  • More videos you'll love! šŸ‘ āœ…Combat Guide: https://youtu.be/WmlZgJBCPfU āœ…Talents (Skills) Guide: https://youtu.be/Uu_3LRIjdu4 āœ…Gear & Traits Guide: https://youtu.be/2WR5q2Xby7g āœ…Trait Farming: https://youtu.be/diTxwE-Z3ag UPDATE: It has become clear that tier 3 traits can indeed be looted from the collection chests in bandit camps. In fact, many of the best tier 3 traits are obtained this way. It seemed like you couldn't get them from these chests because it appears that the looted trait's rarity is tied to your character's level. At low levels it will be unlikely/impossible to loot a tier 3 trait from a collection chest. This is why many of us believed they could not be looted at first. Keep any eye out for my video on tips for getting the best traits! youtube.com/s/gaming/emoji/7ff574f2/emoji_u2705.pnā€¦
  • The most underrated feature with the gear is that you can make your appearance look however you want regardless of the gear you are wearing..heavily underrated
  • @bobcox9064
    THANK YOU so much for your guide videos. Iā€™m a grandpa that is helping my 7 yr old grandson play this game. I play ahead with my character so when he comes over, he plays his own character and I can help him so he doesnā€™t get too frustrated. He plays the game and I only step in after he has tried himself several times. We are really enjoying it and your videos have helped very much. Merry Christmas 2023!

    I'm 13 hours in and didn't know I could use the invisibility spell to open those chests with the eyes, I thought that would be using another mechanic I'd learn later on šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚. Also now I know how to open those number puzzle doors, great tips!
  • @TheCrazyBraz
    I found catching beasts is much easier by freezing them, as they stay frozen for longer than they are elevated with levioso
  • This game is fantastic, 8 hours in and hardly feel like Iā€™ve scratched the surface. The amount of small details the devs put into it amazes me
  • Iā€™m so glad this game didnā€™t flop. Iā€™ve loved every second of it. I just got through chapter 1 after playing for 13 hours
  • Finding out everything on my own these past 20 hours has been so fun and interesting. I held back on videos like this on purpose, I wanted to be completely lost and find my way around like a real first time student.
  • @xannondaalder1173
    Soā€¦ itā€™s like 19th century Harry Potter Assassinā€™s Creed?
  • @dubleidd5228
    A tip for all the people trying to find more pages. The ones that are invisible (only show with revelio) make a little ding noise when you cast revelio and the closer you get the louder the noise is. (A few of my friends and me in the beginning thought when any kind of treasure gets revealed it makes that sound but itā€™s only the pages)
  • @TelesphoreArt
    Thank you for actually explaining things without giving unnecessary details. Truly no spoilers and truly wonderful video.
  • @arvandor6820
    One huge tip I'd recommend that i wish I'd known sooner is to READ ENEMY DESCRIPTIONS. It'll tell you useful weaknesses for some obnoxious and powerful enemies. I learned a lot of them through duelist tasks (and a couple on accident), before realizing that they were all listed in the compendium thing.
  • I didnā€™t know you could open the chest with eyeball by turning invisible, I missed out so many chests there. Thanks for the tips!
  • THANK YOU! Iā€™m not a gamer, just a Harry Potter nerd trying to keep up with my kids playing it. This was so helpful, Iā€™m sure half your total views will be from me rewatching it.
  • This game is one of the best I've played. They have really hit it out of the park with this game, and the love and care they have for the Harry Potter universe is just amazing. Also beyond a bit of confusion regarding the map and inventory handling, I really LOVE the controller layout of this game! Once you start getting some muscle memory going and given that you plan your spell sets in a good way you'll feel in full control of what you're doing, which is no easy feat because the amount of combat systems in this game is pretty damn complex. The way they guide you to each particular system is so well done that you really feel like you are growing as a student of Hogwarts. Also even if you're not using the PC version and can't change the FOV they have this GREAT mechanic where you can see when you're targeted by enemies by the halo above your head and the ground around you, so even if you can't see an enemy attacking you from behind you will know if you're being targeted. Simple excellent in every way!
  • A tip that I love is collecting a bunch of mooncalves (because they're super easy to capture) for easy money and really utilizing the room of requirement. Get the conjuration spells for the hopping pots that give you potions, the tables that give random ingredients, seed packets, etc because it's basically just free supplies every time you walk in there and you're going to need them further along in the game. Also something I wish I didn't do was procrastinate on unlocking the upper level alohamora spells just because I don't like stealth missions...it got really annoying when I was trying to collect ancient magic and even go on side quests and had to abandon them halfway through cause I couldn't unlock a door. I didn't start watching any videos like this until after I got over 40 hours in the game because I wanted to learn to navigate it on my own first but there were a few things, like those random statues in the hall that I couldn't figure out! But now this gives me another excuse to run back around the castle and explore it again.
  • 8 hours in and I just got the tutorial about the health, defense, and offense ratings on the gear screen. So good. Been a while since Iā€™ve played a game that I canā€™t wait to play again as soon as I have to turn it off.
  • I got over 80 hours in the game, absolutely amazing. Itā€™s definitely a must play!

    I found out that accio will automatically become a wingardium leviosa if you cast it into objects that require the wingardium spell to complete a puzzle or any other helpful reason, that way you can avoid having to switch and hopefully save a spell slot. Edit: Actually if you are using Accio on an object (not enemy), once you try to move it up thatā€™s when it will switch to Wingardium.
