This guide details how to complete Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 in Hogwarts Legacy, focusing on the simultaneous potion use requirement. This assignment, received after the Jackdaw's Rest main quest, tasks the player with using a Focus Potion, then simultaneously using Maxima and Edurus Potions.
Reward for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1: Upon completion, players unlock the Depulso spell. Depulso repels objects and enemies, potentially causing indirect damage by launching them into each other.
How to Use Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:
The game doesn't explicitly explain simultaneous potion use. Here's how:
- Open the Tool Wheel: Hold down L1/LB to access the Tool Wheel.
- Equip the First Potion: Select a potion (either Maxima or Edurus) and release L1/LB. This equips it.
- Drink the First Potion: Press L1/LB (do not hold). The potion's effect activates.
- Equip the Second Potion: Quickly repeat steps 2 and 3 with the second potion.
- Simultaneous Activation: The game registers both potions as active simultaneously, fulfilling the assignment's requirement.
Potion Ingredients:
- Edurus Potion: Made with Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs; provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense.
- Maxima Potion: Made with Spider Fangs and Leech Juice; increases spell damage for 30 seconds.
This method ensures both potions' effects are active concurrently, completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 and unlocking the Depulso spell. Separate guides detail potion crafting and ingredient locations if needed.
