Hogwarts Legacy Guide: Tips and Tricks for Beginners

For the final section of our Hogwarts Legacy guide, we'll share some tips and tricks for beginners, covering points we think are important to know as you play the game. Below you will find a selection of tips and recommendations to help you find your feet in the huge open world.

Use Revelio Everywhere

There are so many objects to interact with and Collectibles to pick up that you'd never spot everything on your own. This is where Revelio comes in, a Spell that highlights things in the environment in a different colour. Whenever you're some place new, use the Spell to find things to collect and add to your inventory.

The Game Takes Its Time to Open Up

Features like The Room of Requirement and riding a broomstick have featured quite heavily in footage shown prior to release, but it takes quite a lot of time before you actually gain access to them. It takes a long time for the game to give you everything, so don't worry about whether you've missed a vital mechanic. You'll get it all eventually.

Sell Unwanted Gear to Free Up Slots

At the start of the game, you only have 20 gear slots, which are shared across every type of armour piece. It's very, very limiting, to the point where you won't be able to pick up new items if your gear slots are at full capacity. You will unlock a way to increase your gear slots, but until that happens, always sell the stuff you don't want at shops in Hogsmeade.

Use Floo Flames to Quickly Get Around

The open world is a gigantic place, so if you wish to cut down on travel time, take advantage of the Floo Flame system. This allows you to fast travel to any Floo Flame you've found in the environment, which is done by simply walking up to it. You can then open the map up and fast travel to any Floo Flame on the map.

Complete the Optional Assignments

Alongside the Main Quest and side missions, you'll also be handed optional Assignments by teachers. These are worth doing because they unlock more Spells for you to add to your arsenal, and they also further your capabilities of interacting with the environment. For example, Wingardium Leviosa is an optional Spell to learn.

That concludes our Hogwarts Legacy guide, which we hope proved helpful for whatever piece of information you were looking for. If you have any further suggestions or need an extra bit of help, feel free to post in the comments below.
