Hogwarts Legacy: Assignments [Steps & Rewards]

Hogwarts Legacy contains a special category of quests known as assignments. They are 12 in number, and to progress the main story, you must complete some of them first. They have one or more objectives that you can complete while doing other quests. Completing them gives you XP and unlocks a spell as a reward.

What Are Assignments In Hogwarts Legacy?

Hogwarts Legacy features 12 assignments, in addition to 42 Main Quests and 57 Side Quests, for 100% game completion. Professors at Hogwarts School assign these tasks.

Assignments are unlocked as the story progresses and often involve learning new spells. Some are compulsory for the main story.

Assignments vary, including crafting, using items, potions, side missions, mini-games, or combat-related tasks. They unlock with the main story quests and can’t be missed.

You can access assignments in the “Quests” section. Completing all tasks leads to learning a spell from a professor. Challenges linked to assignments offer gear rewards.

Assignments

As mentioned, there are 12 assignments, and each chapter of the game unlocks assignments based on the chapter’s story direction and skill level. Some assignments even require players to reach a particular level. Moreover, five assignments are required to advance in the story, while seven others are similar to side quests. The below list sorts all assignments in chronological order:

Part Of The Main Story

Professor Ronen’s Assignment

Basic Requirements

• Quest Location: Transfiguration Courtyard in The Astronomy Wing.
• Required Level: Level 3
• Pre-requisites: Complete the Quest “Defence Against Charms Class”

Objectives

• Report to Professor Ronen
• Collect the Flying Page near the broken statue.
• Collect the Flying Page in the Defense Against the Dark Art Tower.
• Report back to Professor Ronen.

Rewards

• 150 XP
• Reparo Spell

This spell will help you rebuild specific wrecked objects like carts, statues, and building structures. Hence, it is used from time to time in many missions where some broken objects’ information or use is required, or some path is blocked and needs to be rebuilt.

Walkthrough

Firstly, go to the Transfiguration Courtyard in the Astronomy Wing. Find Professor Ronen there and talk to him. Afterward, he will give you the task of capturing the Flying Pages in two locations. The first location is near the starting place, while the second is in the Defence Against the Dark Art Tower.

First Page

You will find the first page behind Professor Ronen. It will be following an abrupt path. You will use Accio Spell to capture the page. Aim towards the flying page and activate the spell. The page will contain some guide information, which is not much helpful.

Second Page

To start the quest path guide on the second page, press V. It leads to the Defence Against the Dark Art Tower, near the previous location. The page will be near the stairway; use the same spell to retrieve it.

Then, return to Professor Ronen. He will teach you the “Reparo Spell” for upcoming missions, marking the end of the first assignment.

Professor Hecat’s Assignment-I

Basic Requirements

• Quest Location: Defense Against The Dark Arts Classroom in the Astronomy Wing
• Required Level: Level 4
• Pre-requisites: Complete the Quest “The Locket’s Secret”

Objectives

• Go to Professor Hecat in the Defense Against The Dark Arts Classroom.
• Complete the two rounds of the Side Quest “Crossed Wands.”
• Complete the Side Quest “Spell Combination Practice 1” with Lucan Brattleby.
• Report back to Professor Hecat.

Rewards

• 150 XP
• Incendio Spell

Incendio is a damage-type spell that will be primarily used in combats. This spell damages enemies using fire, which is significantly effective against some enemies.

Walkthrough

Go to the Defence Against The Dark Arts Classroom in the Astronomy Wing, where you will find Professor Hecat. You may need to wait for the day for the class to start. Therefore, you can fast forward the time by going to the map and using the “skip” option. Once the class is over, talk to Professor Hecat.

Side Quest: Crossed Wands Round 1

Talk to Lucan Brattleby in the South Wing of Clock Tower Courtyard for the next task. You will have to fight your classmates by teaming up with Lucan. Your enemies will use a yellow shield spell which can be easily broken by using Levioso as a counter. Then you can attack them with your basic spells. This quest will earn you 180XP.

Side Quest: Crossed Wands Round 2

Similar to Round 1, visit Lucan Brattleby in the South Wing of the Clock Tower Courtyard. Select a teammate and challenge fellow students to a duel, using the spells you’ve learned in previous missions.

Opponents will use shields: Levioso for yellow and Acio for purple. This breaks their shields, allowing basic attacks for 180 XP.

Spell Combination Practice

Lucan Brattleby gives this side quest. You can meet him at the same spot in the South Wing of the Clock Tower Courtyard. Your task will be to battle a dummy by using various spell combinations.

• The first combination uses the spell Acio to attract the dummy towards you in the air and then hits it four times with the basic attacks spell.
• For the second combination, use Levioso to levitate the dummy and then hit it four times using the basic attack spell.
• The final one is a little challenging because you need to repeat the same spells in one go while keeping the dummy airborne. So, your spell combination should be Levioso, four attack spells, Acio, and then again, four attack spells.

You will get 180 XP by completing this side quest.

After completing these side missions, head back to Professor Hecat, who will teach you the spell “Incendio.”

Professor Hecat’s Assignment-II

Basic Requirements

• Quest Location: Transfiguration Courtyard in The Astronomy Wing.
• Required Level: Level 7
• Pre-requisites: Complete the Quest “Tomes and Tribulations”

Objectives

• Go to Professor Hecat in the Defense Against The Dark Arts Classroom.
• Dodge the enemy’s attacks by rolling ten times.
• Damage enemies by using “Incendio” five times.
• Report back to Professor Hecat.

Rewards

• 150 XP
• Expelliarmus Spell

It is a damage-type spell that will disarm all weak enemies and deal a little damage to them too.

Walkthrough

This quest is straightforward because there is no specific place to do its tasks. These tasks can be done during any combat with enemies. Moreover, the objectives do not specify it to be done in a single fight, so you can carry on your main quests, and you will eventually complete them if you find some enemies.

Dodge Roll

The first objective requires you to dodge the enemy’s attack ten times, which only works if the enemies attack you. You can dodge-roll by pressing “C.” Occasionally, the game tells you to evade the incoming attack as well.

Use Incendio

For the second part, you must cast Incendio on one or more enemies in combat. Like the previous task, you cannot complete it in one combat.

Afterward, head back to Professor Hecat and report your success. You will learn the spell “Expelliarmus” after a short conversation ends.

Professor Garlick’s Assignment-I

Basic Requirements

• Quest Locations: Greenhouses in the Library Annex, Dogweed and Deathcap
• Required Level: Level 16
• Pre-requisites: Complete the Quest “In the Shadows of the Estate”

Objectives

• Purchase or craft a Venomous Tenatacula and use it.
• Purchase or craft a Mandrake and use it on multiple enemies simultaneously.
• Go to the Herbology Class.
• Report back to Professor Garlick.

Rewards

• 150 XP
• Wingardium Leviosa Spell

Wingardium Leviosa is one of the most useful spells you can learn while doing assignments in Hogwarts Legacy. This spell allows you to levitate any object and enemies and manipulate their motion in the air. It is a requirement for some upcoming missions as well.

Walkthrough

To find the required tools/items, you need to go to Dogweed and Deathcap in North Hogsmeade. Dogweed and Deathcap is a store a little far from the village of Hogsmeade. Go inside and talk to the owner of the store, Beatrice Green.

You can buy Venomous Tentacula for 600 Galleons in the given list of items and Mandrake for 500 Galleons. Both are required to complete this assignment. In case you are out of money, you can sell some excessive items or gear in the “Sell” section of the shop. This will earn you a handsome amount for the objective.

Afterward, head to any location having a few enemies. They can be either wild beasts, thieves, or other kinds of hostile entities. Use Venomous Tenatacula first, and then throw a Mandrake when you see two or more of them close to each other.

• Go to the Transfiguration Class.
• Report back to Professor Weasely

Rewards

The Transformation Spell allows you to transform any object or enemy into random objects. It is quite useful in combat because enemies turned into objects are vulnerable, and they are unable to attack, giving you some extra time to handle other ones.

Walkthrough

This assignment requires us to find Field Guide Pages at specific locations. These pages are sometimes flying or hidden in plain sight. For the flying pages, use Acio, while for the hidden pages, use Revelio to reveal and then collect them.

First Page – Underground Harbor

To get to the Underground Harbor, fast travel to the Boathouse Foo Flame. If you have not unlocked it yet, you may need to go there by flying or on foot. Once you reach there, follow the marker using the quest path guide option. You will see a cave leading into the Underground Harbor; go inside. The Field Guide Page will be present on the docks. Collect it and move to the next location.

Second Page – Library

For the next page:

1. Go to the Library (fast travel to the Library Annex or other means).

2. Find student Sophronia Franklin.

3. Participate in a Harry Potter story quiz:

   • 1st Answer: The Golden Snidget
   • 2nd Answer: Felix Felicis
   • 3rd Answer: The Deathly Hallows
   • 4th Answer: The Quaffle
   • 5th Answer: False

4. Use Revelio to reveal and collect the Field Guide Page. Incorrect quiz answers won’t prevent you from getting the page.

5. Later, attend the Transfiguration Classroom during the day.

6. After class, speak with Professor Weasley, who will teach you the Transformation Spell.

7. This concludes all assignments related to the main story in Hogwarts Legacy.

Other Assignments

The following assignments are not a part of Hogwarts Legacy lore, but for the sake of 100% game completion, you need to do these as well. Similar to the previous assignments, these ones also focus on tasks like using items and combat techniques. Accomplishing these will unlock several spells and give XP advance to the next levels.

Madam Kogawa’s Assignment-I

This spell momentarily freezes enemies or objects. When used on enemies, it will nullify their shields and makes them vulnerable to attacks.

Walkthrough

This assignment is about popping balloons over Hogsmeade and Quidditch Pitch. To pop the balloons, you need to fly through them. At the beginning of the game, you would have only access to the brooms for flying.

Nevertheless, if you don’t have unlocked brooms yet, go to the “Spintwitches Sporting Needs” shop in Hogsmeade. This will be only available if you have done the quest “Flying Class.” You can buy yourself a broom for 600 Galleons from the shop.

Hogsmeade Station

Fast travel to any point in Hogsmeade. Ride your broom and follow the marker for the Hogsmeade Station. You will notice five balloons levitating there above the Hogsmeade Station. Fly through each of the balloons to pop it.

Quidditch Pitch

Fast Travel to Hogwarts and fly to the Quidditch Pitch on your broom. Pop all the balloons flying over the location to complete the objective.

Next, go and talk to Madam Kogawa in the Flying Class Lawn, where she will teach you the Glacious spell.

Madam Kogawa’s Assignment-II

Basic Requirements

• Quest Locations: Flying Class Lawn in the Belltower Wing, Spires, Keenbridge Tower
• Required Level: Level 5
• Pre-requisites: Complete the Quest “Madam Kogawa’s Assignment-I”

Spires

Go to the South of Hogwarts to find the Spires. Find the balloons in the sky and pop them by flying through them. All five balloons will be in a row.

Keenbridge Tower

Keenbridge Tower is located in the middle of Hogwarts Valley. You can find five balloons there. Pop them using the same method.

Once you are done popping all balloons, report back to Madam Kogawa in the Flying Class Lawn to learn Arresto Momentum.

Professor Garlick’s Assignment-II

Basic Requirements

• Quest Locations: Greenhouses in the Library Annex, Tomes and Scrolls, Magic Neep, Dogsweed and Deathcap, Room of Requirement
• Required Level: Level 16
• Pre-requisites: Complete the Quest “Professor Garlick’s Assignment-I”

Objectives

• Grow and Harvest Fluxweed.
• Obtain and use all three combat-related items/plants simultaneously.
• Report back to Professor Garlick.

Rewards

• 150 XP
• Flipendo Spell

The Flipendo spell is a force-type spell that causes airborne or levitating objects to flip in the air. Any spell can levitate these objects with similar effects like Acio, Levioso, or Wingardium Leviosa.

Walkthrough

Fluxweed

To grow and harvest Fluxweed, you need its seeds. For this, go to the South side of Hogsmeade, where you will find the Tomes and Scrolls shop. Enter the shop and buy a Potting Table with a Large Pot. It will cost 1000 Galleons.

Next, go to the West side of Hogsmeade and search for the Magic Neep. Enter the shop and buy Fluxweed Seeds for 350 Galleons. Go to the Room of Requirement and place the potting table at a suitable location.

Open/Use the potting table to grow the Fluxweed using its seeds. It will take about 15 minutes for the plant to grow. After the time ends, use the table again to harvest the Fluxweed.

Combat Plants

Professor Garlick’s assignments in Hogwarts Legacy are usually related to combating. Similarly, his second assignment focuses on all combat-related plants: the Venomous Tentacula, Mandrake, and the Chinese Chomping Cabbage.

You can buy all three plants from Dogsweed and Deathcap on the North side of Hogsmeade. But the shop sells only a limited number, so you may have to buy the seeds. The pricing of plants and their seeds are elaborated on in the following table.

Items	Price	Items	Price
Venomous Tentacula Plant	600	Venomous Tentacula Seeds	1050
Mandrake Plant	500	Mandrake Seeds	800
Chinese Chomping Cabbage Plant	300	Chinese Chomping Cabbage Seeds	600

Hence, the total of all plants is 1400 Galleons, but if you don’t get the plants, you need to go with the seeds, which cost 2450 Galleons. You can grow plants using the seeds in the Room of Requirement on the potting tables. We suggest you buy the seeds while doing assignments because these items are useful in the later missions of Hogwarts Legacy.

The next step after getting these plants will be to use them. You are not restricted to using these plants in combat, therefore, go to any open place and throw each plant one by one.

Head back to Professor Garlick in the Greenhouse near the Library Annex. Thereafter, he will teach you Flipendo Spell.

Professor Howin’s Assignment

Bombarda Spell is undoubtedly one of the most powerful spells in the game. It is a damage-type spell that deals damage in a large area.

Walkthrough

Giant Purple Toad

To find a Giant Purple Toad, go to the North Ford Bog region of the world map. There will be a location name Giant Purple Toad Nest. Go there, and you will eventually find the beast you are looking for.

Equip the Nab-Sack and press the corresponding button to capture the beast in the nab-sack. But, remain conscious because the location is filled with many hostile entities, including the Infarius and wild beasts. Do not engage in combat unless forced to.

Diricawl

To capture the Diricawl, head to Hogwarts Valley and go to the location which shows a beast icon on the map, with a keyword mentioning Diricawls. On reaching there, equip the nab-sack and start looking for the beast. You will find one soon enough without getting into any battle.

Once you have captured all required beasts, head back to the Beasts Classroom in the Bell Tower Wing of Hogwarts Castle and attend the class. When the class ends, go to Professor Howin and learn the Bombarda Spell.

For the first objective, locate a troll and defeat him in battle. The dead body of the troll leaves a troll bogey. To find a troll, head to the South side of the world map. Moreover, you can also buy Troll Bogeys from J. Pippins Potion Store for 100 Galleons.

Additionally, this objective can be completed while doing the quest “The Helm of Urtkot,” where the final boss is a troll. This fight happens in the hiding location of the thieves (Bandit Camp) who stole the Helm of Urtkot.

Cast Depulso

This objective can be easily completed by using Depulso on a levitated enemy. To levitate an enemy, you can use Levioso, Wingardium Leviosa, or Acio. Casting Depulso on the enemy will smash him to the ground dealing significant damage. Similar combinations are used a lot in combat or in a few other assignments in Hogwarts Legacy.

• Invisibility Potion – 500 Galleons
• Thunderbrew Potion – 1000 Galleons

The other way includes buying the potion’s recipes and then brewing the potions in the Room of Requirements. But this process takes a lot of time and money as well. The prices of recipes are:

• Invisibility Potion Recipe – 800 Galleons
• Thunderbrew Potion Recipe – 1200 Galleons

You can use the invisibility potion at any location, but for the Thunderbew potion, head to someplace with hostile activity. You can use your Thunderbew potion on enemies or while fighting to complete the objective.

Once all objectives are done, head back to Professor Sharp, who will teach you Diffindo Spell after a small conversation.

In this guide, we have comprehensively explained all the assignments in Hogwarts Legacy. Some of these assignments are a part of Hogwarts Legacy lore, while others are just playable as side quests.
