There are plenty of spells to learn in Hogwarts Legacy. They will come in handy during missions, combat, and exploration. Locked doors can be opened with Alohomora, while enemies can be disarmed temporarily and damaged with Expelliarmus. Other enchantments, such as Incendio and Protego, can make a difference in many situations.
You can learn all of them, including the Unforgivable Curses if you wish, as you progress in the game. You must complete different quests, either tied to the main story or related to professors’ assignments and relationships with other students, to be able to cast them.
Hogwarts Legacy spells list
Different types of spells can be unlocked in Hogwarts Legacy. Essential enchantments are a valuable asset during combat and exploration, and Control spells will help you handle a fight without necessarily dealing direct damage. Force enchantments allow you to move objects and enemies, while Damage spells are your best option to win any battle.
Utility enchantments come in handy during many occasions that don’t necessarily involve fights. Transfiguration spells can only be used in the Room of Requirement to customize the available space. Lastly, you can also unlock the infamous Unforgivable Curses, but learning them is not mandatory.
