[fallen saddle]

And Sebastian (a minor so the sentence should be shorter than normal) murdered the goblin

[fallen saddle]

Cry like he normally does

[fossil marlin]

And let his sister die?

[fallen saddle]

Naw we'd save her

While he cries

[fallen saddle]

I want you to take a moment and think about what you are saying, he could of used any spell to save his sister but decided to commit a crime, stop simping for Sebastián he's a murderet

[fallen saddle]

Stop simping for ms Weasley

[fallen saddle]

I can't I have a sweet tooth and she gots what i need

[fallen saddle]

Naaawww

The MC is a minor

(I believe)

And she's like 50

Nawwwww the Mc is 18 trust

No trust

[fossil marlin]

He did the right thing

[fallen saddle]

Why lie to yourself

[fossil marlin]

Because you are being disrespectful to him

[fossil marlin]

You don’t understand which is insane

[fallen saddle]

You are just wrong

[fossil marlin]

Nou

Boomer

[mental pilot]

He did the right thing by saving his sister. He did the wrong thing by using an illegal curse when he could’ve just stunned the goblin, expelliarmus’d the axe, or other legal spells that they* do teach at Hogwarts.

It was also a stupid thing to do using illegal spells in front of a whole bunch of people. Even if you know them you shouldn’t advertise it.

[dry anvil]

Hi hi omg I am having such a hard time beating the knights in the last room of the Antechamber !!! I need some tips please !

[fallen saddle]

make sure you have TONS and I mean TONS of healing potions

tbh to have healing potions on the ready

is SUPER helpfull

[sour pendant]

Antechamber?

[ionic haven]

You need to block the blockable hits and parry them

[dry anvil]

Thank you thank you!!!

It was sooo hard but I did it

[rare oar]

if you wanted to do another playthrough you could try it without any consumables for an extra challenge 🙂

[rare oar]

just curious are you playing on hard or normal?

[dry anvil]

Normal ! I am not used to any action games so I’m a little slow on my reaction time😂

[rare oar]

Thats ok, everyone has their own pace and its a single player game so no pressure

[modest glade]

Tbh that's what I dislike the most about this sequence. There was zero point in using Imperio in that situation over a huge amount of other spells - Crucio and AK both had a narrative reason but Imperio was just like... why?

[astral wolf]

Try to get a maximum of edurus and maxima potions

Then upgrade them in the talents section

Edurus will make you almost unkillable

Maxima will double the damage your spells usually do

Ik u finished it but these potions are the key to be unstoppable

[dry anvil]

Thank you!!!

[ocean relic]

guys how i get avada kedavra after i missed it

i think i also turned sebastian in

i kept leaving and coming back in undercroft but still cant find him after that

[deep cypress]

If you turned him in then there’s no way to get it

You’re out of luck

You’ll have to start a new game as there’s no way to get AK if you didn’t pick it up during the quest and then turned him in

[ocean relic]

damn

its the only spell i want and was excited for and after all that i missed 😢

nah im not starting new game its so painful to do all the work i did on this character the main and side quests

well i guess i have to keep going without it then

[ionic haven]

You can just rollback to an earlier save you know?

[ocean relic]

sadly i dont have manually saves so im doomed

[ionic haven]

....

Skill issue

[dry anvil]

Hi I am having such a HARD time passing the flight test with Imelda Reyes ! Any tips?

[sour pendant]

Practice flying and maneuvering at high speeds. Or lower your difficulty setting. Or both. :)

[high gate]

Have you heard the How To Train Your Dragon Theme music playing in the background while riding on the Graphorn mission?

[rigid oriole]

YES I ALWAYS THINK THAT

I don’t think it’s exactly the same but the first time I heard it I just went “hang on this sounds familiar”

It took me ages to actually realise where it was from lol

[high gate]

I was waiting for someone else to say this because either I'm crazy or my ears are working properly.

[high gate]

It's nice to hear a reference from a different universe than the Wizarding World.

[deep cypress]

Yeah it’s not a 1:1 copy it just sounds similar.

And the human brain is wired to recognise patterns and familiarity, so to those who know the HTTYD theme in question are more wired to hear the similarities and think it’s the same, while someone who doesn’t know that HTTYD theme will hear the differences more than the similarities.

Again, it’s not the same theme, it’s just similar sounding and the brain does the rest,

[low mauve]

Yee

[rigid oriole]

I’ll listen to them side by side in a bit

I’m playing life is strange and it’s so sad 💔

[high gate]

This is already valid for the general music of the game. They changed most of the notes on purpose, which they themselves explained. The notes in that music are the same as HTTYD, but then they change.

[raw osprey]

Hi

[deep cypress]

self promo isn’t allowed jsyk

[raw osprey]

Oh? I read the rules and didn’t see that I couldn’t post this!?!?

[deep cypress]

rule 7,

“7.No spamming, business solicitation, or other advertising without prior approval. Any type of soliciting will result in your immediate removal from the server. Please do not advertise other Discords or websites, even if they are related to the game, without prior administrator approval. Trying to gain petition support falls under this rule, as well.”

Personal YouTube channels, twitch links etc all count as self promo

[raw osprey]

I edited the post, however those rules do not state anything about self promo?!?. Not trying to cause a scene at all, but if there is an explicit rule against sharing content about the game, the rules should clearly state that

For example, your bio has your psn and twitch accounts attached, which would fall under self promo?!?!

[deep cypress]

You can ask the <@&755190193367023772> if you want

[deep cypress]

I don’t stream on twitch, my account is just connected to my discord, same for my PSN.

Self promo would be me going “Hey guys! Go to my profile to find my twitch and PSN! And add/follow me!”

As I don’t promote them with a message, it’s not self promotion.

Having account linked to my discord isn’t something that can be moderated, me saying to look at what I have linked and watch/follow them, IS something that can be moderated

[grand nebula]

So, I know that Natty, Sebastian and Poppy are meant to act as 'companions' but, outside of their friendship quests, can you call upon them to accompany you across the world??
How do I go about doing that?

[low mauve]

Nope.

[grand nebula]

Ah... so why are they called 'companions' then

makes no sense

[low mauve]

They only accompany you for certain quests; there was a mechanic in development where you could have various classmates accompany you for some quests unrelated to their friendship questlines, but it was scrapped.

[grand nebula]

Ah..

[sour pendant]

Q-Q

[waxen falcon]

okay can someone tell me how worried i should be about san bakar's trial? i found the last one terrifying so how long should i procrastinate doing it for

[deep cypress]

The 4th trial is stupid easy lol don’t worry

[waxen falcon]

thank you 😭

how much longer (roughly) is left of the game after it too?

[sour pendant]

Not a whole lot.

[waxen falcon]

aww

[wooden sail]

Any tips on getting past fitzgerald's trial? I'm stuck

[sour pendant]

Why are you stuck?

[wooden sail]

I am having difficulty getting past the death guards, I believe that I am miscalculating when to go

[sour pendant]

Yeah, those can be tricky.

I always breathe a sigh of relief once I get past that part, 'cause it's all downhill from there.

[wooden sail]

I believe it. It freaks me out and honestly, that could play a part in why I'm having difficulty.

[ripe turret]

Why does everything look so upscaled in game lol. Wish I can send a screeenie here

[ebon arch]

It's quite weird that developers added Avada Kedavra without considering the fact that some cutscenes and quest elements would change, two examples:

1. Because I used it against ||Rookwood|| (Wand Mastery spoiler), he can't just appear and give another quick time event instantly after his death, how is that possible
2. I did the same to one of the trolls in the final mission, how can it appear and be very alive in the following cutscene?

[sour pendant]

You didn't mean it enough.

[ebon arch]

Then if this were the case, how can it be that the player character means it enough against a simple dark mongrel... but not against a leader of a massive criminal organisation that has been a constant enemy?

[sour pendant]

shrug Don't ask me to explain your character's priorities. O-O

[ebon arch]

"you brought this on yourself"
meets person who definitely brought it on themselves
doesn't mean it while casting Avada Kedavra
narrative at it's peak

[fallen saddle]

That's accurate avada kedavra though you can cast it fine 50 times but if you don't mean it once even a little but it'll know

[pulsar delta]

I just want to get something off my chest about a certain… auror

[deep cypress]

Which one? lol

Solomon? Sharp?

[pulsar delta]

Neither

Officer Singer

Can I just say how it took two underage students (the main character and natty) to gather the evidence against rookwood and Harlow and their criminal BS, and that this officer was not doing this work herself (even though she is an auror). Isn’t she PAID to do the work that a couple of minors did out of care for the world? 🤔

[pulsar delta]

The lack of action/concern coming from this woman is making me think she is secretly in on it..

It’s just… her lack of doing anything as an auror is giving me the ick

It seems dodgy lmao

There seems to be a lot of adult witches/wizards leaving the serious deadly work to a bunch of students lmao

mad eye moody would never let rookwood walk free 😤

[deep cypress]

I like the headcanon that she’s Harlows secret lady love, the one he blackmailed the tailors assistant to steal clothes for him to give her.

And she only turns on him at the culmination of Natty’s quest after she sees him try to use Crucio on MC and hit Natty instead

Then she’s like “oh damn I can’t let that slide now.”

Like there’s witnesses to him using an Unforgivale curse on students

I think she was kept in the dark of his darker proclivities, like kidnapping Archie and having murdered his dad and blackmailing most of Hogsmeade

[pulsar delta]

Yea she was either a victim or actually a villain

[pulsar delta]

Or a corrupt sympathiser

[fallen saddle]

Isoadora was right

[pulsar delta]

Power should be controlled and managed.

Not just unleashed freely into the world

Wars could potentially start because of power and knowledge and magic and what have you

[fallen saddle]

I have a question do you use a air conditioner

Or a fridge

[pulsar delta]

Uh… idk

[fallen saddle]

Well I'm sure you use somthing that has technology inside it that was previously used to wage war and murder people in foreign countries

Tldr isadoras work can be used the same way as we can take a attack helicopter and turn it into a Samsung kitchen appliance

It's very likely isodora could cure depression anxiety ect with a little more practice/ changing her spell
Like you take the same parts that make a machine gun shoot and make a dryer spin

I should change my house to slytherin tbh

[pulsar delta]

If that is how you feel represents you best

[fallen saddle]

My argument above is very slytherin lol
The murder objects can be used for good eventually

[pulsar delta]

I see what you are saying magic can be used for good and bad reasons but ppl need manage and control magic so it doesn’t get out of control

Hence why we need to make sure knowledge doesn’t get into bad hands

And given to trusted people

If someone had access to let’s say a knife trusted people can use it to make food use it to build and stuff

But bad people can use knife to hurt

Now imagine ancient magic is knife

[fallen saddle]

I would let the bad person use the knife so we can see new ways to use it that we wouldn't kf thought of

[pulsar delta]

Ranrok was about to use the ancient magic to destroy wizards which is why it BAD give power to anyone who want to use it for bad reasons

[pulsar delta]

Yeah we have two different way of thinking LMAO

[pulsar delta]

Magical innovation… nice

[golden current]

On the new minding your own business quest ||is it meant to be all black around in the final cutscene because it seems really out of place if you can help dm me and I can show you what I mean||

[lunar seal]

i assume it´s not
i had it as well

looked at old ps5 clips and ereven found one with the same issue on PS5 but not on others

if you are on PC like me, then i guess it is a specific setting which causes it

[eager hamlet]

Is it normal to have finished the whole story but barely do any of the side quests lol I really really should get to those

[barren tartan]

same lol

[nocturne lintel]

i got that too, it really ruined it for me

[thick inlet]

This game just got me good 🙂 I was impressed.

On the quest where you replace the dragon egg with poppy. Getting close to the nest I cast disillusionment. Poppy says "Good idea, but... she'll still be able to smell you." referring to Mama dragon 😄

Loved that bit

[sour pendant]

o: learned something new today

[mental pilot]

If only we learned the anti smell spell

[thick inlet]

15 conjuration items left to collect until 100% collection. So close! 🤞

[echo oasis]

you got this bud

[noble mango]

Lets go you can do this man

[proud chasm]

Guys, I missed the chance to learn avaeda kadabara from sebs, is their another way to learn it?

[sour pendant]

As long as you weren't a terrible person and didn't send him to Azkaban, I think you just have to go to the Undercroft.

[fading egret]

To me, sounds like something Ravenclaw would say, not Slytherin. A Luna train of thought, for sure. 🦅

[sleek sable]

no. youre supposed to do them as you progress through the story line. some give gear, skins, etc. but early on it helps you level way quicker. im lvl 34 and i havent even done the boss fight with ranrok yet.

[sour pendant]

I'm almost Level 37 and I haven't done the fourth trial yet.

[sleek sable]

i feel like that one is the easiest honestly

[jaunty jewel]

She's devastated! She just buried your uncle alone!

No matter what happens from here, I'm glad we met

[jaunty jewel]

3rd trial was so easy peasy omg

i one shotted the trolls with bombarda haha

[sour pendant]

Uncontested.

[sour pendant]

What difficulty are you playing on?

[jaunty jewel]

i think normal

i maxed out everything i had

i had concentration III on all my gear

[sour pendant]

Odd, because I play on Normal and there's no way I could one-shot the trolls.

That might do it.

[jaunty jewel]

concentration 3?

[sour pendant]

I don't bother putting traits on my gear, so that might be it.

[jaunty jewel]

i have concentration three on all my gear

[jaunty jewel]

i had 400 offense plus concentration 3

sooo idk

[nova mango]

Just finished that for the second time today lol

The trolls were annoying though, must say that.

[jaunty jewel]

easy peasy with 400 offense and concentration 3 on all armor

[tropic stag]

oh my lord yall, I just finished the main story and I am CRUSHED. I had to literally exit the game and take a breather. it was such a great story and I'm so sad that it's over. (but I do still have some side quests and exploration to do, so that's great! :D)

[mossy isle]

did you breed all the beasts?

[tropic stag]

me? no, not yet at least. I have plenty more that I need to do within the game, but that is one of my goals eventually :)

[mossy isle]

did you get the curses

[tropic stag]

I got two except the killing curse

[sour pendant]

Shhhh.

[low mauve]

Mods are against the game's ToU and as such it's not allowed to discuss them in the server

[untold tundra]

Ohh I'm sorry

[mossy isle]

damn I forgot Professor Fig dies at the end.

and I forgot it was Rookwood who cursed Anne

[nova mango]

That just hit different.

[nova mango]

killing him was so satisfactory tbh

[mossy isle]

Is there only one battle arena?

[low mauve]

There are two in base game, plus the Dark Arts battle arena if you bought the DLC.

[mossy isle]

Where's the second one?

[low mauve]

North ford bog

[mossy isle]

Found it. Easy as pie

[untold tundra]

Both endings I sobbed

[untold tundra]

Tbh I expected more of a fight but 😭

[nova mango]

No no fr

I just used Avada Kedavra and that dude was gone

[low mauve]

No, you didn't.

[nova mango]

I thought I did

I don’t remember the scene quite well, but I do remember using that spell

It has been a while since I’ve played

[low mauve]

It's not possible to kill Rookwood with AK, you only defeat him through the linked wands bit at the very end. If you try to use the Killing Curse on him before that point, a random Ashwinder Apparates in front of him and takes the hit instead.

Same thing happens with Harlow.

[nova mango]

Ahh I see

Yes I do remember the wand link

[mental pilot]

It used to be possible to hit Rookwood with AK, but it would just deplete his bar and you’d still have to link wands at the end. Then it was changed to the ashwinder version.

[ancient sand]

I forget if this was ever brought up, but what did everyone think of professor black when compared to his character in the books

[silk basalt]

https://tenor.com/view/otter-shock-shocked-otter-utterly-shocking-huh-gif-26697050

no way my boi sebastian just use his avada kadavra on his uncle

[mental pilot]

His uncle had it coming

[icy viper]

Not me crying cause lodgok died

[fallen saddle]

Womp womp

He was old anyway

[sour pendant]

Not cool.

[fallen saddle]

Tbh hes was

[icy viper]

Doesn’t make it any better damn

[sleek sable]

i mean would you guys rather it be 15 year old goblin? technically going by the lore and everything thats the equivalent of their toddler years. i dont know about you but i dont want to work with a crazy gob tod.

[whole raven]

Finally got the game to work on my PC (but it means playing at the lowest frame rate possible of 30 FPS) - struggling to get a grasp of the controls (my hand-eye coordination isn’t the best and there’s a lot of quick keyboard action required to succeed) - any tips?

[sour pendant]

Um…where in HP lore does it say how long goblins live?

[sleek sable]

movies. almost every movie has mentioned goblins being over 200. also jk rowling.

[sour pendant]

Please link me to where Rowling said this.

[deep cypress]

I don’t recall the movies saying anything about how long they live, nor JKR saying anything about it

[sour pendant]

Me either.

[hot peak]

im stuck at level 26 and i beat ranrok but like avada kedavra is at level 28 help- i am stuck at 26 exp gaining is so low

i tried battle arenas they only gave me like 60 xp total

[low mauve]

Do your Field Guide challenges. Do side quests.

[manic condor]

Did everyone ||unlock the Thestral Room by the Charms classroom|| because I thought it was actually really awe striking. I like the Thestral incorporation into the game a lot

[low mauve]

Huh?

[manic condor]

||One of the puzzle doors unlocks a Thestral room with two chests inside||

I can’t send a picture or else I would

[sour pendant]

Thestral...room?

[manic condor]

Yes!

[sour pendant]

blink I have never seen a thestral anywhere near the Charms classroom.

[manic condor]

Maybe I should be more specific. It’s the room that has the puzzle you have to unlock with the different animal symbols and when you guess the correct ones (I assume because I was just guessing until it opened) it opens to a room with a Thestral tapestry and thestral statues and a thestral Skelton along with two gold chests. I found it after leaving the charms classroom in the same tower

[low mauve]

Oh. The Arithmancy doors.

Yeah, there are multiple throughout the castle.

It's not guessing, it's maths

[sour pendant]

Oh. So no actual thestrals. Okay.

And yeah, just simple math.

[manic condor]

Okay so y’all know what I’m talking about kinda? I was just wondering if you saw and or liked it because I thought it was really cool

[low mauve]

Yes.

It's not really a secret

[eager elbow]

I’m actually really upset it took me so long to realize how to open those doors

[rain scarab]

I gave up and searched for how to open my first one

Apparently we were supposed to start at the astronomy tower (i think that's the one that has the instructions) but like nowhere in the early parts of the story takes you there. And like after 2-3 doors I got so uncomfortable passing by puzzles without solving them that I just serched how.

[sleek sable]

i found the page and took a picture/wrote it down.

[dusk solar]

btw on the doors it has the animals or wtv they are on it in order from 0-9

[hallow blaze]

my quest is basically empty. all it says is "Improve your magical abilities to access the next trial". but i dont remember how i do that?

because if im being honest, im stuck

[broken halo]

do side quests

[hallow blaze]

done all that i have of those as well

but still nothing appears

[broken halo]

you have to go talk to Sironia on the Three Broomsticks to ask where Lodgok is. once you talk to her you will find him in the Hogshead Bar

[hallow blaze]

when do i get to do the goblin Arn (i think his name is?) quest? i watched a Shorts on yt about something i want from there

[hallow blaze]

~~not sure if this is a spoiler question or what it is... but i just delivered the chinese chomping cabages to bernard. problem is... the quest is still there and wont go away??~~nevermind! it somehow bugged

[rare saddle]

Are you Ukrainian?

[magic crow]

He just died again and now I’m crying

Again

Why does the ending have to be so sad

[broken halo]

she's Russian and she secretly wants Russia to win

[fallen saddle]

Diabolical

[sleek sable]

@broken halo thats a bit uncalled for.

[broken halo]

just speaking the truth, dear Hufflepuff student

[fallen saddle]

I dont think that was the truth

[sleek sable]

exactly.

[fallen saddle]

Abit of a wrong thing to say if you ask me

[broken halo]

it is truth, she is my friend lol

[fallen saddle]

Oh okay lmao

[sleek sable]

then i apologize. it is a bit of a weird thing to say given whats going on though.

[broken halo]

yh she's a bit of a troll lmaoo but it's our humor so 😭

[sleek sable]

its all good. dark humor helps alot of people lol

[fallen saddle]

Lmao i was about say

[rare saddle]

I respect that xD

[rare saddle]

Sebastian would agree with you

[hallow blaze]

in the Percival Rackham's Trial, Fig mentions a spell to cast. i didnt quite get the spell name. what spell is it exactly, and how do i get it?

[low mauve]

Alohomora? The Unlocking Charm?

You'll get the quest to learn it immediately after completing the First Trial

[hallow blaze]

i dont think it was that one. let me reload the auto-save to be sure

fig tells me to sneak up behind a goblin and then cast whatever spell at it while being in disillusionment

[low mauve]

Oh, Petrificus Totalus

The prompt just shows up automatically once you're close enough

A popup explains this

[hallow blaze]

ohh okay! yeah i saw the pop-up, but was rather confused about that spell. i looked at my spells but saw nothing. so i went here and asked, thanks!

[low mauve]

Yee, it's a core spell, you didn't 'learn' it, but you can already cast it

Like Protego and Stupefy

[hallow blaze]

like the core i can cast with Finité. i tested that on a picture. i found one and clicked the F, then i stoned. after pressing either walking button, Finité was casted. it quite amused me when i pressed the wrong button. stuff as a board and then fall down

[low mauve]

Lmao yeah the Medusa painting

[hallow blaze]

lmao yup that one. i found it amusing!

[hallow blaze]

i have 4 sets of "???" on my "Prepare for your search for the final keeper". but what quests am i missing? i just finished sebastians quest in feldcroft

asking because no quests are coming up

[hallow blaze]

Natty wants me to meet her "near the ruins of Falbarton Castle. After dark." where is that located at exactly? im at the castle but confused over where to go

[mossy isle]

Near the floo powder

[hallow blaze]

im there but she isnt. and no clue of the quest name either

[mossy isle]

Is there a glowing circle on the ground?

[hallow blaze]

nope

[mossy isle]

Huh. Idk then. Maybe it's a bug?

[hallow blaze]

hope not. does the quest have a name?

[mossy isle]

The High Keep

[quiet radish]

If I choose to learn the cruciatis curse, will that force the evil ending of the game? This is my first time playing, but I want to know because I want to have a good ending.

[sour pendant]

No, it doesn't change anything.

[hardy abyss]

No matter what you choose at any point in the game, only whether or not you ||choose to open the repository|| at the end will affect which ending you get

[worn pine]

I’m so glad the “Learn cruciatus curse but dont cast it” option is there because my character isnt evil at all and I dont want him to cast it but I want to have every spell in the game

[mental pilot]

Yeah. My character is evil/pragmatic enough to use the other unforgivables, but torture spell is too far imo.

[worn pine]

My character is a hufflepuff and I dont want him to be evil but I really want every spell in the spell list

[mossy isle]

Just because you learn the spells doesn't mean you have to use them

[worn pine]

I know… 😭 thats what I said!! I meant in the quest where you use it on Sebastian

[mossy isle]

You...don't HAVE to though. You can learn it but have seb use it on you

[worn pine]

THATS WHAT I SAID!

and i quote: “I’m so glad the “Learn cruciatus curse but dont cast it” option is there”

[tidal pebble]

Just learned avada kedavra🐍🐍🐍🐍

[sour pendant]

Congrats. c:

[tidal pebble]

Cheers mate!! 😅

[rare oar]

Now use it on sebastian

[vague charm]

So I’m playing through the game once again, and during the main quest line, when you find Isadora’s memory, did she alter her memory like Slughorn because her memory kinda glitches and then all of a sudden her father is thanking her?

[fallen saddle]

noticed that as well and was wondering the same thing since my first playthrough. i think its a legit theory 👍

[vague charm]

And if it’s altered, I want to know what actually happened

[quiet radish]

The quest where you have to be Professor Black is so freaking hilarious

[deep cypress]

It’s altered in that she either took out or omitted Percival protesting about the magic and skipping straight to her fatger thanking her.

Meaning anyone who found her memory first would believe that there was no issue or danger involved, like Rackham did because he can see the corrupted magic unlike the other Keepers who can’t see Ancient Magic

[sour pendant]

Ahh, that makes sense!

[slow hull]

Hello everyone!
Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but I didn’t want to spoil the story or game for others.
is there a way to get the spell Avada Kedavra if you turned in Sebastian? Or can I just learn it from him?

[ionic haven]

Nope no way to learn it if you turn him in

[drowsy trail]

I believe you can only learn The killing curse from Sebastian, You can always go to the undercroft and ask Sebastian to teach it to you if you chose not to turn him in.

[ionic haven]

You either learn from him while you are presented the opportunity to then send him away

Or you keep him around then later go to the Undercroft to learn it from him

[drowsy trail]

I don't know what ending to do to be honest I might do the evil ending figuring I need to get in the habit of editing again 😭

[slow hull]

Thank you! I appreciate the help!

[worthy needle]

I loved trolling my housemates in disguise, feels exactly like what my character would've done

[sonic epoch]

Guys is there any ways to earn more coins

[sour pendant]

What ways have you been trying?

[sonic epoch]

I mean any side quest

Need more coins

[sour pendant]

You mostly earn money by selling gear and finding chests. You can also sell animals that you capture, once you have that ability.

[sonic epoch]

Sell animals how to get that ability

Any side missions

[sour pendant]

You have to complete the quest The High Keep first.

Also "The Elf, the Nab-Sack, and the Loom" and "Beasts Class".

[sonic epoch]

When does this missions pop up

[low mauve]

How early are you in the game??

[sonic epoch]

Just completed first trial

Did few assignments

[low mauve]

Then you should get them pretty soon, I think after you complete this next batch of main quests is when you'll get Beasts Class

But personally we never bother selling beasts, we just make our gold through chests and selling gear

[sour pendant]

Yeah, that's mainly me as well.

[sonic epoch]

Ok now I have to unlock by completing remaining side quests

[low mauve]

Are you not a high enough level or something??

[sonic epoch]

13 I just started the game

[final radish]

I feel really mean when I do it but when I need money I just go catch a load of beasts and sell them

[sour pendant]

🥺

[last pollen]

Spoiler warning! ||Should i turn sebastian in after he killed his uncle?||

[native swallow]

||Depends on what you think is the right thing to do. I personally turned him in because even though he regretted it after the fact, he still murdered his own uncle, so he had to face some sort of punishment in my eyes||

[deep cypress]

If you haven’t already learned the Unforgivable curses and might want to in the future then don’t turn him in

Turning him in locks you out of learning them all if you didn’t learn them during his questline

[last pollen]

ok thanks

[deep cypress]

A lifetime in Azkaban slowly losing all hope seems a bit extreme considering he’s still just a teenager, one who, I need to remind you, was effectively made homeless by his uncle.

[final radish]

I feel like there should be like a Juvy in the Harry Potter universe Azkaban is definitely very extreme for teenagers

[fallen saddle]

Sebastian had it coming
His crime count is at 5 with 1 murder
More murders if Rowling didn't make it so it's fine to murder goblins

Also congringo cut content makes it heavily frowned upon so he's naughty outside his crimes

It's still considered dark magic upon checking without the negative reprocussions that were cut

[vernal frigate]

Sebastion murdered his Uncle Soloman because he's a jerk. Sebastion bealived there was a cure for Anne while Soloman did not. What if there is a cure and Soloman was getting in the way of that because he thought otherwise

[spiral narwhal]

I aint no snitch

[fallen saddle]

I can refuse to give a hungry person a sandwich it's still not illegal and if he steals it he's committing a crime

Straight to Azkaban

[vernal frigate]

I didn't send him because He's trying to do something good for his sister and their Uncle was a legit jerk

[mossy isle]

The road to hell is paved with good intentions

[fallen saddle]

Womp womp being a jerk is not illegal, several things seb did is

Sebastián simps have gotten away with simping for a child and making his crimes okay for too long
Yall can go to Azkaban too

[mossy isle]

His Uncle tried everything except dark magic for good reason. DARK MAGIC ALWAYS COMES WITH A PRICE

[vernal frigate]

Sebastion did what he had to do. I'm not saying it's right but his uncle was evil to them

[vernal frigate]

Sebastion only did one wrong thing and that was murdering his Uncle. Sebastion did it for a reason

[vernal frigate]

His uncle did nothing to save Anne. Let's be real here

[fallen saddle]

Straight to jail

[vernal frigate]

Also I don't simp for Sebastion, I'm just saying that he did what he did for his sister

[fallen saddle]

Jail

[vernal frigate]

Well I didn't send him to jail and I won't when I keep redoing play throughs

[fallen saddle]

Do not collect 200, just straight to jail

[young zodiac]

fr

bro tought bc he saved her w imperio and so world would be destroyed..

i mean he could use expeliamus or smthing like that...

[mossy isle]

He'd already taken her to the best healers in the wizarding world by the time we come along. what else would you have of him? the man had lost hope

[mossy isle]

and as I've said before, the road to hell is paved with good intentions

[worn pine]

killing people because they’re rude is okay now ??

[worn pine]

i wouldnt say evil to “them”
he was nice to anne, he was only rude to sebastian because he had gone to all the best healers in the whole world and nothing had worked but sebastian stayed persistent and sebastian used an unforgivable curse on a goblin to save anne when he couldve used any other spell

[runic tundra]

My main issue with Solomon was he should not have destroyed that poultice Seb worked so hard on, he should not have accused MC of wrong doing or being just like Seb without proof and while i understand his issue with seb using dark magic and curses, he ignored the reasoning behind it in the case with that goblin and then disowned him despite his intentions there. Like he's more upset seb used dark magic and not the fact goblins invaded his village and tried to murder his niece.

Also he really should have taken everyone out of that crypt and then destroy the relic, not latter first, try to do the latter after. though in that case you could argue he figured destroying it would stop the inferi.

also he should not have attacking MC or Seb when inferi were threatening everyone's lives

yah seb struck first but he should he kept his own cool

[sour pendant]

Sebastian hit him with a measly basic cast. Solomon retaliated with fiendfyre.

[runic tundra]

Or fire magic at least. And on MC aswell. like bro i didn't attack you. and there's inferi everywhere though fire is really effective for them

[sour pendant]

He attacks MC even if they don't know a single Unforgivable Curse.

[runic tundra]

Ik. Like dude i'm not the enemy in that case

and in the moment i still ain't.

[low mauve]

Sebastian cast the first blow but the way Solomon responded was not appropriate

[runic tundra]

there's inferi everywhere Solomon. Priorities

[low mauve]

He's an ex-Auror fighting two children

[runic tundra]

yah solomon overreacted

[cursive sigil]

Exactly, Soloman went to far

[maiden lichen]

fr

[maiden lichen]

tho if he dident i would not have killing curse (:

[young zodiac]

Fr, i think both sides over reacter from the start...

[grand plover]

Whether or not you agree with Sebastian should hold little to no bearing on your expectations of Solomon. A clearly fully grown adult. I can (somewhat) accept the ambiguity on agreeing with Sebastian's ultimate motives. I struggle to accept anyone who feels Solomon acted correctly and didn't fully contribute by worsening an already bad situation by his own conduct.

[young zodiac]

Basicaly both partyes went too far

But solomon caused the other one to go overboard....

Ex auror fighting 2 kids instead of inferi

[sour pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/priorities-priority-procrastination-procrastinating-sorted-gif-4172546768745853013

[fallen saddle]

Yall glossing over the fact Sebastián is known to be a good dualist depending on who you ask best in hogwarts & is also known to use forbidden magic & dark magic. Everyone knows he used dark magic he makes it no secret and his uncle has witnessed him use forbidden magic

He's a bad kid with a gun (wand)

Solomon had every right when Sebastián attacked first to assume Ill intent, and iirc solomon didn't even have a wand in his hand when Sebastián attacked, and if he did the wand wasn't raised

[young zodiac]

I mean the last portrait profesor also uses ak and he was fine...

[runic tundra]

I did think bout that part. Seb's not helpless and does use Dark Magic and knows how to use all 3 UCs which i assume Solomon does not know bout so Seb would be considered dangerous even to an ex-Auror but i do think him attacking both him and MC in retaliation for a basic attack cast was the wrong move especially given there are inferi still there. Also Solomon did have his wand in his hand when Seb attacked him

[mental pilot]

Yeah, Solomon had just destroyed the relic and was in a room full of inferi. He wouldn’t have put his wand away.

[sour pendant]

Today, I Learned....that if you kill the acromantula by the phoenix cave, the Absconder won't appear in its cave in the Forbidden Forest and you can just grab the watch. (Either that, or I got a lucky glitch. Or it won't appear unless you've started the mission?)

...Okay, I have the watch, but I can't give it to him.

Great.

Went back to the cave. Big ugly spider is there now. Fantastic.

OK, yeah, so it looks like the Absconder doesn't appear until the mission is started. As soon as I killed it, I was able to return the watch.

[fallen saddle]

I went back and watched the cutscene and it was not up or even pointed at seb

So a known good dualist, who he knows to use dark magic & he's aware he knows at minimum one curse which you can reasonably assume if someone knows one they know all, attacked him first

Taking cut content into consideration confringo is heavily frowned upon -50 house points each cast
Without taking cut content into example using dark magic is still frowned upon in universe/lore

[runic tundra]

Game said you weren't getting out of fighting it lol

[runic tundra]

Ik he's a good duelist and used DM and Solomon knows he knew one of them. I forgot bout the Goblin thing. I still think he was wrong to attack (especially attack MC when MC didn't attack him in the first place and depending on your choice may not know DM), when the inferi were around still and animated. The priority imo is dealing with them first and getting the kids out of there safely. Then deal with Seb.

I reckon things prob would have gone better down there if he had not shown up. At least he wouldn't have died

[fallen saddle]

Mc was there when Sebastian used unforgivable and was there during the second encounter aswell

I can also assume Solomon has heard Mc is a decent dualist but maybe not

It can easily be assumed Mc is just as deranged as Sebastian

Or at the minimum condones Sebastian

[runic tundra]

He already lumped us in with Seb prior to the crypt fight.

That was wrong of him unless your MC actually uses UCs

[fallen saddle]

Within reason,Mc was fine with a unforgivable being used

It's not a unfair assumption

[runic tundra]

Like yah he could have done another spell, but he went on instinct in that case and was tryna save Anne so I'd have warned not do use them again so as to not end up in jail. But given Seb's obsession I don;'t think a warning would stop him using them again if he felt he had to and well he was using an object which required a sacrifice later so yah....

[fallen saddle]

Seb def would of still did it
The under playing of his actions & how he makes the Mc look is often ignored

[runic tundra]

Actually i wonder when do wizards learn those curses in the cases of law enforcement since the Ministry was known to remove those restrictions in times of conflict. So Aurors would have to be trained to use them in those events

[runic tundra]

Yah that too. Like he risks his own arrest with them. Like i can let the Anne thing pass cos it was to save her but like he can't keep doing them in contexts that wouldn't potentially exonerate their use like saving her would.

MC you can argue is using them in self-defense given they are specifically being targeted for capture or death in the conflict with ranrock and co.

[fallen saddle]

Honestly seb probably would of killed Mc if not for Solomon

[runic tundra]

Also Poachers, fck them.

[runic tundra]

Yah the whole dark sacrifice things is not clear but ya...

[fallen saddle]

It's in the name sacrifice

[runic tundra]

Ik. Like its either murder or body mutilation but the former most likely and i'm not cool with either

And Seb is not in his right mind with the object

damn typo

[fallen saddle]

Really it comes down to three options
Solomon dies
You die
Sebastian dies

Luckily the choice never has to be made

And it's cleverly ignored by Sebastian fans

[runic tundra]

I wouldn't care if they used Rookwood. Fck him

Or just get him to tell us the curse incantation then force to reverse it if possible

[fallen saddle]

I should replay Hogwarts legacy instead of just talking about why Sebastian sucks lol

Ive never even learned the curses

[runic tundra]

Ah you went for non dark magic run. same. il do a DM run sometime. Need to actually finish HL. I have to do the last quest - field guide to get the ending proper. then do lotta SQs

[fallen saddle]

Yeah non dark magic Slytherin
Really a point to any other house when Slytherin gets their own gloves? Lol

[runic tundra]

I went Hufflepuff for my run. Azkaban quest which could have been longer really. Also i like Hufflepuff

[fallen saddle]

Hufflepuff cool but that quest Is indeed overhyped lol

Atleast Gryffindor has a book moment that's not just a hallway

[south summit]

There's and Azkaban Quest?? Is it house Specific??

I've Never Seen that on my Slytherin or Ravenclaw Game??

[fallen saddle]

Yes. It's the house specific quest for hufflepuff.

[south summit]

That Sounds Awesome; Gotta Check it Out!

[young zodiac]

Noooo! ||Poor fig (defeated ranrok)||

[sonic epoch]

Do you think ranrok is dead

[young zodiac]

Hmm tbh prob no (for lore for hl2)

[mossy isle]

He should be. I used the killing curse on him

[young zodiac]

Wait u can do that?

When i tried i couldnt fire it

[sour pendant]

Yeah, Avada Kedavra doesn't work in that fight.

[mossy isle]

It doesn't one shot him, but it does deal significant damage. Use it once and he calls in his goons. Take care of them and use it again on him to trigger the crosswands QTE

[sour pendant]

"calls in his goons"...?

Are we talking about the same fight?

Ranrok? Not Rookwood?

[mossy isle]

WAit. is ranrok the goblin?

[sour pendant]

...Yes.

[mossy isle]

Oh. Nevermind then

[young zodiac]

I could oneshot him?

[sour pendant]

No.

[young zodiac]

Hm weird then it did like 95% of dmg + i used an maxima potion

[young zodiac]

Tbh i tought ranroks boss fight will be harder and longer

W 3 armor and dmg potions i took it easy

And only used 2 healing potions

[young zodiac]

^

How much time does ot take to complete the rest of the main quest?

[sonic epoch]

But I don’t think we will be seeing ranrok in hl2 want to see some other villains

[young zodiac]

I joust wana se harry potter accurate game ;-;

If not annything the fighting tree could be there

[sonic epoch]

It’s not going to be Harry Potter related

[young zodiac]

Ik but oh well if it will be a banger like this one is good

[sonic epoch]

I have feeling Sebastian might end up being a villain

He is my favourite character but still he knows dark magic

Sequel will be 🔥

[barren ocean]

Heyy

[worn pine]

but what if you sent him to prison??

[sour pendant]

Perfect villain origin story.

[sonic epoch]

May be he comes back

Somehow

[fallen saddle]

You can rest easy knowing you did the right thing

[south summit]

i feel like sebastian's story is kinda left unfinished if you don't imprison him

like he's just left as some depressed dark arts guy

so if there is a sequel sebastian should be a villan fr

[runic tundra]

Its all assuming a sequel even continues this directly. They could do a prequel for all we know

[sonic epoch]

After finishing Sebastian storyline yes I also felt the same he might turn into villain in future

[sonic epoch]

I hope it’s a sequel I would love to see all the characters back

[runic tundra]

Yah but i dunno were they go unless they put it in the year after cos they'd have most freedom there cos after that AD shows up in canon to the school

they can still do a story there and not involve him but like why wouldn't they capitalize on putting a young AD in the main cast of such a game where's he's at hogwarts

[stoic mortar]

i think it’d be cool to continue in the second game as our character and choose to open the container or keep it locked up in the beginning of the game (since the option to choose did nothing at the end) and then we’d have a morality option instead of being the hero like always

and you could explore the darker magic throughout the year as well as class work or dive further into your ancient magic if you choose not to open it

[mossy isle]

Personally I'd love to attend more classes

[stoic mortar]

transfiguration is so underused

[stoic mortar]

learning your animagus form in beasts class would be neat

[sour pendant]

It would. q-q

But it would belong in Transfiguration.

[stoic mortar]

true

[mossy isle]

except I don't think that's something they TEACH considering the steps to becoming an animagus are convluted to hell and back

[stoic mortar]

to cast the spell maybe but i think learning what form of beast you’ll take would be a quest for beasts class

[sour pendant]

Apparently they teach it in Uagadou, so I don't see why they couldn't here. Maybe to Sixth and Seventh Years?

[mossy isle]

wouldn't that break the lore? the marauders had to learn it themselves

[sour pendant]

They managed it in Fifth Year.

I'm saying Hogwarts could officially teach it to older students.

[stoic mortar]

i mean there were all those poachers that were an animagus

[sour pendant]

All those female poachers that somehow all became wolves, but yeah.

[stoic mortar]

maybe it’s because they’re all poachers and prey driven

[mossy isle]

it's not something hogwarts teaches though. other schools do, yeah, but not hogwarts. personally I blame the ministry

[sour pendant]

I'm saying they could, though. If they wanted to. I don't see why not.

[mossy isle]

lore breaking

[sour pendant]

"Gryffindor - Known for Daring, Bravery, and Chivalry" Two of those are synonyms.

[mossy isle]

they didn't teach it during the marauders era, they didn't teach it during harry's era, they didn't teach it during HL as far as we can tell since we only meet ONE animagus student. so why would they SUDDENLY teach it during HL2 but then decide to NOT teach it later on

[sour pendant]

Blame JKR.

[runic tundra]

HL is not canon so they can ignore it

and MC can just learn it themselves

[mossy isle]

the devs have said they want the game to be as lore friednly as possible

if the MC can learn it outside of class go for it!

[runic tundra]

i don't expect it to happen anyway. also it would have limits in game cos the game engine can't give you the option to any animal you want.

[deep cypress]

The animagus registry was in place at least by the time of HL, so asking to learn it (if Professor Weasley would even agree to teach you the method and monitor it) she’d likely also have to report you to the ministry so you were registered.

Even Natty is told to be more careful about her adventures as a gazelle because I doubt she and her mother registered when they moved.

There’s also the fact that it’s really advanced and not many attempt it because if the risk. You mess up one thing and you ether have to start the whole process again, or you end up in a half transformed states and end up at St Mungo’s

[fallen saddle]

In the final battle against Ranrok in the lower levels of Hogwarts, I decided as a Slytherin to claim the dark magic as my own and did not contain it. Do I now get to somehow use this or what happens now?

[low mauve]

No, there's no difference combat-wise.

[fallen saddle]

That's unfortunate but makes sense given how the game is setup

[runic tundra]

It also may just be a temp boost lore wise anyway

[stoic mortar]

to be fair MC could do what isadora was doing instead of opening the container tbh

i’m sure they could piece together a hunt for her “journal” pieces where she describes how she does it

missed opportunity with the morality option

[runic tundra]

They need her spell for that though so yah they'd have to hunt for her journal entries to see if she wrote it down

[fallen saddle]

You mean Isadora journal and pensive right

I did find it but she is not in the portrait

[runic tundra]

yah it was burned

destroyed. so MC would have to go on a hunt for others or other stuff she hid around

[rancid hedge]

How do you actually get the final OWLS cutscene? I’m looking everywhere and nothing gives me an actual answer. I’m level 35 and done every quest I had (but have not done my game 100%, I’m fairly certain you don’t need 100 to get the final scene)

[sour pendant]

You go to the Great Hall, after speaking with Matilda in her office.

[rancid hedge]

Mathilda won’t speak to me, if i remember right then last time we spoke was in her office and she told me to keep exploring. Going to the great hall doesn’t trigger anything :,)

[sour pendant]

Well, if you're Level 35 and you've shown her your book, I don't see any reason why it wouldn't trigger. Specifically, you go to the little room between the doors to the Great Hall, and the doors that lead out into the corridor where the Grand Staircase is. There are two suits of armor there, and, at the beginning of the game, a moth mirror.

[rancid hedge]

I’m standing in that room rn and there’s nothing, I’m not sure if I talked to her before I was level 35 or not but I can’t interact with her at all

[sour pendant]

shrug I honestly don't know what to tell you, I'm sorry.

[rancid hedge]

It’s okayyy I’ve just been looking everywhere for an answer :,) It’s an old save anyways, I just wanted to see if I could complete it but I guess not. I’ll start a new one and hope to remember not to talk to Weasley before I’m level 35

[karmic ether]

Well, I think it depends on how much you have already accomplished in your field guide... Cannot really say, as I am much of an explorer and I took my time in finding as many secrets as possible

Could be:
Weasley satisfied -> OWLs cutscene
Weasley not satisfied -> no OWLs

[lofty grove]

just finished the game and final quest (house cup) this is so sad

it was pretty good

[young zodiac]

Ye... I am on my 2nd playtrough rn

Then gona be ravenclaw and then hypogriff

[sour pendant]

Gonna be a hippogriff? 😂

[young zodiac]

😂

Good morning lol

[sour pendant]

It's 11:57 p.m.

Is still night.

[young zodiac]

For me is 8am

[sour pendant]

:p

I'm playing my Gryffindor.

[young zodiac]

Ye gryffindor not hippogriff😂😂👍

[sour pendant]

XDXDXD

[young zodiac]

Tbh now that i am more in game slytherin house aint even that bad

[sour pendant]

Good. c:

[young zodiac]

If only squid were more common

[sour pendant]

lol

[young zodiac]

The house is more to the center of hogwarts if yk what i mean...

[sour pendant]

Not really, no.

[young zodiac]

(I hate using floo flames when i gota)

So i rather walk and this house is closer to all

[sour pendant]

Ah.

[young zodiac]

Oh btw u 100% the game?

[sour pendant]

No. :) I got to Level 40 once, and I might do it again, we'll see if I have a sense of humor.

[young zodiac]

Whats ur rating for polgiester haunted shop u can obtain?

[sour pendant]

What do you mean, rating?

[young zodiac]

(Side quest)

Like 1/10

[sour pendant]

Oh. As in, how much I enjoy playing it? I'd say 7/10. Maybe 7.5.

[young zodiac]

It was bit scarry w those dools but otherwise fun

[sour pendant]

It was a little unnerving the first time around, yeah.

[young zodiac]

And confusing my braib didnt understant a bit

[low mauve]

Yeah, it's designed to get you lost

[sour pendant]

Yeah, but I've played it a few times now, so I pretty much know where I'm going. Sort of.

[young zodiac]

I mean if u cant go 1 way u go back

• those dolls scared the fu* out of me

[low mauve]

Yeah, but the landscape changes as you go through it, even more than the Trials

[young zodiac]

Fr

[brisk turret]

hows this spoilers 🤣

[keen pumice]

Hi!!! Last night I finished the main story line and omg, I cried when all the profs showed up holy sdfsiudfhshdf what an epic moment 😭 and the end battle is so cool; but .. I was kind of .. let down with ..the story after? they play a great hall lets remember prof fig cutscene and then its...thats it, end of the year, go do side quests have fun, like hello? what do I do with the big secret under the castle? no profs asking me what I've been up to and had to suffer through the entire school year? The end battle, the secret under hogwarts, all very cool, but the after, .. kinda..storywise lackluster? what are your thoughts?

[lofty grove]

We truly left a Legacy behind at Hogwarts...

PLEASE RELEASE YEAR 6

[coarse rover]

my thoughts exactly. the ending feels way too rushed and is not giving the game its deserved fulfilling conclusion after that last epic battle. its missing a profound emotional review and clarification (with friends and professors) - and of course some sort of consequences regarding what we decided to do with that teensy ancient magic thingy i guess ... but maybe thats too far fetched? 🫠

instead after finishing the story you end up being left hanging and ignored by almost any of the characters. its disappointing really.

[keen pumice]

Yes! Exactly that! I almost preferred if it had finished with a cut scene where it shows your future maybe? what you do with the secret, going through emotional conversations with friends and proffs, and ending it with the hogwarts train riding off - fade to black - end credits kinda thing?

Then you could still have it go "back" to your common room where it says, before your train ride home you had some last things to finish, have fun

Just a little more emotional value about the rollercoaster you just went through

[lofty grove]

Omggg

No guys they left it like this for a reason, year 6...

It's my 6th sense

[sour pendant]

<@&755190193367023772> Spammer.

[rose cape]

I was playing Hogwarts Legacy, and I thought what kind of adventure within the story of Hogwarts Legacy 2 might be needed.
"Rogue Deatheater".
I know it sound strange the title but the point of adventure in Hogwarts Legacy with 3 unforgivable curses with Sebastian Sallow where it ends with the keep Sebastian at Hogwarts or betray Sebastian, send him to Azkaban and he grow with rage for revenge.

With that said, can the project Hogwarts Legacy 2, keep the characters already created by the players, and in the houses adventure that betrayed Sebastian, can have the Sebastian revenge story in Hogwarts Legacy 2?

[lofty grove]

interesting idea if a villain in the next game was an equally ambitious/powerful student, like how it was in the chamber of secrets

i dont know how i'd feel fighting sebastian though, feels like everything that has happened i dont think he'd turn evil he'd just be broken

[rose cape]

@lofty grove I'm not sure if this might be/not be a good spoiler here, but in my Hogwarts Legacy 2 adventure of Caleb Thorn (Slytherin), i want for my Slytherin character to remain forever with Imelda Reyes, like 💗 fate.🤭😊

[lofty grove]

ohh like a romance feature

yeah i wouldn't mind something like that in a sequel

like something out of the half-blood prince (if you've watched the movies lol)

[rose cape]

Spoiler to you only, SovietSpy, I saw all the movies Harry Potter and played all the games HarryPotter.

[lofty grove]

danggg ok you know your stuff 🔥

[rose cape]

If there's to talk about the romance in Hogwarts, 🤭small spoiler now, Hogwarts Mystery already contain romance🤭, but more in DM.😊

[lofty grove]

ohhh does it how nice haha

[signal palm]

Personally, I hope he survived. He's all but comatose now.

[lofty grove]

if he returns in the sequel imma be pissed 😭 🙏

[signal palm]

Maybe just a cameo.

[lofty grove]

maybe just a mention

"hey remember the events of the last game? i totally do"

[ruby sun]

||Dumbledore dies||

[signal palm]

Way late, I know. I like to think the curse lost it's effect on her after Rookwood died.

[sour pendant]

That's my headcanon as well.

[rose cape]

Or maybe Ranrok will return in the Hogwarts Legacy 2, but only as a shadow who posses others to make innocents goblins to start a war in his name.

That's how I like to picture Ranrok's return in Hogwarts Legacy 2 game, like an Horcrux Shadow who you don't stop that easily and you can get to destroy him once and for all but only at the middle of year 7 of Hogwarts.

[sour pendant]

If Avalanche makes it so Ranrok is alive in HGL2:

https://tenor.com/view/excuse-me-i-have-to-go-vomit-hermione-granger-harry-potter-gif-14536935

[lofty grove]

oh my gosh i really really hope we get a new villain

idgaf about ranrok no more 😭

[sour pendant]

We'd better.

[lofty grove]

leave him in the first game 😭 🔥 💯

i think it'd be cool if the new antagonist was like a student

like how ||tom riddle|| was

[signal palm]

I need to rewatch those at some point. XD

[lofty grove]

expect itll be present and not the past lol

[sour pendant]

I suppose somebody has to. :)

[rose cape]

https://tenor.com/view/tom-riddle-gif-23143904

Or how about 3 new villains for Hogwarts Legacy 2, a student (🤭That is already checked on my list with my Slytherin evil character Caleb Thorn🤭), a goblin (no Ranrok), and if we will finally get to have that giant snake ally (for Slytherin only) to be like an "Chamber of Secrets" kind of thing.😊

[sour pendant]

Nu Slytherin favoritism. :(

[mental pilot]

We’ll get Ranrok’s grandma Granrok.

Hufflepuff villain in the Chamber of Loyalty. Unleashes a giant badger to protect muggleborns, but accidentally causes more damage than the basilisk ever did.

[mossy isle]

that's not a high bar to overcome considering all it did was petrify a few students, a ghost, a cat, and only had ONE fatality that was most likely accidental

[lofty grove]

peak writing WB should hire you

[mental pilot]

I wonder how many people Tom even petrified. He just thought this could ruin the school, tried it out and immediately stopped because of course they were consequences.

[lofty grove]

me when my actions have consequences

please add consequences to HL2

Like a morality system

You guys play RDR2 ever?

Essentially that

[rose cape]

That would be out of the question, like this option for the game, no.

[mental pilot]

Well yeah, it’s a joke.

[rose cape]

Guys, you know what else might be exciting to have in Hogwarts Legacy 2 game? Special Adventures just like in Hogwarts Mystery, with Animagus, A Professor Apreciation, Expecto Patronum, and many more other special adventures.

[sour pendant]

Patronuses are never gonna happen, srry.

[rose cape]

Why not? Expecto Patronum is an important spell from Harry Potter universe, since we didn't defended againstDementors in Hogwarts Legacy 1, why the spell should be rejected now for Hogwarts Legacy 2?

[sour pendant]

Dementors are at Azkaban, and as much as I would love to revisit the Hallway, I just can't see that happening again.

[rose cape]

Ok. I can see that picture, but try to see my point of view, Effie, Expecto Patronum is a very important spell to this Harry Potter universe, it shouldn't be rejected.

The spell wasn't in Hogwarts Legacy 1, I take your side Expecto Patronum might not be in Hogwarts Legacy 2 aswell, but I say it again, the spell Expecto Patronum shouldn't be rejected.

[sour pendant]

Not gonna happen. No practical use for it.

[signal palm]

Fighting Lethifolds?

[rose cape]

About Expecto Patronum.

[signal palm]

Yeah, Lethifolds are only repeled by that. Just like Dementors.

[sour pendant]

Which only live in the tropics.

[signal palm]

Maybe poachers accidentally released a ton of them?

[sour pendant]

Yeah…good luck capturing a ton of them. And to what end, even?

[signal palm]

Taming them to sell on the market. They'd make great guardians for you treasures after all.

[sour pendant]

Uh…yeah, I highly doubt that.

[signal palm]

You never know.

[sour pendant]

They’re XXXXX. Impossible to train or domesticate.

[signal palm]

Doesn't mean there aren't people dumb enough to try. lol

[sour pendant]

It’s just not plausible.

[signal palm]

Like I said. Dumb people.

The only ones who would try it, are going to be the dumbest people.

[sour pendant]

Then wouldn’t they be too dumb to be able to capture more than one or two lethifolds? They aren’t exactly easy to spot.

[signal palm]

Fair enough. It'd just be fun to have both Lethifolds and the Patronus charm in the game.

[signal palm]

Also, did they ever explain why all the Dugbogs were hostile?

[sour pendant]

Probably all the dark ancient magic. Same reason the dark mongrels were aggressive.

[signal palm]

Wait, maybe the ancient magic is part of the reason Lethifolds are present.

[signal palm]

Theoretically, couldn't you use the Imperius curse to control them?

[young zodiac]

Yall i need help ;-; i started my game after not playing for 2 weeks and half of my spells i had are missing , i dont have anny mods

[sour pendant]

Maybe. Maybe not.

If it were effective on dementors, for example, you’d think that would be the one instance in which the Imperius Curse is not “unforgivable.”

[sour pendant]

Ancient magic is not going to cause them to migrate across the ocean to a completely alien environment.

[runic tundra]

Yah i assume the CC is not effective on Dementors and Lethifolds and many fantastic beasts

[signal palm]

Given Dementors don't seem to be corporial, I don't think it would work on them.

[runic tundra]

they do have some kind of corporeal form as they do have mouths and hands and heads but they are still not entirely physical entities as they are not born as we are and they don't die as we do

[signal palm]

Yeah. I also believe the Kiss only works on humans. Goblins, Vampires, Mefolk, etc. Dementors can't consume their souls.

[low mauve]

Why???

That implies those creatures have no souls

[sour pendant]

Yeah, that wouldn't make any sense.

Creatures without souls are husks.

[runic tundra]

Yah Dementors should be able to use the Kiss on any living being cos they need a soul to live in the first place unless the soul is already removed by a Kiss.

[rose cape]

https://tenor.com/view/roufixtra-gif-13391655725515217075

[signal palm]

Yeah, human.

[signal palm]

All living things have different types of souls.

[sour pendant]

Not in HP, they don't.

[signal palm]

I don't think it's ever been explained.

[sour pendant]

Well, I'm of the firm opinion that until it's established that different species have souls that work differently, it's safe to assume that they're all basically the same.

[runic tundra]

Phoenix souls work differently since they actually don't got to Limbo or Afterlife upon death, at least not for a very long time since they reincanate after death.

Newt's writings seem to imply they do they die perma eventually though and there one would think there'd loads of pheonixes around if they can legit live forever.

[sour pendant]

Well, that raises the question of how many times they can revive. owo

[runic tundra]

Removing their soul via Dementor would prob stop their reincarnation cycle or somehow preventing the cycle from continuing will effectively render them dead.

Ik. Newt just wrote it allows them to obtain great age.

But like does the wording imply they eventually die or not?

Like if takes logic and science and really long term into account, they in theory they may be able to survive cosmic heat death

which is crazy to imagine

[ancient sand]

I always wondered if dementors could suck a soul out of a horcrux 🤔

[runic tundra]

Maybe but good luck gettin anyone to volunteer for that test

And its not likely anyone else is a lving Horcrux other than HP and Nagini in history

and even if they can, it doesn;t mean it will destroy the horcrux

[ancient sand]

@viscid tusk we need to test something…

[runic tundra]

that dementor would then have to removed from existence via enough happy emotions/ memories i think but it could maybe regenerate with said horcrux inside it via negative emotions due to how dementors are born via negative emotions. they reproduce like fugus basically

[sour pendant]

What happens to a soul fragment in a living horcrux, when the living creature dies?

[viscid tusk]

uh oh

👁️ 👄 👁️

[lofty grove]

ask nagini

[sour pendant]

brb, asking Ominis to ask Nagini.

[lofty grove]

need an interpretor haha

[runic tundra]

It is presumably destroyed but we dunno.

Like I don't think the manner of death would matter but we can't know

Hence its why LV makin her one was a risk. But then he could just make another Horcrux afterward if she died and the soul fragment with it so he could get back what he thought was his 7 splitted soul

He wanted his soul spliit in 7

ironically he split in 8 unknowingly but not all at once

He was at 7 before he made Nagini one

[thick narwhal]

Narieeee 🥹

[viscid tusk]

Heeewwoo 👋 😇

[delicate falcon]

heya

[proper relic]

Anybody know all the locations of the demiguise moons

[sour pendant]

I know the locations of a lot of the moons, but not all.

[proper relic]

Darn just tired of searching

[rigid sun]

I can never find the Demiguise

[delicate falcon]

use a guide on google

[fickle ember]

I used the ign guide

https://www.ign.com/wikis/hogwarts-legacy/Demiguise_Statues_Locations

[warped shoal]

Silly question, does the shop you can get via the quest in Hogsmeade actually do anything? Can you manage it? Place items for sale in it? Make money or even just sell vendor loot at it for a better price? I cannot even find my shop on the map and cannot remember where in the village it is. ... Or... is it one of those silly quests that has you do all this stuff just for its own sake?

[deep cypress]

No, it’s just somewhere you can sell your gear for a little more than all the other vendors in the game

[hollow bone]

I’m playing this game for the first time and I just did the “Minding Your Own Business” quest and oh my god it’s so trippy and scary. I feel like it came out of my nightmares

[low mauve]

Lol isn't it cool

[hollow bone]

It traumatized me i think 😭

[rose cape]

You mean the one in the basement at Hogsmeade? That cripled me to, if your answer is yes.😊

[rotund lava]

im about to start it, im seeing i mightve made a mistake😅

[sour pendant]

Eh?

[rotund lava]

the shop quest

[sour pendant]

It's not a mistake. 🫂

[rotund lava]

i gotta experience everything at least once 🫠

[rose cape]

I agree. The shop quest isn't a mistake, from the point of view that you put items on sale and not buying them from other shops.

[sour pendant]

Well, I was saying it's not a mistake because it's a good quest.

The shop itself is useless.

[earnest mortar]

yea, she can take that 10%

I won't buy a thing for that

[hollow bone]

I was so overstimulated because of that quest

[rotund lava]

i was so confused, i almost had to look up how to get out of one of the rooms🫠

[spice shard]

i was annoyed cuz when i thought it finally ended

we had to fight the ex owner

ughh

[lofty grove]

<@&755190193367023772>

this

[zinc shuttle]

Ops leftover

[lofty grove]

its in #😎off-topic and #💻technology too lol

thanks!!

[cyan quest]

How do u complete ?

[plush folio]

It is a scary quest yes

[hollow bone]

Which part? There are so much puzzles you just have to go through it all and I was actually looking for tutorial on youtube for some parts. 😭

[plush folio]

I can send you a link to a full walkthrough of that quest

[long charm]

Sebastian kills his uncle

Anne doesn't forgive him

You either turn him in or save him

You learn avada kedavra after that

I hope a quidditch DLC is added ngl

And maybe a chamber of secrets/Voldemort/dark arts DLC

Not Voldemort, just smth similar like a dark lord

Lore not included btw

[deep cypress]

You can learn Avada Kedavra during the end of the In the Shadow of the Relic quest.

If you didn’t learn it then and turn him in, you can’t learn Avada Kedavra

[deep cypress]

That would break canon

Which Avalanche have said many times is something they’re sticking to as closely as they can

[deep cypress]

Nope lol

[long charm]

I said lore not included

[long charm]

Also yes you CAN learn it after

If you go to ominis

[sour pendant]

B.S.

[long charm]

Nvm I looked it up I'm wrong

I thought that could happen

[long charm]

Yes

Well a quidditch game came out

But I'm too broke man 😭

[deep cypress]

Yeah why would Ominis, a character very clearly established to be staunchly against the Dark Arts teach you the Killing curse?

Like think about that for a second lol

[long charm]

I said I'm wrong jeez

I thought abt smth else

[deep cypress]

Not in Hogwarts Legacy.

Broom flight was so janky at launch, there’s a reason they didn’t develop quidditch and had a way to exclude quidditch from the game entirely.

It would be so expensive and time consuming to make. WB already have HL2 in the works

[long charm]

Holy yappington dude I said OKAY

Read my later chats before replying to earlier ones

[deep cypress]

You joined the server today and went on about stuff that’s been brought up even way before launch, and pretty much at least once a week since. Excuse me for being a bit tired of having to rehash the same thing lol

[steep robin]

God I love the deathly hallows mission… I wish I could just fight enemies nonstop with the elder wand

[fallen saddle]

Yeah I really enjoyed that one!!

[upbeat rampart]

Ahhh what do I do! Do I open the magic container or leave it

Quick

[low mauve]

What has you indecisive

[upbeat rampart]

???

What happens if I open it

[sour pendant]

Nothing, really. You just get a different ending cutscene.

[upbeat rampart]

Wait is the game over!

[sour pendant]

....I don't know, is it?

[upbeat rampart]

Dose the game continue after the battle

[sour pendant]

Not really.

[upbeat rampart]

Nooooooooo

I haven't lernt all the spells

[sour pendant]

You can keep playing. It's just the story's pretty much over.

[upbeat rampart]

Noooooooooooo

That's sooooo sad

[lofty grove]

you should open it, whats the worst that could happen 🌲 🍎 🐍

[upbeat rampart]

To late dude

[ancient tulip]

you just spoiled the whole quest

[lofty grove]

check the channel name 😭 🔥

[jade gulch]

aw man im so sad, story got spoiled in the story spoilers channel 😭

[sour pendant]

What is this world coming to? 😭

[signal spindle]

im on the last quest of the sebastian storyline and its incredible

[novel plaza]

i personally cant wait to get the last curse to instantly kill enemies

since it's so overpowered i imagine the cooldown is quite significant

[signal spindle]

solomon as a boss fight is INSANE

[signal spindle]

SEBASTIAN KILLED HIS UNCLE???????

WHAT

[sour pendant]

HELL YEAH HE DID

[signal spindle]

I MEAN I GET IT BUT HOLY CRAP

i kinda dont agree with him but i want the Killing Spell so i do for this!

its a nice nod that the wand movement is a lightning bolt

[sour pendant]

Indeed. Provides some sort of a logical reason why Harry's scar is a lightning bolt.

[sour pendant]

I GET IT TOO

[signal spindle]

11,290 DAMAGE HOLY

[runic tundra]

That is the canonical wand movement for the spell I think so attention to detail there if so

yah it is. not the best for aiming a spell though given how fast it must be done and that you need to aim properly all the while

[tender venture]

The fact that Penny chooses to stay and help with the shop if you free her is so wholesome. 🥺

[flint basin]

But she's still a big fat liar

[low mauve]

She literally COULDN'T tell you the truth

Like was physically incapable because she had been magically ordered not to

[flint basin]

She said I can sell anything from dittany to mooncalf fur, after that I still can't sell my dittany or mooncalf fur 😠

[low mauve]

Well I mean that was just for the story, in-game the only stuff you can sell is clothes (and beasts to Madam Peck)

[flint basin]

I know, but it doesn't make her any less of a liar really

[sour pendant]

;-; How dare u, Penny. You got my hopes up, making me think I could sell all these useless mallowsweet leaves....

[flint basin]

ikr

[tender venture]

I wonder if Fastidio and Peeves would be besties or fight each other. Or both.

[tender venture]

Madam Peck's first name is Ellie and my brain autocorrected that to Esther for a while because my character is named Ellie too. 🫣

[sour pendant]

Why did your brain auto-correct to Esther because your character's name is Ellie...?

[tender venture]

I didn't want Madam Peck to be named Ellie too. 🤣🤣

THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE 😅

[sour pendant]

lol.

[weary sphinx]

so is there any hint as to the approximate year when the keepers were alive? im wondering as one of the keepers ||used AK on isadora|| and ||faced no consequences for his actions|| so perhaps before ||those curses were made unforgiveable||?

everything ive heard in game just says "hundreds of years ago"

[flint basin]

Can't say anything for the exact years, but my speculation is ||that the other keepers looked the other way because they know there's no other choice but to kill her at that point||
||and bakar's words after he killed isidora somewhat implies that the unforgivables were already outlawed before then||

[flint basin]

||if that is the case we can narrow the year to sometime in 1700s, when ulick outlawed the unforgivables as the minister then||

[sour pendant]

Around the 1450s or so, when Gringotts was founded.

[weary sphinx]

that would make sense and mean AK isn't unforgivable yet but recent enough for hogwarts and gringotts to exist

[runic tundra]

The Keepers are from the Tudor period which occurred between 1485 and 1603, including the Elizabethan era during the reign of Elizabeth I (1558–1603).

[sour pendant]

Percival Rackham could be from the 1300s, though, 'cause he old...

[runic tundra]

I mean he's anywhwere from 50s or older based on the grey hair. We ultimately dunno his birth year but he was around when Gringotts was founded

"Vault number twelve was commissioned shortly after Gringotts was founded four centuries ago." Gringotts was founded in 1474 (The Wizarding World of Harry Potter), which means the Keepers and Isidora Morganach must have been active around this time period.

So they are before and during Tudor period based on their physical appearances and ages.

Before the the UCs are outlawed era

[fallen saddle]

The armored goblin rangok is especially not for goblin cause but for blood

Because he even stole a goblins carriage

And powerhunger

[fallen saddle]

I think after Hogwarts founded because during Harry Potter era their was no achient magic' and goblin rebellion and an elf for revenge caused goblin rebellion and before Harry Potter era it was tom riddle Era

[weary sphinx]

are the four pensive "wand parts" remnants of isadoras wand?

it seemed that way to me considering we make a wand out of it, and show the wand to the guardians to get to the repository of ancient magic under hogwarts

as in, isadora would show her wand to the guardians to get in... but then the question is: how on earth did the other keepers get in to confront her? and, why didnt the guardians attack ranrok

[sour pendant]

Because we'd already deactivated them.

[weary sphinx]

just made sense that after her death the keepers picked up her wand

so breaking it into parts that form part of the pensive charm would make kinda sense

as all the pensives tell her story from the perspective of the keepers

[sour pendant]

I feel like it's an unnecessary detail, though. I always assumed the artifacts were just things that the Keepers created especially for the purpose of the trials.

[runic tundra]

I mean the memories of wizards are infallible according to JK I read unless tampered with

so we are getting exactly what went down from the keepers memories, not an altered version

[runic tundra]

No - this is her wand - https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/harrypotter/images/1/12/Isidora_Morganach's_wand_HL.png/revision/latest?cb=20230406224319

its a different wand from the Keeper wand.

[fresh timber]

Solomon: I will immediately notify the headmaster if I catch you using any of the unforgivable curses!

Ludwig Black (my character) who used the Cruciatus and Imperius curses multiple times while defending Feldcroft: Yes sir

[mental pilot]

Another reason Solomon needed to die.

[hot anvil]

If I tell sebastian the no one should know the killing curse in the quest where he kills his uncle, can I still learn it?

I wish there was a way to say people should know the curse without saying "Yes killing your uncle was mega based"

That's gotta be one of my peeves about this game; often forces you to strongly take one side or the other

[sour pendant]

Yes, you can still learn it.

[hot anvil]

splendid

[hot anvil]

Actually, does it effect the story much if I say I agree with him just to get the curse?

[ionic haven]

No it's purely inconsequential

The only choice that matters is if you want him to take a nice little camping trip to a funny room on an isolated island with a Dementor waifu buddy for eternity or not

[hot anvil]

Dementor waifu is crazy 🤣

thx tho for the info

[north raptor]

Wait……. I thought I was the only one who got the dementor waifu 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[split tinsel]

Youre Sebastian, confirmed

[split tinsel]

This is Marie's darkest wish, dw about it

[north raptor]

Ok furry boy

[split tinsel]

I AM NAURT

[north raptor]

10000% a furry femmmmmboy

[tender venture]

Can I do the House Cup quest and then finish the rest or do I have to do everything else first?

[humble token]

You can do the House Cup quest

the world is still playable

[tender venture]

Nice, thanks!

[fresh timber]

When I fought Solomon I used Crucio and Imperio on him multiple times

[unique hound]

meanwhile i can't bring myself to start the relic quest 😔

[hot anvil]

Name checks out lol

[sour pendant]

🫂

[hot anvil]

But killing curse so good so fun

So op with dark magic skill tree....

Crowds begone

[unique hound]

haha i'm looking forward to this tbh to use in the arena

but after the solomon battle i reckon i'll need a tub of ice cream

[sour pendant]

Prepare the ice cream tub. 🥺

[unique hound]

b&j's sitting in the freezer as we speak 🥲

[hot anvil]

Honestly real
I wish I could go back and change some choices i made......

[sour pendant]

Why?

[hot anvil]

I complain about choices not mattering that much in this game and then when my choice matters it drives me crazy

[hot anvil]

I sent Sebastian to prison

[sour pendant]

...hands you a Time-Turner Do what you must.

[hot anvil]

I was tired it was late and I regret it
Gives me flashbacks to losing friends cuz they did bad things lol

Also I saw a post of someone saying it's not fair since we kill ppl who we think are bad all the time in this game
And if you look in the collection, at least one of the infamous foes doesn't actually want to be there

[sour pendant]

Which one?

[hot anvil]

Uhhh I know it's a lady
I'm booting up the game in a sec I'll check
She's an ashwinder

[sour pendant]

Well, if she didn't wanna get unalived, she shouldn't've messed with MC. 😤

[hot anvil]

I believe in her lore she never really wanted to be one and is being forced to to like provide for her family or something

[unique hound]

omg really

[hot anvil]

I lowkey do not mess with how black-and-white the morals of the main questline are made to look

Killing poeple and being like "Nah this is YOUR fault for being EVIL!!!"

I've taken too many history classes to enjoy that kind of speech towards ones enemies

[unique hound]

i do read their pages sometimes but i must've missed this one

[hot anvil]

Oh I can't send images here

[sour pendant]

Yeah, I hate black-and-white morality.

[hot anvil]

Gwendolyn Zhou
Blackmailed into being an ashwinder informant in the ministry
After being found out and fired she had nowhere to go but to the ashwinders for a job to support/protect her family

[hot anvil]

It seriously ticks me off how the game makes us either fully side with one or the other on a lot of things
A lot of the times both sides are at least partially valid

Also how the dialogue options and the actual dialogue often don't align..

[sour pendant]

For example? OwO

[unique hound]

i remember why i missed hers 😭 must've one shotted her with petritotal and didn't even realise i had a new page

[hot anvil]

A number of convos with the keepers I think, as well as when seb and ominis are at odds with each other

[sour pendant]

Ohh yes, I so wish I could side with Ominis sometimes.

[hot anvil]

Also this

(for my second point)

[unique hound]

this this this

[hot anvil]

I would but also I really wanted to learn those curses....

[sour pendant]

"I hope Sebastian takes this no further, but if you think he might, let me know. It would mean a lot." Me: sad Effie noises 'cause she can't say a damn word

[unique hound]

LITERALLY i was screaminggg

[hot anvil]

I think it does it better with Natsai's quests
Like being able to disagree with her n stuff

[unique hound]

wait so they give options to learn but disagree for the first two but not for the killing curse?

[sour pendant]

And how Ominis asks you to stand with him against Sebastian removing the relic from the catacomb, and you're like, "Yeah, sure....But also nah."

[hot anvil]

You can disagree with him and he won't teach it to you then and there but if you don't turn him in he'll be around to teach you any curses you missed in the undercroft

If you disagree with him and turn him in you just never learn the killing curse or any other curse you missed

I wish I disagreed with him and didn't turn him in.....

If there's a way to mess with my save file I might do that tbh

[unique hound]

me watching my character do the opposite when i choose to side with ominis: 👁👄👁

[hot anvil]

Yeah and also how you and ominis agree to negotiate with sebastian and your character kinda just... doesn't?

[sour pendant]

Exactly.

[hot anvil]

The game just forces you to lie and it's frustrating

[unique hound]

i gotta give credit to whoever wrote sebastian and ominis tho bcs boy did i dislike ominis at first

[hot anvil]

Yeah it was written quite well

[sour pendant]

Poor Ominis. T-T

[unique hound]

welp i still need to go through that quest anyhow 🥲 this discussion gave me fanfic inspo so thanks guys ahaha

[sour pendant]

What u gonna writeeee

[unique hound]

something 😀 not sure yet bcs i'm still brainstorming

[sour pendant]

I wanna readddd

[unique hound]

hehe okay! expect my owl later

[fresh timber]

I know there hasn’t been a Ranrok incident in the 100+ years after Hogwarts Legacy (Being the Fantastic Beasts series, and Harry Potter series) but I believe the repository should be opened for wizard kind to understand and learn about ancient magic to be able to counter it and possibly use it if an incident like what happened in Hogwarts Legacy happens again

The Keepers were just like the Jedi in Star Wars, not learning, but hiding ancient magic and locking it away because they were scared, instead of learning and interacting with it to teach future generations about to learn how to harness and counter it

[sour pendant]

If HGL2 doesn't explain why ancient magic died out, ISTG...

[fresh timber]

Thank you for coming to my TED talk about why the repository should be opened

[runic tundra]

Seems the only counter to AM is AM or Goblin silver and don't expect Goblins to give that up to wizards

and most people aren't even aware of AM and there doesn't seem to alot of AM around the world anymore anyway and those who see AM traces and fully utilize are rare af anyway.

[hot anvil]

I think it's really funny that you can cast the killing curse on ppl like harlow and it doesn't actually kill them technically

The bad guys have plot armor

[sour pendant]

lol, right?

Although...technically that doesn't contradict Canon.

[runic tundra]

The plot demands he not die so he won't. Interesting they didn't programme someone to jump in his way to take an AK hit like they did with Rookwood later

The AK curse is kinda weird though in that it needs to hit living flesh to actually do anything yet it hits clothing first normally since its intended victim would presumably have clothes on and the clothing is not alive. So it seems only metal barrier/protection will deflect the spell if one was wearing it

and maybe not even then if they are wearing it.

[sour pendant]

Avada Kedavra doesn't always work.

[runic tundra]

I mean 10/10 times it hits its victim it does work regardless of what they wear from all we've seen

Like its only block is physical barrier, Sacrifice protection magic, AM magic shield apparently, or another spell directly blocks its energy stream

[sour pendant]

Yes, but even if it hits, it doesn't always work. You have to wholeheartedly, remorselessly want to take a life; otherwise...well, it's like Bartemius Crouch, Jr. said: The whole DADA classroom could cast the curse at him and he doubted he'd get so much as a nosebleed.

[runic tundra]

Well that too

but like ur MC if u wish is totally willing to kill

and we know they are anyway cos they do canonically do so in some cases.

Like Rookwood, ya my MC has no issue killing that bastard

But Rookwood was updated to have someone save his arse every time ya try

[hot anvil]

I don't think there's anything in canon that outright forces our character to not want to kill enemies with it

Right?

[runic tundra]

Harlow has no excuse other than he needs to live.

With AK, no you don't have to learn the spell.

And canonically its not used in any cutscenes by them

[steep tartan]

i beat it!

[hot anvil]

What's this arena I've heard about?

How do I get to it and use it

[humble token]

The battle arenas? They're marked on your map, and you need to break 20 vases beforehand to activate it (idk why)

[hot anvil]

Ah okay

[flint basin]

depends on where, some require less than 20

[hot anvil]

Hey so I'm doing the phoenix den quest and the way forward is locked, and the lock just says "Locked" not level 1 2 or 3??
Do I just need a higher level of Alohomora or..?

The guides I found just say "get rid of the lock"

I've only got level 1 of the spell

[low mauve]

You should have the key if you defeated all of the Ashwinders down below

[hot anvil]

Oh I must've missed it

I've triple checked now and I can't find anyone I haven't killed already

[sour pendant]

That happened to me once. Had to redo the fight.

[low mauve]

Are you sure it's not in your inventory?

I once forgot that lock had a special key and drove myself crazy trying to find a way through without realising I had already picked it up and just had to press F to unlock it

[hot anvil]

I see an enemy marker but idk where they are and when I walk into the place before the door I get a dueling feats thing about an animagus

I guess I'll restart the thingy

Does it matter if I get them to kill each other?
Do I have to land the final blow on them is that the issue

[flint basin]

you have to kill every last one of them, and it'll be in your inventory automatically

[low mauve]

Kill them and collect the drops

[hot anvil]

Okay it worked that time, thank you!

[hot anvil]

Oh my god I was/am not prepared for the shop quest

It is LATE I went into this thinking "Oh yes I'll buy a shop before I close the game for tonight!"

Words of a NAIVE and INNOCENT man

I must appreciate the quality of shock horror or whatever though..

But why'd it have to be manniquins... I hate manniquins.... I don't like being near them....

[humble token]

My thoughts exactly 😭

[hot anvil]

Even irl they give me the heeby jeebies
I always feel a presence from them (I know it's just cuz they look like ppl but still feels creepy)

Less satisfying and more the millisecond I see one I continously cast bombarda for about 15 seconds in all directions
