Potion Mastery: Unveiling the Secrets of Concurrent Brewing

by Joseph Jan 11,2025

This Hogwarts Legacy guide explains how to use potions simultaneously, a key step in Professor Sharp's Assignment 1. This quest, received after completing the Jackdaw's Rest main story mission, requires players to use a Focus Potion, and then use Maxima and Edurus Potions concurrently. The game doesn't explicitly detail this process, so this guide provides clear instructions. For crafting details and ingredient locations, refer to our comprehensive Hogwarts Legacy potion guide.

Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1:

Reward for completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1

Successfully completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 unlocks the Depulso spell. This spell forcefully repels objects and enemies, causing knock-on damage. It's also useful for manipulating objects.

Using Potions Simultaneously

To use the Maxima and Edurus Potions simultaneously:

  1. Open the Tool Wheel by holding down L1/LB.
  2. Select one potion, release L1/LB to equip it, and then press L1/LB again to drink it (don't hold).
  3. Once the first potion's effects begin, quickly repeat steps 1 and 2 with the second potion.
  4. The game registers both potions as active simultaneously, fulfilling Professor Sharp's request.

The Edurus Potion (Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs) provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense. The Maxima Potion (Spider Fangs and Leech Juice) boosts spell damage for 30 seconds.
