‼-spoilers-general-‼

[split wave]

sometimes it bugs out and you can't interact with anything, just restart the game or load a save

[fossil orchid]

if other games would make a big orange barrier preventing you from entering that part with your mount they would get criticized because of aesthetics. HL can say „Wizards and Witches draw a magical barrier“

[split wave]

it makes sense for hogsmeade, but not the area surrounding the playable area

[fossil orchid]

ye the mountains for example

[split wave]

also having to go through the tunnel to get to the south part also only makes gameplay sense

[fossil orchid]

and they said no dlcs are planned so its not like they planned on do stuff there later

For me the Game is a solid 7/10

mainly because they advertised you can be the wizard/witch you want but your mc answers polite af in every situation xd

[split wave]

and there are two spots in the top right part of the map which look discoverable, but they aren't

[fossil orchid]

I mean „i dont want your respect“ sounds for me like

„i dont want your respect because i dont give a f about you since im better than you anyway“

in reality it’s something like

„i dont want your respect because you bully others“

[split wave]

6/10 or 7/10 for me, really fun gameplay, but it's basically a gigantic missed opportunity, with nothing which makes me replay it again as nothing has consequences and you're railroaded too hard
I remember playing through ME3 3-4 times in the first two months after its release, as it felt like I would see something new every time, even though the big story beats are the same, it at least did a very good job to make the details matter

[fossil orchid]

Yes they missed so many opportunities

another thing are the duels, only 3? rlly? where is the part where i can torture or kill students

[split wave]

I still need to play a slytherin to the map chamber, for the achievement and the only quest where a choice mattered (the house) and then I'm out of things to do

[fossil orchid]

im sure they removed some stuff to get a low pegi rating

[fossil orchid]

you can sell more if your game is rated for 12 yo than for 18 yo

[split wave]

true, but they did claim you could go dark wizard/witch

[fossil orchid]

ye but you can’t i mean ye you can learn the 3 curses but no one cares or fears you

[split wave]

also it seems not even the last choice in the story (keeping the repository a secret or not) has any consequences

[fossil orchid]

yes thats why i would love to see a 2 pathed dlc where your path is defined by whatever you chose at this point

and imo wands should’ve been gear and not a you choose one time and never change it again

[honest karma]

I'd like to see a sequel for y6 and y 7 myself

[split wave]

nah, the MC goes "I'll keep it a secret for now anyway, I just might tell others about it later, maybe when I'm about to die"

[fossil orchid]

yes year 6 could explain why trial 3 had the deathly hollows

maybe to teach the mc that there are things out there that are very powerful and can be a threat

[split wave]

it makes sense in universe, but I wished that it had stats which basically gave you base stats you start the game with

[fossil orchid]

and year 7 could be a story that defines if you become a dark wizards or a good guy

[honest karma]

I feel wand as a one off makes sense. You could have things like the handle and a gem or rune sequences that adjust stats if you want. Though I would have liked to see more cores as this is the time period your meant to have things like alicorn hairs, thestral hairs, dubog heart strings and more as it was Olivander who went to these 3 as he felt they were the most stable.

[fossil orchid]

true but imagine how cool it would be to unlock different wands by using expilliarmus on enemies, like a 40 or 50% Chance to get their wand (either as gear or cosmetics)

[split wave]

also: feels weird that I was berated for not doing a 100% on the field guide in the last quest with weasly before the ceremony, and then, without doing anything else she was like "oh they did so much, 100 points for ravenclaw"

[fossil orchid]

ye the 100 points were because saving hogwarts

its the harry potter behavior but 100 years earlier

[split wave]

no, you unlock the quest via level, you only get xp by filling the field guide

[honest karma]

I could have also used a bit more consistency on when the professors have more dialogue I keep ducking back to see if they will talk to me again

[fossil orchid]

It would be nice if you can actually get and lose points on your way to become a wizard

imagine you have a chance of losing 5 Points for attacking a student

[honest karma]

it does feel weird being told "Points for Ravenclaw" then seeing the hour glass is completely empty

[split wave]

it would be nice if the hourglasses actually fill over time

[fossil orchid]

Yes and changes depending on what you do

More sidequests and stuff for getting points and more „illegal“ stuff for losing pointd

You attack a student, someone sees it he snitches, 5 points gone

[blissful kiln]

anyone else who beat the game and have 1 of the carpets on floor that is undeletable?

[honest karma]

fail the library stealth and lose points, learn a spell first tiem gain them?

[fossil orchid]

yes get caught at night time in general -> lose points

[honest karma]

I would liek to see other girls in the bedroom at night I know that much. Its just me in the 5th year room and not enough rooms for all 7 years

[blissful kiln]

i just got the last room expansion and 1 of the carpets is undeletable and i cant move it or edit it... very frustrating....

[fossil orchid]

aim at it

[blissful kiln]

i am

[split wave]

helping weasly in the potions class also doesn't do anything, he still has the same explosion, and no points are deducted from your house when helping, regardless of apologizing or not
if they tease such a system there, why not just do it, that at least would have given one some incentive to explore different options
as it's currently is 3/4th of the dialogue is the same

[blissful kiln]

it cant be interacted with

[fossil orchid]

Yes sooo many missed opportunities

I think before they work on any dlc they should rework the way the game works

[honest karma]

I feel Weasley is going to be a major crime lord when he grows up.

Me: "Are you asking me to steal something?"
Him: "It's not like I'm asking you to break into Gringotts. But yes, yes I am."

[split wave]

this, but they'd never do it

[fossil orchid]

yes

[honest karma]

they did put a lot of love into the game I just hope if a sequels authorized they take this and add a bit more life to the general game sit in chairs, eat food in the great hall, NPC's actually responding to what your'e doing

[blissful kiln]

this carpet is ruining the whole room...

[fossil orchid]

oh and more minigames would be nice, for example magic chess against ai

[fossil orchid]

maybe ask in #1063582649647628409

[honest karma]

I never did find a proper pair of dragon hide gloves for Herbology. I also feel if I'm wearing pants someone should comment on it as witch's don't wear pants aside from the MC

I'm not saying the kind of furor you'd getting in muggle london at this time but if a 15 year old witch in 1890 is wearing armoured britches and a dragonhide coat you'd think someone would mention it

[fossil orchid]

You can explain everything with magic, maybe muggles can’t see those clothes and you look „normal“ to them

i mean in harry potter movies none of the muggles noticed or mentioned that the Golden Trio appeared out of nowhere right in the middle of the street

[honest karma]

oh these are magic folk and you have ones like nellie in pants it just feels like it should have some aknowledgement even in a "Young girls these days you'd never catch me wearing pants in public."

[static dome]

can you add the snidgets to your vivarium in the room of requirement?

[split wave]

no

[static dome]

damn
so the only snidgets you ever see is in that one cutscene?

[split wave]

only stuff that has a den on your map + the phoenix you get from the quest
yes that's correct

[static dome]

dangit

they are so cute 🥹

[fossil orchid]

what is snidgets

[static dome]

you will learn in poppy's side quest

[split wave]

little birdies the golden snitch is modeled after, believed to be extinct, but you find some in the last quest of poppies story

[fossil orchid]

i finished all quests but my game is german

[static dome]

can you speak german?

[honest karma]

These quests always seem so bleak. Even the retire auror notes gave up on gardenign as her plants died

[split wave]

ya, iirc German translation of HP always was quite fast and loose

[fossil orchid]

yes otherwise my game wouldn’t be german, i just wanted to know what snidgets are because im not familiar with the english names xd

[static dome]

the little golden birds that hatch in the hufflepuff girls side quest

[fossil orchid]

Yes i know ^^

„Schnatzer“ is the german name of them iirc

[static dome]

weird

[split wave]

haven't played a game in German since 2008

[fossil orchid]

Another Thing i dont like about HL is that some buttons are Toggles and not like Temporary

[split wave]

such as?

[fossil orchid]

holding the key down for sprinting would be way better than toggling it

same for broom fast/slow mode

[split wave]

iirc there's an option for sprint being a toggle or not

[fossil orchid]

really? gonna check that out later

[split wave]

though this is one of the few games where I think it plays better with a controller

[fossil orchid]

yes it is, games with a „free“ fight system are better on controller most of the times

The Witcher, Nier Automata, HL etc.

[honest karma]

my sprints on toggle

[split wave]

I know that mine def isn't, but I'm not at my pc

[honest karma]

I am so jelous of some of these NPC's outfits this is a wonderful leather coat

[split wave]

[dusk garnet]

I just checked and have 11 missing and 11 gaps so I must have found them all

[split wave]

they could have easily saved the time and only done half the outfits, most of them are too similar anyway

[honest karma]

there are two school robes I can't tell the difference between and while I love the gold trim one I can' tjustify wearing it as I'd be the only one. Might have been better for all the colour variants to have the option of colouring clothes on the loom instead

I am sad the wands each have 3 colour variants instead of any colour with any shape.

[split wave]

I am sad that they just look like sticks

[static dome]

what should i do with the repostory

[feral locust]

Keep it concealed

[static dome]

alr

[fossil orchid]

what?

[feral locust]

The repository. You can contain it or release it

[fossil orchid]

yes but it doesn’t really matter what you do

[feral locust]

It doesn't but they asked and I answered

[full torrent]

Well it basically is just a stick lol

Like what else should they look like

[severe sable]

Anyone here who completed Arthur Plummley's task for the Historians robe that can enter the snow painting after completing? There's a field guide inside there that I couldn't activate at the time. But now I cannot cast accio on the little ring above the painting anymore.

[static dome]

PROFESSOR FIG

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

GOD DAMN IT
WHY DID HE HAVE TO DIE
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[dusk garnet]

yeah im not looking forward to that bit

[fossil orchid]

i dont care about him tho

[static dome]

bro you are going to cry

[static dome]

bro
you have any sympathy or care?

[fossil orchid]

not for him tho

[severe sable]

Anyone?

[static dome]

you literally insane dude
what beef do you have with the poor man??

[fossil orchid]

No beef, i simply do not care xd

[static dome]

literally you have no emotion fr

[fossil orchid]

the only ones i care about r poppy, sebastian and prof garlick

[static dome]

simp-

[fossil orchid]

Yes

[static dome]

cringe
that and no sympathy for prof fig

[fossil orchid]

fig was useless most of the time

[static dome]

bro oml
he was nice and guided us and was our mentor

dude was a really nice guy

[fossil orchid]

sooner or later you will be better than your mentor

[static dome]

yeah
but you are still grateful for his teaching
but you felt nothing when he died

[split wave]

the story didn't really offer much to build an emotional connection with any character

[fossil orchid]

nah im not grateful, as you can tell by the story you learn most of the stuff by other professors

[fossil orchid]

only sebastian and poppy imo

[split wave]

I had more an emotional connection with Ominis than Sebastian

[static dome]

bro you didn't feel sad when professor fig died too?

[split wave]

but ya, Poppy was good

[hexed rain]

Sacrilege!
Dressing up is half the endgame! (Decorating your Room is the other half...)

[split wave]

there are better games for both of those things

[fossil orchid]

i dont like most of the outfits because you can’t really combine much

there should have been an option to change the colors rather than having the same outfit retextured

[static dome]

i have had the suit of armour from slaying spiders for the entire game lmao

[fossil orchid]

i was dressed as some evil street magician

[hexed rain]

I totally agree - colour channels and a dying system would take dressing our dolls to a whole new level. (Or, in my case, action figures...)

[split wave]

it was a nice scene, but really no built up to it
up until that point I actually expected him to be the actual boss of the game as he'd turn on us

[fossil orchid]

for example using the beasts resources to dye the clothes

[blazing relic]

I felt more evil when I took Zenobia’s Gobbsstones than using Avada Kedavra on any of the human enemies

[static dome]

really?
i felt a build up for it imo
i felt really sad for him

[split wave]

I have over 500 mallowsweet and other plants

[static dome]

what happens when you take them?
you see, i was a good person.

[fossil orchid]

btw is the enemy drop useful for anything? for example the evil dogs stuff

[static dome]

potions

[split wave]

potions, which I never used

[fossil orchid]

okay so its not useful at all

[blazing relic]

Basically the whole “just you wait, I’ll be a menace” like lol okay. Lmk when you learn the Unforgivables too

[static dome]

nobody uses potions except the healing one lmao

[split wave]

I actually had to drink potions to be able to pick them up from kettle the as I was full (to get the achievement of brewing every potion)

[fossil orchid]

exactly

[static dome]

literally have all of them

[blazing relic]

The thunderbrew potion isn’t so bad. Especially doing those enemy wave trials

[static dome]

literally never used it

[fossil orchid]

yes but you dont need it anyway

you can defeat them perfectly without using those potions

potions = useless bufffood

[blazing relic]

Now the invisibility potion, that’s actually useless

[static dome]

fr

[split wave]

I guess it was a leftover from having to sneak around at night

[static dome]

yeah

[fossil orchid]

another thing that doesn’t make any sense is the gate at the entrance on the quidditch side

it’s closed and night time but opens if you go near it

why tf does it let you go outside if you aren’t supposed to be there in first place

[split wave]

I never went through it as at that point I had the broom and was just brooming away from there

[static dome]

oh ffs prof fig and now natty

[split wave]

hmm I could try to get the records for the broom races, but it doesn't give you anything, does it?

[static dome]

no

[amber skiff]

After ranrock dragon gets down to like quarter health and he begins to walk sorta? What is the best thing to do in this situation? It's really hard to dodge when he runs at you.

[split wave]

press LB+RB and you're good

[amber skiff]

Is that the dodge?

[split wave]

no, ancient magic

[amber skiff]

Oh, yeah ive been doing that

the issue is that i literally have no potions lol
only strength ones so i have very little health

[static dome]

healing?

[split wave]

did you use the loom to upgrade your stuff?

[static dome]

yeah, you need to prepare

[split wave]

I just oneshot that phase with ancient magic, so I have no idea what he's actually doing

[kind comet]

Does the different houses give different spells?

[fossil orchid]

No

Only different clothes obviously and one house specific quest

[kind comet]

So, like every house can use every spell?

[amber skiff]

The ancient magic does a fair bit, but not one shot

[fossil orchid]

yes

[kind comet]

What about exclusive items?

[amber skiff]

yeah

[split wave]

different colored clothes, the clothes are still the same

[split wave]

they're the same, just house colored and changed logo

[fossil orchid]

i think its obvious what i mean, even different color makes them different clothes tho

[amber skiff]

If I back out of the quest, I'll have to redo all of the fights right?
Im on the last fight so its kinda hard to chose lol

[kind comet]

Yes, but is there any exclusive items you can buy, get or receive? Like limited ones.

[split wave]

no

[fossil orchid]

technically the house cloak from the house chest

[static dome]

wdym by 'all of the fights'

[amber skiff]

Like, the goblins, then the first 2 stages of the dragon

[static dome]

yes

[kind comet]

What does the dark arts extra pack get you?

[amber skiff]

ima just keep trying to kill him with no potions

[split wave]

that's still the same item, just has a different house logo and color

[static dome]

thestral mount and cosmetic things
also dark arts battle arena

[fossil orchid]

Yes but they look completly different
i think the key is how you define "different/exclusive"

Because for example if you have to different footballs, they are different but they are still balls yk?

[kind comet]

What can you do in the arena?

[static dome]

use the dark arts

[split wave]

use any unforgivable at any point

[fossil orchid]

yes and get some exp

[kind comet]

So you can fight there whenever you want? No part of the story?

[fossil orchid]

Yes

[split wave]

that's only true from a certain point of view, you don't get xp by killing enemies

[fossil orchid]

im sure you do, im currently starting HL so i can test it in a few

[split wave]

you get xp by finishing objectives in the guide book, that's why getting lvl 40 actually gets really tedious later

[hexed rain]

I totally felt for Sebastian; he's a tragic figure. They could have done more with it but were clearly holding back on the depth of his evil out of respect for younger players. I totally respect that and they did it well. Same for the ending where there was some serious loss with Fig but they balanced it with some hope for the future. I found that ride to be quite the roller coaster.

[fossil orchid]

btw. do you keep your talents/traits in that arena?

[static dome]

solomons death and sebastians story was tragic af
i feel bad for fig too, both are really sad stories

[static dome]

yes

[split wave]

in other words: killing enemies only gives you xp as long as you need to kill them for the guide book

[static dome]

i need exp for level 34 and its so close and i need so much more

[fossil orchid]

yes you are right, killing them alone doesnt give exp

[hexed rain]

Agreed - what made it more powerful for me was that the evil people genuinely felt they were the good guys.

[static dome]

evil people eg sebastian?
or ranrok?

[split wave]

grind merlin trials and ancient magic thingies on the map, they give you other niceties in addition to xp

[static dome]

oh btw you still earn exp from enemies once you completed the field guide

[split wave]

no you don't

[static dome]

i am literally earning exp from spiders and i completed the challenge

[split wave]

then you're doing some other challenge like dueling feats

[hexed rain]

Ranrok was definitely evil but he was doing what he thought was best for his people.

[static dome]

yeah i guess

[static dome]

maybe

[hexed rain]

Yeah, even as I read that again, I'm thinking he was pretty selfish and and self consumed, too...

[static dome]

he was so i don't sympathize for him

[woven yoke]

I’ve finally 100% the game after about 50 hours. Hell yeah

[split wave]

question is if that started before or after he found the first repository - as in sure he wasn't a likable guy, but the repository could have increased his evilness, as it's an amalgamation of all the bad feelings of people

[split wave]

100% achievements, or also 100% map?

[fossil orchid]

i will never be able to get 100% on my Char xd

[woven yoke]

Everything. Collectibles. Achievements, items, missions. The lot. @split wave

And yes I’ve completed the game 4 times once on each house

[split wave]

all of that doesn't require 100% map, that's why I'm asking

[woven yoke]

Well I’ve done the map aswell

Exploration 100%. Map 100%

[split wave]

nice

[static dome]

how do you get the true ending

[woven yoke]

That depends on your choices at the end if you want to open the repository or not @static dome

[fossil orchid]

There is no True Ending?

[dusk garnet]

On the map for e.g. spiders lair, do I need to goto everyone? is there loot at them? or jut monsters?

[split wave]

I don't know why people call it that, it's just getting level 34 for the last main quest

[static dome]

i picked 'i want to keep it concealed)

[woven yoke]

Yeah that was my first choice

[static dome]

oh i literally just did that

[split wave]

it's just monster spawners for the finishing touches achievement

[dusk garnet]

ta

[split wave]

then you've won the house cup, which seemingly people consider the "true ending"

[static dome]

oh yeah okay

i just finished the whole game

is there anything at the end of the credits?

[fossil orchid]

depends on what quest you finished

because there is also the house trophy quest

[static dome]

just did that

[fossil orchid]

Then not as far as i know

[dusk garnet]

As you look at the map to the right of hogwarts there is a treasure vault where the floor shunts you thru the wall and back I cant figure out a way to solve it?

[woven yoke]

Use arresto momentum on the floor

[dusk garnet]

hmm thought i had tried every spell , ok ill check

[split wave]

the knowledge that you just wasted about 30-60 minutes watching names scroll by

[woven yoke]

Make sure to aim your wand at the floor. It doesn’t lock on @dusk garnet

[static dome]

i spend like 5 mins before i got bored

[split wave]

I did as I hoped there's something cool, and was very much disappointed

[woven yoke]

Time for my second speedrun attempt

Sub 8 hours is the goal

[verbal jay]

Will the game on PC say 99% on Side Missions until we're able to do the Mind Your Own Business PS exclusive quest? Or am I missing another one???

[late kiln]

Mind your own business isnt needed for the completion so youre missing 1

[late kiln]

Have you done ‘well well well’?

[verbal jay]

Yeah, long long ago.

[late kiln]

Hmm how about the bells and the hippogriff statue?

[verbal jay]

I think what I might be missing is the final time Sebastian summons you to talk to him in the Undercroft. But I feel like he has already done that once? I didn't get the shadow trophy/achievement though.

[verbal jay]

Yes yes. I feel like I've done every single one I can find on a list of them all.

Perhaps I just need to wait it out, and see if I get the call to go to Sebastian

[late kiln]

Shadow of friendship?

[verbal jay]

Exactly.

I don't have it, never seen it I think. But I did do the relic thing, and I did go to the Undercroft after. So now what?

How long do I have to wait? Is it random?

[late kiln]

You already done with the main quest: the final repository?

[verbal jay]

No

[late kiln]

It’s relic then fate then friendship

[verbal jay]

The only quest I have now is Final Repository, The part where I go fight Ranrok

[late kiln]

Fate is the one you go to undercroft to talk to ominis i think

[verbal jay]

Already done.

[late kiln]

Then yeah go ahead and do final repository then friendship and onai and poppy’s other quest will unlock

[verbal jay]

Onai is done too. Poppy's done too.

[late kiln]

Hmm thats weird hmm i finished onai and poppy after ranrok

[verbal jay]

Rookwood is dead, I went to see Onai at the hospital wing. I found the snidgets, then talked to Poppy at the great hall. I don't imagine there's more to do with them.

[verbal jay]

From my understanding you don't even need to do those quests so close to the end.
EDIT: Wait that's wrong. I guess. Since side quests unlock after main quests.

[drifting lagoon]

Did the achievement unlock?

[late kiln]

Yeah there’s an onai and poppy achievement

[drifting lagoon]

Also a Sebastian one uwu

[verbal jay]

Yeah, I got them both.

[late kiln]

Uwu

[verbal jay]

But not Sebastian's.

Btw, I've found that sometimes owls from characters come at random times. Sometimes you can just wait and it just happens.

[late kiln]

Just do the final repository

[drifting lagoon]

Seems like you know the answer but are waiting for confirmation lmao

[verbal jay]

Okay. Will I have time to go find the other conjurations after too?

[late kiln]

Yup

[verbal jay]

What is teven the point of those rotating platforms where you gotta do incendio on them??

[drifting lagoon]

It’s a landing platform, land on it with a broom

It’ll light up automatically

[verbal jay]

Oh.

[late kiln]

Either land on them or light them

[verbal jay]

But what does doing them all... do?

[drifting lagoon]

It’s a challenge, you get cosmetics

[late kiln]

Nothing lmao

Oh yeah the challenge cosmetic haha

[verbal jay]

Huh ok

[late kiln]

If youre aiming for the ‘collectors edition’ achievement?

[kind comet]

Let me get this clear. There is a main story and free play, I know. But can you do freeplay before done with the main story? Is it possible to like pause your classes (the main story)?

[split wave]

landing platforms are just field guide iirc

[late kiln]

Yup

[kind comet]

Do you need to interact with new things to continue the main story?

[drifting lagoon]

They’re like Merlin trial thingies but you get cosmetics

[split wave]

if you don't continue the main story to a certain percentage free play isn't much fun as you're missing gameplay features

[split wave]

yes, THROUGH the field guide

[drifting lagoon]

Yeah but if you haven’t got all the spells, you can’t do everything

[kind comet]

Yeah I know, but I was wondering if there was a time limit on something

[split wave]

after that's done you don't need them if you don't go for the merlin trial achievement

[kind comet]

Thanks!

[drifting lagoon]

Most things are field guide related, otherwise you wouldn’t have any need for it

[split wave]

of course, as completing the field guide is the only way to get xp

[late kiln]

Now doing a hufflepuff gameplay. It doesn’t get any more cozy than Azkaban

[drifting lagoon]

I wanna visit Azkaban so bad but just for a one time quest thing? Idk

You can’t even revisit it, I’ve heard

[late kiln]

Yeah one time ☹️

[unkempt delta]

Lol imagine if u could revisit it and see Sebastian there

[late kiln]

Lmao

[split wave]

it's also very underwhelming, it's that one corridor from the promo art

[drifting lagoon]

Are you kidding? ;w;

[late kiln]

Sucks that when doing unforgivable in front of the officer, nothing happens 😂

[drifting lagoon]

Is the patronus worth seeing or like

[late kiln]

What??

[drifting lagoon]

Like the ending of the game when you choose the “bad” option and it’s like “… cool ANYWAY uhm”

[late kiln]

Yeah the bad option is so weird

[split wave]

it's a cute bunny

[late kiln]

I wanna go full ranrok 2.0 or something like that

[drifting lagoon]

O-oh, I wanted to see my rag doll cat one ;w;

[drifting lagoon]

Isadora 2.0 omg I’d zombiefy anyone

[fossil orchid]

Dont forget the part where you use imperio if they dont want to give all emotions :^)

[split wave]

you also see it for full 2-3 seconds!

[late kiln]

2-3 seconds

[drifting lagoon]

Being a hufflepuff for like 40 hours to see 2-3 seconds of cuteness is like not for me

[split wave]

if you only do main quests you're there in about 2 hours at most

[late kiln]

Yeah i just want to see that

Speedrun it is

[drifting lagoon]

…now I’m debating again ;w;

[glass jackal]

||You can't IMAGINE how inconvenient travel was before I invented floo powder!||

[fossil orchid]

oof

[split wave]

[late kiln]

||I’ve always said that travel broadens the mind||

[glass jackal]

||What are you up to now?||

[split wave]

Did you know that it feels like all roads lead to Hogsmeade?

[late kiln]

||Deek thinks you should be proud of all the killings you’ve made||

[drifting lagoon]

Now that’s a supportable quote

[late kiln]

The lines in this game is annoying and laughable at the same time

[glass jackal]

no they're just annoying

[hexed herald]

I only need 5 moons to win the trophy.

[late kiln]

Go ahead find the moons

[split wave]

Mr Moon would be proud

[static dome]

||Deek thinks you should be proud of all the potions you've brewed||

[glass jackal]

finding the moons in hogwarts<<<<

[hexed herald]

Demiguise dread 28/33 progress.

[split wave]

Deek thinks you should be proud of all the beasts you've poached rescued.

[drifting lagoon]

The moment I started looking for those statues, I never found one within 5-10 minutes

[late kiln]

LMFAOOOOO

[vast hollow]

Mine now demiguise

[hexed herald]

Its only bad if the ones you sold to make room are sold to poachers on the side.

[drifting lagoon]

Who else would make fabulous fur coats? 🙂

[late kiln]

I always imagine how sad the beast parents when i take away their offspring lol

[dusk garnet]

What is the upper limit for health and def/off?
Im currently 3445/412/431?

[late kiln]

4000 hp and idk bout def and offence

[dusk garnet]

Ok so not far off thx

[drifting lagoon]

Seeing them play with the toys is worth it tho

[late kiln]

Ohhh i havent seen them do so

[drifting lagoon]

Damn you haven’t lived life to the fullest

[late kiln]

Newt wouldnt be so proud

[split wave]

toy need to conjure and use the toy box

[late kiln]

Yeah i already have one but never used it for some reason

[drifting lagoon]

The diricawls are the cutest uwu

[late kiln]

Are the diricawls in the movie?

I forgot but i know nifflers is in fantastic 1 i think

[drifting lagoon]

I don’t think they are but it’s been a while since I saw that franchise

[late kiln]

First time seeing the niffler in the movie was meh but after playing the game and searching for some movie screenshots earlier were amazing lol

[fossil orchid]

||Deek things you should be proud of all the horcruxes you've made||

[late kiln]

Now i wanna rewatch the movie!

[split wave]

Niffler > all.

[fossil orchid]

i found a shiny niffler yesterday

[late kiln]

Tbf i wanted to take the horcruxes out of that trial

[late kiln]

I got em all shiny except unicorn, therstal and graphorn

[fossil orchid]

im not actually shiny hunting tho, i dont care about the beasts until im Level 40

[late kiln]

Oh wait im wrong to call them horcruxes lol

[split wave]

I actually didn't do much poaching, don't even see a difference in texture, of which there are multiple anyway, only the + next to the name, so it was underwhelming

[late kiln]

The elder wand and cloak thingies

[drifting lagoon]

I was about to ask the difference but I guess just the name ;w;

[split wave]

deathly hallows

[late kiln]

Yeah deathly hallows thanks

[drifting lagoon]

I thought I missed something lmao

[late kiln]

Tbh im not that 100% knowledgable about the harry’s world but i’ve seen all of the movie

[drifting lagoon]

So you haven’t read the books?

[late kiln]

The shiny’s are all mostly white

I just thought the nifflers shiny is gold for a change

[drifting lagoon]

That’s … a choice

[split wave]

I've got a lot which aren't

[late kiln]

No lol but i know someone irl who does hardcore

[drifting lagoon]

I guess it’s never too late to read them ;w;

[late kiln]

Uwu

[split wave]

I've watched too much Stargate SG 1, so whenever the deathly hallows come up I think of "Hallowed are the Ori"... don't know if anyone here watched that

[late kiln]

Hmm i dont know what stargate is

Im imagining it as like star wars? Lmao

[drifting lagoon]

Omg you did not just say that lmao

[split wave]

[late kiln]

💀

I should be sorted to hufflepuff and be imprisoned at azkaban? Im sorry

[split wave]

early 2000s, they find a round gate which can transport people to gates on other planets

[drifting lagoon]

I mean you haven’t read the books so I already thought the worst of you

[split wave]

it's a very good show, apart from 2 or 3 episodes in the first season

[late kiln]

I dont really like reading (which i must) but i’ve seen like a ton of movies/series

[drifting lagoon]

Audible reads it to you uwu

[late kiln]

Okay i’ll check it out

Hmm i actually havent tried audio books. Maybe i’ll try to read cursed child since i’ve already seen the movies from philosopher to deathly hallows (yeah i know theres alot of contexts in the books but already know whats gonna happen and gets dissuaded by that)

[split wave]

I've only read the books once, years ago, and none from any expanded stuff which came later

[zenith birch]

anyone know if you get anything for setting all the best race times??

[late kiln]

There are expanded edition? 😳

[late kiln]

Ruby wiel who tf is that anyway

[split wave]

I meant stuff which came later

[drifting lagoon]

You mean like on the wizard img world website or like the pottermore thing?

[split wave]

ya, fantastical beasts etc

[drifting lagoon]

Maybe I’m just a fanatic

[split wave]

as I've unlocked everything without doing so I'd say no

[drifting lagoon]

I thought it was required to get the next upgrade ;_;

[late kiln]

So you bested ruby?

[split wave]

no you only need to beat her time afterwards there are harder ones

[late kiln]

I only got to top 2 always thats it

[drifting lagoon]

Who dat

[zenith birch]

I meant like an achievement or something guess i'll find out

[drifting lagoon]

Oh I thought they meant the slytherin girl

[late kiln]

The always top 1 in the broom races

[delicate arch]

Do I need to keep my mounts in my inventory (nab-sack)?

[drifting lagoon]

No

[delicate arch]

TY

[late kiln]

If you wanna use them

[drifting lagoon]

My mounts and pets are in the room of requirement and I can still use them

[late kiln]

Holdup you can do that?

I thought they needed to be in my bag before i can use them as mounts

[glass jackal]

nope u can put them in vivarium

[drifting lagoon]

I usually use the broom anyway but my mounts aren’t like blocked out so

[late kiln]

So like the bag is a wormhole to the vivarium lol

[drifting lagoon]

Gotta love magic

[median turtle]

Guys, I have a question…
In the gear menu there are 4 like options for flying mounts. What is the last one tho?

[drifting lagoon]

You have a broom, hippo and a graphorn

[late kiln]

I think he meant by the flying only mounts

[drifting lagoon]

O-oh

[late kiln]

Like highwing, caligo, then therstal?

[drifting lagoon]

Yeah idk about the 4th one if there is one

[late kiln]

I think theyre only available slots thats it. You can maybe even store 4 hippogriffs idk OR maybe dlc

[median turtle]

Yes that’s what I meant

[drifting lagoon]

Sorry for the possible spoiler lmao

[median turtle]

Hmmm….
Before I was wondering if it is a Unicorn, but it wasn’t. So probably dlc then

[alpine thistle]

Can someone help? I think it’s a bug, I’m in one of Charles rookwood trials but one of the guys with the big swords is invisible and invincible and it’s only his sword flying around and hitting me idk what to do - lmk if I need to send a video

[median turtle]

Go inside the portal

[drifting lagoon]

You need to walk through the arc

[late kiln]

But isnt this a spoiler channel? Hehe

[drifting lagoon]

I mean you said it, not me so like uwu

[alpine thistle]

Is he supposed to be invisible?

[median turtle]

Yes

[drifting lagoon]

Yeah bc he’s in the other dimension

[split wave]

no

[alpine thistle]

Oh ok Ty 🙂 makes sense 🙂

[lean rivet]

Lol, I finally got access to the Merlin cloak.

[late kiln]

Nice

[drifting lagoon]

I found it weird to equip anything other than a school uniform but I think that’s just me ;w;

Even the dark arts thingies I’ve never used except to just look at it in the menu

[lean rivet]

I make use of the transmog quite often.

[alpine thistle]

Now something else weird happening - pillar is teleporting from ground to top of room

[median turtle]

You know what I like the most in this game? Cloth physics 😂

[alpine thistle]

Is that supposed to happen to or nah

I got a vid of it too if someone need it

[drifting lagoon]

Sebastian’s robe in one of his quests is just perfect

[feral locust]

Everyone posting the Fig spoilers on Facebook and NOBODY mentioned how hard the first cutscenes go when George gets chomped by a dragon and the thestrals appear

That was SPICY

[drifting lagoon]

When I saw that, it didn’t register as a death for me lmao

I was like oh he got swallowed, love that

[feral locust]

Yeah but remember thestrals can only be seen if you've watched someone die 🥶

[drifting lagoon]

Yeah exactly so I was like why how when where what happened

But then I figured it out

[feral locust]

Too cold for the first 5 min of the game

Then Fig is like "oh bro let's go explore these ruins" like PROFESSOR YOU AREN'T TRAUMATIZED AT ALL?? OL BOY IS DECEASED.

[drifting lagoon]

Literally like he did not even blink, like Wendy Williams like “oh she died? Awh, awh, anyway uhm”

[split wave]

seems to be quite the everyday occurrence, same as being maimed by plants

otherwise thestrals wouldn't be the go to option for transportation

[drifting lagoon]

Like using incendio, apparently it’s easy to hurt yourself lol

[late kiln]

Maybe because he’ll be in a portrait somewhere or be a ghost roaming in hogwarts soon so it’s fine 😅

[zenith birch]

anyone know if you need to breed a phoniex to get the "breed all animals" achivement? and IF so how do i catch a 2nd one??

[split wave]

no, no phoenix breeding

[zenith birch]

well i've breeded every other animal so idk why i dont have that achivement

[drifting lagoon]

Clearly not every other animal lmao

[zenith birch]

yes i've even bred the graphorn

[drifting lagoon]

But you don’t have the achievement

So idk if I believe you

[split wave]

Puffskein, Mooncalf, Niffler, Diricawl. Hippogriff, Jobberknoll, Unicorn, Fwooper, Thestral, Giant Purple Toad, Kneazle, and Graphorn

those 12

[drifting lagoon]

I bet you they forgot the unicorn

[split wave]

how can one forget the unicorn?

[drifting lagoon]

Literally uwu

[vital lichen]

Check all your offspring, if u don't have a particular one then breed it, I check and saw I was missing giant toad and got the achievement

Does anyone know a rough estimate on how long it takes to get to the map room from the start of the game?

[drifting lagoon]

I’d say like maybe halfway through the gameplay so idk

I did a lot of side quests before so I can’t really be that reliable

[worldly garnet]

Should I help ominous or Sebastian

[drifting lagoon]

What’s your moral compass saying

[hollow plover]

How do you breed the graphorn?

[worldly garnet]

That last curse spell looks nice

[drifting lagoon]

I think you’ll get it either way but best to save before making that choice lmao

I helped Sebastian but that’s just me

[worldly garnet]

Alright you right

[hollow plover]

Anyone know how to breed a graphorn

[static dome]

yes, capture two diff genders and go to the breeding pen

[lunar mulch]

still cant find this last balloon idk if its glitched out or what

which sucks cause so close to 100%

[zenith birch]

Id say roughly 5-8 hrs

[zenith birch]

you just keep going back until you catch a female

[hollow plover]

going back where mate ? @zenith birch

[zenith birch]

to the only place on the map you can catch a graphorn

[hollow plover]

south ?

[zenith birch]

if you havent got there in the story you probably wont be able to

its in like the furthest south-east part of the map

[hollow plover]

@zenith birch my bad never noticed it on the map lol

@zenith birch thought it was a one time thing like the pheonix

[simple cove]

Hello, I have a question: I completed 31/32 quests but one for me is missing. I cannot see it on the map or quests tab. In the owl post there is also nothing.... Is this a bug?

[terse ivy]

what level are you

[simple cove]

37

[terse ivy]

What is the last quest you did?

[simple cove]

I finished the daedalian keys

[terse ivy]

is 31/32 on mainquests or side/relationship? if it's the latter and you haven't finished the mainstory yet, it may be that

[simple cove]

nope definitely finished

I have everything done. Every single quest available in this game. I just want to complete the achievement in the challenges tab

https://prnt.sc/d9-lNeVxe9-K

[terse ivy]

hmm, you could try pulling up a full quest list and compare to your finished ones just to make sure there isn't some sneaky sidequest you may have missed somewhere. Otherwise idk, sorry

[simple cove]

Is there any quest that will only show up if I come near the place where it is?

[terse ivy]

I think so, like well well well iirc

but am not 100% on that

[simple cove]

is it really called "well well well" in the quests tab?

[terse ivy]

I think so, for me that was the last one I was missing because I couldn't find it

after googling I see that "well well well" and "Sacking selwyn" are the ones missing for most ppl

[simple cove]

Yes its the one missing for me. Thank you very much

[terse ivy]

ohh nice, glad to know you can finish it now. Goodluck!

[simple cove]

Finally, done with all quests haha. Thanks again!

[lunar mulch]

i hate having to youtube random pages cause theres a lack of sound ques

on some of them

down to 4 field pages left in the castle tho

[terse ivy]

Goodluck w that, don't forget that you can hover over sections of the castle to see what you've collected in that area, helped me w some collection chests I was missing

[lunar mulch]

i know still had to load up yt tho with lack of sound ques for some

like one basically on the ceiling in the astronomy wing in a random class room

i would of never seen it or thought to look up in there

confused tho says i got 4 left total but only 2 are showing when i zoom out

[split wave]

takes me about 2 hours, just doing my last run

[simple cove]

Another question haha. Is it possible to get all room of requirement conjurations in one playthrough?

[split wave]

yes

[plain island]

Any house recommendation after finishing all quests on Slytherin ?

[feral locust]

Hufflepuff

The jackdaw quest for that house is pretty sick

[plain island]

are there any big changes except different common room ?

[simple cove]

Are there also collection chests that are not in a hamlet, hogsmeade or hogwarts? Because I cant really believe this will add up in the end

[feral locust]

Everything is the same except that mission and the common room

[split wave]

butterflies, and bandit camps

[simple cove]

bandit camps dont drop room of requirement loot. Only stuff for the loom

[feral locust]

Like Felicia said bandit camps and butterflies, there's also the cairns

And the room of requirement vivarium has 12. 3 in the each room

[forest radish]

how do i leave this inferni dungeon

[feral locust]

Which one?

[plain island]

knowing how Sebastian's story ends, i'll try to change my decisions, we'll see if it makes any difference, i'll probably try Gryffindor now

[forest radish]

i have no idea

[plain island]

the one where you enter with Ominis ?

[simple cove]

The most impact would be if you chose not to learn the unforgivable spells - as far as i know at least

[forest radish]

i pulled some stuff with accio, and then 2 infernis came out of this room witha chest, and i opened the chest, and i cant go back the way i came cause it was a hole in the ceiling

[forest radish]

no it was in the forbidden forest

[plain island]

ye, i'll try that, combat is not too difficult to need unforgivable spells

[simple cove]

true but they are fun 😄

[feral locust]

Use Accio on the bones to create a stairway out

[forest radish]

ah

[feral locust]

If it's the one I'm thinking of

[simple cove]

ah that ancient magic thing?

[forest radish]

thank you

it was the bones one

[simple cove]

But i think I know which one you mean. i had the same issue at first

always good to use revelio 👁️

[forest radish]

i saw the yellow things i just didnt know if i put the bones on em they would make stairs

i swear to god if i protego when im supposed to dodge again i am going to stub my toe into a meat grinder

[feral locust]

Lol

[plain island]

Do you get different rewards for each house chest after collecting tokens ?

[kind comet]

How do I use the dark arts arena?

[forest radish]

whats the first dark art you can learn?

[plain island]

If you mean unforgivable spell, it's crucio

[forest radish]

yes

[kind comet]

?

[fossil orchid]

Its in the north of the forbidden forest

[kind comet]

Kk

[fossil orchid]

Some "Statue" Icon

[plain island]

Break 10 pots around the statue to access the arena

[tough panther]

i am in pain, horrible pain.

[forest radish]

where do i get lots of money fast

[plain island]

Sell beasts

[forest radish]

if i have not unlocked that

[oblique locust]

sell old gear

[sinful crater]

I liked how breaking pots was already at the start of the game , just to tell you can do that with the arenas , brilliant

[plain island]

Sell all gear except your best

[forest radish]

when do i unlock capturing beasts anyway

[plain island]

Have you met Deek yet ?

[forest radish]

yes

[plain island]

Shouldn't be long then

[forest radish]

im doing the fig map chamber quest rn

[plain island]

You'll get the quest to attend beast class, do it

[lunar mulch]

missing 2 field guides now in the bell tower then im finished

[oblique locust]

just keep playing the game, you don't need to purchase everything right away

[lunar mulch]

just not able to find them

[forest radish]

i need money so i can do mommy i mean professor garlicks assignment because i need the recipes and stuff

i worded that horribly

[plain island]

I suggest you save your money until you can buy best tomes since you can't sell lesser ones, later it's just gonna be a waste of money

You can probably find some YT videos where you can find location of all chests with eyes, they give 500 gold, you'll be rich very fast

[lunar mulch]

people saying they are bugged tho that true?

would explain me not finding them or if i did they didnt count

[forest radish]

why do doors hate opening for me

[forest radish]

i hunted like 5 of those in hogsmeade so i could buy stuff before

[plain island]

You got the quest for demiguise statues yet ?

[forest radish]

i dont even ahve alohomara or whatever yet

[plain island]

Ye, that's what i meant, finish that if you can, there's usually good loot in those rooms locked with strongest locks

[hollow plover]

@forest radish you can only grab them at at night quickshittytip

[glad rivet]

I noticed the PS5 achievement for using ancient magic on all types of enemy after completing the entire game... 🥲 Now I need to find a list of enemy types to check off

Oh no, the unique infamous foes count? That'll be an entire extra playthrough then ugh Oh nvm, it uses 34 that all spawn in postgame

[fresh swallow]

so im on my quest for preparing the last battle agains Rangok! But i wanna hit lv 40 first how to speed up leveling a little bit

before i finish the game i want to reach as much possible achievments!

[keen pond]

hi, which quests change seasons?

[surreal furnace]

the trials, no?

[glad rivet]

And the end of the game, back to spring

[keen pond]

so to have Alohomora i need to fast forward 3 trials and seasons? o_O

[zenith abyss]

You just need to be Level 14 and complete Percival Rackham’s Trial. You’ll then get the quest Caretaker’s Lunar Lament from Moon (for lvl 1 unlock)

[glad rivet]

And after that you can speed through to level 3 unlock if you're diligent about hunting down the moons.

[dusk wing]

When the game first came out it said 0.1% people got plat trophy
Now it’s 0.3% lol

[cyan estuary]

I have 139 conjurations out of 140 and its the "Stuffed Toy Dragon" that I'm missing. all of my map sections say I have all collection chests and I got all butterfly chests, for the life of me I can not find it. this conjuration is the last thing keeping me from the 'complete all collection' achievement

[glad rivet]

I remember getting that one

Check behind the arithmancy puzzle door in the grand staircase

[cyan estuary]

i will try, it says i have everything in hogwarts done but it may be there

also Thank You very much for the suggestion

[forest radish]

room of requirement is so fun

[surreal furnace]

How is this possible to miss 4 invocations but having done 100% of the map

[glad rivet]

No problem, I don't remember whether collections chests are randomized per save or not - if they're not, someone else reported getting it there

[zinc spear]

Make sure you have all 3 from each vivarium

[cyan estuary]

i did

[zinc spear]

I had all chests found in Hogwarts, Hogsmeade and main map but still had 4 missing when I finished. 3 were from a vivarium and the 4th was a butterfly 😁

[glad rivet]

I figured out last night that my vivarium rooms had chests lmao

[zinc spear]

I found them in the 1st 3 but I think I was too happy to finally have the Phoenix to search the 4th 🤣

[cyan estuary]

i swear i got all 3 from every vivarium and every butterfly unless im really blind and or dumb, i counted all 15 items from butterflies in my inventory so tht has to be done, i thought i did all arithmancy (number dice doors) but i could have missed one

wait is there 4 in the phoenix room?

[feral locust]

Nah there's only three in each

[surreal furnace]

There is 2 per vivarium, so, 8 total

[glad rivet]

I'm missing one single collection chest in the area south of hogwarts and I have been looking for 3 days and I'm out of ideas lol

[zinc spear]

No I’m only referring to the Phoenix as the 4th vivarium

[cyan estuary]

ohhhhh okay my bad

[feral locust]

You made sure you got all of the cairn chests? and there's a check mark on refer bandit camp?

[zinc spear]

There’s 3 per vivarium

[lunar mulch]

there a bug im getting unable to save now

and last save it shows is yesterday now

[cyan estuary]

is there an achievement for the cairn chests cus i got one for something to do with cairn and unless im blind all camps have checkmarka

[feral locust]

There's one for discovering all of them yeah

[forest radish]

so i finished beast class, when do i get to rescue animals?

[feral locust]

When you talk to deek

[cyan estuary]

ive discovered all cairn dungeons

[feral locust]

Okay there are still chests in them lol

I'm just saying to double check and make sure

[cyan estuary]

will it tell you how many in each one? like one out of 1 or 2 out of 2?

chests

[feral locust]

Yeah it'll tell you 1/2 or 1/1

Just hover over them

[cyan estuary]

ight thanks i'll double check cus if memory serves ive hovered over all and i have them all

[forest radish]

i can nly ask deek about the rooms ambiance

[cyan estuary]

he will talk about a nab-sack when youre ready to collect beasts

do professor Weasly and Deek quest lines

[forest radish]

ah i need to do the alohomora and urtkot quest

[surreal furnace]

Thanks, seems like I miss 1 in the 3 first. Still missing one tho, and the world is big

[glad rivet]

It might be after urtkot, do that

[lunar mulch]

guess im stuck

cant play if the game wont save

might start a 2nd play through see if it will save

[cyan estuary]

im assuming you have tried but it wont even create a new save slot?

[lunar mulch]

nope says unable to complete save

[cyan estuary]

if you fast travel it will auto save then restart your game

[lunar mulch]

i have

its not auto saving either

[cyan estuary]

and when you go to exit through settings it should tell you how long since you last saved if it only a seconds to minutes then id restart\

i dont know how to fix that so i can only suggest what i think will work

[lunar mulch]

nope says last save was yesterday

bit annoying cause i spent today basically almost finishing the game

[red vine]

How can we check what beasts we have in the vivarium?

[distant heath]

Hello i have a question. I want to buy the game. And i need some help from someone who played it (multiple storylines/houses)

Is there someone here who played multiple houses?

[cyan estuary]

@red vine the way i know how to check, you have to be in the vivarium, i havent found another other than collections

but that doesnt tell you the gender or how many you have only which beasts types you have found

[red vine]

Collections doesn't say whether you have it in vivarium or not though right?

[forest radish]

holy alohomora is confusing

[glad rivet]

You can only check while you're in the vivarium. If you're like me, and too space-cased to remember the sex of the animal you left in there while out hunting for its mate, bring it with you in your inventory as you can check from there

[zenith abyss]

What’s your question?

[cyan estuary]

no it doesn't tell you what you have in there, if you go into each vivarium and hit right bumper or what ever the keyboard equivalent is then it will show you

[red vine]

Do shinies do anything special? Aside from being shiny?

[distant heath]

I want to know if the game/story is like, completely different depending on what house you choose. My friends all chose slitherin and im doubting for choosing gryffondor. But they say the slitherin story is super interesting so now i dont know what to do.

[forest radish]

bro how does alohomora work

[distant heath]

Will my game be different from theirs? Or just some small details?

[verbal jay]

I’m disappointed that the game seems to perpetuate the usage of a priori incantatem-like effect even when wands don’t share the same core from the same specimen. The movie makers said that it was actually spells clashing every time it happened after that first proper priori incantatem scene. But while it looks epic and awesome, it does feel lazy that they don’t follow the lore here. There’s got to be other ways to show that effect than making it look 95% identical to the normal priori incantatem effect.

[zenith abyss]

The introduction to the houses each has a different cutscene.

The quest that leads you to the main story plot differs per house.

The rest is all the same more or less.

Sebastian’s quest is not limited to Slytherin house.

[verbal jay]

We also know what happens in the game is NOT priori incantatem since there’s no dome of magical flames surrounding the two of you and no ghost-like echoes of dead people appearing.

[plain island]

rotate red gear until you hear a click sound, when you hear it, move it very slowly until red mechanism inside is moving, same thing with green gear, move it until green mechanism on the right is moving

[verbal jay]

This is the same way we can identify every time wands “connected” in the movies after GOF as not being priori incantatem either, but rather just spells clashing like Dragon Ball ki beams clashing.

[forest radish]

alohomora is easy bro

im just dumb

[verbal jay]

It is easy but it is still annoying to me that it is not instant. Or at least it should be with every lock below level 3.

[forest radish]

all you do is move it around until you see the gear move slightly and then just move it in a smaller and smaller area

[verbal jay]

Maybe we’re meant to think the actual lockpicking is an instant but we see it in slow motion and it DOES happen super fast for anyone else looking.

[plain island]

level 1 lock shouldn't be the same difficulty to lockpick as highest level lock, doesn't make any sense

[zenith abyss]

Yah I agree. After doing so many in a row I just turned down the difficulty when doing mass unlocking so it Auto Unlocks LOL

[surreal furnace]

The last one was a butterfly missed North of Feldcroft area

[verbal jay]

Now that I think about it, it also goes directly against canon that Avada Kedavra would clash with any spell, as in canon it is stated directly that the Killing Curse - and I believe every other unforgivable curse - cannot be blocked by any magical spell, only by an object shielding you. So it would actually just pass through whatever spell you cast on it and kill you anyway!

[hexed herald]

Yep

[keen yoke]

Alohamora IS so annoying

[forest radish]

bro stealth is so hard

[verbal jay]

So… it really shouldn’t be in the game or movies, despite looking as cool as it does. Maybe if they used another spell than the killing curse for those scenes I’d accept it, though.

[plain island]

without talents, yeah, it's a joke with

[forest radish]

BROOOOOO

WHERE DID PROFESSOR GARLICK EVEN COME FROM?

[potent leaf]

[hexed herald]

London thames, muggleborn

Yeah i talk to the teachers

[forest radish]

what are those statues that have like the person holding like a moon and a wnad pointing at it

[zenith abyss]

Talk to her after you learn spells and she talks about her past. She’s muggle born

[hexed herald]

Do they have a feather symbol, cast leviosa on it

[forest radish]

thats not what i ment lmao, i got caught by her doing the alohomora quest

[verbal jay]

It is shows in the seventh book that canonically spells that collide/clash, rather than “connect” in a power struggle one or both will be ricocheted back and might hit the caster(s). That’s honestly how they should have done it in this game too.

[zenith abyss]

Ohhhhh Lol I gotcha. I know what quest ur doing. Have fun

[hexed herald]

I got caught when not being a slytherin. So yeah

[forest radish]

what is the final legendary piece

[verbal jay]

It might also be possible that Rookwood and whoever else I ur happens with just so happens to have a core from the exact same specimen of the same animal.

[zenith abyss]

Tbh I think they just did that fight to get epic feels and didn’t really consider the indepth lore related to it

[hexed herald]

No, because they are movie geeks not book geeks and did not know or understand prior incantatum

[forest radish]

bro where are these 2 balloons over hogsmeade station

[hexed herald]

Look in the trees

[verbal jay]

I know. But I dislike that they did it. In the movies AND games.

It’s a giant plot hole and inconsistent

[forest radish]

what traits are good

[feral locust]

The ones that apply to whatever build you're trying to use

[alpine thistle]

It just became winter time, when do I unlock the missions to get the other 2 unforgivable curses?

[feral locust]

Gotta progress the story

Each time I got one I progressed the story by one

[coarse sapphire]

I'm not getting the owl for my second broom upgrade and I'm frustrated.

[alpine thistle]

Same!

[coarse sapphire]

I completed the In The Shadow Of The Mine quest like I was supposed to and nothing.

[forest radish]

BRO SUMMONERS COURT IS SO DUMB

[feral locust]

Nah it's the best lol

[forest radish]

bro the trait isnt even WORKINGGG

[zenith abyss]

I enjoyed throwing off their ball

[fickle pelican]

Anyone got tips to defeat victor rookwood

[feral locust]

Yeah I made the teacher lose all of his points

[shrewd anvil]

Avada kedavra is petty good ive heard

[feral locust]

I used cruio and imperio on him

[fickle pelican]

i havent done the quest yet

[fickle pelican]

did u have a ton of heals or no

[shrewd anvil]

I always had like 10-15+ heals or so for those kind of fights

[feral locust]

I think I had max heals but I didn't use them until I got to ranrok

[fickle pelican]

Dang

[coarse sapphire]

I'm always fully stocked on potions because I almost never use them. 😅

[fickle pelican]

I used all my heals, I might abandon the quest and then go make more potions

[feral locust]

Yeah I was at too high of a level by the time I fought him

[zenith abyss]

Samee. Those 100 points higher level boxes was fun, he actually knocked one of mine off it too. He was playing fr fr

[forest radish]

bro what is this puzzle, theres just a levioso sign on the ground and a stone wall/door?

[fickle pelican]

Alright I abandoned the quest, imma make more potions and then try again

[fickle pelican]

Dm me a picture if u can

[feral locust]

Move the boulder to it and use levioso to levitate it and open the door

I'm clearly getting tired lol

[glad rivet]

Does the Slytherin quest have something to do with a parselmouth minigame?

[potent leaf]

No

[glad rivet]

My husband found something in the settings about it, but we both finished the game and never came across it

[potent leaf]

Ominis speaks parsel once but that’s about it

[feral locust]

There's somewhat of a mini game when looking for the scriptorium but, I don't think it's in the settings

[small needle]

iff.. i need help in a part of the game, can i ask here? lol

[glad rivet]

Yep! Just ask

[small needle]

sweet! i think i'm stuck? i can't tell if i encountered a bug, or what.

i'm down in the caves doing jackdaw's quest. so, i've defeated the sentinels and it's asking me to investigate ancient magic.

i have watched playthroughs about what to do next because i didn't see anything to interact with. that veil is supposed to drop, and that spire is supposed to turn into an arch as soon as i defeat them?

[feral locust]

Have you collected the pages already?

[small needle]

from his body?

[feral locust]

Yeah

[glad rivet]

Should be an ancient magic spot on the floor

[small needle]

yeah, collecting the pages triggers that fight.

[feral locust]

Just run up to the bluish wall where the three large sentinels were standing and wait a moment

[small needle]

so far standing where they were isn't doing anything, and theree isn't anything on the floor that i see

[zenith abyss]

If youre not seeing the whips of ancient magic where the sentinels were it might be bugging out

[feral locust]

Might have to restart to a checkpoint

[small needle]

yeah i've redone that fight 5 times lol :c

opened and closed the game multiple times too.

[feral locust]

Would you mind sending a screenshot I guess in DMs

[small needle]

yeah let me run to the end of the room again

[feral locust]

Okay

[wet dew]

I want more of this game - 100% field guide - yes I will replay with different house

[small needle]

i am just hoping to get out of this room, hah. U_U

i'm going to try to load from a previous auto save or something, before i came into this room. hoping that helps because i would be upset if i can't progress out of here lol.

seems like completely leaving the room and restarting that entire encounter worked.

[zenith abyss]

Glad you sorted it out!

[upbeat plank]

The haunted shop quest is actually kinda scary I'm surprised.
MC should've known something was fishy when you only have to pay around 1k galleons lol

[forest saffron]

Ok that was kinda silly, the ball was not easy to find

[ornate orchid]

brojossss can someone explain the level 1 lock and how i can get to open them ? thx in advance

[zenith abyss]

Right! I really enjoyed that quest.

[small needle]

oh, me too! although i was getting some mad combo practice redoing that fight over and over 😂

[upbeat plank]

You need to unlock the demiguise moons quests to get the unlocking charm

[forest nova]

where do i find more phoenixes?

[fickle pelican]

There is only the one

[forest nova]

wait, so how many beasts are in the game?

[fickle pelican]

Idk tbh

[forest nova]

because theres an achievement for breading 12 breeds

[fickle pelican]

All I know is I was told there is only 1 Phoenix

There is a lot of dens and other animals

[forest saffron]

Ok I want to do this in one shot because I can't believe Imelda spoke to me like that 😒 How do I beat her?

[forest nova]

oh wait i didnt breed the mooncalves also

[fickle pelican]

Like the graphorn

[forest saffron]

She has the nerve to say Im not competition because Im not Slytherin! The spoiled brat

[feral locust]

You have breed all 13. The phoenix isn't included

[forest nova]

ah

and where are the weird bird things that you get the long feathers from

[feral locust]

Fwoopers?

[forest nova]

they are in cages in poacher camps but they always manage to fly away before i get them and was wondering if there are places they are usually

[forest nova]

im not playing in english so i have no idea

[feral locust]

Lol are they pink and yellow?

[forest nova]

long round birds

[zenith abyss]

There are a handful of various beast dens you’ll eventually find

[feral locust]

Yeah fwoopers lol

The others are jobberknolls

[forest nova]

and i have one more question for now
i am going around and killing bosses
i have figured out some are linked to quests and dont show up on the map
but there is one near hogwarts and i cant see it on the map

where is it and is it another fckn troll

[feral locust]

Uhh I don't think any of them are linked to quests but I can send you a link to all of them

https://youtu.be/OA6IzOBRP74

[forest nova]

there is a spider that you can only fight after taking on a quest from a shopkeeper

ive been to the place a lot of times and only could fight it after taking the qyest

[feral locust]

Ohhh yeah but I don't think that's an infamous

[forest nova]

it is

[feral locust]

Oh okay lol

[forest nova]

because it had a big health bar and it counted to the challenge

[feral locust]

There's a two wolves in a cave, did you find them?

[forest nova]

i have

a white one and the omen of death

[feral locust]

Yesh

I'd just follow the YouTube video I sent

[forest nova]

i think i know what the issue with the foe is

it didnt show up on the map because the tracker is broken

i already beat it

[feral locust]

So you have all of them?

[glad rivet]

without spoilers, you will get one more that is breedable

[forest nova]

only those that are visible on the map

[forest saffron]

I know its easy but Im so happy I beat Imelda

[red finch]

Some you can only fight during companion quests or main quests as the areas you go to are only unlocked during said quests

[forest nova]

its the spoiler channel and i beat main story, do you mean the horn one?

[feral locust]

Ah okay. I kinda just ran through everything so I didn't know they were tied to the challenge lol

[glad rivet]

yes, you can breed graphorns. if you go back to where you fought the original lord of the shore, there's a female there you can defeat and capture

[forest nova]

u bread him already

[glad rivet]

breed, unless you're deep frying him. past tense is bred

[feral locust]

Lmao

[forest nova]

i am missing a mooncalf and a fwooper

[glad rivet]

Those are easy enough to get, just find their dens, capture one of each sex, and get to it

[red finch]

Sometimes it’s a male Graphorn

Best bet is to just catch, it, leave and wait for a few days then go back and hope it spawns a female

[willow rain]

wtf
you can actually burn ferdinand

[forest nova]

i love bread 🍞

[upbeat plank]

The haunted shop quest might be a lil too creepy for me lol.
I keep getting lost in rooms with the lantern doors and that annoying asf ghost keeps throwing furniture at my character

[potent leaf]

And the babies are so cutedee

[forest nova]

i cant find any fwooper dens tho
thats a bit of an issue

[feral locust]

That's unfortunate. Is that the playstation quest?

[glad rivet]

the babies are huge lmao but yes, really cute. Whoever did the animations for beasts in this game put in a real labor of love. The way graphorns roll over and shake their leg when brushed, chefs kiss

[upbeat plank]

Yes

[potent leaf]

There’s one near feldcroft

[willow rain]

you can burn ferdinand the portrait :/ that's an option in the quest

[red finch]

Oh my god I nearly died at my shiny baby Thestral

Looks like a little ghost, I love him

[zenith abyss]

Those mannequins 😳

[forest nova]

thanks, ill check it out

[potent leaf]

Such cutie pies

[glad rivet]

Look around in south of hogwarts castle and feldcroft regions, while revelioing the heck out of it on your broomstick. You should find a den

[forest nova]

i only wanted to threaten him but i actually took him to the hogs head lmao

[willow rain]

what is your favourite baby?

[upbeat plank]

And the occasional footsteps you can hear.
And the pile of skeletons

[potent leaf]

I love it when they’re playing

[forest nova]

thx

[red finch]

I’m dedicating my swamp vivarium entirely to a herd of Thestrals.

And a few baby thestrals

I love those spooky horses

[willow rain]

i accidently placed him there as well lol

[glad rivet]

There's one just NW of rookwood castle

[forest nova]

baby unicorns are gold

[potent leaf]

Probably Graphorn. Idk there is just something rlly cute about it. Second would probably be thestral love these little spooks

[zenith abyss]

Yes it’s really well done! Reminded me of Control (another game) where things shift and move and there’s creepy stuff everywhere

[potent leaf]

As you should they’re awesome

[upbeat plank]

All I know if I was MC I would've taken the lady who sold us the shop to court the moment I got out lol

[forest nova]

how bad of a person i must be to get the spilled milk achievement by accident

[potent leaf]

The shiny grown up one is too

[willow rain]

i haven't catched a second graphorn yet

[red finch]

Lol I just casually said I’d put him up at the Hogs Head and followed through with my suggestion.

[feral locust]

You're bad lol

[glad rivet]

I'm at 3/10 by accident. FLIP THE COWS

[feral locust]

Fiendish even

[potent leaf]

FLIP EMMMM

[feral locust]

I was crying when I was flipping the cow over and over

[zenith abyss]

Flipping cows and accidentally attack casting on my pets I always feel bad

[potent leaf]

I think it’s fun

[forest nova]

i mean i did it with a testral for fun but then i read the achievenent but still lmao

[red finch]

You can just flippendo the sane cow.

Get the achievement and then never agains lol

[feral locust]

It kept getting up to move and I did it again

[forest nova]

i am bullying cats in hogwarts

[glad rivet]

OH MY GOD yes I feel terrible, and it's so easy to do on ps5 because of the hair trigger sensitivity on R2. "come here niffler I'll brush you WHAM"

[upbeat plank]

Holy heck I just got a spider jumpscare from the haunted shop quest.
That actually got me😭

[feral locust]

I'm starting to feel envious lol

[glad rivet]

No, I know, I mean I got 3/10 by randomly flipping cows I came across during regular gameplay lol

[zenith abyss]

THIS. I’m just trying to brush my babies and then oops Diffindo slashes them

[feral locust]

I have a playstation but I bought the game for Xbox lol

[glad rivet]

That dungeon is 1) spookier than expected and 2) way longer than required lmao

[upbeat plank]

Ikr.
It's way too long this feels awful lmao.
Also I think it's weird that it's unlocked during the winter season, wouldn't Halloween have made more sense?

[forest nova]

anyone else disappointed by felix felicis?

[zenith abyss]

I wish it was earlier cuz i would have loved the extra cash sell early on

[feral locust]

No lol

[forest nova]

it couldve been something else

[upbeat plank]

I def gonna start on my other characters right now just to avoid finishing the quest lol
It's too late to feel this creeped out I'll just play in the morning

[honest karma]

There are times I wonder about the choices made

"But professor what if I get in trouble for wandering around the faculty tower after curfew."
"Oh tosh just use disalusionment to not be seen now off you go."

You're a staff member couldn't you escort me and explain i'm there to perform a task for you?

I also agree halloween would have made more sense for the haunted shop. Though they do do creepy well the quest where you crawling under a rock and the spiders scurry over hte top of you had me ducking

[zenith abyss]

Even funnier after that first moon quest. You can later just walk freely in and out of the Faculty Tower and no one cares 😅

[honest karma]

yeo

[forest nova]

i think it was a scrapped thing, the curfew system

[feral locust]

It is lol. The character mentions it but I think they got rid of it at the last second

[zenith abyss]

Yah I think so too

[honest karma]

its also odd that hte prefects bathroom is in the faculty tower and when your doing the quest there's half a dozen prefects guarding it

[feral locust]

Lol they care about their bathrooms

[zenith abyss]

They all had to go at the same time

[forest nova]

have you ever seen the hordes of girls going to the bathroom? i think its like that

[honest karma]

I can see the arguments for not having curfew from an annoyance/game play perspective but it does hurt immersion.

You also have them setting a trap in front of hte library with 3 of them guarding it while the librarians inside and one door locked so you get lured to the wrron gside

[feral locust]

Yeah that's why they got rid of it lol

But I feel like it would've been more immersive

[honest karma]

Well that's more to chat and borrow make up or the like frm what i've been told

[upbeat plank]

I think curfew would be kinda pointless due to invisibility.
Plus it's not like they enter the rooms you go in once you go through.

[zenith abyss]

Yah moon also emphasized a lot MC had to be invisible when doing the gathering at night. Which didn’t really matter but my first play through I thought I had to be lol

[honest karma]

like being able to sit int he chairs.

[forest nova]

dlc idea: you go to azkaban for the atrocities you committed

[zenith abyss]

This m! I have so many chairs in my ROR and I can’t sit in them or the benches in my vivarium

[upbeat plank]

I'm expecting the ability to at least sit in the common room to be added in eventually

[honest karma]

Is it wrong I want to creep up behind the prefects nad cast petrificus totalis while wearing the prefects uniform?

[feral locust]

Yeahhh that would've been sick lol

Or having a little house or something. I know it's hogwarts and we're student but we're grown lol

[upbeat plank]

Off topic but ominis gaunt and Sebastian gotta be my favorite Slytherin characters.
Ominis is surprisingly nice lol.

[glad rivet]

There's a house conjuration for the RoR 🤔

[honest karma]

Have the room of requirement give us something like Newts bigger on the inside trunk which is the room we get only you access it via a trunk

The house goes in the viviraium which is in the room we can't take it with us

[feral locust]

Yeah but. It's not the same lol

Like I'll go to a dorm in the school and act like it's my house lol

I think it's one of the teacher dorms

[forest nova]

Tip: Cast imperio on a troll and kill him by casting petrificus totalus 10 times

[honest karma]

There are plenty of empty houses around the land claim one of them

[glad rivet]

Finding the teachers' personal rooms was one of my favorite things

[glad rivet]

"I wonder who lives here"
idk some random wizard with a weird name who lies passed out drunk on the floor all the time, just squat

[feral locust]

Yeah because it's a lot their personality in them

[upbeat plank]

It feels mad intrusive lol.
Imagine they go back to their rooms only to find it ransacked and their money stolen
Esp considering how they likely have poor pay

[honest karma]

I jus t realized several of the pictures in Figg's room are upside down

[feral locust]

Ronnen had a lot of chests and I took everything lol

[honest karma]

I just treat it as RPG mechanics like the clothes I'm not stealing anything as in real life the money wouldn't be in a sack in the middle of nowhere

[forest nova]

i went afk in garlicks room 🤫

[feral locust]

Exactly

[honest karma]

just like i wouldn't have been caught in real life because i'd just sneak by the prefect not play spell tag while trying to solve an arithmancy door near him. Or him going "ive seen multiple red bolts of magic hit things near me and room elements change, oh and those nuts being eaten . . . I'm sure its nothing.'

though to be fair this is a haunted castle tha tmoves and has at least two poltergeists

[zenith abyss]

I love the signs that say, moving stairs is no excuse for tardiness

[forest nova]

peeves and who

[honest karma]

I count myrtle given what we see her do in the toilets

[forest nova]

myrtle is just a ghost and she isnt there by that point in the story

[glad rivet]

Yeah she's not going to even be born for about 30 more years

[honest karma]

Oh I know she's not here yet but no other ghost does anything like what she does even the ancient oens like nick or the grey lady so I think she might be a poltegeist given how she died or some in between being

[glad rivet]

Ghosts and poltergeists are distinct entities though. Ghosts are... well, ghosts. Dead people's souls floating about. Poltergeists were never alive in the first place, they're just entities of chaos

[honest karma]

I know its just like i said she just doesn't fit in as a normal ghost and she was killed in a dark magic ritual

[forest nova]

she was killed by voldy after she overheard him opening the chamber of secrets

[honest karma]

by a basiliks and generally felt to eb used to make the diary

[radiant sage]

Hey without any spoilers, I have only 4 main quests left and I'm yet to finish Natty, Poppy and Sebastian story line, should I be worried that they didn't trigger yet or will those quest trigger later

[forest nova]

you can do them later

[fiery bear]

I've completed the 3 secrets of Hogwarts but it's not showing completed. I did the Viaduct puzzle, the Key of Admittance and the CLock Tower (both doors). anyone else have this issue?

[feral locust]

Nah you'll finish them don't worry

[radiant sage]

They get triggered after I finish the main quest?

[feral locust]

There's more doors in the clock tower

[forest nova]

the key opens the door and there is one more in the clocktower

[fiery bear]

thank you!

[forest nova]

you can complete them after finishing the main story

[radiant sage]

Okay

Where do trolls spawn the most

I need to kill more 8 for 100% combat

[forest nova]

go to the battle arena near feldcroft and there will be like 3 or 4 each fight

[honest karma]

oh that's just cheating. Sneaking around and the nurse comes out of a level II locked room behind me

[feral locust]

There's dens for them all over the map

[lunar mulch]

ight so i got the game to save i had to load back up the last auto save before the last known save tho

then resave it and it worked

[radiant sage]

Aight

[lunar mulch]

bit annoyed cause i had basically beat the game earlier tho

[honest karma]

Anyone know which windows change with teh seasons?

[forest nova]

?

what do you mean

[honest karma]

One of the trailers the developers mentioned some windows change what they show at Hogwarts depending on the season
