How to Complete The Hippogriff Marks the Spot in Hogwarts Legacy
Before you begin the quest, you will want to make sure that you are at least Level 13 and you have completed Tomes and Tribulations. Then, head over to Poidsear Castle.
Retrieve the Rolled Parchment from the Table in Poidsear Castle
Once you defeat the many enemies that surround the area, head inside and you will find a rolled parchment sit-in on a table. Collect the parchment and look at it. This is Henrietta’s Map, which you will be using to find the treasure.
Head to Henrietta’s Hideaway
The Hideaway can be found in Manor Cape, below the manor.
Defeat the Enemies
Once you’re inside, you will be faced with two waves of enemies and a couple of simple puzzles. First, defeat any enemies in your path.
Puzzle #1
When you come to the first puzzle, you will see two circles on the ground with spell symbols on them. Light the fire in front of the statue to your left to reveal a cube that must be placed on the corresponding circle. Using Wingardium Leviosa, move both cubes to their circles and cast the spells that they show on them on each cube. This will open the doorway to the next puzzle.
Puzzle #2
Following the pattern of lit fires on the map, light the fires surrounding the Hippogriff Statue in the middle of the room after you’ve cleared out all the enemies. The fires should be lit in the North, West, East, and Southeast of the statue.
Get the Treasure
Once you light the fires in the correct order, the passage containing the treasure chest will open up.
Once you collect the treasure, you will have completed the quest.
