In Hogwarts Legacy, players can learn the control spell, Transformation. In order to learn this spell however, you need to finish a couple of quests and fulfill certain conditions. Get to know how to get Transformation, quests that you need to finish, and more using this guide.
Hogwarts Legacy Transformation – How To Learn
Walkthrough
- Complete the main quest “Fire and Vice”
- Wait for Professor Weasley’s OWL
- Collect the Field Guide Pages in the Library and the Underground Harbor
- Go to Professor Weasley’s classroom
- Complete the mini-game to finally learn Transformation
Do Professor Weasley’s Assignment
Although not categorized as a main mission, Professor Weasley’s Assignment is required to progress the story. This makes the learning of the Transformation an unmissable event.
To accomplish Professor Weasley’s assignment, you first need to do the following:
- Collect the Field Guide Page in the Underground Harbor
- Collect the Field Guide Page from the book on Intermediate Transfiguration in the library
Both tasks do not take time and the only hiccup may be the one in the library as you’ll have to answer a few game world trivia to get the book. After you get both Field Guide Pages, go to Professor Weasley’s classroom and learn Transformation.
Hogwarts Legacy Transformation – How To Use
Turn Enemies To Objects
You can use Transformation to turn enemies into objects that you can hurl at enemies using Ancient Magic Throw. This easily kills an enemy with one single spell and you can also take down another target with a throw. Be wary though as enemies can revert back to their original form after some time.
Better With Talent
For better damage, you can upgrade the Transformation spell using its Talent. The upgraded Transformation spell transforms an enemy into an explosive barrel, allowing you to damage more enemies using the Ancient Magic Throw or by flinging enemies at it. Again, this completely eliminates the target and is incredibly useful during fights against strong enemies.
For other talents, check out the Hogwarts Legacy Talent List.
Cannot Be Used On Large Enemies & Bosses
For balance reasons, Transformation cannot be used on bosses and large monsters like Trolls and Graphorns. You can use Transformation on their lackeys during the fight and fling their transformed allies at them though. If you are looking for a spell that is not balanced in any way, check out Avada Kedavra.
Use To Solve Puzzles
Some puzzles in the game, notably the Chess Puzzle, requires the use of Transformation. You won’t be able to solve them without this spell.
Check Out Unforgivable Curses
Unforgivable Curses are banned curses in the world of Harry Potter Hogwarts Legacy. They have been banned for a reason and they inflict tremendous damage to their targets. Learn more about them and how to get them in Hogwarts Legacy using these guides:
