Hogwarts Potions: The Ultimate Guide to Equipping Multiple Draughts

by Emily Feb 08,2025

This Hogwarts Legacy guide explains how to use potions simultaneously, a requirement for Professor Sharp's Assignment 1. This quest, received after completing the Jackdaw's Rest main story mission, tasks players with using a Focus Potion, and then using Maxima and Edurus Potions concurrently. The game doesn't explicitly detail this process, so this guide provides clear instructions. Separate guides cover potion crafting and ingredient locations.

Reward for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1:

Upon completion, players unlock the Depulso spell, which repels objects and enemies with force, causing indirect damage by launching them into each other.

Using Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

To use both potions at once:

  1. Press and hold L1/LB to open the Tool Wheel.
  2. Select a potion; release L1/LB to equip it.
  3. Press L1/LB (don't hold) to drink the equipped potion.
  4. Once its effects begin, quickly repeat steps 1-3 for the second potion.
  5. The game will register the simultaneous activation, fulfilling Professor Sharp's request.

Potion Ingredients:

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