There is actually a 12th category, "RecruitCompanion", which is rewarded for recruiting the following companions: [[Shadowheart]], [[Astarion]], [[Gale]], [[Wyll]] and [[Karlach]]. Each recruitment rewards 30 xp. Recruiting [[Lae'zel]] and the non [[origins]] companions doesn't reward any experience.


For example, in the quest [[Find the Blood of Lathander]] occurring in [[Act One]], one of the steps is ''"We learned that a powerful holy relic, the Blood of Lathander, could be somewhere nearby. We should keep an eye out for it as we explore the monastery."''. Its reward category is "ProgressMajor" and its completion triggers inside the [[Rosymorn Monastery]], which is a level 5 area. So completing this step grants 30 experience.

Some steps reward experience but don't appear in the Quest Journal. They are internally distinguishable for having an objective prefixed by {{c|HIDDEN_}}, a description equals to {{c|%%% EMPTY}} and their reward category is one of the "Booster" ones. For example, there is a hidden step in the Classroom of the [[Crèche Y'llek]]. If the party saves [[Varrl]] either by talking down the teacher or healing them after the non-leathal injury, they will complete the step and the Quest Journal won't mention it. Its reward category is "CloseBoosterEasy" and its completion triggers in a level 5 area, so completing this hidden step rewards 35 experience.

Some steps also override the level of the area that triggers the completion (internally referenced as "LevelOverride"). For example, in the last objective of the quest [[Discover the Artefact's Secrets]], there are three mutually exclusive steps. Two of them override the area level, which is 5, to 6. Their reward category is "CloseMajor" and the override changes the reward from 120 to 145 experience. There are 21 steps in total in the game that override their area level: 4 steps that override it to level 2 and 17 steps that override it to level 6.

Each recruitment rewards 30 xp. Recruiting [[Lae'zel]] is part of the main quest {{Quest|Find a Cure}}, has the reward category "ProgressMain" and rewards 20 xp. Recruiting the non [[origins]] companions later in the game doesn't reward any experience.


There are also 2,728 quest steps without any reward category. They effectively grant 0 experience on completion.
