymore in the late game. Control wards will also be discounted for supports.
