Cooperative Missions are PvE missions where an individual party, or parties of player characters work to meet the mission objective of a storyline mission. Cooperative Missions are always a part of the storyline of a particular chapter, so feature a number of cinematics which not only explain the objectives and flesh out the story but provide context for the following quests. All missions may be accessed though Embark Beach, provided party members have been there prior.

Cooperative Missions are indicated on the map as a shield icon. A mission which has been completed will have a number of swords or spears through it indicating whether, or how many of, the bonus objectives were achieved for the mission.

The mission is entered from an outpost of the same name as the mission. For Prophecies and Factions, the mission is available as soon as you reach the outpost for the mission. Once a party is ready to enter, the "Enter mission" button at the bottom of the party window is clicked to enter the mission. In Nightfall, an NPC needs to be talked to to enter the mission. This NPC is shown by having a green mission icon above their head. The player can easily reach a mission outpost in Nightfall but not be able to complete the appropriate mission until the right point in the storyline has passed. In Eye of the North, missions are also given by NPCs, as well as the Scrying Pool. Many Eye of the North "missions" are technically primary quests, and have resurrection shrines unlike ordinary missions, but they begin and end with cinematics, have a similar reward system, and take place in changed map zones. Accepting to enter the mission starts a 10 second countdown to entering the mission for a party with more than one human, 4 second for a single human and henchman party.

Mission rewards[edit]

A Cooperative Mission has a primary objective which must be met to complete the mission and move on. Often, a mission will have an additional objective or requirement to meet to obtain a bonus reward. Rewards in Prophecies, Factions and Nightfall are given once per character. Eye of the North missions have no bonus objectives, but can be repeated for a reduced reward.

The bonus objectives can be based on completing the mission in a certain time limit (most common in Factions), or completing certain optional goals. Prophecies missions have two mission rewards (Primary and Bonus) while Factions and Nightfall have three mission rewards (Standard, Expert, and Master).

Completion of a mission and its bonus objective(s) will reward a skill point, a certain amount of experience, gold (except normal mode Prophecies missions) per objective completed (exact amounts listed below). With the exception of skill points, the rewards are doubled in hard mode. Certain missions will also reward affiliation points - in Factions and Nightfall, these rewards are only given on the first completion. Along with this, completion of all primary and bonus objectives advances the Protector and Guardian titles.
