[red finch]

You need to fully complete a challenge (as in unlock all the tier rewards for it) then you don’t earn any more xp from that challenge type

For example, once I defeat another 94 dark wizards and earn the last reward for defeating dark wizards I won’t gain any more xp from defeating them.

I’ve completed the defeat Dugbogs tiers so I don’t gain any more xp from defeating them

[rich prawn]

I can't decide what house miss Morganach should go into anything besides Hufflepuff would work well lol

[tawdry root]

first playthrough of the game. designed my character and everything.
only thing is, with the way I did it (complete coincidence) and the first memory in the pensive, I thought the story would go onto us being like — idk— Isidora’s reincarnation. 💀

with the side bun and the facial structure)

[topaz dagger]

SHE SO PRETTY 😍

[tawdry root]

thank you! 💛 took me a while to figure out, but that’s what ended up happening

[rich prawn]

Isadora did nothing wrong

[topaz dagger]

Except suck the emotions out of 11-year-olds, of course.

[rich prawn]

She's effectively making a cute for depression it's not going to be perfect immediately it will take time and trail and error

[topaz dagger]

But would you want your kid to be one of those "errors"? To have them come home a soulless husk that may as well have been attacked by a dementor?

[rich prawn]

Sacrifices in the name of science have to be made

[topaz dagger]

Again, would you want your kid to be one of those sacrifices? It's one thing if she only did it to seventeen-year-olds...who volunteered...but she didn't.

[rich prawn]

My previous message was indeed a response to your question

[topaz dagger]

So you'd be completely fine if your kid came home not even knowing or caring who you are, just so long as there could be a potential cure for depression?

[rich prawn]

The pursuit of science is paved with good intentions and bad results yes

[topaz dagger]

I hope you never have kids. Seriously.

[rich prawn]

Are you ok were discussing a fictional video game world and charecter magic isn't even real lol

[red finch]

She created a magical lobotomy

Not a cure.

Taking away all emotion is not a cure for depression

Also one’s ability to use magic is affected by emotional state.

She could have very well left people entirely unable to use magic again, looking at the state of her father.

[topaz dagger]

We're discussing ethical science, which applies to the real world.

[rich prawn]

Even the final keeper was interested in her magic and what it uncovered you can see him smiling and paying attention in the memories

[topaz dagger]

Didn't even think about that, but yes.

[rich prawn]

Step one is lobotomy step 2 is practical use

Air conditioning was made by the same company who made attack helicopters afterwards
The good comes later

[red finch]

He didn’t know what it did to people.

He’s also the first to discover that it leaves the person a husk.

And then realised the kind of danger she was.

And then wanted to protect the students from her. And killed her because she was simply too dangerous and mad with power.

[topaz dagger]

Honestly, I think San despised Isadora the most.

[rich prawn]

I agree with the idea he hopped on board with killing her afterwards to cover up his interest
Would be very Slytherin core

And again since you want to bring up irl air conditioning came from attack helicopters
The good comes later

[worthy thistle]

THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE THANK YOU!

[indigo loom]

If anyone that plays Hogwarts Legacy is at level 30 or below and has higher offensive stats than me, I'd like to know. Curious to learn and improve.

Can i see your stats? 👀

[muted widget]

This all I have for now

[rich prawn]

Doing hoodrat stuff with Sebastian

He's too white bro needs to go outside

[summer crane]

guys, i need help, i've accidentally bugged a mission

so I spoke to lodgok at the hog's head and left the game right after bc i was tired

upon coming back the helm of urtkot mission triggered

but lodgok is still at the hog's head and simply wont come to the witch's tomb

that's not how it's supposed to look right?

[summer crane]

nvm i fixed it

[worthy thistle]

So I’ve finished the main story and heard you have to complete the field pages to continue on with the story but then I’ve been told that you don’t have to to get the next part of the stories?

[shut marlin]

No, your Field Guide does not have to be 100% complete in order to take your OWLs

[rich prawn]

I hate this guy

[normal lantern]

Definitely Percy's ancestor lol

[shut marlin]

Literally

Like genuinely. He literally is.

[rich prawn]

What the scarecrow doing

[shut marlin]

Scaring crows

[rich prawn]

Oh my

[muted widget]

Heard that when scrope was talking to nearly headless nick close to the hospital wing

[muted widget]

Found my favorite place in the castle

[unreal echo]

yeahhhhh that room is epic!!! 👻

[rich prawn]

How fast could I learn flipendo probably by fall earliest right

[feral locust]

I think fall but it's curse dark magic ability is available from level 5
Interesting

[indigo loom]

LOL I posted something about this a while ago

[unreal echo]

nice catch lol

[rich prawn]

It is weird flippendo is a below level 5 curse ability but you don't get it to fall lol

[rich prawn]

My evil wizard granddaughter of morganarch has made it to the first trial boss fight at the intended level of 11 and damn this is actually difficult at its intended level lol

[rich prawn]

Like a true Slytherin I'm going to let the troll handle this

[blazing grotto]

That’s just smart. Only a Gryffindor would go out and challenge all of them.

[rich prawn]

Rate my dark wizard fit

[red finch]

Cobalt Debonair Ensemble superior.

As is the Embossed Tailcoat, though I put that on my Slytherin boy along with the Aristocratic Ensemble lol

The Embellished Cobalt Overcoat also goes really well with the Cobalt Debonaire Ensemble and fits the female model better than the Embossed Tailcoat in my personal opinion.

[rich prawn]

I'll look into that coat I don't want anything too blue since I am Slytherin lol

[muted widget]

Second playthrough as a gryffindor(mainly started for the trophy) but I really enjoyed the headless hunt quest

[rich prawn]

You missed the perfect excuse to try Slytherin second playthrough evil run lol

[muted widget]

I'm saving that for the last trophy

[rich prawn]

Are you aware if any outside the map glitches still work on switch?
For the charecter I'm playing as it would actually be pretty good to have the ravenclaw coat

[muted widget]

The most challenging part of this game is to come up with names for these gobbers
Want to make it feel like they belong in the wizarding world

[rich prawn]

My name is elanora Morganach in game lol

[muted widget]

Would be funny if end up having their last names begin with V

[red finch]

I have

Alyth Bower - Ravenclaw

Nero Evertus -Slytherin

Lyell Evertus - Hufflepuff

Cameron Ahearn Slythetin

You could try looking up common names from the Victorian Era

[muted widget]

I would've done that a long time ago if I wanted to but I want to name them myself

[rich prawn]

Slytherin and Hufflepuff share last name and no Gryffindor save? Lol

[red finch]

I’m oversaturated with Gryffindor after the films and books.

Lyell and Nero are cousins

[rich prawn]

Understandable slytherin js best anyway

[red finch]

Besides I did a Gryffindor save just for the platinum trophy and immediately deleted her lol

[dim cypress]

overrated

[rich prawn]

The game itself is leaning towards you playing Slytherin my friend

[quick basin]

Are you referring to the game or in general?

Or both?

[rich prawn]

Yes

[quick basin]

Why is it the best house in your opinion?

[rich prawn]

5 professors are Slytherin with us having the charm professors outfit via twitch drops

Your in game bff's are Slytherin (2/4) (Sebastian and blind guy)
Imelda is the best written non bff student

Over 10 main and side quests will be spent helping a Slytherin student

Additionally several more side quests will be spent with Imelda & assorted Slytherin students, in total it's the most interacted with house

And more but that's a good starting point

[quick basin]

True, I agree with you on that slytherin has the most engagement with them but you are not missing on much when playing another house. Maybe minor fun facts when you talk to them in the slytherin common room as far as I know at least other than that I see no extra reason pointing at slytherin being a better house in the game. I mean you bound basically the same way with those characters no matter your house

Also you get to interact with other fascinating characters in the other houses common room that you couldn’t if you picked slytherin I think

[feral locust]

Its common room is located under water. Like if that isn't a good point for it being the best house. 🐙🐟🧜

[rich prawn]

You're missing out on alot of extra text you won't even know about its sprinkled throughout the game

I can list 10 more reasons why Slytherin best I just feel like my original points covered how much this game leans towards Slytherin

[feral locust]

joke aside, i honestly dont think there is one house that is best to pick. as Kaan said before you will bound with every character the same way and wont miss on much. Every house gives away some tiny fun facts about the house's characters. But thats it honestly. And when it comes to the house specific quest, I will definitely say Hufflepuff got the best one.

[rich prawn]

A hallway you walk down for 4 minutes and a cutscene

Atleast the other house's are actual gameplay

[rich prawn]

Most of the other characters outside Poppy, Garreth and naggy have minimum interaction
The one idiot in Gryffindor has the most but he's annoying

Garreth might have more optional conversation then him actually

Don't get me started on them Gryffindors though
They suck

Really the real choice is be part of Slytherin or be on the outside looking in

[dull thorn]

yoo im having a blast check this out xD

[quick basin]

Indeed, I think the developers did a great job at making sure that whatever house is chosen that the experience will be as good as in any other one just in a different way. Forcing it and saying one house is better than another is not the right way of looking I think although I must say Batgirl would make Salazar slytherin quite proud probably for not seeing it has a whole picture like he did when excluding muggle Born sorcerers. No one and neither house is better. They are all unique and fascinating in their own way xD

[quick basin]

xD

[quick basin]

A griffindor enjoying the joys of being a hufflepuff lmao

[dull thorn]

just grinffindor pls ,p

[rich prawn]

Hold on now you already admitted legacy is heavy on the Slytherin content making the rest lacking their own individual content

[quick basin]

xD

[quick basin]

How so?

[rich prawn]

It's an implied statement
If a tower leaning left it can't be leaning right

[dull thorn]

its a weekend time the Three Broomsticks and Zonko are gona be packed today xD

[quick basin]

What I said was more a tower that was leaning straight but made of four little towers that all lean on different directions but in the end they are all part of one straight tower when put together

[quick basin]

Haha

[rich prawn]

It don't tho
Your original assesment that Slytherin has the most engagement making it lean left was correct

[quick basin]

Ah you are referring to that message should have reacted to that not the other one xD

Well, yes that is what I wrote but I also said that while slytherin has was chosen for that side story quest that no house is missing out much on it. You do the mission with any house you want and the little extra interactions that one has with the two slytherin boys are compensated by other having other little extra conversations with other students of the belonging houses. It just so happened that they chose slytherin for the story because it made sense but it’s not leaning towards slithering being the best house since you do those quests and learn the cursed with any hous

[rich prawn]

You're trying to have it two ways and life can only give you one way

[quick basin]

You didn’t even read my message. You already made up your opinion and now you have lost the ability to be open minded. For you it seems like I am forcefully trying while I am just explaining my point of view that’s all

[rich prawn]

It was a five sentence message please don't be disingenuine

It did not take long to read and send a one line reply

[dull thorn]

forgot to put some clothes for breakfast dang

[quick basin]

Yes if you read without even taking a sec to think. But it’s fine. Anyways if you disagree it’s fine. We can agree to disagree

Our focus should be on having a good time after all xD

[quick basin]

Oh my xD

[rich prawn]

It's not hard to think as your reading? This conversation is turning silly with these last two messages
You didn't even read my reply
Yeah you did but you didn't really think about it

[dull thorn]

@quick basin bruv i rp the crap out of hogwarts hhh

[quick basin]

Well, in that case how about we end it here and change topics?

[quick basin]

Lmao

[rich prawn]

My slytherin is wearing a suspicious ammount of cobalt
Her racenclaw is showing

[red finch]

Wearing house colours or not doesn’t matter

Ronen wears purple.

McGonnagall regularly wore emerald green.

Just wear what looks good and fits your characters personality, even if it’s not repoing their house colours ,

[rich prawn]

Ronen was purposefully supposed to be a nice approachable slytherin,
However I'll give you McGonagall, but also however she was supposed to be a ravenclaw so emerald has enough blue in its shade

McGonagall was the longest hat stall of all time by Canon

[rich prawn]

I got ahold of the embellished cobalt coat btw jt looks better than the other coat

I'm on the hunt for a fringed house scarf, the game only wants to give me the regular or loose

[red finch]

Try the Gladrags trick

Much faster

[rich prawn]

I might have to even tho I'm generally against exploits lol

[red finch]

Not really that much of an exploit.

Not like glitching through walls to get stuff you shouldn’t be able to get

It’s also good for getting max stat legendary gear once you hit max level.

[rich prawn]

Lol I only glitched through walls one time for a ravenclaw coat since I'm playing a morganarch decendant

[rich prawn]

It's always loosened scarf not fringed raaahhhhh

[feral locust]

Arresto momentum can be turned into a curse very nice

[cold wyvern]

i think too... my favorite color is yellow

[muted widget]

I finally got the platinum(unfortunately the clip is awful)

[blazing grotto]

Congrats

[unreal echo]

nice

[topaz dagger]

I'm gonna assume this was achieved with the forbidden M word.

[tranquil surge]

MARRIAGE

[feral locust]

I'm inlove this this outfit after seeing it be talked about here 😍

I deliberately keep my offense and defence low don't worry about then numbers lol

[rich prawn]

Did you not only steal the outfit but my charecters name 😂

[feral locust]

Yes lmao I liked it and to be fair I said I was gunna do a morganarch playthrough first 🤣 😂 😅

[rich prawn]

I respect it lmao
I kinda prefer this coat though

[feral locust]

I'll delete one of my pics so we ain't spamming but nice outfit what coat is it

[rich prawn]

Embossed tailcoat

It's more black in all lights and less fancy
Where as the one you're wearing is often blue during the day and is abit fancier

[feral locust]

Morganarch twins unite

To be fair you stole my style bc I said I was gunna do it first but never did

[rich prawn]

Lol 🤣 fair enough I stole your name then

Isadora Morganach did nothing wrong

[feral locust]

Yaasssssss

[kindred pawn]

What am i....SUPOOSED TO DO WITH ALL THE MANNEQUINSNIN THIS SAMN SIDE QUEST

OH MY GOD THEY SCARED MEEEEE

[leaden bluff]

🤣

[kindred pawn]

AH HELL NOOO

WHO IS TAHDT

[feral locust]

Lmaoooo

[kindred pawn]

And now im lot

Of course i got lost

[feral locust]

It's a good mission try your best to enjoy lol

[kindred pawn]

Im terrified of mannequins how am i supposed to enjoy this😭

[feral locust]

Lol this game just Hates people who are afraid of stuff

Spiders and mannequins

[brittle oyster]

what if someone is afraid of people?

[feral locust]

That's just too irrational imo but at that point I don't think the person would even be playing video games

[brittle oyster]

hehe.. true.

[kindred pawn]

Mannequins or not, I am not continuing that damn side quest

[tardy marsh]

Spiders don't worry so much but the mannequins were creepy. My partner just told me to do that quest, no spoilers but had evil grin on his face. Never doing that again in my next playthrough

[muted widget]

Do it for penny

[feral locust]

Exactly

[kindred pawn]

....fair enough, i love her very much

[delicate crypt]

I think because of this game I developed arachnophobia lol

[feral locust]

I stole highwing from poppy

[ornate hare]

why am i missing 13 conjurations when i have collected all chests help😭😭

[muted widget]

12 conjurations are hidden in vivariums

[shut marlin]

And 15 from butterflies aren't included on the map counter.

[muted widget]

But you can track them by zooming out the map

From there you can fly in that region and spam revelio

[ornate hare]

yeah i found 2 butterflies and 11 from vivariums ty

[ornate hare]

you cant see them by zooming out of the map which is very sad

[muted widget]

If you're close to them while spamming revelio it'll permanently appear on the map

Unless they're landing platforms

[ornate hare]

oh i thought you meant that u can see them here

ive breeded every beast but didnt get the achievement what

[muted widget]

Maybe you missed one

[red finch]

Fwooper, Niffler, Diricawl, Jobberknoll, Thestral, Unicorn, Mooncalf, Giant Purple Toad, Kneazle, Puffskien, Hippogriff, Graphorn

You sure you didn’t miss one?

[ornate hare]

hmm ive done all but im not 100% sure about kneazle

[dim cypress]

I glitched one of these chests... if you open them while getting out of disillusionment it makes them look like they're still closed but are already opened

Also they still function as it, so it closes its eye if you go in disiullusionment and can still notice you

[feral locust]

Excuse My French but what the fudge is this

A random egg in my room of requirement lol

[red finch]

EGG

[feral locust]

At this point just let me keep the dragon egg lol

I can't interact or anything it's just there

[feral locust]

thats certainly intriguing.. at what point of the game are you? ive done three playthroughs and never encountered that. 🤔

maybe a hint for additional content in the future..? is deek reacting to it?

No reaction early winter

Switch version so no not a mod lol

https://tenor.com/view/curious-genius-magic-harry-potter-wand-gif-5016321

[shut marlin]

...Do you have anything hatching in one of your vivariums?????

[red finch]

Yeah could be a vivarium breeding pen asset bugging and showing up in the main hub area

[kindred pawn]

Here we go again...

[feral locust]

It was because of that but I could load a fall save and it would still be there
Weird glitch

[tardy marsh]

I've never encountered this

[jovial flume]

for professor sharp's assignment 1, do i have to brew the potions or can i buy them directly

this is the quest btw

[balmy barn]

brew or buy and then use

[red finch]

You can buy them directly if you can’t brew them. J.Pippins should sell all of them.

[feral locust]

You shouldn't even consider buying them tbh

Sharps mission is the perfect excuse to get your room of requirement up and running

There's enough eye chests all around hogsmead to afford the recipes, seeds and for you to buy a medium & large planter

You should also have enough to upgrade your small planter to a 3 size and buy a double potions table

[jovial flume]

is it normal for the unforgivable spells to not appear in the dark arts battle arena after completing it

My first load out also gets copied to the other load outs in the arena aswell now

[feral locust]

Yes you unlock them later in the story
They just available in that arena for funsies

[jovial flume]

I mean before i completed all the waves of the arena, i was able to use them, but now i cant use them in the arena, i know the spells get unlocked in the main story later

[feral locust]

That is normal yes, sorry forgot to hit send

[karmic quest]

can someone please help em to get this chest 😭

[red finch]

Yeah the arenas are bugged like that and it’ll overwrite all the slots.

It’s a known bug that’s been in the game since launch.

At least if you unlock the Unforgivables later you’ll be able to use them again by changing your spell slots in the arena

[feral locust]

Dark arts arena is intended to do that it was advertised to give access to curses early

That's like saying the Phoenix issue is a bug

[red finch]

Yeah it lets you use the curses early. But then going in there again with other spell slots and swapping the slots in the arena can overwrite all spell slots in the arena, making the unforgivable unusable unless you unlock them through Sebs questline.

The Dark Arts arena is supposed to give access to them just as a rule. You can use them early yes, but it shouldn’t then lock you out in that particular arena for swapping other spells in

It’s bugged and has been since launch last February

[feral locust]

That's like saying the Phoenix issue is a bug

[red finch]

The phones one is a user created issue.

But being able to swap out spells in any arena and even mid duel is a mechanic in the game that is intended to be used.

And that locking you out of spells you should be able to access at any time in the Dart Arts Arena is not how that should work considering that’s the entire purpose of the Dark Arts Arena.

[shut marlin]

Explore the room more. Maybe you'll find something to help you.

[glad vigil]

maybe

[shut marlin]

I was trying to give her a hint dude

[feral locust]

Imo it checks out
You get to test the spells until you win then you have to unlock as intended
Can always just fail before the final round
The mask isn't that cool

It is a cool mask though
Pair it with say the in game dark blue dark arts robes

[feral locust]

Yas

[brittle oyster]

my angel.

[feral locust]

It's unfortunate I agree with him because I want the spells
Atleast I can be the one to cast imperio

We sneaking

[blazing grotto]

Nice hat

[feral locust]

Thanks I wear it with every outfit regardless of color

Hands down best hat that's available in game without mods imo

Stare down

[rich prawn]

Good screenshot picture quality for a switch tbh

[kindred pawn]

HELP XDDD
WHI DID ANNE JUST TELL OMINIS "you saw what lues in the catscomb"

NO HE DIDNT😭😭😭

[brittle oyster]

oop

[red finch]

His wand helps him “see”

He knows what Inferi are and he knows they’re in there.

[kindred pawn]

Oooh that makes more sense xd, i thought it was like echolocation

[brittle oyster]

it does sort of work like that. then again, it's not exactly confirmed- how it works.

[kindred pawn]

Oh.....my god....

Sebastian just...

Im just gonna..... take a break from the game

Yeah, ill do that

BRO THAT WAS YOUR UNCLE

[topaz dagger]

Yep. And now that is worm food. Much more useful. 😌

[kindred pawn]

Oh god i dont wanna continue

WHAT IF OMINIS SAW HIM DO IT?!

....what if he heard him...

[topaz dagger]

He didn’t.

[red finch]

Key term was

Haha

[brittle oyster]

he does figure it out soon enough

[topaz dagger]

Ex-uncle.

[kindred pawn]

Break finished, im gonna cnfront this weird feeling

[topaz dagger]

watches slow-motion replay of Solomon’s death while she waits for you to finish confronting

[red finch]

He’s a stiff,

Bereft of life

He rests in peace

He’s shuffled off this mortal coil and joined the choir invisible

[karmic quest]

how do I take those for myself

[brittle oyster]

you could only get them at night.

[feral locust]

Me on the hunt for a nice red jacket to go with my rose colour riding gear

[red finch]

Try the check crimson overcoat or the red currant overcoat

I don’t have the latter on any of my chars atm, it’s a lighter red than the crimson one and has yellowish lapels

[feral locust]

The only ones I can get to load are robes and a bright red checkered one this darker one looks nice

I wish there was a green or yellow riding gear because I like the dragon coat

Draco coat? Idk lol

[red finch]

I’ve gone for Grey Voyager Gear and the Draconic Longcoat before

Looks nice together

[feral locust]

Oh yeah that's not bad

I usually stick with the rider outfit but grey voyager don't look too bad

[red finch]

Here it is without the coat

And in a cinematic with the coat lol

[feral locust]

I hurried up and got to winter just so wearing costs would make more sense now I need fashion lol

The thief's coat looks pretty good too

Hear me out here we combine these outfits for a supreme red and white drip

[red finch]

I mean, wearing coats even in summer makes sense.

The Scottish highlands aren’t exactly the warmest even in summer

And the area is in a valley , so you’re going to get cold even on calmer days

[feral locust]

Yeah that's true but you'll also have access to full animal stuff & breeding by winter aswell if you're into that side of things

Fall is nice though very pretty Halloween decorations and stuff in hogsmead

That's a very white charecter btw I don't remember having the option to go that pale

[kindred pawn]

I cant turn him in, hes my friend

But i think ominis wants to in his mind and i dont wanna be against him

[topaz dagger]

Don't do it. Seb doesn't deserve Azkaban.

[kindred pawn]

THEN WE WONT TURN HIM IN

[topaz dagger]

YAY

[kindred pawn]

OKAY OMINIS IS INDERATANDING

[topaz dagger]

OMINIS IS SO NICE

[kindred pawn]

I love thst man

[topaz dagger]

Me too

[kindred pawn]

This damn relstionship quest WHY DO THEY TAKE SO LONG TO APPEAR AGAIN

[topaz dagger]

Because the best things in life are worth waiting for.

[feral locust]

Is there any white hats? Or white and red hats

My current one wouldn't work on a white and red outfit lol

[red finch]

They added 2 new paler and 2 darker skin tones for either end of the skin tone gradient in like.. may last year?

I have a pic with my girl with the launch palest option and post patch after they added it. The old palest option was still slightly tan lol

[feral locust]

That cobalt coat just too good

Shame it's not available in other colours

[red finch]

There an azure and gold variant and the side quest reward one you’ve seen and that it’s sadly

[feral locust]

Yeah I'm bout to do that arena asap for the white and red one
How you get the gold and blue & black and white one?

Random loot?

[red finch]

Sorry meant the red and white one, the arena reward one you were looking at

It’s been a hot minute and I need to get back to HL again lol

Also it’s 3:35am and I’m running in fumes lol

[tardy marsh]

I turned him in on my 1st playthrough but this time I'm not going to

[feral locust]

Lol I do my Hogwarts legacy gaming at night too 330 aswell

[topaz dagger]

*on fumes

[tardy marsh]

Ima play it tonight as well 😋

[red finch]

Shhh 🤣🤣🤣
I’m also literally blind and “i” and “o” are right next to each other and typing with borked depth perception means silly little errors like that haha

[feral locust]

I wonder if I could clear the arena at level 17/18 with points only in the dark arts skill tree rn lol

[kindred pawn]

I just tamed s graphorn(?

[topaz dagger]

🥹 ❤️

[kindred pawn]

........does it play the httyd theme or is it me?...

[topaz dagger]

The what theme?

[tardy marsh]

How to train your dragon?

[topaz dagger]

I don't remember that one, so I can't say.

[tardy marsh]

I think that's what they meant but I don't remember it either. I've not seen that movie in years

[kindred pawn]

Yup

Like, after i tamed it while running it just playedso similar

[tardy marsh]

Interesting, I'll have a listen when I get back up to that point. I did a restart of my Gryiffindor playthrough

[kindred pawn]

Oohhh

[feral locust]

Hippogrif>>>]

[tardy marsh]

I keep telling my partner that I want a Hippgriff & Niffler as a pet

[topaz dagger]

I want a mooncalf.

[tardy marsh]

Hippogriff coz it'd be my mode of transport, I won't need a car anymore. And the Niffler coz... well, they search for gold so money 🤣

[kindred pawn]

I lowkey want a threstral

Thestral? Thestheral?.....

[topaz dagger]

Thestral.

I'd like to ride a thestral, but wouldn't want to be able to see it.

It’s the only way to ride a thestral as a flying Mount alternative to Highwing (and Caligo if you got the pre order bonuses)

But you can still catch thestrals for your vivariums

[feral locust]

Ride the evil horse do it now

[kindred pawn]

Im definitely buying that slc...but...right now should i keep themsgic contained?...or open it

[tardy marsh]

Caligo is my fav. For me, Highwing is just too bright. The white against everything else in background is blinding sometimes

[red finch]

Caligo also has pretty eyes.

and blue black feathers.

Pretty boy

[shut marlin]

I really hope they'll release him as future DLC, I really want him on my alt

[tardy marsh]

He's my go-to mount. I'm not a fan of the thestrals

[red finch]

Old pic lol

From my first playthrough with Alyth.

[tardy marsh]

Beautiful shot

I love his striking blue eyes

[brittle oyster]

that’s a pretty shot! what do you play on?

[red finch]

People are selling preorder codes online ebay if you’re desoerate.

Not all preorder bonuses are released and dlc in the future. It might never be available beyond finding a code for sale online

[shut marlin]

Nah, I don't think I wanna mess with that.

[red finch]

PS5

Need to take some again with “new” Alyth. Once she gets to that point haha

[kindred pawn]

I finished the main story

I didn't get the killing curse💀

[feral locust]

Good , even on a dark side playthrough I don't get it lol, real answer yoy have to choose the right chat options after Sebastián kills his uncle

[kindred pawn]

Im honestly happy I didnt get it, i was afraid it would lead to an alternate bad ending

[feral locust]

It's too cheap to me personally the other curses can act more as tools, that one just kills em

[feral locust]

Trying some things out in the room of requirement
Hufflepuff styled centerpiece

[rich prawn]

That's actually not bad one of the nicer main rooms I've seen

[sonic prism]

question. how to access this chest? it is in the rescue rococo mission

[topaz dagger]

More context needed.

[dull canyon]

Pretty sure thats the place were the floor moves you through walls

[topaz dagger]

Tru.

[dull canyon]

Can't help with that one if so. That place confused me

[feral locust]

@red finch @rich prawn
Rate the fit

I'm annoyed most red in the game is different shades lol

[rich prawn]

That's why the cobalt version of that outfit is better none of the Reds match correctly

Literally even the dragon coat and green outfit matches more
Reds are brutal

Atleast your scarf matches your coat lol

[feral locust]

Yeah cobalt matches better and has more overall drip

It's a shame the red version is slightly off

Is it possible to learn the crucioto curse after refusing to learn it the first time?

[unreal echo]

yes if i recall well

[feral locust]

Cool, thanks. I wanna use it on the poachers.

[unreal echo]

i think u just have to talk to sebastian

[red finch]

Yes.

So long as you don’t ||turn Seb in|| at the end of his questline you can go see him in the Undercroft and learn any Unforgivables you haven’t already learned.

[feral locust]

I don't intend to do what's in the spoilers, so hooray!

Even in a good playthrough I'd learn imperio
It's not killing or torture
Just being used as a tool

That's... I'd like to learn more on how it's a tool.

[feral locust]

Book 7 prof McGonagall uses it to peacefully make Slytherin students give up their wants

Imperio is only evil when used by evil

Harry uses it to peacefully sneak into the bank

Oh, I was thinking of the wrong one!

Crucio is for torture and the final curse is for killing

It's the sole unforgivable curse that can be used for good but obviously extreme evil too

I want to learn two of the unforgivable curses so I can use them on the poachers.

So is it ||after Sebastian's storyline|| I can talk to him to learn the curses or can I talk to him before?

[red finch]

Does she? I know she uses it in Carrow but I don’t think she used it on the students.

She told the students to evacuate and they did because they weren’t going to risk their skin for Harry

[feral locust]

It's another classic movie L I misremembered when it was cast trying to place it into the movies lol

Minerva McGonagall used the Imperius Curse, which is surprising considering her propensity to follow the rules. This happened in the books, and not the movies, but she used it on Amycus, so Harry Potter could continue his search for the Horcrux.Nov 11, 2023

On-top of being possible to use for good it's able to be resisted
Even Harry Potter used crucio however I'm not willing to make a argument the torture curse can be used for good lol

Harry showing his Slytherin side

He enjoyed and took immense pleasure in casting crucio he would of done well in Slytherin

Crucio could be used to allow poor innocent victims to run away.

Using crucio will always be evil because you have to mean it and want to cause pain, similar to the killing curse

True.

In a previous book Harry tried to cast it when he didn't mean it and failed, Bella walked it off

Anti-hero.

[red finch]

You have to mean all of the Unforgivables to be able to cast them, including Imperio,

[feral locust]

Imperio can be used for good though, it's not just torture or just killing
And one can overpower Imperio

[feral locust]

That's how I'd describe Harry, especially book Harry, from book 3 onward he has several points where he is Grey and does questionable things

Imperio is you stripping someone of their own free will, and I think Harry is the only one to resist it. I don't remember much... my mind is a bit foggy. I do remember the halloween party the ghosts threw in Book 2.

Yes you strip someone of their free will but can force them to do good
Or force a situation to be without bloodshed

There can be good intentions behind it

Vs

I want to kill you
Or
I want you to feel pain and to torture you

Harry Potter, Barty Crouch Sr. and Barty Crouch Jr. each learned to resist the curse after being subjected to its effects, though the latter two took quite a long time before building the said resistance, and in Barty Sr.'s case, resistance against Voldemort's powerful curse has seemingly caused mental damage.

I suspect Snape, lupin and Dumbledore can resist it too

So can killing and torturing. They could have good intentions.

At its core you want to kill or hurt someone
It's different than avoiding bloodshed or forcing a hostile situation into compliance

I can't argue with that logic.

You'd still want to take control of someone, though.

According to Severus Snape, resisting the Imperius Curse was similar to Occlumency. Both required a great amount of willpower, though it is unknown if Occlumency would actually work against the curse.[22]

From the Wikipedia article you can gather Draco and hermolie would of been able to avoid the Imperius Curse aswell
https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Occlumency

[pearl nacelle]

I know of the animosity between snape and harry causing harry not to learn occlumency properly but if harry can resist the imperius curse but not be able to do occlumency then arguably resisting them is not the same principle

I do however always find it funny how there are proposals that wizards use the killing curse to slaughter animals for food lol

[feral locust]

Harry put up with his aunt's, uncle's and cousin's nonesense too long to do some ridiculous thing someone wants him to do without good reason.

It's the general consensus (assumption) in the Wizarding world they the though so with our only evidence two guys that hate eachother we can't say for sure
Harry did walk the Curse off like it was nothing too so he does have the willpower

[pearl nacelle]

I think if someone like Dumbledore had taught him he would have managed to learn Occlumency

[feral locust]

I despise Dumbledore, he basically wanted Harry to be a human sacrifice for rhe first 6 books

[pearl nacelle]

The one thing me and my sister have in common is our absolute hatred for Dumbledore

We cant deny he's powerful but i could probably AK him

[feral locust]

Harry was supposed to be slytherin???

Forget about it , Dumbledore willing to let Harry die for the greater good is slytherin, ends justify the means is still overall on the dark side of logic

[pearl nacelle]

The ends justify the means but if the ends were going to cause devastation with the loss of a child's life then are the means really worth it

[feral locust]

I still hold the opinion Harry was supposed to die in book 2, but Dumbledores bird went rogue

[pearl nacelle]

Tom Riddle: you will die today Harry Potter
Fawkes: hmmm nah

[feral locust]

Bro can talk to snakes just say no

I mean, if Volemort was going to ive forever and have those who aren't pureblood wizards or witches murdered, that might be worth it. Thousands of lives lost vs. the one.

[pearl nacelle]

I think the basilisk was full on brainwashed though

[feral locust]

The good don't trade lives though, even tho Harry is part evil he's not evil

[pearl nacelle]

I have two counters for this:

1. If Dumbledore was supposedly so powerful and was the only thing Voldemort was scared of he could have ended his reign of terror before it began. Yes I know there were horcruxes but Dumbledore still could have killed him because Voldemort's body literally just disintegrates
2. Harry is a child I feel like we shouldn't be okay with sacrificing a literal child

[feral locust]

Getting sorted into s
Gryfrindor probably saved Harry from being a human sacrifice lol

Voldemort would just find new hosts to parasite off of for the first one. Though, to be fair, maybe Dumbledor had to improv along the way.

[pearl nacelle]

I like to think that in an alternate universe, my hogwarts legacy character lived to 100 and took the horcrux out of Harry as a baby

[feral locust]

In the books Dumbledore was right around the corner during the events of book/movie one, he basically let Harry die

[pearl nacelle]

It still took 13 years for him to return though. That's plenty of time for Dumbledore to kill Voldemort's body and then find a way to negate his immortality whilst keeping an eye on the whereabouts of his spirit

[feral locust]

Dumbledore literally left Harry to die in book 2, his bird came I with the assist, jts never officially said Dumbledore sent him to dave Harry

Came in. *

[pearl nacelle]

Fawkes brought the sorting hat to Harry of his own accord

[feral locust]

Save *

Dumbledore wanted Harry to kill the basilisk and ot get rid of the book.

[pearl nacelle]

I harbour a deep loathing for Dumbledore

[feral locust]

Correct, so with Dumbledore being around the corner in book 1, and letting Harry fend for himself in book 2
Do I even need to elaborate

If Harry was slytherin he's dead, he saved himself really

I feel like Dumbledore had a plan the whole time.

[pearl nacelle]

What makes it more frustrating is that Fawkes can clearly fire travel into the Chamber of Secrets so could have taken Dumbledore there to kill the basilisk himself but Dumbledore went "hmm nah let's let the 12 year old do it" like sir

[feral locust]

Yes, that is true.

[pearl nacelle]

I could probably go on a 40 hour rant about Dumbledore

[feral locust]

Please do.

[pearl nacelle]

I will shorten it for the sake of this server but it will still be pretty long (please commence the 20 minutes of me typing)

[feral locust]

You can dm me.

[pearl nacelle]

We're gonna take this ALL the way back to Tom Riddle's childhood and detail certain events

• So you have Dumbledore travel to an 11 year old Riddle's orphanage to say "you've got magic!" First of all there's a serious problem with how he displays his magic by SETTING HIS WARDROBE AND ALL HIS WORLDLY POSSESSIONS ON FIRE. You then have him getting super suspicious of little Tom saying he can hurt people if he wants: you see him going down this path and you don't once intervene or TRY to understand his motives behind all the hurt he's caused because my god no child is born evil, and if no one stops them doing bad stuff obviously this is going to be a self fulfilling prophecy.
• Then there is the whole thing with Grindelwald. Why does no one ever talk about how they were literally best friends (fanon says they were lovers) and the Greater Good was literally their thing?? Dumbledore didn't even kill Grindelwald which just tells me he's a coward. Grindelwald literally wreaked havoc (see: mass murder) but for the sake of a friendship or relationship or whatever Dumbledore CLEARLY has no problems with letting evil people walk free
• Back to Tom Riddle: Dumbledore claims he was suspicious of Tom since the start, and he was literally Deputy Headmaster he could have kept closer tabs on Tom and no one would have batted an eye?? Then he decides: oh let's let the wizard who I suspect of committing crimes walk free in society instead of giving him a position and therefore dooming all my future professors to painful deaths. He is literally the Deputy Headmaster he could have offered him any other position or heavily monitored him but no he decides to just throw him out therefore cementing the evil path Tom's walking down

And this doesn't even begin to cover Marauder's era onwards smh

Mm yes essay

Tldr i have problems with dumbledore and if i ever met him id probably set his portrait on fire

[kindred pawn]

I am haing so much dam trouble with the snidgets puzzle OMG IS IT S CLOCK?! WHY DO THE SYMBOLS GLOW, DO I FREEZE THE WHOLE PLACE?!

[feral locust]

I think Dumbledor was the headmaster at that time.

[pearl nacelle]

Is this the weird two glowy symbols on the floor thing or the bit outside

[pearl nacelle]

That literally makes it worse

[feral locust]

To be fair, Tom was only there so he can find Ravenclaw's diadiem or whatever it's called.

[pearl nacelle]

Did he not make that into a horcrux when he was younger

[feral locust]

No, he didn't. nly after he was an adult.

[pearl nacelle]

Ah

I mean he succeeded either way in making it a horcrux. If Dumbledore had offered him a position, even if he quit afterwards he would be less likely to place the curse on the position. Of course he could have anyway but it genuinely seemed avoidable

[feral locust]

I imagine the position would have been cursed either way as I'm sure Tom wouldn't want teachers teaching the youth how to beat him.

[feral locust]

Tom was just a normal slytherin till Dumbledore pissed him off extra

Then he cursed the whole class lol

The movies do a bad job of showing it but other people pushed Tom over the edge from regular evil to super evil

He always enjoyed killing, though.

No one's arguing he wasn't evil, just the way he was treated made him worse

Look at Draco people influencing him to be the worst version of himself

He started off a brat snot nosed kid and was molded into almost a death eater, but in the end he couldn't do it

Good point.

[sage galleon]

Another lvl 40 😍

[feral locust]

Time for a slytherin

[shut marlin]

Nice!

[feral locust]

Question about the story, does anyone know why we never found out what happened to Sebastian sister or did I miss that completely? Did we find out? I probably missed it then

Because she was sick from some curse I know that

[sage galleon]

Done already

[feral locust]

Ohhhhhhh yeaaahh

[shut marlin]

...We do find out. It's a pretty significant thing that happens. Have you not finished the game yet???

[feral locust]

I did lol, then I probably missed it sorry

Could you explain what happened ?

[shut marlin]

||It was Rookwood. We find out when he accosts the player outside of Ollivander's and says 'children should be seen and not heard'. The player then tells this to Sebastian (or Ominis, if Sebastian was expelled).||

[red finch]

Tom had already created at least one Horcrux by that point.

He was already twisted even as a child, he used to torment the other orphans and hurt two of them at the place he later stored the locket.

[feral locust]

Yeah he was already evil
Add more gas to your fire it's still a fire but you've made it worse

[blazing grotto]

But if you be nice to a fire, it’s still a fire. It’s not gonna go away and the damage done remains.

[feral locust]

But fire torn earth can give birth to new life

[blazing grotto]

Letting a dangerous sociopath teach impressionable kids is not a great idea.

[feral locust]

We let a dangerous sociopath be headmaster and almost let Harry die consecutive times across the books

If Harry got sorted into slytherin he dies by book 2 minimum

[blazing grotto]

Lol true. I don’t deny that dumbledore isn’t a good guy.

[feral locust]

You bring a young Tom to hogwarts
You put him in gryfrindor or hufflepuff
I bet we can Salvage somthing

[red finch]

It’s up to the Sorting Hat though.

Tom was ambitious and wanted power even in the orphanage.

He wasn’t kind nor was he brave. He didn’t have any of the traits even latent ones, of the other houses. He was driven purely by his own ambition. So the bat put him in Slytherin,

[feral locust]

The hat knows , everyone knows slytherin is a melting pot of bad influences with parents who are bad influences likely to fester in eachkthers negative emotions

Somtimes you just have to put someone in the wrong house, like Harry Potter lol

[blazing grotto]

If the hat knows it doesn’t care. As it’s built by the founders including the evil Slytherin.

If the hat was considering people’s well-being Slytherin would be empty.

[feral locust]

It's time to disband the best house

We could probably split most slytherins between gryfrindor and ravenclaw lol

[dull canyon]

Well first 4 books. His plan actually gave HP an out from dying once he learned of the blood LV took from him. Alas his plan ultimately needed HP to be hit the AK from LV to destroy the Horcrux inside him thus allowing LV to become mortal again once his other Horcruxes were destroyed.. There was no other way that we know of.

There's also how much AD actually knew before all of this. Like in book 6 he says he suspected LV made a Horcrux after book 2 but only had it confirmed in book 6.

[feral locust]

I just got a outfit idea
Tan riding gear + poacher coat

[dull canyon]

So he seemed to be planning things based around LV actually making Horcrux

and that HP became one.

Without confirming if LV had more or not

Like the other idea thrown around for years is what if a Dementor took HPs soul. Would it take the Horcrux with it and destroy it or would the Horcrux remain intact inside a Dementor for potentially all time.? Would it spare HPs soul and the Horcrux only be taken?

AD wasn't gonna even entertain the idea of letting a dementor suck HPs soul out

in the hopes it would only take the horcrux

which may not even destroy it

[red finch]

And that’s a vague assumption to make.

The dementor would want Harry’s soul over the parasitic bit of Voldy’s and might only take Harry’s leaving Voldy’s soul a nice empty husk to take over with Harry’s living but soulless body.

[dull canyon]

Aye. Good point.

I do wonder though if HP died via other ways but was revived before brain death, would that destroy the Horcrux while leaving HP alive?

[red finch]

I think the point was that it had to be Voldy to kill him?

Otherwise the soul fragment would just latch onto the next nearest host.

Plus like

The Prophecy. If that got borked before it could be fulfilled then that could have thrown things massively in Voldy’s favour.

The prophecy scared Voldy so much it was the reason the bitter parents died and Harry almost died,

[dull canyon]

AD believed LV had to kill HP at any rate. Whether that actually true or not is another matter. AD admitted in the end his plan was based on his own hypothesis and they were in the unknown as far as magic goes. He was prob correct though.

[feral locust]

Dumbledore was just a bad person, the prequel series did him no favors
You were lovers with the bad guy, previously worked with him on a ends justified the means basis and refused to kill him but would kill Harry good job

[dull canyon]

I mean HPs situation doens't leave any other options as far we know as I've mentioned above. If he had a way beforehand to destroy the Horcrux in HP without killing him, he'd have taken it.

Thankfully LV himself gave him that option.

[sonic prism]

How o see which side missions I have completed and which I still need to do?

found it

[sage galleon]

Do you guys continue the game after lvl 40?

[tardy marsh]

I will be on this run, I wanna 100% everything this time

[sage galleon]

All houses?

[tardy marsh]

I'm doing a restart on Gryiffindor after not playing the game for ages. Then will probs go back to Slytherin run, I'm not sure if I'll do the other 2

[sage galleon]

That’s what I did, restarted Ravenclaw and then Slytherin because of Sebastian and Ominis

[tardy marsh]

Yeah Slytherin & Gryiffindor are my 2 fav ones anyway so will probs only do those two

[indigo loom]

@rich prawn Surely you're the most active person on this server

Wish you could actually go underwater

[rich prawn]

Lmaoo I use discord mobile in my defence checking this app is like checking fb

[dim cypress]

I forgot that the fourth trial was just purely ||taming the graphorn and nothing else||

[tardy marsh]

Kinda glad you can't, I wouldn't wanna see what other creatures are down there besides Grindylows, Merpeople & Giant Squid

[tulip iron]

Wait based on the letters in Tobbs’ quest, was his master J Pippin?

[shut marlin]

I don't think so, I didn't see any indicator at all of that???

[tulip iron]

The letter in Spinners Cavern, it’s just a shot in the dark

[shut marlin]

I know the letter you're talking about, I don't know why you would think it was J. Pippin.

Tobbs died fairly soon before the MC found him and J. Pippin is either retired or dead, given that he was at the very least Parry's grandfather.

[tulip iron]

Ah gotcha, I see.

Now I got big spooders to fight.

[broken isle]

Hi, I have a problem, I am in the end of the first Parsifal Rackham's trial and Im trying to unkick the pensive notging happens and I dont know what to do with this bug, like Im stuck here

[silk lava]

What platform?

[broken isle]

Steam I guess

[silk lava]

This bug was supposed to be fixed by the 2nd June patch

||But I see that you have some "third party modifications". Try removing those and see if you can launch the cutscene||

[broken isle]

I have many of modifications, should I remove all of them?

[silk lava]

Yeah temporarily

If that doesn't fix it I have one thing that might help

[broken isle]

Ok thanks, I will try

It worked, thank you.

Do I have to remove mods every time I do trials?

[silk lava]

No just this one

Although I don't recommend talking about those here

This server doesn't allow for such discussions

[feral locust]

@rich prawn @red finch I'm fairly happy with how this turned out

The whites are off shades but it's even more noticeable with the different shades of red

Gotta keep my potions hat
No matter what colour my outfit is lol

[rich prawn]

The white version isn't as good as the cobalt version of the outfit imo but it still looks nice

[feral locust]

I think it's cause cobalt goes with the hat more and since it's half black in most lights you can throw in green

[red finch]

There are white gloves like the Elf made Ivory Gloves that might go well too?

[topaz dagger]

Evidently, Avalanche bought the rights to the HTTYD song and modified it. :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZ_e08GewSU As claimed in the comments here.

[kindred pawn]

I KNEW IT WAS SIMILAAAR

[red finch]

“Claimed”

There’s no evidence lol

The tracks are similar but they didn’t steal the music. And they’re not a 1:1 match

The thing with music is you can’t create a piece that won’t sound like another piece from somewhere

[shut marlin]

I caught the similarity too, but it is not the actual theme

And yeah, a claim on YouTube is by no means a source lmfao???

[topaz dagger]

No one's claiming they stole the music. Some of the comments said they bought the rights to the song, to use in the game.

[red finch]

Again, these are claims with absolutely zero evidence lol

And the tracks aren’t an exact 1:1 match. They’re not the same, if WB bought the rights to the sing, they’d use the sing not modify it, and there would be some announcement sonewhere by WB and/or Dreamworks to say “oh yeah btw, we bought/sold the rights to this one song for this cool wizard game!”

It’s a different song it just sounds similar,

The human brain is designed to recognise patterns and pull from memory to do so. People who know the track from HTTYD will pick up on similarities

It’s audio pareidolia nothing more.

People are making baseless claims because it’s the Internet lol

[feral locust]

They a little too off white for me the ones I have on are better but half brown

I'm mostly able to make the outfit work by focusing on white though
With red way too many different shades

[red finch]

Sage Embellished gloves maybe?

I think they’re more white

[feral locust]

I haven't had them spawn for me in the shop yet leme google em

[feral locust]

You know what robes look real neat though
The highland Explorer one for its field guide pages

Unfortunately I avoid Feild guide pages to preserve level integrity

[shut marlin]

,,,What in the Hells does that even mean

[feral locust]

Too much XP at 50 each
Along with the XP from enemy's and quests you'll quickly become overleveled which will affect difficulty and builds
If you use a curse build and overleveled they'll just die too fast

Best to save pages for last and just get quest and enemy XP

Not bad gloves actually too

[shut marlin]

???????????? If you want a tougher challenge just up your difficulty????? There is no such thing as 'overlevelling' in this game. You are supposed to collect Field Guide pages as you come across them. You are supposed to gain experience at that rate.

[feral locust]

There is such thing as overleveling, a curse build won't work if you kill too fast

They'll be no challenge if you just kill everything in a few hits ect ect

[shut marlin]

I would love to study you

[robust fjord]

Tbh even with the highest difficulty you can still overpower enemies easily with some builds

[rich prawn]

This kid argues just to argue I swear
Not overleveling to maintain challenges is standard RPG practice

[shut marlin]

Except this isn't a high-powered MMO that's designed to keep you on the back foot constantly

[rich prawn]

Any rpg not overleveling is valid

Just doing main quest/killing and the odd Merlin trial will keep you on par with the quest suggested level , you'll have challenging encounters instead of brain dead flying through baddies

[shut marlin]

That's the suggested MINIMUM level. Not the suggested level in general. Sweet God above.

[rich prawn]

Why are you so ignorant and dismissive it's like you're incapable of having a standard conversation like a normal human being

[robust fjord]

No point arguing, in my first (and only) run I leveled up way too fast as I was doing a 100% run, if you do want a challenging game then you don't want to level up too fast

[rich prawn]

Regardless of wording
You'll stay on par with the level quests unlock
Preserving and keeping the challenge instead of flying through the combat

Doing this also allows you to keep builds useful and useable

[shut marlin]

Forgive me if I constantly find gaps in the logic of a woman who thinks that all animals must adhere to a human moral code and if they don't they're 'evil'

[rich prawn]

The fact you're still having your panties in a bunch over a two week old conversation is ridiculous by itself

Bringing up it's a woman is ridiculous by itself

You don't have to be ignorant and dismissive regardless

[robust fjord]

two week old,

[shut marlin]

??? I said woman because she's a woman, I'm a woman too, I'm not mocking her gender

[rich prawn]

There was still no reason to bring up sex or gender whichever your preferred term is
But yes it was a lesser point that's why I said it second

[robust fjord]

Just let it go, you're going to get muted or banned at worst for conflict

[shut marlin]

It wasn't an intentional thing though

[robust fjord]

Trying to keep on a low level to get a more challenging feel is ok and pretty much recommended, cuz the game isn't that difficult after you've managed to "master" the mechanics of the game

even when facing tens of enemies

[rich prawn]

Well even ignoring that still caring about a two week old conversation and using it to be ignorant to conversations had in the future is unreasonable

[shut marlin]

Because that's an absolutely insane thing to believe, this isn't some stupid 'difference of opinion', there is something genuinely wrong with that kind of moral belief

[red finch]

You only gain a measly 20 health per level.

You don’t HAVE to spend talent points

Just keep wearing your older under levelled/lower stat gear.

Hard difficulty.

Collecting 14 field guide pages in the highlands isn’t going to over level you

[shut marlin]

Thank you, my God

[rich prawn]

Two week old drama is ridiculous to hold onto and use to judge all farther conversation

All conversations should be proceeded into with a open mind and a willingness to listen to what the other party has to say

You're ignorant and dismissive to a insane degree

Wanting to preserve and keep the difficulty is a standard practice across all RPGs
Staying at the minimum level not only keeps difficulty but allows builds to stay useful

Not overleveling is the same concept as wearing old gear btw, 😂

[shut marlin]

But at least it's not deliberately avoiding one of the major goals of the game

[rich prawn]

Where does it say it must be done immediately and what content is locked behind it besides outfits?
It can be done last
It's 50xp per page if you did all of Hogwarts you'd be level 15+ before hogsmead

[red finch]

And denying yourself fashion in the process

[shut marlin]

Lmao

[rich prawn]

This is a difference of opinion literally
You're using a two week old conversation to be extra judgmental and ignorant to the simple train of thought of keeping the difficulty

[shut marlin]

If you can't see what's wrong with such a MASSIVE lack of critical thinking and how that might not be isolated to just that one 'two week old conversation' then there is no point in trying to have any kind of conversation with you either.

[rich prawn]

You're so ignorant it's almost amusing

[shut marlin]

I love how you're the one calling me ignorant in the face of what exactly you're defending like it's normal

Whatever. I'm done. Like I said, there's no point.

[robust fjord]

You two gonna get muted, just let it go 🥴

[rich prawn]

Lots of groups of people would find murdering/eating animals wrong
Vegans, Muslims
You're absolutely being ignorant
But again you're still crying around about a two week old conversation and that's sad all by itself

[rich prawn]

I'll take a mute it's worth it to call out the stupidity

[shut marlin]

...Yes, they would argue that it's wrong when humans do it. Because humans have a moral code.

Not when other animals do it?????

[rich prawn]

That's literally the definition of a difference of opinion

Lots of cultures bellive some animals are equal to humans and other various things aswell lol

[shut marlin]

I need to make sure you understand that Navaja thinks that when animals kill people/other animals, they are doing something morally wrong

[rich prawn]

I understand you guys had a difference of opinion two weeks ago now you can't stop crying

[shut marlin]

I don't know why I even bothered

[rich prawn]

Finally were in agreement 🤝
The dismissive tone and ignorance of your messages is uneeded

[feral locust]

Me watching the drama go down wondering why no one got muted lol

The struggle to find these gloves is real
I'ma have to do the shop exploit

[red finch]

It’s way faster than save scumming chests lol

[feral locust]

I've save scummed clothing once to get the fringed house scarf and never seen these once I'ma be doing this for awhile lol

[feral locust]

Man this sucks lol
I've already save scummed alot to not get bad room of requirement items from the chests lol

[signal void]

Instead of save scumming 6 months after release just get a few mods and your problem is solved

playing this game vanilla is a horrible experience

i couldnt imagine still playing this game lol

and i LOVE hp

simply nothing to do in the game after beating story which is fine but yeah

[topaz dagger]

False.

[red finch]

It’s perfectly fine on console

And I’m still playing almost a full year later, I started on February 7th Early access on my PS5 and I’m still enjoying it,

[feral locust]

Fortunately I went in expecting a Harry Potter game like someone with a functional brain so I had and am having a good time lol

[red finch]

My Wizarding world game set in the Victorian era has wizarding world stuff and is pretty historically accurate in regards to clothing and hair?!! Outrageous!

Scandalous!

[topaz dagger]

Most unorthodox!

[feral locust]

If these gloves don't spawn my head is going to explode but the fashion demands I get the gloves

[red finch]

People like “why can’t my 15-16 year old character wear make up?”

Because few women did back then that weren’t in unsavoury professions, and definitely not heavy make up. That was for shows.

[topaz dagger]

Tru. Although most women didn't fly on broomsticks and cast fire spells at zombies, either.

[red finch]

Yeah but I’m talking historically accurate fashion and hair. A thing even Wizards did as having the sane fashion made blending in with muggles easier.

Some young witch with a face full of make up would probably be called something unsavoury and believed to be part of such uh… profession

[topaz dagger]

Yeah, that's true. Gotta' blend in.

I enjoyed the lady at the Hogsmeade salon saying that girls were going for the 'death becomes me' consumption look these days.

[red finch]

Yes because the paler you looked, the better. It implied wealth and success because those with money wouodnt tan from hard labour.

They also used to use arsenic in beauty products which helped maintain a pallid complexion.

It also poisoned you lol

[blazing grotto]

No blending in for us. We don’t need to go to the muggle lands unless we’re killing non magical poachers. (Just kidding. Your points are sound.)

[feral locust]

Fashion is saved
I rolled a pair of rough housing gloves that match the snowy owl scarf

If the fashion demands soft resetting for 9 hours you do so

[topaz dagger]

No! I rebel against fashion!

[blazing grotto]

Rebel against fashion by wearing the niffler mask.

[rich prawn]

I gotta say I'm surprised most people who use the thief's jacket their outfit looks mid
Gg

[feral locust]

If only there was a good white hat
Sun hat mid
Nomad hat mid

Several witch hats are cute but there more off white or yellow then white in their white parts

[dull canyon]

It seems the different clothing styles between muggles and wizards only really kicked in during the early 20th century and for most of history they just wore the same clothing depending on the region.

[red finch]

Likely because a lot of muggle stuff advanced and becane stuff that Wizarding folk couldn’t assimilate.

Anything powered by electricity doesn’t function around concentrated magic.

Muggles advanced and things changed like fashion, and wizards just stuck with what they knew and dress like muggles when needed

[topaz dagger]

Witches and wizards are traditionalists like that. Never adopted the pencil either.

[blazing grotto]

Major disadvantage. Pencils would make it much easier. Don’t need to contend with constantly needing to re ink the quill, or knocking the inkwell over.

[red finch]

There are quills that are enchanted to provide their own ink, no inkwell required

[topaz dagger]

Why doesn't everybody use those quills?

[red finch]

Expensive lol

Compkex charms and enchantments means they’re more costly than a regular quill and ink.

[topaz dagger]

But when you consider how much ink the average witch or wizard will need to purchase over their lifetime, it kinda pays for itself.

[dull canyon]

Yah i'd agree with that. some clothing wouldn't exist without the necessity required for them

like radiation suits etc

[red finch]

Ink is probably dirt cheap to buy, self inking quills can start to malfunction or not work as the enchantment gets older.

And if you cinsider the sizes of some magical families, buying self inking quills for every kid going to school and then replacing them when the enchantment starts wearing off, it’s more financially viable to buy it all dirt cheap at wholesale price rather than the much more expensive enchanted quill.

Also if your enchanted quill breaks, the enchantment would tok and you’d have no ink or quills to use

[feral locust]

The only thing slightly off about Hogwarts legacy is tight pants for the women but I'm not complaining

[red finch]

Than can at least be explained by Wizarding folk being a bit more progressive. Women not wearing pants for modesty is a muggle thing.

Wizards also let men marry men and women marry women, there’s even a lesbian couple who are married in HL and they’re older witches too

Wearing skirts for modesty was mainly a Christian thing in the Victorian era. So it wouldn’t have translated into the Wizarding world though I’m sure that witches would wear skirts if amongst muggles to blend in.

[vivid mason]

Wearing skirt to stay cool is also a good reason to wear them. Very breezy & flowy, especially for the bigger ladies. Always love me a good skirt during the summer. 🥰

[blazing grotto]

In the goblet of fire, Archie really liked that breezy feeling

[feral locust]

Hermione as deatheater

[blazing grotto]

Also no shoes. Her poor feet.

[feral locust]

In the books she was halfway to Slytherin
Throwing a whole person into a jar

Checks out

[feral locust]

But okay?

[blazing grotto]

It’s just gonna be cold and messy.

[boreal pine]

They should make a harry potter "what if..?" comic series

or a short tv series

[feral locust]

Oh god. Please no people already think the movies are canon

I'm begging you don't give warner Bros any ideas

[red finch]

We had a “what if” in Cursed Child lol

And Cursed Child wasn’t accepted well by the fandom and is still a point of contention and derision by many, even if JKR says it’s canon.

[graceful solstice]

Vursed Vhikd....

[topaz dagger]

Her typing was cursed.

[graceful solstice]

True...

[red finch]

The joys of the v and c letters being right next to each other and having poor depth perception because I’m literally blind lol

[red finch]

cursed child being that bad it cursed me hah

[feral locust]

Because of forest?

[topaz dagger]

Please let the show get Hermione's hair right...

[worthy thistle]

Can someone pls just tell me the animals lol I only want the field guide page hahaha

[topaz dagger]

Are you sure there's a field guide page in that room?

[worthy thistle]

According to the guide I’m looking at yeah 🤣

[topaz dagger]

Welp, you could always try random combinations until the door opens.

[graceful solstice]

There should be a guide in a box on a table that explains what numbers the creatures are

[worthy thistle]

Is does but numbers honestly confuse me

[unique river]

me when I forget the code to my gym locker combination

[topaz dagger]

Luckily there's fewer possible combinations for this.

[feral locust]

Don't randomly do it systematically do it
Leave one on one symbol change the other rinse and repeat

[topaz dagger]

That's what I do.

[feral locust]

Imo best way over going into menu everytime and checking cheat sheet

[red finch]

Don’t even need the cheat sheet

The order of the animals on the door is 0-9

I was doing these fine at launch way before I even found the cheat sheet.

They’re easy to remember

Demiguise is 0 because it can dissaoear

Unicorn is 1 because it has 1 horn

Graphorn is 2 because it has 2 horns

Runespoor is 3 because it has 3 heads

Fwooper is 4 because they have 4 colour variants

Quintaped is 5 because it has 5 legs (arms?)

Fire Salamanders are 6 because they can survive outside if a fire for a maximum of 6 hours

7 is the unknown beast and it’s unknown why that was chosen but easy enough to remember as the weird one

8 is Acromantula because it has 8 eyes (you could use kegs too if that’s easier)

9 is Hydra because it has 9 heads

[unique river]

starting with zero and not one messed me up the first few times 💀

[red finch]

You don’t need to go the convoluted way of testing every combination.

Just look at the numbers/symbols

Do a little addition and then turn the corresponding wheel to the right animal for the number you need

[dull canyon]

7 looks like a dementor head or slender man

or a tick

[unique river]

I always called seven the octopus 😆

[dull canyon]

it looks like that aswell

[unique river]

@red finch
OMG OMG OMG

imagine if 7 is a boggart 🤯

[topaz dagger]

Is it just me, or is it weird that we’ve never heard of any other three-headed dogs besides Fluffy?

[topaz dagger]

can’t stop imagining that now

[feral locust]

Why poppy gotta make me walk all the way through the forbidden forest for her mission
Seriously inconsiderate

[red finch]

There’s the Runespoor?

Best snek with 3 heads

Each one serving a different purpose!

Runespoors are a personal fave and I have an OC who keeps a Runespoor as her pet/companion after rescuing it as a chikd (it has a clubbed tail because it was injured)

[topaz dagger]

But that’s a three-headed snake, not a three-headed dog.

[red finch]

Trying to think of how that might correlate though

No one know the true form of a boggart because they take the form of what a lets in feels most to feed in their fear

[topaz dagger]

But what if you put a camera in a cabinet where a boggart was hiding?

[unique river]

maybe there was once someone whose biggest fear was boggarts lol

[blazing grotto]

“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself”

[topaz dagger]

And also spiders.

[red finch]

The camera wouldn’t work, seeing as things powered by electricity don’t work around magical things.

[feral locust]

Hogwarts legacy be like I'ma hang signs outside of areas with spiders so you know

Gamers be like WHY IS THERE SPIDERS

[topaz dagger]

Magic camera.

[unique river]

Sirius mirror ✨

[red finch]

Can only do ones that take photos, not film anything.

And that’s assuming a boggart can even be photographed.

Which it might not.

So you’d see nothing.

[feral locust]

Bogart's have no natural state known to wizard kind

[unique river]

they take the form of whatever scare the view. presumably they have a natural state, but it changes when it’s observed 0.o

[feral locust]

Rate my wand

[unique river]

I was joking before, but in theory if someone was afraid of boggarts it might work

[unique river]

it looks nice

I like the spiral ones also, but prefer black

[feral locust]

Same, I like the dark green stain on it too. Always think of it as moss on the wood.

[feral locust]

Like the wand, the handle is not my type though.

[unique river]

irl I have a replica of sirius’s wand

[feral locust]

Pretty cool detail
I destroyed this bridge in a fight now can repair it

[red finch]

Still need to sort the wands for Cameron and Nero

But here’s Alyth’s and Lyell’s, my Ravenclaw and Huffiepuff respectively

[unique river]

the white marble is so clean and pretty 🥰

[red finch]

Yesss I love it for Lyell’s, and the little moon like thing.

Fitting considering the OC version of Lyell is a werewolf lol

Alyth’s is more natural, either the botanical handle because she’s a Potioneer/Healer so it’s more nature like

[feral locust]

Spiral wand or bust tbh

All the most powerful witches and wizards have a similarly designed wand lol

[unique river]

I like the design, but we don’t have too many examples of spiral wands in the movies, and tbh I don’t remember if they were mentioned in the books.

[feral locust]

I was joking in reference to Isadora
Also fun tidbit everyone originaly thought we had her wand passed down

But no it was just a odd conwikidink of wand choice 🤣

[feral locust]

Natty please takes notes on how to be a good side charecter

Please take this egg in this trying time poppy

[red finch]

Finally got Cam their wand,

Going to keep trying to finish up Nero’s planned outfit before I progress to get his wand,

Just need the Aristocratic Ensemble

[brittle oyster]

woah.

[feral locust]

Very Slytherin

[unique river]

this character looks a lot like Tom Riddle o.0

[red finch]

Nero pls
We have been save scumming this chest for so long, just get the damn outfit so you can be the grumpy, rich Pureblood boyo I need you to be.

[red finch]

Blue eyes though

Tom had dark brown like Tom Riddle Sr

The films changed that

[feral locust]

You're save scummin one chest for one outfit? Jfc lok

[red finch]

Look at this little idiot.

Duelist, has an affinity for magical beasts, hates Herbology

Generally nice to people. Will take you shopping for an outfit

[red finch]

I like having my characters in their designated outfits for the cutscenes..l even the charms and DADA ones.

Even if it takes me a while, I make this sacrifice for my screenshots to obsess over my dumb characters lol

[feral locust]

That makes sense, I can't really argue I soft reset for nine hours for gloves that matched my outfit

[delicate canyon]

I need help with the rookwood trial. I am completely stuck.

All the walk-throughs I've seen are for platforms other than the switch and I believe they've changed a few mechanics in the switch version.

Sorry if this is rambling. Not sure how else to explain.

I am at the trial with the "invisible" enemies. I already defeated them and now I'm trying to get out of this area.

When I hit the thing on the wall, my arch doesn't move.

I have pulled the cube through the arch and placed it back in its original spot where the walk-throughs show.
I went back thru the arch. But my pillar doesn't reach the pathway.
I've tried moving it to the end but it's not tall enough.
I've tried levitating it and climbing, it's not tall enough.

Please help. Idk what I'm doing wrong and I'm just annoyed at this point. 😭

[feral locust]

Leave the cube where it spawns
Hit the button
Climb up
Hit button again
Bridge will swing back over

That simple

[delicate canyon]

The button doesn't do anything.

I've tried so many times. Nothing moves

[feral locust]

The button higher up swings the bridge above you back and forth

Above you on wall

[red finch]

The sacrifices we make for fashion.

The time I spent trying to get the cobalt debonair ensemble and cobalt embellished overcoat fir Alyth was mad

And she needed the LEAST things lol

[delicate canyon]

I think I just need to exit the game and reopen. Those little buttons aren't moving anything. I've tried like every spell😭

[feral locust]

Yeah the button should make the bridge above the portal spin

[delicate canyon]

Nevermind!!! I walked away and "restarted" this stage and now it worked!!!

Ugh. I've been trying for a good 20-30 minutes.

Thanks!!!

[feral locust]

No problem!!! It can be confusing at first

[feral locust]

||Got to the quest where I became Black, and then had to find the headmaster's elf. I saw sharp and thought it was Black and hid and waited for him to go away XD||

[unique river]

@solemn wagon please assist

[solemn wagon]

OH YOUUUUUUUU

Now that’s funny

[feral locust]

Yus. I even got mad at Fig and callled him a liar. I figured I'd get caught and restart, but then it turned out it was Sharp! XD

[dull canyon]

moody may but then it may just have shapeshifted

[feral locust]

Would you consider transforming people into exploding barrels evil. Kinda want to use it on my death eater build lol

[dull canyon]

and thats assuming it has a true form

maybe its a formless entity

[topaz dagger]

Nahhhh.

[dull canyon]

i like these

those people are tryna kill ya. screw them

[red finch]

Like Poltergeists.. who are normally invisible but some choose to take a physical form (like Peeves)

Makes sense as Boggarts form the sane as Denentors and Poltergeists. They’re Amortal ninja beings that weren’t born, they form due to high concentrations of certain emotions/ states

[topaz dagger]

Amortal?

[red finch]

Thanks! I like the wands to reflect elements of the characters that use them! Even if it’s elements for them as OCs rather than HL MCs

As my HL characters are all just my OCs repurposed for HL lol

[dull canyon]

A state of never being alive to begin with. Thus they cannot die.

Phoenixes are supposedly immortal but they are alive thus immortal is used as the definition for them

Poltergeist are not alive in the biological sense and are seemingly unkillable.

thus Amortal is used

Death if it exists as an entity would prob be considered Amortal

[topaz dagger]

Oicoic.

What spell are you using to sit?

[brittle oyster]

shh

[shut marlin]

Yep

[silk lava]

Ohohoh you can't post le third party stuff here

[ripe falcon]

i use mods

[silk lava]

It's against DA RULES

[ripe falcon]

wait what?

[silk lava]

Ye boi

It's banned

[shut marlin]

Literally the first rule

[brittle oyster]

okay, if i knew you were using those, i wouldn’t have told you where to post them.

[ripe falcon]

oh! okay sorry aobut that i didnt know lolol

[silk lava]

Nah don't worry about it

[brittle oyster]

it’s fine. it’s just not allowed in this server, unfortunately.

[ripe falcon]

sadlyy

[silk lava]

You can post them in fan servers

I'm in one at least

But it's mostly just me and my friends

[feral locust]

The only modifying this game needs is you downloading the dark arts content provided if you didn't get the deluxe edition

[shut marlin]

???

[brittle oyster]

i don’t know either.

[shut marlin]

Girl what are you saying here

[red finch]

Why does all the weird stuff happen at 4am?

[feral locust]

I didn't verbally speak it, you can re read what you don't understand

The only difference between mod and dlc is one is company made
It's a clear joke lol

[rich prawn]

Typical ominis moment

Damn I almost busted out my popcorn i was hoping you'd contuine to play dumb

[feral locust]

Take an egg I had spawn in this trying time

[shut marlin]

So then you are suggesting stealing the Dark Arts pack, which would be very much not allowed

[rich prawn]

You know full well that's not what was said
You can stop holding a grudge over a two week old conversation, about to be three weeks old actually 🍿

[shut marlin]

No, I don't actually, because what she said was confusing and she refuses to elaborate, and that's the only other way to interpret it

Also I didn't even know I was talking to Najara or whatever her name is

[rich prawn]

No it wasn't confusing she said the only additional content the game needed was the dark arts pack if you didn't get the deluxe edition

She then clarified it was a joke and explained the only difference between mods and dlc is ones company made

You should be tagging a mod if you think she's suggesting you pirate the dlc as you claim

[shut marlin]

Okay. The conversation was about mods so framing it as a mod was a needlessly confusing way to phrase it

[rich prawn]

It wasnt use your noggin to think, what's the saying, listen to understand not to respond

[shut marlin]

I literally tried to understand by asking for clarification but go off I guess

As for 'you should be tagging a mod' have you not noticed I don't ping the mods for every single infraction of the rules

[feral locust]

You guys are breaking rule 1 rn just relax if he didn't understand the joke oh well lol

[silk lava]

I don't see why I need to punish Scarlett for a harmless mistake

[shut marlin]

There isn't

[silk lava]

They're new and wasn't aware of the rules

[shut marlin]

Exactly

Even though it's literally the first rule in the channel but still

[silk lava]

Plus people were not aware of what's being used

[brittle oyster]

people don’t really read the rules anymore.

[shut marlin]

Which is dumb

[silk lava]

But it's not like they were being malicious or anything

[shut marlin]

Yeah

[silk lava]

Just a harmless mistake

[rich prawn]

Most servers stop you from accessing the server until you click I have read rules, it is not the case here? I don't recall from when I joined

[shut marlin]

No.

[rich prawn]

They should do that then

[shut marlin]

It should imo, but it doesn't

[silk lava]

People can literally just press buttons. Doesn't mean they do

But who cares? We've all moved on from this

[shut marlin]

Well yeah but then they wouldn't have an excuse

[silk lava]

No need to dogpile on Scarlett

[shut marlin]

We're not

[silk lava]

Oh not you

I was referring to the other people trying to drag it on

[rich prawn]

Dogpiling is 4 or more people as per the definition

[red finch]

The only bot the server has can’t even manage to show the correct numbers for Slytherin and Huffiepuff, having another bot to control people agreeing to the rules before being able to access the server isn’t going to happen

[shut marlin]

No, it's a community server feature

Just one they haven't enabled

[rich prawn]

Ya it's standard discord feature, like requiring using a cell on your discord

[silk lava]

It could interfere with server perms

And the bot's perms

[shut marlin]

Not if it's being run by someone competent

[silk lava]

Plus bot managing large servers is very difficult

Since this one is the official servers

[shut marlin]

I'm in a server with multiple bots that also forces people to read the rules before participating and the bots don't have any problems

[red finch]

Yup

Considering House Bot is broken

[silk lava]

API likely got overloaded

When there's approximately hundreds of thousands in this server

[rich prawn]

The official server bots only get overloaded during mass join events like a game launch
100k people would have to join at once within 10mins

Well, or a raid

[dim cypress]

Onboarding would let you do a lot of things easily

Unless this already has it

[feral locust]

Where i get the key necklace type scarf?. Not the key scarf design

[bold agate]

What spell do I use on these plz

[feral locust]

The yellow one that symbol matches the symbol :p

[bold agate]

Thanks

[boreal pine]

levioso

and where is this

[feral locust]

I'm not sure which option I like more
Gaslighting ominis into letting us leave with the relic
Or
Casting imperio on him

Both options are sufficiently evil

That's what I've found humorous throughout my three playthroughs
At multiple points throughout Sebastians quests you are undeniably evil, even if you say no to the curses
I can't really see a Hufflepuff or Gryffindor doing half of these things
By this point you've gaslighted ominis twice , used his dead aunt against him , vowed not to do it again and done so anyway
Bonus points if you tell ominis you'll tell him if Sebastian is up to anything (and you won't tell ominis anything) that's another not nice thing to do lol

And you've also snuck into the restricted section once and broke cerfew twice 😂
There's no gameplay ramifications to being up at night but Sebastian mentions you won't get caught just before you gaslight ominis for the first time

I like if you DON'T cast imperio Sebastian is jealous and suspicious of your relationship with ominis too 😂

[shut marlin]

That's not what 'gaslighting' is.

[rich prawn]

gas·light
verb
gerund or present participle: gaslighting
"manipulate (someone) using psychological methods or as a form of abuse"

Using his aunt against him
Constantly making him do stuff he isn't okay with
Ect ect
Falls under gaslighting specifically the abuse part

What is Gaslighting? Gaslighting is the action of repetitively (and often brazenly) lying to someone to manipulate, and ultimately control them and the relationship. It could be divided into four different types: outright lying, manipulation of reality, scapegoating and coercion.Jan 10, 2023

Outright lying to control the relationship, manipulation to get what you want
Coercion
Check check check

[shut marlin]

Gaslighting is a very specific form of psychological manipulation in which you convince the victim that they are mentally unstable and cannot trust their own perception of the world around them, thereby forcing them to rely on you to tell them what's 'real' and what isn't. It originated from the film of the same name, where the main character's husband employs the same method against her.

[rich prawn]

That's one form of gaslighting there is many and they all have different effects

I swear you argue with Nava just to argue let your three week old beef go

[red finch]

What you’re doing to Ominis is just straight up manipulation.

Just like Sebastian is doing to you

[shut marlin]

No, I call out misuse of psychological terms as a victim of mental and emotional abuse who has a very personal interest in making sure such things do not lose all meaning.

[rich prawn]

You literally do everything in this picture to ominis

My finger is too fat for this

[shut marlin]

Literally where do we make him question his memory or sanity.

[rich prawn]

Bruh am I gunna have to spoon feed you lines of dialogue and lore

[shut marlin]

Where do we construct a false narrative or attempt to reshape events he was literally there for.

[rich prawn]

You know what I'ma pass on this one
It's giving troll
Even siren straight up told you you manipulate ominis

[shut marlin]

But we do not gaslight him.

[chilly oracle]

Debating the definition of a word used to describe psychological manipulation probably isn't what this channel is for. But I think we can all agree we were not good people at all to Ominis

[feral locust]

I didn't even feel a need to respond to him to begin with lol @rich prawn

[red finch]

Manipulation and Gaslughting are different.

Regular manipulation is still different from gaslighting.

We manipulate Ominis

Like how Seb manipulates us using his charm

[chilly oracle]

Sebastian made me feel a little icky

The vibe was off

[feral locust]

Manipulation is part of gaslighting
You go farther than standard manipulation using his aunt against him

[chilly oracle]

As I just said we dont need to debate the terminology tho

[shut marlin]

Gaslighting is manipulation, yes, but not all manipulation is gaslighting

[feral locust]

Well if a mod saying don't debate the terminology I won't continue it farther

[shut marlin]

Alright, fine

[chilly oracle]

Sorry guys Just to keep general peace

[rich prawn]

I'm back to lurking until the next topic then lol

[red finch]

Right?

Even if you’re a Slytherin, the first time he sees you he’s a bit standoffish with the way he says “Can I help you?”

Then when he realises who you are, his vibe changes to be more friendly. Because you survived a dragon attack and you’re starting school unusually late.

So you’re a prime target to drag into his schemes

Then he has you convince Ominis to go along with things multiple times because his own attempts have failed.

Seb 100% using his charm to manipulate MC because they don’t really know any better

[chilly oracle]

But Sebastian's storyline imo was the best because of the way his character was portrayed. I feel like he had much more personality than some other friends & companions

Because he wasnt entirely a good person but he tried

[rich prawn]

It's worth noting how jealous he is of you and ominis aswell
And also worth noting how much ominis immediately likes and trusts you which you immediately use against him to help Sebastian

[chilly oracle]

He felt ick to me tho

[rich prawn]

Several times he questions the relationship between you and ominis

[feral locust]

As early as if you peacefully talk your way out of the imperious dungeon ^

Later hell straight up ask what's going on between you two implying romance "ish"

[chilly oracle]

I need to finish the game damn

[red finch]

Very icky at times

“Hey we need to use Crucio to get out, I know I know crucio but I want you to ask Ominis to cast it. Even though I know he has trauma associated with it and an aversion to the Dark Arts”

Like bruh that’s your best friend

And you KNOW he has personal experience and none of it good

But yes, ask him to relive his trauma

[feral locust]

Sebastian has alot of misable text I'm sure most people will just end up casting imperious curse on ominis

Or will do the goblin dungeon before the Sebastian missions missing more text

[unique river]

be nice to swift 💔

[chilly oracle]

Sebby dont give a damn about no one but his own agenda

[red finch]

We love Swift

[feral locust]

Just to secretly admit he knows how to cast it
Then later teaching us imperio for no reason

[chilly oracle]

omg

[unique river]

don’t let swift see this 🤭

[feral locust]

I still stan the little flawed eggs of Isadora and Sebastian
Good writing

[chilly oracle]

Flawed characters are best characters

See Anders & Solas from DA

[rich prawn]

I'd recon Sebastian has about 30 lines of misable dialogue depending what order you do quests

[feral locust]

I romance Solas everytime it's why I say flawed eggs

[red finch]

cries in Mage Kirkwall Champion and Mage Lavellan

[feral locust]

😂

[chilly oracle]

same

[red finch]

Solas a literal flawed egg

[chilly oracle]

Solas is my #1 boio

[feral locust]

Wasn't it canon to be a warrior in da2? And elf in dai?

I'm trying to remember what the default options were but can't

[red finch]

Same

Still not over it.

ITS BEEN YEARS SOLAS

[chilly oracle]

He is still my discord banner

[feral locust]

Unfortunately da4 has been delayed Multiple times
Last I seen devs were quiting

[chilly oracle]

ill do anythin

[feral locust]

Irrespective of Scott's update, Dragon Age: Dreadwolf has been cursed with delay after delay; with the game's developer laying off over 50 developers in mid-2023, many fans of the Dragon Age franchise have become

And before that they were taking live service elements out and turning into singleplayer

[silk lava]

I actually disliked Anders

💀

[chilly oracle]

Gasp.

How could U.

[silk lava]

I was nice to him once and I get forced into a romance route I never asked for

[chilly oracle]

You can fix him ❤️

[silk lava]

[chilly oracle]

Yes u do wym

[crimson musk]

Sera and Solas 🖤

[red finch]

@silk lava

Big silly ballon

[boreal pine]

yoo whats this

is it a mod

[red finch]

Acromantula with Arachnaphobia mode switched on

[boreal pine]

NAHH

[red finch]

Nope!

Arachnophobia mode in the Accessibility settings

[boreal pine]

every arachnid got riddikulus-ed

[red finch]

Yup!

Every spider in the game gets that.

The only thing that doesn’t change is the enemy portraits in the collections tab buttt that’s not as bad

[boreal pine]

yeaa them arachnophobics need to handle it a little

[crimson musk]

😂

[red finch]

Look at it

Silly lil guy

[crimson musk]

Its so cute and silly xD

[topaz dagger]

Oh, okay, we'll just handle our crippling fear. No big deal. :3

[feral locust]

Well yes, spiders and harry potter go hand in hand

[topaz dagger]

Of course. Literally physically impossible to have a Harry Potter story without spiders.

[feral locust]

Well yes, they're mentioned in almost every book most prominent in book 2 chamber of secrets

-ron

[topaz dagger]

My point is that you can theoretically write a Harry Potter fanfiction without mentioning spiders once. So, no, not exactly hand-in-hand.

[feral locust]

A fan fiction wouldn't void the hand in hand nature of HP and spiders unfortunately because a fan fiction is fake/ non canon

[topaz dagger]

Magic is integral to Harry Potter. Spiders are not.

[feral locust]

Integral wasn't the adjective used previously

Integral means needed to work
Hand in hand means where there's Harry they'll be spiders

[boreal pine]

Ron's wish got answered centuries earlier

"Follow the butterflies" quest

[topaz dagger]

Sorry, no, spiders play a very small role in the overall lore. I can't think of an instance in Prisoner of Azkaban, for example, where they were remotely significant.

[feral locust]

Why do you always argue small points that you're wrong about?

[topaz dagger]

How am I wrong about that?

[feral locust]

Previously you argued the relationship between houses and how family's often get sorted into the same house

No you're pretending spiders aren't part of HP lore

[topaz dagger]

I didn't say they aren't part of it! I said they aren't important to the overall lore; there are times when they are important, but there are times when their existence is just a background fact.

[rich prawn]

The Bogart is a significant piece of lore introduced in book three, so wrong

[topaz dagger]

Most events in the HP universe occur entirely independent of them.

[rich prawn]

I think polttie is just confused on what hand in hand means
They don't have to be part of every major event they just have to be there in the world

[topaz dagger]

Oh, yeah, I forgot the fact that Ron's boggart affected the plot. Probably because it didn't.

[rich prawn]

Hufflepuff moment

[topaz dagger]

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

[rich prawn]

Bogart lore is still significant and a spider was featured
Die mad I guess

[topaz dagger]

By that definition, ants go hand-in-hand with Harry Potter.

[red finch]

It’s very significant that spiders flee when a Basilisk is active

Without that fact, Harry and Ron wouldn’t have gotten more info about what happened before Hargird was expelled

[rich prawn]

That's too stupid to reply to I'm sorry

[topaz dagger]

We were talking about Prisoner of Azkaban. Nobody's going to argue that they aren't significant in Chamber of Secrets.

[topaz dagger]

Ants are "there in the world." Therefore, they go hand-in-hand.

[feral locust]

Hufflepuff moment indeed

[topaz dagger]

That literally doesn't mean anything.

[red finch]

Aragog (well his corpse) also plays a significant role in Half Blood Prince as without him existing (and dying) there wouldn’t be a perfect reason to get Slughorn drunk and spilling the beans about Tim Riddle or giving the very important memory to Harry

[topaz dagger]

Agreed.

What I'm saying is, magic cannot be taken out of Harry Potter without the lore being completely unrecognizable; the fact that magic exists in this universe is fundamental to everything else. However, there did not need to be gigantic spiders. Aragog could have been any number of other horrifying creatures and served the same role.

Not to mention that, as I said, most events in the HP universe occur independently of said gigantic spiders, or even the non-gigantic ones.

So "spiders" and "Harry Potter" aren't exactly synonymous.

Just because spiders exist in the HP universe does not mean they go 'hand-in-hand' with it, any more than cars go hand-in-hand with Harry Potter simply because cars are frequently mentioned throughout the series.

[feral locust]

Book 3
The boggart in the form of a giant spider that Ron faced off in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban closely resembles a black widow, with the exception of its size, which may have been the result of his encounter with the much larger sized Acromantulas.

Book 2:
Aragog is an Acromantula, a rare giant spider whose venom is very useful in potions. He was raised by Rubeus Hagrid and is very loyal to him. He regards all other humans as prey. We first see him in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

There's another spider scene in POA (the third movie) when they're practicing the "riddikulus" curse. It's there for like 10 seconds, then it transforms into something else. There's also a giant dead spider in HBP for one fairly short scene (it's when Harry and Slughorn go down to Hagrid's hut). And I believe there are a few in the last movie shown briefly during the fight scene near the end.

Book 4
Bartemius Crouch Junior's spiders
At once, the spider's legs bent in upon its body; it rolled over and began to twitch horribly, rocking from side to side. No sound came from it, but Harry was sure that if it could have given voice, it would have been screaming. Moody did not remove his wand, and the spider started to shudder and jerk more violently-
"MOODY" DEMONSTRATING THE CRUCIATUS CURSE ON ONE THESE SPIDERS

Book 6
Aragog (well his corpse) also plays a significant role in Half Blood Prince as without him existing (and dying) there wouldn’t be a perfect reason to get Slughorn drunk and spilling the beans about Tim Riddle or giving the very important memory to Harry
I stole this since siren already posted it

Book 7: In the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows book, it's revealed that these are the same Acromantulas (minus Aragog, of course) that joined the fight at the Battle of Hogwarts

Spiders are apart of integral lore across all the books and even come help save the day in the final battle
This message would be MUCH

Longer if I included every instance of spiders in Harry Potter
I already hit the message limit after "MUCH"

I could send atleast two more max messages with all the spider lore in Harry Potter

You're just wrong on this one bro lol

[topaz dagger]

Again. Aragog did not need to be a spider in order to have the impact that he did. And Bartemius could have Crucio'ed a mouse and had the exact same effect.

[feral locust]

I was 6000 letters in red when I tried to send all information and spider lore at once
You just wrong at this moment lol

What I sents a small part

[topaz dagger]

I disagree.

[feral locust]

The overwhelming evidence disagrees with your disagreement
I'm sure the mods wouldn't want 4 walls of max text messages though lol

[topaz dagger]

In the books, they might feature rather prominently, but in the lore overall they don't. And even in the books, there's no reason that it is essential for them to be spiders.

[feral locust]

Your final point is irrelevant
They are spiders so they are spiders and it's canon
Argument they could of been something else don't change lore

If you want I can rework my messages to include all the spider lore
But I might get a spam warning and it would be a waste of time
