How to Use Potions Simultaneously in Hogwarts Legacy

Author:Kristen Update:Feb 11,2025

This Hogwarts Legacy guide explains how to use potions simultaneously, a requirement for Professor Sharp's Assignment 1. This quest, received after completing the Jackdaw's Rest main story mission, tasks players with using a Focus Potion, and then using Maxima and Edurus Potions concurrently. The game doesn't explicitly detail this process, so this guide provides clear instructions. Separate guides cover potion crafting and ingredient locations.

Upon completion, players unlock the Depulso spell, which forcefully repels objects and enemies, causing indirect damage by launching them into each other.
