How to Use Potions Simultaneously in Hogwarts Legacy

Author:Kristen Update:Jan 25,2025

This guide details how to complete Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 in Hogwarts Legacy, focusing on the simultaneous potion use requirement. This quest, received after the Jackdaw's Rest main story mission, tasks players with using a Focus Potion, then simultaneously using Maxima and Edurus Potions. The game doesn't explicitly explain this dual potion use.

Reward for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1:

Upon successful completion, players unlock the Depulso spell. Depulso repels objects and enemies, causing knock-on effects and useful for manipulating objects.

Depulso Spell Unlock

How to Use Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

  1. Access the Tool Wheel: Hold down L1/LB to open the Tool Wheel.
  2. Equip the First Potion: Select a potion (Maxima or Edurus) and release L1/LB to equip it.
  3. Drink the First Potion: Press L1/LB (do not hold) to consume the equipped potion.
  4. Equip the Second Potion: Immediately after the first potion's effect activates, repeat steps 2 and 3 with the second potion.
  5. Simultaneous Activation: The game registers both potions as active concurrently, fulfilling the quest requirement.
