This Hogwarts Legacy guide details how to complete Professor Sharp's Assignment 1, focusing on the simultaneous potion use requirement.

Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1: Unlocking Depulso

Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 Reward

Successfully completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 grants players the Depulso spell, described in-game as: "Repels objects and enemies with force. While not directly damaging, it can launch foes and objects into each other for devastating results. Also useful for manipulating objects."

Using Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously

Simultaneous Potion Use

The key to this assignment lies in understanding how to use two potions simultaneously. Here's how:

  1. Access the Tool Wheel: Hold down L1/LB to open the Tool Wheel.
  2. Equip the First Potion: Select a potion (either Maxima or Edurus) and release L1/LB to equip it.
  3. Drink the First Potion: Press L1/LB (don't hold) to consume the equipped potion.
  4. Equip the Second Potion: Immediately after the first potion's effects activate, repeat steps 2 and 3 with the second potion.
  5. Completion: The game registers the simultaneous activation of both potions, fulfilling the quest requirement.

Potion Ingredients:

  • Edurus Potion: Brewed with Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs. Provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense.
  • Maxima Potion: Brewed 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 powerful Depulso spell. For detailed crafting instructions and ingredient locations, consult other Hogwarts Legacy guides.
