[unique aurora]

Forbidden forest

[kind comet]

Thanks

[pale wyvern]

Yeah that’s what happened! Rocks came down and the platform broke 💀

[unique aurora]

Its near the first entrance where you meet up with the guy from the house specific quest

[torn cove]

You can change how he dies? I thought either way he'll help you before dies

[unique aurora]

Welp, imma go continue my story as a huffelpuff🤮. The things ill do to get platinum

[torn cove]

Platinum? What platinum?

[glass jackal]

ps5 trophy

[red finch]

In one he just dies and there’s no mention of him in the cutscene

In the other he survives long enough to help you and uses the last of his strength and then does

[unique aurora]

The achievement for completing all other achievements

[drifting kelp]

Crookshanks is half kneazle, theres nifflers, dragons boggards, cornish pixies, acromantulas, kelpies, the big squid from the lake, flobberworms, the scropion things hagrid bred

Ooh also hippogriffs

Also fluffy

[torn cove]

Dang

[torn cove]

Fluffy?

[prisma lily]

so im trying to get the hogsmede demiguise moons , so i can get alohamora II and III .... but one of the moons is behind a level II lock?

[rotund adder]

This but when I had to play Gryfinndor 🤢

[drifting kelp]

The three headed dog from harry potter and the philosophers stone

[dusk garnet]

Hmm Im stuck in a mine with the monorails, I was revisiting earlier goblin stuff as im missing collection stuff.

After a big room and fight i take the mono up to a little caged room above, I pulld the lever to open the big door and found 1 collection but there seems no way to progress from that room?

[glass jackal]

There's prob another way to go

[red finch]

Yeah you need to find more moons from elsewhere until you have enough to get the next level from Mr Moon

[dusk garnet]

Cant use the map to say exctly where i am

[torn cove]

Ouhhh right i forgot about that puppy

[novel nova]

does anyone know how many beasts are in each den?
i've found only 1 unicorn in its den every time i go there, 5 for giant purple toad, and maybe 4 thestrals?
wondering if it's a fixed number of spawns per den per beast

[prisma lily]

oh theres more.. ok gotcha

[rotund adder]

I think i know which room that is and there's only the chest in there. You go back to the previous room and find another way forward

[unique aurora]

Collect more moons and give them to the guy to get the upgrades

[novel nova]

zoom all the way out on your map and hover over each section, it shows on the right side how many things are in that area to collect

[unique aurora]

Unicorn and graphorn are only one per den

[stuck storm]

@novel nova is there a setting that turns on that side legend? I cannot seem to get mine to work. It works on the little towns, Hogwarts and hogsmeade. But not on the Forbidden forest, etc.

[torn cove]

Not fixed except for certain beast like unicorn and hippogriff idk about graphorn haven't been to the den after the final trial.

[unique aurora]

Thestrals for me is usually 3, hipogriff is usually 2

The rest tend to be 4 or 5 for me

[torn cove]

Yep hippogriff always 2. The other two only 1 per spawn

[unique aurora]

Since nobody knows spawn rates i guess ill never win this online argument lol

For me tho getting a shiny male and female graphorn was easy enough. Still havent gotten a single shiny unicorn and im almost completely done with the game

[novel nova]

so far the dens ive cleared had 4 kneazles, 4 thestrals, 5 toads, 6 jobberknoll (?) , picked up 4 diricawls but i cant remember if i was checking if i got them all.. havent revisit puffskein and mooncalfs tho

[kind comet]

I’m struggeling with defeating Ranrok. Any tips?

[neat widget]

What problem do you have?

You need to pay attention to the orbs which give him energy, they must be destroyed.

[orchid portal]

His fire blast is pretty strong. It can almost one shot you if you’re low enough level

[unique aurora]

I wish it was an actual fight with ranrok rather than fighting orbs while dodging his attacks

It makes sense tho, makes it so u cant use unforgivables on him

[unkempt delta]

Fr why is he a dragon 🤦‍♂️

[glass jackal]

I'm missing 1 side quest but i can't find it anywhere on the map

[red finch]

Have you done all the map quests? The ones you find in the open world like Well, Well, Well

[glass jackal]

Yep

[red finch]

Have you finished all the companion questlines completely?

[glass jackal]

yep

[red finch]

You must be missing one of the map ones then.

Maybe look up a full list of all the quests and go through yoir completed quests list? See what you’re missing

[glass jackal]

hm okay thx

[kind comet]

Last stage

[torn cove]

Question once you get to credit scene can we go back playing or this is like end for good.

[red finch]

Yeah you can continue after the credits.

[torn cove]

Yeayyyyyy.

Thank you! I thought i can't press skip 😂

[kind comet]

When does the O.W.L exam come?

[violet bridge]

it doesn’t

there’s no exam, I wish there was but it’s only for you to continue exploring and do the last side quest on the game

[kind comet]

Ah, alright.

What happens after the end-of-the-year feast?

[dusk garnet]

Im still trying to 100% before I turn up for that

Think I have 2 wands and about 12 clothing pieces to find and im done

[delicate arch]

In ashwinder hideout at hogsmead, I feel.vibrations when using revelio, but can't find anything... is it broken or am I just not looking hard enough

[dim edge]

Im in heaven, the grassland Vivarium is so big , i can make another beautiful forest

[sleek nymph]

Still depressed cuz I finished the game

[mortal hawk]

Hey folks, currently im in the cave Horklump Hollow, there is a Mountain Troll at the end on lvl 30.
Is it possible that it is not possible to disarm his club or is it because of he has a too high level (he 30 (red color), i am at 28)?

[sleek nymph]

Any netflix series I should watch, any recommendation?

[sleek nymph]

Some trolls can't be disarmed, but you can make him hit a wall when he charges you, which leads to him beeing vulnerable for a few seconds and takes way more dmg. Also send him back the Rock he is throwing at you

[mortal hawk]

Yes i know, just wondering because i have the dueling feat to hit the troll with its own club

[sleek nymph]

May be there is a solution, but I also tried on this troll and couldn't do it (I was at a higher level than him)

[mortal hawk]

hm ok i see, maybe it just works with a normal troll but mountain troll 😛

[kind comet]

What’s the best way to earn XP?

[red finch]

You need to cast flippendo when it’s slammed it climb down iirc

[dusk garnet]

I never managed that one either, the good news is it doesn't matter, just move onto the next fight, you will still 100% without that one

[unique aurora]

Im almost done with the 3rd house getting to map room. One more and ill be done with achievements

[red finch]

I can post a vid in #1075522826087448586 showing when to use flippendo if you want

[unique aurora]

You use flipendo when the troll slams down with his club

[hexed herald]

Did anyone else get a new mission in hogsmeade about entering the Village tomb

A white dot appeared i zoomed in and it was a dundeon/treasure mission

[dusk garnet]

I'm not going to bother with that bit, once is enough for me

[red finch]

It’s not a mission, just a tomb you can go through for loot.

Doesn’t have a collection chest or anything iirc.

[unique aurora]

U only have to get to the map chamber, 3 hours each time

[dusk garnet]

Better use for my time

[unique aurora]

Im only doing it to get all the achievements lol

Cant say im at 100% until i actually get 100% of everything

[dusk garnet]

Those last 3 I can accept that as a not going to happen

I'll 100 without those

[hexed herald]

To 100% and get platium you need all tropheys to comecomplete

[vast hollow]

I feel bad for any student who started Hogwarts midway
oh wait😳

[drifting kelp]

wait there's an actual math classroom in hogwarts lol

[red finch]

Arithmancy class yes.

Teaches you all about the magical properties of numbers and their uses

[drifting kelp]

yeah i just discovered it lol i was like why the hell would there be a classroom hidden behind one of those doors

[glacial vapor]

Who ever came up with fastido should be shot

[frail lotus]

Fr…

[grim kite]

Did yall beat ranrok first attempt?

[blazing jasper]

nope, ||his mechanics are confusing at first, he's immune to dark magic for the most part and he 2 shots you on hard. Took around 8 tries for me||

||both his projectile attacks have extremely strict timing to counter (on hard) and his laser attacks in dragon form seemingly have no proper tell on where he is going to hit at||

[mortal hawk]

Is the Animal shelter always locked to 12 animals and 4 types or is it able to increase that later?

[blazing jasper]

are you early in the game? You unlock more animal biomes much later in the game

[mortal hawk]

I dont know how far i am (honestly i dont want to know it because im afraight it ends soon) Current Main Quest is to meet sebastian in feldcroft to meet his sister.
Currently in the animal shelter of my room im only able to put in 4 types of animals and max 12 animals, just wanted to know because i would like to have at least every animal once

[blazing jasper]

that's like mid game. In a nutshell, to answer your question, yes, you unlock more space later, just play the story

[mortal hawk]

oki, ty

[grim kite]

You had black magic already ?

When do you unlock black magic

[blazing jasper]

a character you meet early in the game (Sebastian) teaches you it slowly over the course of many late game missions depending on choices you make during his storyline

[split wave]

yes, he was quite the pushover

[split wave]

super easy to evade if you're not standing right in front of him, keep your distance and the fight is super easy (also ancient magic just obliterates him)

[split wave]

1 1/2 if you skip all the dialog

[little hare]

whats the best way to level up i have finished the story but i have to be level 34 for the house cup

[tardy ice]

Soooo I've just unlocked Highwing. What do I do with her now? I know I can summon her again, but where should she go? 😅

[split wave]

the only way to get xp is to complete your field guide, thus find a few challenges which are quick, like merlin trials, killing all the different types of enemies, and you level up very quickly

[grim kite]

Are we talking about the same ranrok

[split wave]

but her in a vivarium and mate her

[grim kite]

what difficulty are you playing

[split wave]

if you're talking about the goblin dragon, then yes
hard

[tardy ice]

Gotcha. Thanks

[grim kite]

Ancient magic did nothing against em

[split wave]

you still have to pop the orbs

[grim kite]

Like a really small chunk

[split wave]

did you upgrade your armor on the loom?

[grim kite]

I mean

I didnt choose ancient magic

[split wave]

what do you mean by "didn't choose"?

you have ancient magic since finding the pages

[grim kite]

I selected more damage on all spells

[warm valve]

Where do I find the ‘Hogwarts secrets’

[split wave]

I have/had 4x damage for all spells, 1x diffindo, 1x incendio (both of which I didn't use there), so that should be fine, if you also did the stats upgrades

[grim kite]

I mean I beat him but it was hard, ancient magic did less than 1/10th of his health bar at the end

[split wave]

there's that bridge with the braziers, the clock tower, and using the key of admittance you loot from the headmaster's office

[split wave]

what was your level? though that still shouldn't matter much as if you have fully upgraded armor the game becomes easy mode as enemies scale with your level

[grim kite]

26 I think ? My gear was leveled up one time so like 200 def 200 atk overall... something like that

[split wave]

uh ya, tier 2 and tier 3 upgrades is where it's at for gear to make everything easy

(though tbh restarting the game now felt like easy mode as well, didn't use one potion for the whole 3 runs to get the map chamber achievements)

[grim kite]

nty I have a life

[honest karma]

Can I get back into the scriptorium after solving it or does it seal behind us?

[split wave]

you can get back to it, just interact with the statue again

[honest karma]

excellent thank you

[split wave]

5-6h for all isn't that bad if you compare it with most "harder" achievements from other games, it's just extremely boring if you grind it

[grim kite]

boring enough to grind quests

havent even unlocked flipendo

[split wave]

I'm curious, what were you looking for in this game if you don't like quests/story?

[honest karma]

only thought to use revelio at the end when i found a page now I wonder what others I might miss in places that lock

[grim kite]

Dont get me wrong it is fun solving puzzles and doing quests but it gets tiring very quickly

[split wave]

collection stuff is only in areas you can revisit at any point

[honest karma]

Good to know but I'm missing 5/5 journal entry for noctua

[red finch]

Don’t think you can get back to that area where the pages of her journal were,

[honest karma]

I'm sure I picked it up but its not in my inventory

[split wave]

iirc random pages are notoriously buggy

but they also don't matter, they're just flavor, like codex entries in other games

[honest karma]

I like my codex, its in quest items though

I'm just hoping Isadoras entrys 3-7 are later in the game and I didn't just miss them

Also I'm a Ravenclaw why on earth did I GIVE ||the spellbook of one of Hogwarts founders to someone else before reading it myself||?

[split wave]

sadly there are not enough points in the game where your choices actually affect something

[honest karma]

I'm still missing 20 Hogwarts Revelio cards and not sure where they migth eb

Just found the detention room, not sure what to make of the bird skeleton in a cage

[winged lotus]

how do beast dens respawn?

[hollow plover]

@winged lotus normally if you fast forward a day through the map screen

[honest karma]

I'm in the faculty tower heading up to the headmasters office adn the ding bothers me. No spoilers just a yes or no answer please are there pages in the teachers rooms and the brown divination corridor or are they all in the locked areas at the top (Yes for there are pages in the teachers rooms, no for they're behind the gargoyle and locked door) please?

[split wave]

depending on the camp 1-3 days ingame time

[honest karma]

huh, i just accidentally slotted the bag instead of the food and found out you can nab bag beasts in you vivariums

[split wave]

whenever you hear a ding, then there's a page, and yes, there are pages up there

so both

[honest karma]

just wasn't sure if it was increased ranging hitting resutlts above me. That is I'm at A (teachers room) and whether the ding is also at A or at B two levels up and behind a locked door

[split wave]

probably both, sometimes the ding bugs and sounds way louder than it should be, sometimes even with rumble, I had a revelio ding which was loud, and with rumble in a teacher's room, but the page was actually behind the locked door, just above

[honest karma]

that's what worries me oh well i'll have another look through there, if only the glowing page lasted as long as the other stuff that revelios it'd be easier to find

Does anyone know how beast breeding for colours works? If I have 2 white shiny puffskein can they produce a dark brown or just more white ones, can 2 dark brown produce a pink, do i need a pink ands a brown for either colour chance?

[ivory skiff]

Hello, after finishing the story with the "good" ending and seeing the "bad" ending on YouTube, the story left me happy, I don't know if you understand what I mean.

[old beacon]

I think shiny with shiny produces only shinies

Shiny with norm makes both while hippogrith mount that is the preorder makes shiny with norm

[honest karma]

That's what somoene thought just looking for confirmation if the non shiny works the same e.g. dark brown + dark brown 100% chance dark brown offspring, dark brown + pink = 50/50 dark brown or pink offspring rather than say dark brown + dark brown can give you dark brown, light brown, pink or shiny white puffskein?

[hexed herald]

I got about 50 collection to get, are the treasure spots counted as Collectables or are only the collectables counted as collectables. One says Collection the other is sellable loot

[hoary forge]

Doing the house specific quest now

[honest karma]

It'd be nice if this game wasn't so dark I swear the day's last half the time of the nights and every quest si at eavening which rapidly becomes night and I can't see anything to admire the scdnario

[unique aurora]

If it gives conjuration, wand handles, or other collectables then it counts. If the chest gives gear or money it doesnt

[wintry cipher]

I keep trying to get the "breed every beast" achievement but I can't seem to get a female graphorn, i always find the male ones 😅

[dusk wing]

I’m on the last demiguise
Does anyone know where the demiguise is in the south wing of hogwarts?

I’ve looked everywhere as far as I know

[glad rivet]

My husband finished the game at nearly 100% and never got a male unicorn lol. My very first non-quest graphorn was female

[hoary forge]

Almost up to unlocking my room of requirement

My next quest is "flying class"

[upbeat plank]

Demiguise quest is so annoying lol.
Even guides sometimes doesn't help bc they can be behind lvl 2 locks which I don't have yet

[lean rivet]

yeah lots of footwork goes into that questline.

[old beacon]

At least it tells you that your missing a demiguise in this area

[honest karma]

I still want to ignore Emmet and just do the assigned course

[loud heart]

Avalanche please give us Tempus spell so we know its time for night and we can get Demiguise statue and use telescope. I am so frustated just because want to know its already midnight or not

[honest karma]

Even just a pocket watch. It's especially frustrating when you want it to be day so you can see what's around you and admire it but wait just seems to go from night to night to night. . .

[loud heart]

I hate wait system too actually. But still its ok

[strong island]

Wasn’t expecting to hear a remix of How to Train Your Dragon in Hogwarts Legacy hahaha

[unique aurora]

Finally got all the achievements

[honest karma]

I normally use it for things like demiguise statues and the like but I jsut feel like my game keeps trying to be nigthtime. It seems to last longer than the day, I can wait mulltiple times and its still dark, quests stat and it goes to night rigth after the sun finally rises, very frustrating

Also apparently ||Anne is a bad name for kids in 19th century magical community. Anne Thisbe jailed when innocent and driven mad, Anne Sallow cursed for trying to help someone.||

[unique aurora]

U just gotta wait once, it brings you to sunrise right before the sun comes up. Thats why its still dark

If u wait a second time ur just going right back to night

[honest karma]

no or if so mine's buggy. Dark - wait dark - wait dark but will get lighter. I need to wait twice for some reason and by the first dark i mean I see the sun go down s its not predawn

[unique aurora]

Odd, if its night i only have to wait once

[honest karma]

I consistently have to wait twice for some reason

[unique aurora]

But i also can see just fine at night

[honest karma]

I have my settings turned quite a bit dwon so I can actually benefit from Lumos

[unique aurora]

Brightness on my tv is 30 out of 50, hdr amd 4k probably helps

Cant really complain about night being too dark if u did it on purpose imo😂

[honest karma]

my tv's on presets

I'm more complaining tis nearly ALWAYS night I want some day time to actually admire things

[unique aurora]

Fair. Ive never really had an issue tho, its usually daytime when i get back outside from a quest or inside the school

I usually have an issue with it being daytime too often when trying to find demiguises. Constantly had to wait

[honest karma]

I get night, persistent and near eternal night

[wicked walrus]

If you want to see something truly beautiful, go into the forbidden forest. Start a fight and summon highwing for your escape fly straight up above the trees. You're welcome for the beautiful graphical view and the majestic rescue

[unique aurora]

Im curious where everyone is at in the game, and how many hours. Im at 74 with one character at 100% and all the achievements

[honest karma]

52 and just got to winter

[unique aurora]

Is winter second or third? Cant remember

[honest karma]

summer, autumn, winter

[unique aurora]

Had to spend 8 hours on getting 3 new characters to the map chamber

[honest karma]

I will do that after I finish my first, I hear that emblems appear in it

[unique aurora]

Whats that?

[honest karma]

no idea just heard that completing it with a house makes an emblem appear in it keep forgetting to look and see if i can see a ravenclaw one or if its made up.

I have no suitable winter hat'

[unique aurora]

I mean, ur house wins the house cup despite there being no points system for it

So the great hall flags probably change

[wicked walrus]

No need to block out the spoiler in this chat. That's the sole purpose

[wicked walrus]

I think he was talking about the map chamber, not the great hall

[unique aurora]

I havent been back there, might have to check

[wicked walrus]

I don't think any flags or emblems appear in there not to my knowledge. Anyway, I haven't checked either but I'm pretty sure they only appear in the great hall at the end

[honest karma]

yes map not greeat hall.

@wicked walrus I felt it was borderline on story spoilers so I spoilered it in case. I know most people don'tc are but I try to limiit those to the proper channel

[unique aurora]

Not seeing anything

[wicked walrus]

Spoilers general and spoiler story doesn't matter. Spoilers are allowed in both

[honest karma]

perhaps a false rumour

@wicked walrus
Yes but I feel this channel is more "How do I solve X" which can carry spoilers not "At the end of the tale Hercule's rejects godhood and becomes mortal" someone may want to have the story unspoiled but need to tlak about a specific quest

[unique aurora]

Some of the floor is ravenclaw blue, idk if it was always blue or not. I never looked at the floor style

[honest karma]

snow's a bit dissapointing looks like tv static

[tough quail]

Idk who's idea it was to add snow on top of the characters head but that was a nice touch that made me forget about the sad snow on the ground

[unique aurora]

It definitely doesnt hold up to games like gowr or hfw in terms of graphics. But the level of detail from the books is amazing

[honest karma]

awww i was hoping the vivarium would change with the eason

[unique aurora]

Its probably due to them running unreal engine 4 instead of 5

Which makes sense since unreal engine is from 2022 when the game was supposed to be released meaning it wasnt available at the time the game was made. But unfortunately means the graphics feel like 2018 instead of 23

[honest karma]

I'm just said I haven't had a proper thunderstorm

anyone done much with breeding beasts?

go to room, tend to room, speak to deek, exit hogwarts night AGAIN and once more I must wait twice to get to day

[glad rivet]

Yes?

[honest karma]

@glad rivet Do you know how the colouring works?

Not sure if its Dark Brown + Dark Brown = Dark Brown or Dark Brown + Dark Brown = Any colour variant. Same with shiny's can a shiny puffskein + a dark brown = either shiny or dark brown?

Trying to reduce my numbers if I can get any colour from any colour pair that'd be good, if I can get it as long as one parent is that colour I an still reduce numbers by about half, if I need both of a colour to get it that'll be a problem

[rugged vine]

Is there any reliable way to track which enemies have had ancient magic used on them (for the "Finishing Touches" achievement)?
Also, does the achievement track actual Ancient Magic attack or also Ancient Magic throw?

[honest karma]

Last time it was asked the answer was no you just have to make a list and work through it

[unique aurora]

Ancient magic attack. And i have screenshots i can send you that i used as a checklist

[rugged vine]

I would really appreciate that, thank you ... will you DM me?

Also, does the list include special enemies/infamous foes or only the regular enemies?

[dusk garnet]

Which collection do Butterflies add to?

[honest karma]

No idea sorry haven't really pursued them. Probably exploration?

Rather amusing watching someone who hasn't figured out the apperance and is wearing minimal gear to look nice trying to take down a troll as part of the quest and its just ignoring them and walking away as they're doing so little damage. They're getting frustrated at being ignored by an enenmy.

[drifting kelp]

[elfin gulch]

I had two shiny hippogriffs give me a non-shiny kid... so there's that.

[split wave]

conjurations

[honest karma]

well its something, i may need to do some breeding to see. Just trying to sort out how best to fill my vivariums. Two few slots for all the colours

[honest karma]

Does dropped loot ever despawn? Some spiders rather inconsiderately left their fangs below ground where I can't get to them and I'm hoping they'll dissapear instead of constantly shownig up on Revelio

on a semi-realted note doing Aranshire spider quest and I come to the webbed abandoned village and hear myself say "Its like a place right out of a storybook." Apparently I don't read nice fairy tales.

[misty rivet]

Advices for Trophy Hunters:

If you’re missing AM targets, you should clear every battle arena , nearly every enemy is spawning there

If you’re having trouble with a 100x combo, just accio, arresto and auto attack an inferius (super easy because it will not take any dmg)

Revelio spamming while flying will help you to find all butterflies 🦋 for the other objectives be sure to check me map counter

Don’t touch biscuit’s cage until you’ve unlocked the quest (otherwise you’ll have to play another run)

[full blaze]

I just got a shiny baby when I combine shiny with shiny, I got that with Kneazels and Puffskeins

[honest karma]

Its more does 2 x dark brown = dark brown or can I get a pink

Also thanks for the trophy hunting advice I normally wouldn't have bothred for a 100 x combo but a inferi tried to interrupt my diracawl hunt so I used it for that

[full blaze]

I just tried once the same colour combination and it gave me the a baby with same colour of the parents, but I tried more colour combinations to see what was gonna be

[honest karma]

@full blaze Thanks, just on the verge of unlocking this myself. I've been told by people they think same colour = same colour, different colours = 50/50 but none of them have done any real experiments to see if tha'ts correct

[full blaze]

Yeah, I’ve made some experiments, but almost with one shiny and another random colour, and it usually gives a random colour.

Something that I have some questions is about the spawn of shiny ones. Like, always spawn new ones in the den, or I have to catch them to respawn new ones?

[honest karma]

@full blaze I believe spawning will work i saw a video on fast graphorn hunting shiny and it basically involved reloading out of combat till you get it.

Also something tells me when Deek said there were some Thestrals near Hogwarts he didn't mean me to grab hte male/female pair in the stables

[tame lance]

So I bred the quest unicorn with another pure white unicorn and got a Gold unicorn!

[honest karma]

interesting so maybe it is 50/50 or maybe its random. Could save me a lot of space if you can get any colour from any colour combinatino

[foggy summit]

Does anyone know where I could find the last conjuration collection call small vivarium decorations? I finished everything else and the vivarium chests

[split wave]

go to your map and hover over every territory and check 'collection chests'

[hasty burrow]

Unlikely @foggy summitas the contents are randomised for all players.

All you can realistically do is zoom all the way out on the map and try to track down which region is reporting one collection chest missing. From there, use a service like Map Genie to try and track down the location.

Some players have suggested there is a missing or bugged butterfly spawn, but this has yet to be confirmed.

[foggy summit]

ahh i see, i finished all the collections @split wave

so thats the only one I missed, im guessing to track back the possible missing butterflies i might miss

[hasty burrow]

Zoom out on the map to make this a far less painful search 👍

[foggy summit]

for the butterflies?

[hasty burrow]

Well for collection chests in each region.

[foggy summit]

bc its 100% for all the places,so.....

[hasty burrow]

Butterfly spawns are not specifically listed, but will be included in the collection chest count for each region.

[foggy summit]

means im guessing its the butteflies yeahh, tks for the help!

[wicked walrus]

I've already beaten RanRock I'm just working on getting the level for the house cup and completing the field guide

[viral river]

I finished the story and now I want to complete the game to 100%.

Im searching now for like 30+ minutes the last collection chest in the forbidden forest and cleared all camps. I literally flew above the forest in a stripes pattern to find the chest icon on the mini map but no. I dont find it at all. Is there a better way to see where the unopened chests are? How did you find all chests?
I already completed the landing platforms, ancient magic, merlin trials, Balloons and astronomy tables.

[quick basalt]

Some chests can be in dungeons too, so make sure you hover over all the dungeons to see if you're missing any

[viral river]

ok for example in the jackdaws tomb could be a chest which counts to the area of the forbidden forest?

if so, that would be bad. I dont want to search in all dungeons again 😅

[red finch]

If you hover over a dungeons icon it will tell you if it has a collection chest in it or not. If it’s just test describing the dungeon, there isn’t a collection chest in there

[viral river]

oh okay this is helpful! Thanks :)

[vast hollow]

Hmm I think the Alohonora mini game kinda defeats the whole purpose of that spell

[viral river]

in my imagination this minigame takes less then a second in realtime

[red finch]

This and the mini game is the magic of the spell itself working

[viral river]

Im currently writing a list of all the things I was missing in hogwarts legacy

things, for which I would have waited another year

[unique aurora]

Have you done all the butterflies?

[viral river]

Yes

[unique aurora]

Check the dungeons on the map, they say how many chests are in each one

[wicked walrus]

Switch to story mode and gives you the option to press square when you encounter locks

[cunning yew]

MC: Hit with Crucio, takes it like a champ, keeps it pushin
Natty: KO'd, needs wheelchair

[magic heart]

I have expelled Sebastian so that means i cant learn Avada Kedavra right?
Or is there another way?

[queen elbow]

Nope, once he’s gone you don’t get any chance to learn curses.

[magic heart]

😭😭

[queen elbow]

Hey if you wanted to learn immeasurable dark power, you shouldn’t have snitched. Lol

[magic heart]

Yeah but i have been answering to Sebastian again and again that we shouldn't do that and then i got pissed and told on him

Now i regret it lol

[queen elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/puerto-rican-mine-gif-23270685

[magic heart]

I hope they make another way to learn Avada Kedavra 🙏

[queen elbow]

I'm okay with them locking it behind Sabastian. It gives you an actual cost for turning him in. I just wish that turning him in was more impactful. It really seems you get more from both a gameplay and story perspective by keeping him around.

[delicate arch]

Do off springs grow?

[red finch]

I find it interesting that if you don’t turn him in and then do the Final Repository mission (or if you just don’t do that choice quest before) you end up telling Seb it was Rookwood and he starts to feel guilt about blaming goblins and instead focuses on Dark wizards.

But if you turn him in and Ominis tells him, he begins to hate Dark wizards **and **goblins even more rather than just the faction that was to blame

[red finch]

Nope they stay babies forever

[magic heart]

I wish i could redoo it 🥹

[unique aurora]

I learned all the spells first and then snitched cause he is annoying

[delicate arch]

Ty

[hollow gale]

Alohamora game is more stressful when in a restricted/hostile area and you just hear aggro noises

[wicked walrus]

@weary wigeon hurry up and fix the bug with the Take the biscuit quest it's causing serious emotional distress

[wicked walrus]

Lower the difficulty to story and press the square button

[hollow gale]

Nahh I'm not really desperate tbh I live for the stress

Also seeing your name with that role is an experience

[wicked walrus]

It's because of the nitro role in here

[hollow gale]

Ohh xD omg

[onyx marsh]

Are we able to save Anne at all?

[wicked walrus]

No

[onyx marsh]

So no matter my dialogue choices Sebastian will do his thing ?

[wicked walrus]

Yeah he'll keep trying but you won't be able to save her. He'll still kill his uncle I'm sure But in the end it fails. I don't know if she dies if she does it's off screen

[onyx marsh]

I just finished my first playthrough and started a new one, he’s my favorite character followed by Poppy. Man it’s tragic af

[wicked walrus]

Yeah and Take The Biscuit Mission is bugged right now animals trapped in a cage. If anyone's triggered by that, DO NOT . I repeat. DO NOT run that mission

[unique aurora]

I didnt have an issue with it

[wicked walrus]

I'm up to the point where I'm trying to unlock the cage and the lock won't show up

[unique aurora]

My favorite character is natty followed by poppy

[lean stag]

hello guys, when i'm able to wear skins? i'm lvl 20 already...

[tough pelican]

Sebastian all the way

[unique aurora]

Hover over the gear and hit square

[lean stag]

oh god, you wanna say that i was able all the way through the game?

[unique aurora]

Apparently the glitch happens when you unlock the cage in the bandit camp before going on the quest

[zenith abyss]

Transmog should have been accessible already ever since you got the field guide book

[unique aurora]

It was, its just easy to miss lol

[lean stag]

my god.......

[wicked walrus]

I only accepted the curses because I wanted to get all the spells. If I could go without those three and still have everything I would have declined I'm the descendant of Godric Gryffindor Not Salazar Slytherin

[unique aurora]

As a slytherin i would learn the spells and not turn in sebastian, as a ravenclaw i learned the spells and then turned his annoying ass in, for huffelpuff i wouldnt learn or turn him in, as gryffindor i wouldnt learn them and id turn him in

[wicked walrus]

I actually never turned him in I beat the story. I'm just doing side missions to get the level 34 and completing the field guide so I can get the house cup

[dull terrace]

are there missable quests? as in if i fly past a town but don't interact with the side missions could i lose any?

[red finch]

Nope none are missable iirc.

Some might briefly dissapear but they should all be there after the main storyline is done

[dull terrace]

ok ty

[median knot]

How do I find out what Daedalian Key I’m missing I have 15/16 house keys

[red finch]

You could look up a guide and then see which of the cabinets you’ve not opened yet?

[median knot]

I found it, thanks tho

[round minnow]

Just finished the main story. Time for the second play through….except this time…..evil

[lean stag]

how many hours did it take to finish?

[hollow gale]

Flying bird: sees brush ".. gimme a second"
Flying thestral: sees brush "?!! OH I AM LANDING RIGHT NOW!"

[unique aurora]

To get 100% was 64 hours for me

[mystic snow]

Is it possible to finish a side quest like Sebastian for example in one season? Wondering if I should pursue all these side quests before I do the third trial or if I should wait to do them after the third trial.

[red finch]

No the relationship quests only advance after certain seasons

They’re tied to main quest progression

[round minnow]

27ish hours. I mixed side quests and main. About 50% complete on challenges.

[mystic snow]

Thank you!!

[wicked walrus]

An infernius was glitched it survived Avada kadavera but died when I used imperio and petrificus totalis

[honest karma]

You know I think Figg is the alchemy teacher. Yes his card says magical theory but alchemy is only taught when there's sufficient interest so whoever teaches it would be brought in occasionally and not worth having a classroom for or someone who normally teaches another subject. Figg magical theory/alchemy, Dumbledore transfiguration/alchemy. That or there's a lot more interested in alchemy than you'd think 🤔

[unique aurora]

There is an alchemy classroom tho. You would think if it was combined they would just use the same classroom

[red finch]

Yeah the Alchemy classroom is all the way in the dungeons and his classroom is literally calked “Professor Fig’s classroom”

Besides alchemy is a NEWT level class that few have the skill or want to take

[mystic snow]

Do the different brooms you can unlock and purchase have different speeds/stats or is the upgrade the only way to change that?

[red finch]

No they’re purely cosmetic

The upgrades you can unlock for purchase are the only thing that affects the stats, the brooms you can buy are essentially just skins

[halcyon wagon]

Do we actually ever see Ashwinders? Like the magical snake? Did I miss them?

[hoary forge]

I am about to unlock my room of requirement

And i am excited

[neon bough]

I don't think you missed them, the creature itself does not appear to be in-game

[full birch]

Can you complete the final quest The House Cup and continue playing to finish all side quests and collectibles?

[neon bough]

yup! even companion quests that unlock late in the game can wrap up afterward

[zenith abyss]

Yes you can

[full birch]

Thank you both so much!

[neon bough]

embarrassed to say I kept Poppy waiting for her finale ^^;

[full birch]

I have a few out there I need to do lol. One being the flying non terrible with flying.

[neon bough]

good luck, fly safe! I've also got one final broom course to get through since I kept a fair few of the southeastern quests for post-feast.

[hollow gale]

Tbh, when asked to bring someone knowing Goblin language, I think of Rowland Oakes instead of Amit

[strange flame]

so true

[red ember]

Bro we did Lodgok D I R T Y. What was the point of standing by him wand out if we just let Rookwood wind up a shot and didn’t even attempt to stop him. Imma cry bro. He was so sweet.

[potent leaf]

Big facts

[strange flame]

also so truuuuueee and also rookwood ended up being so easy couldve beat them both there

[red finch]

I’m still wondering why Lodgok thought bringing a journal full of the exact info that the big bad needed right to the very place where he and his other loyalists are?

Could have met anywhere else.

Or destroyed the journal and just told the MC

But he practically handed it to Ranrok on a silver platter

[hoary forge]

Now my next goal is the quest that allows me to yoink nifflers

I just got my room of requirement and painted it all yellow

[potent leaf]

Yeee that confused me too. Just felt like „lets do this to get the plot to move“ idk the game got kinda lazy at the end

[red finch]

Yeah. Like come on, that journal has exactly what Ranrok wants and you thought to bring it right into the heart of enemy territory instead of destroying it and just relaying the info or showing it to us somewhere else?

Like the only reason Ranrok was after is is because he thought we’d be able to lead him to the final repository with our ability to see traces of Ancient Magic.

But because Lodgok did such a Big Brain move, we’re now expendable once more

[potent leaf]

EXACTLY! I hated it and then we also just stood there when lodgok got killed like…we have magic. And I never got why we decided to meet THERE like WHAT WAS THE REASON???? Why not have us meet somewhere else but ranrok found us but nooo WE LITERALLY WENT TO RANROK LIKE WHYYYY

[red finch]

It just makes no sense.

Now if the original plan in development was that he betrays us and hands us over would have made way more sense.

Now if that was changed so that there can be a “good guy goblin” and a cheap death for drama, they should have changed that entire sequence to make actual sense

[viral river]

oh man, I have exactly 4 field guide pages left in the whole game and they are all in hogwarts. I have no clue where they are. I flew over the lands and ran through the castle spamming revelio for an hour now.

They cant be in the other common rooms I guess, that wouldnt make sense.

[red finch]

Do you have all the Revelio pages?

There are some that are only obtainable through quests

And there’s a bugged flying page in the Belk Tower region,

[strange flame]

i literally thought he was tryna betray mc

[potent leaf]

Yeah. I rlly liked lodgok but I hated how stupid the ending of his quest-line was like bruh?? Logic?? Where???

[strange flame]

i liked lodgok with it took a little for him to warm up, seems like he didnt realize to keep the same reservation towards ranrok

[viral river]

You mean the history classes quest?

I go to the belk tower now and maybe I have luck

[potent leaf]

Yeah like I get it brothers n stuff but like THAT MADE NO SENSE

[red finch]

Yeah could have done so much more with his arc.

Have him and Fig meet and have some tension there. Give Fig more than just the “I repeat everything you tell me but in a shocked voice and kind of just hang around” guy

Like imagine them meeting and Gig actually showing some emotion by getting angry and/or sad that Lodgok knew Miriam before she died

[red finch]

That’s one of the quest locked ones yeah there’s a few

[viral river]

to be honest, imagine the game would have had a morality system and you could join ranrok at the end * mind blown *

[potent leaf]

Yasssss missed opportunity big time. Ah man I rlly wished they made that make more sense. Like did they rlly just write that quest like that and go „yeah that makes sense no problems whatsoever“

[red finch]

Lol Ranrok wouldn’t let a wizard join his side.

100% he’d kill you and any of the other dark wizards the second they stopped being useful to him. He hates wizardkind,

[potent leaf]

Yeah lol

[viral river]

Today I made a list with like 30+ points with my ideas and wishes for hogwarts legacy and what I really missed in the game.

[viral river]

yeah thats the problem

[potent leaf]

[red finch]

Right?

Like finding the plans (and needing Amit) made no sense. Just let me actually steal the plans and bring them to Lodgok.

And killing Rookwood so easily in a blink and you miss it fight Luke have been done so much better.

Like have him Aoparate away before we beat him, then we go relay what we found out about exactly who cursed Anne and then have a cool post main quest thing where ins, Seb and Ominis hunt hi doe and depending on how you’ve been acting with Seb (supporting him with the Dark Arts or telling him to stop) he either kills Rookwood or incapacitates him for the authorities

[viral river]

Hm okay I dont see any flying page in the bell tower region. The one, which was flying above the beasts class hut I already catched 2 weeks ago (and it was a little bit buggy too because after I hit it accidently with glacius the page was gone - but came back later and then I catched it)

[red finch]

There’s a flying page above the garden area that doesn’t count when you pick it up

[viral river]

oh okay well. I dont remember it anymore. I think I caught it weeks ago then

So I guess I need to wait until portkey games fixes it

[red ember]

Yeah lol

[unkempt delta]

Bcuz plot

[red ember]

Yeah. But he’s sooo sweeeeetttttt 😢😢😢

[red ember]

The way he said “I brought it for you” made me so sad…

[potent leaf]

God I wish. Amit was kinda useless. I also didnt realise that we defeated rookwood I kinda expected s cutscene but he just did like every common enemy man

[hoary forge]

What quest tteaches me alohamora?

[red finch]

Lodgok, that’s sweet and all, I really appreciated it… but right into enemy territory where the guy who really wants it is? The guy who you know kills any goblins he considers “traitors” without blinking?

Cmon Lodgok, you’re smarter than that

[potent leaf]

The game rlly just dumbed him down without remorse

[viral river]

Mr. Moon will write to you

[hoary forge]

When will that be approximately?

[viral river]

hm you needed to visit hogsmeade and some more main quests

if you complete the quest percival rookwoods challenge

[strange flame]

I did like amit tho, he seemed fun and had common sense Which I appreciated, altho needing him when we knew others was a bit weird.

[red ember]

BUT HEEWSSSSS SOOO SWEEEEEETTTTT

[red finch]

And fig only finds out he knew Miriam because we repeat back everything we’ve done up to that point.

I really wanted fig to be more involved, but he’s just our means of a “previously on” by going over all the main quests we’ve done lol

Even journeying to the trials he’s useless. They’re all things we pull do on our own he kind of just stands there and does nothing

[hoary forge]

Thanks, i just unlocked the room of requirement btw so i was just curious how far i was away

[potent leaf]

He’s kinda like paimon in genshin. Like thanks BUT I GOT IT

[hoary forge]

I hope he is less annoying than paimon atleast

[potent leaf]

Thankfully he is

But thats not hard sadly

[hoary forge]

Thank goodness, bc i dont want to be tempted to unalive him repeatedly

[potent leaf]

Hahaha

[hoary forge]

Ik i sound like a slytherin rn XD

[potent leaf]

Stereotyping how rude

[hoary forge]

Well badgers arent scared of snakes or lions

[red finch]

Yeah considering how important he seemed for the journey, he didn’t really do a lot.

Sure he distracted the Headmaster. But I think it would have been cooler if we could ask students we’ve helped to do that. Or ask Ominis to throw his name around or something.

Otherwise fig kind of just exists to repeat back everything we tell him we did up to that point.

[potent leaf]

Yeah and then he died lol. Didnt even feel sad cuz…cool

[strange flame]

Yeah, thats why I feel his death was very cheap, I barely knew this guy!

[hoary forge]

I struggle to actually feel sad about deaths at all

[red finch]

Honestly I think Figs only real development was right at the end…

When he says that he wishes he’d told more of the faculty what was going on and asked for help. Because he had been lying to them all up to that point

But i felt like that was all he got.

Really should’ve had him have an angry confrontation with Lodgok over Miriam or something. Have him blame Lodgok for her death and get really mad

[hoary forge]

His death was spoiled for me but i was more hurt by the thestrals being eaten by a dragon

[unkempt delta]

Classic hufflepuff

[red finch]

Like if we had a bit more development and nuance to him, his death would have had more meaning.

And with the “evil” ending we should have seen him again. Maybe had him begging us to seal it and beg for Miriam’s wand, only for us to say no and leave him to die without even reuniting with the last part of Miriam

[hoary forge]

Spoilers for popular games that release are pretty hard to avoid when people dont put spoiler warnings on tiktok videos

[strange flame]

It wasnt that tho

[hoary forge]

My for you page was FULL of spoilers

[strange flame]

But I felt more for the random people mc finds dead

[red finch]

Honestly same.

I think I felt more sad for George’s death than Figs.

We barely knew George but he expressed so much more personality in the brief time we knew him, than Fig showed through the entire game imo.

George was playful and cheeky, but he pull get very serious when needed. Was curious and wary at the same time when M saw the glow.

[hoary forge]

I kinda laughed the moment the thestrals showed up bc my mind went to "thestrals: yeah he isnt gonna walk that off"

[red finch]

“Damn, MC processed and accepted that death real quick lol”

[strange flame]

True. I liked George 😔

[versed vector]

I wish there were missions we had to avoid the headmaster...never saw him >_>;;; saw him more when we had to pretend to be him than anything else loo

[hoary forge]

I was basically like "yeah youre dead, whats next?"

[strange flame]

Yeah I was expecting head master to be, u know, actually really bad. But barely see the guy!

[versed vector]

yeah xD i thought he was gunna be a real wrench in a lot of our plans ahaha.

and i did get upset when fig passed , i unno..yeah i did so much on my own that it wasnt a full on " MY BOYYYY THATS MY BOYYY" moment but i was like " nyooo D;>"

[hoary forge]

I dont like the headmaster at all

[versed vector]

esp when i thought he died and i was upsetti..then he came back ni was like yeeey :D...then he got got for real n i was like wtf D;>

[red finch]

I saw one scripted sequence in the DADA tower with him.

First e was chilling on the sofa by the tea party thing right by the DADA classroom, thought that was odd until I moved around the stairs and saw two Slytherin’s students bullying a Hufflepuff. Then Black wandered over and started the scripted scene before he wandered off once it was done

[hoary forge]

He is a butthead

[red finch]

But not seen him outside of cutscenes and the Poly uice mission

[strange flame]

I did think playing as head master was fun, but still wanted him to be so much worse.

[versed vector]

really?? man lucky..i hadnt seen him at all outside of cutscenes..i kept thinking that i was gunna find a letter where he was off at the ministry more often because of the goblin issues or sumthin,bt that reason never came up so i was like where he at?! >O<

[red finch]

I only saw it after I’d done everything else in the game including the House Cup lol

[hoary forge]

I think my professor fig is bugged bc he keeps beinging up a cutscene from a past quest ;-;

[versed vector]

oh ok,i just beat the game fully this past sunday...i foud this discord out of sadness yearning for more content ;-;

[versed vector]

you mean youre doing a cutscene from a quest after beating the game and hes still in it?

[hoary forge]

I just got my room of requirement and when i spoke to him for the quest after he returns and he gives me the blooming first quest cutscene

[versed vector]

wait....youve ..only just not got RoR and youre in spoilers tab o_o???

[hoary forge]

Spoilers dont scare me lol

I just dont want to accidentally spoil things with my progress for other people that dont like spoilers

[versed vector]

oh...uh ok xD its your life. uhm im not so sure ..i feel i cant even remember that far back i only remember weasly for ROR

[unkempt delta]

Deek

[hoary forge]

My next quest is the map chamber btw

[versed vector]

deek is the goat

[hoary forge]

I kinda had a bugged out "welcome to hogwarts" quesr for ages XD

[dapper beacon]

No, deek is a house elf

[hoary forge]

I find it funny that i named my character Aura moonbow only to find an npc named mr moon

[hoary forge]

Goat is a title that means Greatest Of All Time

[dapper beacon]

And my comment was a joke😂

[versed vector]

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY xD i was like "incase this wasnt a joke,this means ___"

[dapper beacon]

Sorryyyyyyyy

[versed vector]

its ok! some ppl just dont know ,i was just wanting to clarify haha

i love how adorable all the house elfs areeee

[unkempt delta]

True like penny

[hoary forge]

I am already having fun designing my room of requirement

[dapper beacon]

Anyways I havent played Hogwarts Legacy in a long time

[hoary forge]

I just got jumpscared by ignatia ;-;

[versed vector]

lol

i log into it every day to feed and brush my beasts and i still have like...8 hogwarts field guide pages i usually would look it up on yt by now but since inm desperately trying to squeeze more content out because i dont want it to be over yet...i just look for them eerday lolo

[red finch]

OfF oN AnOtHeR aDvEnTuRe ArE wE??!!

[hoary forge]

Keeper trials are up next for me

[hoary forge]

is startled

[versed vector]

i done all my other trials...all the cave treasures..all the enemy dens,all the infamous foes ,all the merlin trials...everything
;_;

[hoary forge]

Im doing all this for the nifflers

[versed vector]

i love them...i named all of mine after diff foods like peanut n nougat and graype

[hoary forge]

I am really hyped to unlock the ability to essentially kidnap nifflers

[versed vector]

we use the term....rescue and relocate...<_<;;;;

LOL

[hoary forge]

Well i use the term "YOINK"

[hollow gale]

I honestly never realized zooming all the way out on map showed you average levels of each region??

As someone doing a relaxed third replay

[hoary forge]

Im doing a chaotic first playthrough

[honest karma]

I realized a week ago default zoom is not the maximum zoom and there's another step further

[vast hollow]

I feel bad for anyone who thinks they know everything about the wizarding world until Sophronia Franklin starts quizzing them

[forest radish]

ah yes, game runs fine earlier, but lags horribly now

totally makes sense

[hoary forge]

My game lags a lot lol

[versed vector]

what are you playing on?

[versed vector]

talk about h u m b l e d

[hoary forge]

A damaged laptop

[versed vector]

Sophronia :"does polyjuice allow you to change species?" *remembers hermoine getting a cat hair and changing into a neko/furry . " Y e s " Sophronia " W R O N G "

[hoary forge]

Might need to discuss possibly upgrading the hardware

[hoary forge]

But sophronia i wana be a furry!

[versed vector]

yeaaaah..im glad youre able to play but thats unfortunate, hopfully youre able to get a gaming pc or some upgrades or sumthin soon :]

[hoary forge]

Had to get the motherboard replaced recently

[red finch]

Yeah the reason Hermione ended up like that is because Polyjuice doesn’t work with hair from another species, only human hair.

[versed vector]

yeah i was making fun of the situation and the humbling of not knowing some things hahaha i didnt answer it that way xD

[red finch]

Ah I get you.

I did pretty good on the quiz. But also learned some new LORE in the process which made my lore hungry bird brain happy lol

[versed vector]

there were some things i learned as well,i just love how this game has gotten me to fall in love with the wizarding world all over again ☺️

[hollow gale]

Tbh Sophronia just made me feel like "dang, I'm being called out for all the useless HP facts stuck in my mind. I don't even know half as much RL facts :I"

[red finch]

Sophronia proving I have no room in my head for normal things, only more lore

[versed vector]

xD crack your knuckles and say "yeah,quiz me i got this" moments later " o "

[hollow gale]

xDDD

So honest, I was originally going to make a male character named Merlin on my first playthrough.
But then I decided not to because I remembered they did exist in lore already and were a Slytherin [I wanted to play Ravenclaw xD]
Well honestly, I saved myself from a lot of confusion

I could've been sneaky and did Emrys instead. But I probably would've still had the "???" moments xD

[glad rivet]

I named my character Hecate to go with the mythological theme..... and then met her and felt silly

[hollow gale]

Omg xDD

[versed vector]

aha!! Im glad I didnt use the name after i saw that, I go by "Heckcat" which is a play on "hellcat" and " Hecate" but ive had a WW OC for yrs named after my Oma so I went with that~

i want at least 6 minimum beast species available to host in
;___;

[tough pelican]

Well I just finished the game. Just need to do my OWLS

[hoary forge]

Professor fig keeps getting stuck on things

[tough pelican]

Do we see Sebastian at all again? Or Ominis?

Last time I saw Ominis it didn’t seem like his story had fully concluded

[versed vector]

you will see right after your owls,its a Montague~ but it depends on if you chose to turn him in or not ^^;;

[glad rivet]

... do you mean montage, or are we in Romeo and Juliet now

[versed vector]

omg LOL my autocorrect ,im keeping it
its a very Shakespearian moment

[tough pelican]

What about Sebastian

I’m hoping to see both

[versed vector]

thats what i mean...depending if you turned him in or not ,i mean I know we are in the spoilers tab so..i guess ill just say- if you turned him in then no,you wont see him again though they don't really say hes been tossed into azka, but he is expelled - but if you didnt,you'll talk with him again

i know HWL2 has been confirmed -i dont know what itll be about and if itll be the next school yr which i hope,but the story still seems unfinished with ominis and sebastian no matter which route you take with it :O but maybe thats just me being hopeful

[pearl root]

what should i do first, in the shadow of hope or in the shadow of the mountain?

[versed vector]

i would do mountain first imo ~

[tough pelican]

Yea I spoke with him already in the undercroft where we’re like “glad we’re friends” and such. But I mean after that. Do you see him or Ominis?

[versed vector]

you mean the "no matter what happens,im glad we met" or w/e?

[tough pelican]

After that

I did in the shadow of friendship and completed all of his missions. Is he seen at the end when I do my owls or no?

I mean if we don’t even get to see Ominis, they totally ditched him

[versed vector]

yeah thats what i meant,unless you turn him or or not is whether you see him again. if you turn him in for his deed then no,if you dont,then yes

[versed vector]

you will talk to sebastian one last time via cutscene after OWLS if you didnt turn him in,if you do-its ominis in his place

[tough pelican]

I didn’t turn him in. But I think you’re referring to when fig dies and after his eulogy and you reveal it was Rookwood who cursed Anne

[versed vector]

ah yes i though thats what you were asking about - I turned him in so i cant say whether you see him roaming around the school anymore or w/e ;o i just saw a yt vid on the cutscene difference of whether you turn him in or not~

[tough pelican]

You… turned… him… in…

[glad rivet]

Think he probably just sort of permanently chills in the undercroft now

[versed vector]

naturally. he was goin down a very dark path..and looked all too into it when casting crucio on me..nah...I only hope he'll go into rehabilitation since hes still a kid...but yeah he had to go.

[tough pelican]

Terrible. Dude was a bro!

[versed vector]

he was!! it broke my heart to do it,it really did - but I wasnt bout to go down with alla that..I vibed more w/Ominis after the crucio bit.I still cared for sebsatian up until the abidi kabidi'd his uncle..i was like this dude is unhinged .

i just wish i coulda Blue bar'd [Ancient Magic] his uncle into dust in self defense and i wouldnt have had the make the choice to turn him in .

[queen elbow]

Sadly that's not how it works. If you talk to Ominis he says that Sabastian is sent to Azkaban and that he blames both dark wizards and goblins for his sister's curse. If you don't turn him in, he renounces his grudge on goblins and simply blames dark wizards for it.

So essentially, if you turn him in, he gets worse. If you let him stay, he seems to redeem himself. He even mildly chastises you for asking him to learn curses despite all y'all went through together.

[wicked walrus]

or learned the curse before the battle and used it yourself with no moral consequences why not right

[tough pelican]

It was the right thing to not turn him in. He’s just a broken kid/young adult who had an uncle that made it so much worse. Like, Sebastian literally brought Anne a small remedy and Solomon destroys it. Part of me thinks the uncle enjoyed taking care of Anne the way she was (forgot what the official mental diagnosis is)

[wicked walrus]

then sebastion doesnt get in trouble

[near dawn]

pottah

[versed vector]

i don't remember that at all-that he curses both..ill have to rewatch that part,but at the time that was my reasoning and still very much stick with the fact that he did a bad so he has the consequence LOL

[tough pelican]

Also he genuinely values your friendship in the end so I’m glad I didn’t turn him in. But tbh though, the thought didn’t even cross my mind to turn him in. After he took the fall for your character in the library, he instantly became my favorite character.

[queen elbow]

It was a difficult choice for me at the time, but once I learned the consequences, it didn't become a choice at all. Letting Sabastian go is just the better ending.

[tough pelican]

Showed he has morals for those he cares for at least. Solomon was a psycho, he deserved what he got. Instead of fighting the Inferi he fought his NEPHEW and his friend.

[versed vector]

he was very much broken,and very much went down the wrong path in a desperate attempt to help his sister with a horrible uncle that didn't seem to be any good in helping. but I guess my thing is ..we all have s h y t we go through and..it just isnt an excuse D; so while my heart hurt to do it...I don't regret it

[red finch]

Yeah he says that unfortunately Sebs hatred has only grown for both goblins **and ** dark wizards.

At least if you don’t turn him in, he starts to focus on the real culprit and feels remorse for hating goblins so much

[versed vector]

also the "no matter what happens" made me feel like he wouldn't blame me or anything too..like he just knew

[tough pelican]

It’s not like he went to Hogwarts and started Avada Kedavraing everyone. It was his uncle who quite literally tried to kill us in the end (I hate texting)

[queen elbow]

Unfortunately, he's suffering consequences in a world that doesn't forgive. So if you're gonna rationalize it, letting him go down his own path and learn from his mistakes is the better outcome than him simply being tossed away and forgotten.

[tough pelican]

THAT is NOT how he meant it!

[versed vector]

ah i remember it being worded that way now -but im not a dark wizard or a goblin he dont hate me so w/e >_> LOL but yeah i wish there was a ..wizarding rehabilitation for young wizards...wizard juvie Dx

[tough pelican]

He said “I’m glad we met” cause he kinda put his trust in you considering you put your trust in him…

[versed vector]

..how is "no matter what happens..im glad we met"..how...how else would one mean that????? xD like ...you say that literally knowing that a choice has to be made and you have no regrets about our friendship LOL like sebastian saying it or not thats literally the meaning of "no matter what" LOL

[tough pelican]

Plus the final conversation with him in the undercroft was worth it. He showed his true colors when you caught up with him in the end

[queen elbow]

My rationalization of it all is this. If you turn him in, the last thing he'll remember is that his best friend betrayed him. If you let him go, he'll always remember that you stuck by him through it all.

[versed vector]

i bet! it was a great moral question to ask our characters to do,regardless of the outcome,I wasnt expecting it

and technically i didnt turn him in...ominis did... ; D LOL

[tough pelican]

Which changed him, at least a little, by the end

[queen elbow]

Ethically speaking, yes he should be turned in to pay for his crimes. But from a moral perspective, Sabastian's punishment far outweighed what he deserved.

[tough pelican]

I mean now the dude has no one. Ominis lost faith in him, his sister, who he undoubtedly loved more than himself even, feels he betrayed her. His purpose is gone. On top of that, imagine rotting in Azkaban, a fate literally worse than death all because he wanted to curse his sister who was in constant pain.

[versed vector]

that is true ,since there is no grey area with those things in this world

no trial probably

[tough pelican]

At least if you don’t turn him in, he’s still got the main character.

[red finch]

Not just one friend.

Both his closest friends and his twin sister. Essentially we’re all his family, chosen or by blood.

[tough pelican]

So in the end, canonically, he’s not alone and regrets his decisions. I hope there’s a dlc where we can cure his sister cause that felt like it was left “open” for a reason.

[tough pelican]

Agreed.

[versed vector]

but when i made the choice it deff wasnt "he needs to be punished" I just had a sense of something else when i chose to do it..but irl if a friend merk'd their abuser I'd have said nothing at all

[tough pelican]

So why turn poor in!?

[queen elbow]

Yeah, though in all fairness, moral outlook aside, I'd be much more okay with the "turn him in" ending if the game offered more of a follow up to it. As it is, he gets arrested off screen and that's it. Nothing of value ever really comes up from it.

[versed vector]

LOOL NOT THE EMOTE OF HIS FACEEEEE LOLO

[tough pelican]

That’s a face that’s currently in immense emotional suffering because of your decision. Shame!

[versed vector]

yeah ,,,like..gimme the dlc where we go to court and i say it was self defense i saved the wwizarding world so stheckup and let him go

[tough pelican]

As his sister once told Sebastian: “you’ve made your choice!”

A Slytherin betraying one of our own like that, I am appalled!

[queen elbow]

I'd even be okay with him swearing vengeance upon us for betraying him as he gets hauled away. But nope, he just kinda vanishes and you're left with a hollow ending.

[versed vector]

but theres something the sister saw in the uncle to care that he was killed though..theres always 2 sides if not more to a sstory

[tough pelican]

I actually don’t think he’d want revenge. I feel as though he’d just give up on life at that point.

[tough pelican]

I’m sure the Nazis saw something in Hitler too rolls eyes

[versed vector]

PFFFT I was like ominis,i wanted nothing to do with dark magic n what not,I was even like "can..if i use the ability chart that causes curses when i use other spells is that still ok?!" LOOL

[queen elbow]

Yeah that too. Frankly any type of ending with Sabastian would've been fine. Just let us see the consequences of our actions. Right now we don't know if he forgives us, understands us, gives up, or swears vengeance. He just vanishes.

[versed vector]

uhhh..lets...not compare rl atrocities with this...

[tough pelican]

“Nothing to do with Dark Magic”

proceeds to turn a man into an explosive barrel and blow him up all over his friends

While all we Dark Magicians need… Are two simple words to dispatch our enemies in a civil manner. We don’t need to resort to mutilating our enemies.

[versed vector]

oh those were fine because they were that deserved it ,LOL but i love the memes of "how is this unforgivable *clipof avada * but this is? * clip of you punting a body over and over into the ground like a ragdoll * isnt "

[queen elbow]

In all fairness, us turning people into explosive barrels and blowing them up is an irresponsibility on our part. The actual transfiguration spell is meant to be harmless.

[versed vector]

that was my go to tactic .loved it LOL

[red finch]

Gosh this channel got very green

Which as a SlytherClaw I’m 100% ok with

[versed vector]

i guess the idea that with the unforgivables-they cant defend themselves so its like cheap-but with regular spells for dueling,.you have a fair chance-technically

[queen elbow]

It's the equivalent of trusting a child with a sharpened pencil and trusting them with a knife. If the child chooses to stab someone with the pencil, that's their own fault. If they stab someone with a knife, then what else were you expecting them to use it for?

[versed vector]

LOOL im a slytherpuff

[versed vector]

LOOOL💯

[queen elbow]

Unforgivable curses are useless outside of what they were made for. Avada Kadavra is useless outside of murdering people. Crucio is useless outside of torturing someone. And Imperio is useless outside of forcing someone to your will.

[tough pelican]

Well we are trying to defend our fellow Slytherin Sebastian from those who would see him suffer!

[queen elbow]

We're also the empathetic house, so I think we're the best ones to serve as a character witness. lol

[red finch]

Sebby and Ominis are precious and anyone who tries to break them and their wonderful friendship apart is a heretic and should be thrown in the Broken Banishing Cabinet

[versed vector]

I rebuke this and see all the pain Sebastian kept dragging Ominis through and have vowed to protect him hence forth ;o

[tough pelican]

Tell that to @versed vector

[versed vector]

yes it was deff a family problem..man I never really thought about how the situation might seem to someone outside of slytherin if they think that deep anyway xD

[tough pelican]

I mean, your character, Seb and Ominis are quite literally the dream team

[versed vector]

nah >_> I didn't see it like that. without knowing how the ending would have played out I saw it as a co dependent - dangerous relationship based off of red flags and i just had to be protective .

[queen elbow]

I was honestly shocked when I learned the whole adventure with Seb and Ominis was not Slytherin exclusive. I was just thinking, "How the hell does this make sense for a Gryffindor??"

[red finch]

Best Trio

I just want them all to be happy and go to the Three Broomsticks together for Butterbeer 😭😭😭

[versed vector]

im not the "my bro just killed someone n broke the law....cool :"D...bbf4lyfe" person ,I was like "ahshytherewegoagain"

[tough pelican]

Dlc plz?

[queen elbow]

I mean, by that point we'd already gone that far with them. From my perspective we might as well ride or die it.

[versed vector]

ahahaha!!!! yeah i though thtat it was replaced with other characters honestly,like the tryptic art part,but after that i was like theres no way they 'filmed' a whole set of cutscenes and quests just to cater to other houses..."

[tough pelican]

I’m playing Gryffindor on my first go around. Then I’m doing the house my test gave me, Slytherin. Just wanted to see a Slytherin and Gryffindor working together

[versed vector]

!!!??? SO YOURE A FALSE SLYTH QUESTIONING MY SLYTHNESS?!!!

[tough pelican]

No my test gave me Slytherin

[versed vector]

lmao jk

[tough pelican]

I was ready to go cray cray

[versed vector]

did you not take the pottermore test? or is that where you got gryf from

im missing one last relationship side quest but theres literally nothing on my maps where tf is it D;

[queen elbow]

Did you finish the main story?

[versed vector]

yeah

[queen elbow]

Do you still have sidequests to do?

[versed vector]

no ;-; thats why im confused

it just says 31/32 on my challange sheet

[queen elbow]

Did you talk to Poppy in the cafeteria and Natty in the hospital?

Cause if you have...I think I know what the problem is...

[red finch]

Excuse me, cafeteria?

🤣

[queen elbow]

Dining hall. Excuse me for no' knowin' m' Bri'ish atoll.

[versed vector]

yes i did talk to natty in her lil wheel chair

[tough pelican]

No I took the test and I was Slytherin

[tough pelican]

It’s called the GREAT HALL!

“Cafeteria.”

Ugh

[versed vector]

hmmm poppy...ive been through the entire castle n havent a thing to say to anyone

[queen elbow]

Those idiots actually made the "turn Seb in" ending worse than I thought. lol

[versed vector]

oh,so i wont get the last quest w/o seb :O? so i wont ever be able to finish my challenge log xD? haha

[tough pelican]

Why’s that?

[queen elbow]

If you choose to not turn Sabastian in, there will be one final quest in the great hall where Sabastian thanks you and swears to turn over a new leaf. I didn't know turning him in would deny you that final relationship quest.

[tough pelican]

There’s also another after that where you talk in the undercroft and reflect on the friendship

[queen elbow]

That one! That's gotta be what's missing!

[tough pelican]

Was hoping Ominis was there but oh well

[wanton apex]

Bro I told Sebastion I know a goblin and he got mad

[red finch]

It doesn’t.

If you turn him in, you tell Ominis after the funeral.

He says he’ll tell Seb and send you an owl later

Which he does eventually

[tough pelican]

You deserve it if you turned him in!

[wanton apex]

Please tell me it wont affect my progress towards getting avada early

[versed vector]

ah ok ,yeah i mean its what i chose so im not regretting it story wise but thats a bit unfair completionist wise ,like ill never get an in game reward because of it lmao-they could have very easily made one with ominis or sumthin

[tough pelican]

If you turned him in, say bye to Avada

[wanton apex]

No I just told him that I knew a goblin

[tough pelican]

Oh then you’re good

[queen elbow]

that doesn't affect anything

[wanton apex]

And he got pissed

[tough pelican]

Um. I’m post game and looking for Ominis and Sebastian. Where are they

[queen elbow]

Sabastian is in the Undercroft. Ominis is just kinda wandering around.

[tough pelican]

I don’t see him?

[red finch]

You will

Whether you turn him in or not, there’s one more quest called In the shadow of Friendship where you talk to either Seb or Ominis in the Undercroft and have a chat.

That’s the last mission of Sebs storyline.

[tough pelican]

Is it because I learned all the curses already?

[versed vector]

oh really??..i..have been in there and noone is there? let me go again maybe i didnt go after an owl or sumthin ,does it not show up on the map??

[red finch]

You need to wait to get a owl from him first that starts the quest

[queen elbow]

In that case, just keep doing stuff until an owl appears.

[red finch]

It won’t show up on the map until you get an owl, try fast travelling a few times and waiting

[wanton apex]

I have every spell but avada level 23 here, will I get avada at 24? Or like 28?

[tough pelican]

28 I believe

[queen elbow]

You'll get it depending on your choices near the end of the game. Your level doesn't matter

[versed vector]

ah ok! maybe i got the owl and hadnt gone since or was like "ill go in a min" and got distracted with completing map stuff that i forgot

[tough pelican]

I got avada before I finished the story. First one I used it on was Rookwood

[wanton apex]

How was that?

[queen elbow]

You'll either get Avada either just before the final few quests or after the main story, again depending on your choices in Sabastian's questline.

[tough pelican]

I got to level 28, learned avada, then used it on Rookwood

[wanton apex]

Im curious if he gets one tapped

[tough pelican]

Poetic to die from the curse given to me by the same dude who’s sister he cursed

[wanton apex]

I hope to get avada tonight. Gunna be grinding dark arts and side quests. I’m pretty evil too on my decisions

[versed vector]

oh haha i did get the owl to meet him xD but yeah i bet i was like "ok ill go in a min" and never did haha

[wanton apex]

Whenever I see a Sebastion owl I always go so fast

[queen elbow]

If you want to get Avada Kadava you'll need to do Sabastian's questlines, but he's the most tied to the main story. So simply grinding out sidequests won't guarantee you'll get it.

[versed vector]

i got an owl from him saying to meet him,i wanna say i already did this because im in there now and ominis isnt showing up :/

[tough pelican]

WAIT I just found a quest with OMINIS!! It’s where you get a lesson from the friar! Yes!

Idk if this is something I should’ve done earlier but idc. Adds to the bleak ending imo

[versed vector]

i dont ave "shadow of friendship" on my completed list tho...this i sodd

[wanton apex]

That’s good to know, I just completed “In the shadow of the mine”

[versed vector]

wait i do have it

yeah i have "shadow of friendship" completed,but still 31/32 on relationship/sidequests xD

[red finch]

Then you must have another side quest missing.

Have you done all the treasure map ones?

Maybe check a list of all the side quests and go through it in comparison to your completed quests, see what you’re missing

[versed vector]

i would assume so but you know what let me look at my letters maybe i put one off but ..wouldnt it still be in my list of unfinished? or you mean i havnt found the letter/chest with the map in it yet

yeah.imma bout to do that now ~

[red finch]

The treasure map ones you need to find the map to start

[wanton apex]

I’m curious, does anyone know what the ancient magic hotspots actually do? I did a lot of them and haven’t noticed anything but one extra slot for my ancient magic

[versed vector]

you answered you question :D ahaha

[versed vector]

by completing them ,you'll max out at 5 bars

[wanton apex]

So how many equals an extra bar?

[queen elbow]

Yup, the collectibles are designed to get you all the necessary rewards without having to hunt all of them down. Unfortunately this means that completionists will collect everything for nothing more than the sake of it.

[versed vector]

i honestly couldnt say,you;ll have to read your challenge log n see how many til the next number/upgrade

[wanton apex]

Ohhhh good idea haha 😂 thanks

[versed vector]

and you know....i really though that sebastian would be inspired by isidora and like...try to get me to take the pain out of anne that way o_o

[tough pelican]

Then you really would’ve killed him yourself instead of ratting him out

[loud heart]

Ugh I collect field page from transfiguration courtyard, in Sphinix statue, but why I cant have lv up?

[tough pelican]

Why is this game so damn good?

Like I haven’t played something that genuinely gave me a good feeling since like 10 years ago

[merry monolith]

ikr, i never play the game after i finished it, but this one, I already start new game in hard difficulty as a slytherin

haunted hogsmeade also very cool!

[zenith abyss]

That’s one of my favorite quest! But they need to fix Penny LOL

[merry monolith]

knight to H3!!! omg i almost screamed

[honest karma]

@zenith abyss the windows I mentioned are definately the ones that change saw theem in winter and they're blue hidden leaves nad leafless trees

[zenith abyss]

This is a great follow up, thank you so much!

[honest karma]

more visible in the day when you have the trunks stand out but even at night you can see the change in colour especially clearly in winter

[zenith abyss]

Too bad we can’t post screenshots so you can share your findings!

[honest karma]

yep

[unique aurora]

My missing one was well well well

[versed vector]

i have that one haha. sadly i have to go to bed soon so i will look at my list tmrw afterwork with an online full list to compare haha

[honest karma]

I finished that one easily by sheer coincidence was doing another quest and stumbled on the end point

[merry monolith]

mine also coincidence while doing another quest, when the MC got near a tree, there's a dialogue "this tree looks intriguing" or something like that

[honest karma]

yep same here

another amusing one for me was the spider quest. Walk up on this abandoned bewebbed hamlet, spiders burst out of the ground.

My character: "It's like a place out of a story book."
Me; "What the censored kind of story books am I reading?"

[tough pelican]

That’s my exact plans. Hard difficulty, Slytherin (the house I got on the quiz) and no HUD

I just hope so bad that there’s some kind of dlc

[honest karma]

no hud make nad no quest markers make a huge difference to the game

[zenith abyss]

Yah that’s similar to what I did for my 3rd and 4th Alts

[merry monolith]

wah this makes more immersive to the game

[versed vector]

WAIT!!!! I DONT THINK I HAVE THAT ONE ,i was confusing it w/a different quest and i had been reading lists over n over that i thought i read it on my list [using a website that lets me check off things as i complete them] and i opened the game up to check and i dont have wellwellwell !!

[honest karma]

i also prefer having ot figure out where to go as opposed to a dotted line showing it

[zenith abyss]

I did keep the enemy target Hp on tho so I knew what I was hitting

[versed vector]

i thought of alls well that ends bell

i remember hearing about a well that had more to it than one would think or w/e?? but nothing ever happened when i tried to mess with it that was waaay early on in the game

[honest karma]

Different well I think. Theres the one in Hogsmeade that tells you some wells are more than just water dispensers but there's at least one (I still haven't finished the game) well elsewhere that gives you a quest

[tough pelican]

For the better I hope?

[honest karma]

I prefer it

[tough pelican]

You seem to have played the game quite a bit. Do you see Sebastian & Ominis after the “in the shadow of friendship” quest? Or is that it? You don’t even see them walking around or?

[versed vector]

so,i looked up wellwellwell and its not familiar at /all/ so i think you may be on yto something,though sadly i dont have a quest marker on the map in the area it claims to be...but...imma go check it out anyway

[honest karma]

I think it got triggered by a discussion with an NPC, was a winter quest if I remember right

[unique aurora]

I followed butterflies then it popped up

Next to a bandit camp

[zenith abyss]

They still walk around the school post main story. Sometimes together sometimes alone. Usually can find them walking around the lower level of the astronomy tower/building.

[unique aurora]

The well chokes on a piece of paper that ends up being a treasure map quest

[zenith abyss]

It’s a well that will talk to you!

[versed vector]

ooo,ok i will fly around and see thank you so much~

[honest karma]

Like I said i recall a npc in aranshire directing me towards it

[unique aurora]

Probably multiple ways to find it

[versed vector]

yeeey found it thank you!!!!!

[zenith abyss]

I would suggest flying southeast of Aranshire (the place that has the spider infestation)… oop you found it as I was typing this lol

[honest karma]

With regards of talents I've seen you get 35 and can't take 12, however there's 48 talents in the game and 48 - 35 = 13. So is it 12 or 13 talents you don't have enough for anyone know?

[tough pelican]

Oh so the games actually persistent like that

[versed vector]

😂

[honest karma]

so random question if you were able to choose would you want the protego shield we have or one of the persistent red, yellow or purple ones the npc's get?

[zenith abyss]

After the House Cup all the NPCs are back to doing their regular routines (unless you turned seb in). Like I was happy I ran into Lucan this afternoon while doing some chest hunting by the depulso map wall. I wish I could interact with them but it’s what it is. Still nice to see them going about their days.

[honest karma]

I'd like to know who told Sirona I broke into someone's basement, || I gave the guy a random tentacula I had on me||

[unique aurora]

12 i believe

[honest karma]

well that makes it easy I'm not taking the dark arts and I don't like hte idea of stupify doing damage so no dark arts, no stupify expertise and no 2nd wiggenweld potency thanks

[unique aurora]

I skipped all stealth and room of requirement except 1 each

Did full spells and core with 8/10 dark arts

10-8-16-1-1

[honest karma]

I suspect most will btu I don't want dark arts on this character. Wiggenweld 1 will nearly fill the bar and like I said stupify is specifcally not to hurt the target so I don't want that doing damage.

[unique aurora]

Why not make it do damage? Its to protect u

[honest karma]

lore. Its a non-lethal stunning spell the idea of it hurting the target displeases me.

[unique aurora]

It stuns them to "sleep"😂

[honest karma]

fair justification but its also one of the easiest things for me to pass up

its why i was hoping it was 12 spells not sure what else I'd give up maybe the mandrake stun or confrgo mastery

[unique aurora]

In normal with almost max stats and the right gear setup reflecting their attack and using stupefy is enough to best most enemies

I had to up it to hard

[honest karma]

i'm not after the combat challenge and boss swarms tend to kill me anyway so happy on normal
Then again I've not spent any talents on spell upgrades nor am I using potions/plants right now. Probably should

[keen yoke]

What are the three glowing cubes at brocburrow for? It was confusing me. I thought it was for the Merlin trial. But it’s actually the ball that solves it

[dusk garnet]

I'm not much of a fighter so I'm playing on easy, I'm more zbout the looking and finding

[honest karma]

@keen yoke Don't know for sure as i've not really been there but I know some treasure vaults need glowing cubes placed on teh right spots to open them is there a vault nearby?

[keen yoke]

Ohh

Yes there is. Thanks

[honest karma]

you're welcome

[tough pelican]

They really should’ve made it so we can take them with us in quests to help fight enemies

At least Seb and Ominis are still friends. FOR SOME OF US. To those who turned him in, shame shame. Everybody does in fact know your name.

[loud heart]

Help I cant lv 31 up after I get field guide in sphynix room, the number symbol didnt show up and the number page field didnt added.

I cant get xp

[honest karma]

It would make more sense to have your "friends along"

@loud heart check your information there are more field pages than you need for the challenges and after you hit hte max there you'll keep finding them.

[unique aurora]

The 150 field guides are accio only i believe, the rest are collected in other ways

[unique aurora]

Definitely turned him in, he was annoying. Ravenclaw in me had to learn the spells for knowledge sake, after that he was useless. Natty and poppy are better fighters

[bleak moth]

Hi guys, I missed Avada Kedavra on Sebastian quest… there is another chance to get the spell???

[unique aurora]

I dont think so, idk for sure tho. I got it the first time

If you havent progressed too far you could load a previous save @bleak moth

[bleak moth]

Lol

So you can decide to don’t learn the spell 4 EVER and ever after this quest

Nice

[honest karma]

I've heard if you don't abuse him you can learn it later as long as you don't ||turn him in||

[unique aurora]

All of the unforgivables are a one time do or dont learn i think. Google isnt being very helpful

If players select either of the other options in this dialogue they won't learn the spell but be given a second opportunity to learn it later by meeting Sebastian in the Undercroft.

Guess there is a second chance if you dont turn him in. My bad

Bro stole my kill tho, that is what's really unforgivable. He had to pay

[hallow pond]

It'd e a really cool mechanic where if you held the input for a spell you'd cast a stronger variation for more cooldown on some spells. Like bombarda to bombarda maxima. The blasting curse confringo for fiendfyre and such. I don't know what other varieties of spells could be used for extended input but I'd love to hear suggestions.

[unique aurora]

Kinda like overdraw in horizon forbidden west? Longer you draw the bow the more power it has

[hallow pond]

Yup. I was trying to think of more spell forms for a hold input but those are the only that come to mind.

[unique aurora]

Either that or a simpler version involving traits, instead of bombarda mastery change it to bombarda maxima unlock

Essentially the same as they have it but with a name change

[honest karma]

@hallow pond Could work with the talents unlock strong suggested, get the incendio talent and you can tap for a fire blast or hold for the ring effect

[loud heart]

@honest karma thank you, after I go in main story, I can get xp again

[honest karma]

Glad I could help

[loud heart]

Avalanche should fix it. It makes us miss xp... If we didnt go trough main story

[honest karma]

there's a couple of bugs usually tied to people getting to things one way or another before they're meant to e.g. rescuing a cage of mooncalves before you get the quest to save one of them breaks the quest

[loud heart]

Ah that was old bugs. Then they should not give us option to unlock it in the first place

[honest karma]

i think they expected people to follow the quests more than exploring given how much they unlock

[loud heart]

Yeah but some people like wandering too

And collect money like me

[honest karma]

learning experience for everyone got to do some housework now see you later

[loud heart]

See you and thank you

[bleak moth]

unfortunately I have too many loading saves after this quest

any help? 😦

[hallow pond]

I hope their next game we get multiple world locations slightly similar to dragon age inquisition. Going between britain, america, asia africa and such. It would be really be cool. And perhaps like a wanted system of sorts where if a muggle witnesses you use magic you have to ||kill|| obliviate them.

[upbeat stone]

If you've turned him in, then nothing you can do 🤷‍♀️

[bleak moth]

Nope, I don’t send him to jail… it is good ?

[cinder lotus]

Anyone else feel disappointed by the quest where you get your own shop? Penny said originally you could sell a variety of items. You can literally only sell gear. It wasn’t worth all the annoyance of dealing with the poltergeist to get it.

[upbeat stone]

You'll meet him in the Undercroft again and get a chance to learn the spell one last time. After that its over.

[bleak moth]

Thanks ahaha

[quasi glen]

Sebastian: I promise I'll be better
Also Sebastian 30 Seconds Later: Oh you'd like to learn an unforgivable curse? I'll teach you don't worry

[hallow pond]

I don't think him teaching you the spells conflict with his promise to be better. I don't think he's going to stop using dark magic, but I thi k he's going to be more mindful of using it.

[honest karma]

I'm breeding thestrals for a missiona dn while I wait tehre'ss a mooncalf just standing here watching me

and nwo the toads have joined it

[feral locust]

You must be getting sleepy lol

[honest karma]

I am wondering if I could have ignored Everett and just gone back to teh start point to end the first flying mission

[verbal jay]

Daaaamn it's frustrating tot wait for those dang shiny unicorns (unique unicorns) to appear.....

I do the time-skip, save and reload method btw. I'm up to 36 unicorns without a single shiny, in a row

I feel like someone cast crucio on me.

[zenith abyss]

I don’t think so because he is the one that teaches you how to speed up on the broom 🧹

[honest karma]

Annoying,

On another note I've seen videos with potting tables in the vivariums does that unlock later or is it a mod?

[limpid shoal]

Hey guys! My friend told me there is a secret ending (I haven't finished the game yet), how do you get it? 😄

[zenith abyss]

Mod talk is no no here. But yes it’s not normal function LOL. Same with clipping the vivarium conjurations

[zenith abyss]

Get to lvl 34 and a new yellow quest will show up

[honest karma]

I'm not asking how to get one as I'm console just wanted to know if it was something I can do in game later for placement purposes, thanks guess I'll have a stinky dung composter in my living area

[limpid shoal]

That's it? Nothing else to complete such as secondary quests/merling trials/demiguises and so on?

[zenith abyss]

Yah it’s only a PC thing. 🫠 I’m on PS5 so I know the feels 😂

[zenith abyss]

Yep! It should show up after you do the quest for professor Weasley (after the main story)

[honest karma]

seriously who thought "we shall give the players these wide open grassland/other areas but force them to grow plants and compost animal dung inside

[limpid shoal]

Alright!! Thanks Elio! 😄

[zenith abyss]

Have you decorated the vivarium much? I have only done the interiors. I kind of wanna make cute cottages but I really wish we could do free placement like PC players do

[zenith abyss]

YW! Enjoy the quest when you get there!!

[honest karma]

still missing a lot of stuff and I wasn't sure how much would unlock or rearrange itself with playing. So I've been holding off on serious decoration. I am annoyed at all the things I can't put up against the wall so even with "free" placement they're out a bit.

I suppose the dung composters were we're meant to go to the toilet as we can't summon those or baths/beds etc for a quick kip and freshen up while waiting for stuff to brew/grow

[verbal jay]

pls pls pls spawn this time you dumb unicorn

[honest karma]

I'll just be over there where my bad luck with RNG wont affect you

[verbal jay]

I've gone through what seems like almost 2 full inventories. I also heard horror stories of people who had to go through 3-4 hours

And others who got it on their 2-3rd restart D:

[honest karma]

why I hate rng I can spend years trying to get something I want for looks/lore and get nowhere, people who trash it as not mechanically worthwhile get it first time through. Give me a system where rng is faster but even a failed attempt earns you points/currency you can eventually use to buy anything you could get via rng

[verbal jay]

I agree D:

At least in Minecraft, even if it takes a long time to get diamonds, you still constantly get xp from mining

and other materials that you didn't think of but turns out are very useful and desirable

[honest karma]

yep

[zenith abyss]

Yah I remember decorating hardcore early levels to only be annoyed that the room changed more than once and ate all my decorations. LOL

The compost things are definitely ugly.

[verbal jay]

Eff I miss minecraft, my fav game and now I am starting to remember some of the reasons why ❤️

(Wow, you can't even write the F word on this server lmao.)

[honest karma]

I'm waiitng till end game should be fully upgraded then and I can sort things better. Might delete the composter entirely it only adds 1 to product so not that valuble.

Kind of conflicted feelings watching playthroughs of people loving playing teh game and missing things I know about like the daily prophet articles or being able to put the robe hoods up and down

[verbal jay]

People who swar all the time just to swear are immature, but people who censor any swear word are even more immature. They seem like they can't take a wee lil bad lang nawwww babbbies im sorry about thaaaatw. Booohoooo.

It's so funny to me that kinda stuff haha

[honest karma]

yet to find any playthrough where they realize you can go back to talk to teh teachers as the game progresses and find out more about them.

Fully convinced Miranda took out the previous teacher to get her position

[verbal jay]

Only thing I need to 100% (in my opinion, as my 100% goes beyond what the game thinks it is) is every treasure vault, the last missions (not Ranrok, already did that) and this last shiny breeding

[verbal jay]

I LOVE that detail!!!!!

[honest karma]

I'm only up to winter so much more to explore on my first playthrough but I should head to bed work tommorow

[zenith abyss]

Yes it’s always good to talk to them between assignments. You can learn a lot about their backgrounds and backstory

[verbal jay]

It seems a lot of people just don't care about any kind of lore or story though, especially if it's longer to get into or only text based and only consider the actual game part of games the combat and moving around things on the screen stuff. They're like neanderthals that just cannot extend their horizon even the slightest...

I can't even get this shiny before i have to head to work... yikes.

Why can't the unicorn den have like 2-3 creatures anyway 😢

[red finch]

Because unicorns are elusive in lore

[zenith abyss]

Do you just stay in the same spot and manipulate time? Or do you physically change maps?

[verbal jay]

at this point this is such a hassle that I don't care D': Just give me 2-3 at a time for one day pweeees

[verbal jay]

It's enough to time-skip, save and reload the save.

[honest karma]

I'm watching a couple who love exploring the game they just haven't figured out about the prophet or teachers as its not obvious

[verbal jay]

In that order. It works for EVERY creature. It's been tested and verified.

And it's actually the fastest way too. This is just me having extremely bad luck.

[zenith abyss]

And it’s working right, like you’re indeed noticing a variation in gender etc?

[verbal jay]

Yep.

[zenith abyss]

Ahh ok. So it’s just RNG gods not in ur favor

[verbal jay]

it also took a huge amount of time with the graphorn, but it doesn't feel like it was THIS long.

That was more like 1 hour and 30 minutes maybe. Maybe shorter I dunno.

this I feel like I've been doing for closer to 2 hours????? Or maybe I am wrong too and my perception of the flow of time is crap atm.

[zenith abyss]

Maybe try a different shirt. Or hairstyle 💇🏽‍♂️

[verbal jay]

I've had to delete some, so these are not all I've caught.

But I have about 40-50 unicorns in my nabsack atm

nvm I have 38 atm

[zenith abyss]

Time to visit miss peck and change your look

[verbal jay]

But I've had at least 100 so far. Also I already love my look. He looks like me, just younger (and by extension more handsome). By the way, is your pfp Markiplier? EDIT: NVm it's not

My eyesight is poor especially when the image is small. But I clicked on your profile and it was def not lol.

[zenith abyss]

No it’s my mid journey generated pfp

[verbal jay]

Aha okay.

[zenith abyss]

Like the ai made me into a young Joseph Gordon Levit in Hogwarts uniform

[verbal jay]

I wonder what Colin Morgan would look like as a Hogwarts student

[zenith abyss]

@verbal jay are u just gonna stay up until u get a shiny unicorn and then go to work?

[verbal jay]

nah i have to stop after this one

No shiny... 😢

[zenith abyss]

Im sorry 😦

Can I DM you?

[versed vector]

I've been gaming since I can remember so going back and seeing if NPCs have anything to say or tell me is like..secondhand nature. "Oh I completed this?? Let's see if they say something to me about it." Plus revelio every 15 mins or so haha. But w.o reading your entire conversation and possibly missing this already being said: I think this game is alottttt of peopels first ever video game,I know that may seem wild but I'm in some groups and have noticed some responses on other social media and it seems to be the case for alot of people ahah. I've seen playthroughs where people do revelio and they ...dont turn their camera around to see if anything is glowing /hinted ;_; they think they'll just always hear a chime or something . I've commented on so many videos w helpful tips I feel I'm doing community service ahahah xD but yeah~

[vivid gust]

[mystic snow]

When does it change to spring? Just completed the third trial and it's still winter.

[versed vector]

Once you've pretty much beat the game. It's the last season

[iron wagon]

Mine changed after I defeated lognok

And sure that was in trial 3 when i defeated him

[versed vector]

You..fought lodgok.?

[iron wagon]

Yeah that he name lmao

[versed vector]

Is that a separate side path from choices o_o??? I've was my friend the entire game

[versed vector]

Do you maybe mean the main character,his brother,ranrok? Ahhaha

[iron wagon]

No The evil goblin

[versed vector]

Ok ahaha thought so xD I wa like man if you don't trust him the story mad changes!! Ahah

[iron wagon]

Hahaha

That mission was hard tho took me 2 days to complete it on hard lmao

[tough pelican]

Ohh somebody ought to turn you in!

[mystic snow]

So there are no more main quests left after it turns to spring?

[iron wagon]

Noo only side missions, unless a dls comes out with more main quests

[tough pelican]

Which they better

[mystic snow]

They should have changed to spring after the third trial wtf I don’t wanna wear this fur coat anymore lol

[tough pelican]

I stuck with my Hogwarts robes just wore the buttoned ones

Didn’t change into full wizarding gear until the end. I felt the 5th year had something to prove before he could be considered a formidable foe rather than a student.

[viral river]

ok only two field guides pages left in hogwarts. There are no field guide pages in the own common room, right?

[red finch]

Nope

Which areas are you missing them?

There’s a bugged on in the Bell Tower region, a flying page above the gardens outside that doesn’t count when picked up

[viral river]

yeah we wrote about this yesterday :)
But nevertheless I need to find one more page then

I dont know where it could be. I was I believe everywhere in the castle at this point

[red finch]

Which area is it missing from? You can see how many field guide pages are in each area by hovering over the marker for that area (Astronomy Tower, Bell Tower, Grand Staircase etc)

[viral river]

Oh interesting, the collection says 149/150

[viral river]

oh what? I did not know that hahaa

[red finch]

So it should just be the bugged Bell Tower page then lol

That didn’t count towards the total because it’s bugged

[viral river]

astronomy tower region

[red finch]

Yeah it also shows how many of the collection chests in that area you’ve gotten and Demiguise statures (if there are any)

[viral river]

its weird because I collected the field guide page at the three trolls portrait an hour ago and I am 99% sure, that I already collected it weeks ago when discovering the room of req.
Maybe it didnt save right

[viral river]

ok I dont find the last page in the astronomy tower region

maybe google can show me all in that area

[red finch]

The Alston only tower area is more than just the Astronomy tower itself.

And of the floo flames in that area count as part of it.

It could be anywhere within the vicinity of those floo flames.

[viral river]

https://screenrant.com/hogwarts-legacy-astronomy-wing-field-guide-page-locations/ I go throug all the locations now

[viral river]

oh boy I made it. i was missing page 23.

in the alchemy class I had to look to the roof and then ignite that thing

now 149/150 because of the bug I guess

[potent egret]

@viral river google hogwarts Revelio page list someone on Reddit made a list of all the pages, cross reference it with the ones you have.

I just got the last of mine. Now I’m stuck with one configuration left and I can’t find it!!!! Uggggh this game

[versed vector]

I believe we will get the haunted store quest after 1 yr if we didn't get it w.collectors edition but hopefully they shorten that because a whole yr??!! I pray they do more w.this game i hope hwl 2 is an expansion and not just a whole new game I wanna keep my character and vivariums, money, friendships etc~

[versed vector]

See I've had that happen to me too where I'll pick up letters I've already picked up and whatnot ahah and I do revelio like an addict and I'll be like "I know i did it here why is this page just now showing up"

[tough pelican]

That’s the first thing I’ve heard you say that I agree with.

[versed vector]

Lmao,I love how you'll just choose to be my rival from this point on lmao

[tough pelican]

Until you break Sebastian out of Azkaban, yes.

[versed vector]

AHAHAHHA

[dusk garnet]

Finally 80 hrs, 100% mostly just a few building parts missing and it's the most enjoyable game I've played in ages, there are a few bits I wasn't keen on like the crypt tunnels and the comments about ashlanders over and over but generally can't complain 😀 good job guys who made it. Can't wait for the next one

[twilit hull]

@torpid lark answering here for spoiler reasons

1. Different vendors around the world.
2. Completing challenges involving poping balloons

[verbal jay]

Sure. Btw, still no shiny, I feel like I went through another 20-30 LOL

Gonna sell them all now.

[zenith abyss]

Hopefully it won’t be another 2 hours of nothing

[cinder lotus]

Anyone else feel disappointed by the quest where you get your own shop? Penny said originally you could sell a variety of items. You can literally only sell gear. It wasn’t worth all the annoyance of dealing with the poltergeist to get it.

[zenith abyss]

I thought the same based on her dialogue that I would be able to sell beast products and other mats that I have overstock of. I was disappointed too that it is just gear. I actually really enjoyed that fight and quest so no complaints there. The issue I have with Penny is if she’s cleaning the wall by the door and you sell to her, and you tab out of her screen, you get put outside of the shop 😂 or if she’s selling to you by the back room, it pushes the avatar in the corner of the back 😅

[versed vector]

When natty gets kidnapped,there was a guy in the hog pub saying "hehe nosey lil student got what they deserved" or sumthin and I went.. excuse me?? And I started hitting him with my wand [no actual spells just general attacks] and it pushed/glitched his body out of thr pub through a wall,like he evaporated,and i laughed and went outside and he wasn't out there and me and my friend were laughing SO hard I said "WELL SERVES HIM RIGHT LOOL"

[zenith abyss]

Starting bar fights I see 🤣

[cinder lotus]

I hate mannequins so that quest was a pure nightmare for me lol

[verbal jay]

I just read this, and just after going back and doing the reload trick, IT WAS FINALLY THERE

Now for the other gender... Jk. Maybe some day??? ;P

[zenith abyss]

Glad you finally got it

[verbal jay]

Is there an achievement connected with getting shinies? Like if I rescue one specimen of both genders of every animals, them being shinies too, I get a special achievement on steam???

[pseudo compass]

I only need one more side quest before finishing the challenge for it, but I don't know how to activate it? I have only 1 story mission left and want to get the challenges done before finishing the game. No story spoilers pls! I think it's the conclusion to Ominis' and Sebastien's story line.

[zenith abyss]

Some of those are locked behind finishing the main story

[pseudo compass]

Ohh okay

Thank you! I guess I'll finish the story first then 🙂

[versed vector]

💯🤣

[versed vector]

The best way to see is Google a completed name list of quests but the main one people seem to be missing at the end is one titled "well well well" was for me too ahah

[unique aurora]

That page is most likely flying above the beasts classroom or above the greenhouse

[verbal jay]

It's really annoying that you can't have one animal of each color and one shiny of both genders and each kind of colored offspring, for every single animal (besides the phoenix) spread out across all the vivariums. It just doesn't add up mathematically...

12 animal species excluding the phoenix. 4 vivariums is the max vivariums you can have. 3/12=3

I guess i can use the inventory, and have the shinies in the vivariums or something

Meaning between all four vivariums, you can only have 3 of each species in a vivarium if you want it to be all equal

Wait... are there some species that have a smaller selection of different colors/visual variations than other ones???

[pliant drift]

I wish after you beat ranrock, you go back to the keepers and they say something about you defeating him, and you hold the secret now and they disappear

[versed vector]

I went to a camp of enemies ,ashwinders,after I defeated Rockwood and they said lines like "I'll avenge him!" Or "can't believe you defeated him" along those lines,but I haven't gone around the goblin areas

[versed vector]

I know..I so desperately want atleast 1 more,like a brighter forest one or something u unno just another one but also at the very least 6 instead of 4 species ;_; I have an inv full of both gendered shiny versions of all except Phoenix unicorn and graphorn

[radiant spindle]

Same. And it’s takes so much time going around the place. That quest and Niamh’s trial to a lesser degree are the reason why I don’t want to do another play through. Yah, it’s interesting, but dreadful for me.

[versed vector]

I didn't have the hogsmead one but I liked niamhs ;0 I liked the design and the story of it,the fact it was diff than the other ones then they rewarded us with a very quick last trial xD ahaha

[verbal jay]

There is only ||one single Phoenix in the entire game|| (animal spoilers). You know this, right? Just checking.

So you don’t get disappointed I mean. You decide go read at your own peril

[umbral compass]

||Is House Cup the last quest of the game?||

[potent leaf]

Yes

[umbral compass]

After that I can still play around the map yea?

[feral locust]

yes

[umbral compass]

'right thanks ^^

[pliant drift]

Good to know

[tough pelican]

Sad isn’t it? When you reach the end… 😦

[versed vector]

oh i was pretty sure of that w/o checking it but didnt want to not list it incase anyone thought i was sayin i had a Hoenn phoenix shiny LOOL ,but thank you for making sure! but i guess anyone could then interpret that i have a shiny one to look out for by listing it ahaha ..ah well xD

[pearl root]

what does the ancient magic hotspots do?

[worthy prairie]

G’Day from Sydney! I had lots of fun doing the broom speed run on the quidditch pitch. What did people think of the first Quidditch trial? Anyone hit sub 1:40min?

Here’s my time - just under Imelda’s:
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1754730404

[iron locust]

Does sirius black and headmaster black are the same family ?

[versed vector]

they are both from the same black family yes~

[versed vector]

once youve gathered enough,you'll get more AM bars :] you can check in the challenges tab ,and you'll be able to keep track of how many you need for each extra bar~

[hollow gale]

I look forward to the extra wave of people that will be around having fun in 1 moth tbh xD

Ofc it'll probably be slow mode up to 1 minute again, but that'll just represent the eagerness of us potter fans xD

[pearl root]

Sebastian's uncle just killed me lmao

[versed vector]

g a m e o v e r

[pearl root]

game over for him now too 👀

[versed vector]

good!!! xD

[pearl root]

i mean i can't say i totally agree with what sebastian did but we are besties so

[versed vector]

you'll have a much harder,for some people,choice after that- i have you in my thoughts,lmaooo.

[pearl root]

i already know what that choice is and i ain't no snitch

[versed vector]

ahahaha , you've made your choice.

[pearl root]

yeah i got spoiled when i started and i already knew i wasn't going to turn him in. it's fine, mistakes happen, i can change him

[versed vector]

as long as that notion stays with a gaming character..and not rl xD ahahaha

"wot red flag?" 🙈

[pearl root]

depends

[versed vector]

ohlawdnoooooo

[pearl root]

suddenly i can't see the color red

[versed vector]

xD 💀

[pearl root]

i've loved sebastian from the start and i love the banter he has with the main character (they fr made his dialogue so flirty just for us to not be able to romance him smh)

||actually after that battle, yeah i'm fine with him killing his uncle, that man just soloed in on me and not the thousands of inferi surrounding us like let's deal with them first, then attack me sheesh||

[quiet harbor]

I think this should rather go in #‼-story-spoilers-‼

[versed vector]

I never saw any of the characters words as flirty whats so ever tbh lool i dont see romance in platonic day to day narratives ahaha ,but either way-yes hes a great character.

[worthy prairie]

Yes, but he’s the black sheep of the black family - if you recall from the books. No pun intended

[red finch]

I love their banter in the first catacombs trip

“They’re not insects”

“Don’t you start”

[zenith abyss]

“I’m not going to climb up these mountains in silence” || runs off charging the goblins ||
