Here\u2019s how you can win each round of Crossed Wands in the game. How to win every round of Crossed Wands in Hogwarts Legacy You will unlock the Crossed Wands side quest after beating Sebastian Sallow in your first Defense Against the Dark Arts class in Hogwarts Legacy. You will face three rounds of wizard duels in this quest, each more challenging than the last. Fortunately, all rounds allow you to team up with Natty or Sebastian, making the fights easier. To start round one, go to the Clock Tower Courtyard in the south wing of Hogwarts and talk to Lucan Brattleby. Round one: Initiate Round Round one puts you in a relatively easy duel, with you and Sebastian facing off against two other students. In this round, your enemies will have yellow shields you can break using Control spells like Leviosa. This round won\u2019t test your dueling abilities too much, so use it to practice blocking and enemy juggling to prepare for future duels. Round two: Adept Round Things ramp up a bit in the second round, which gives the option to team up with Natty or Sebastian to duel against three students.\u00a0 In this round, lock onto one enemy at a time, preferably the same one your teammate is targeting. Before the fight, you\u2019re also taught how to break violet shields with Force spells like Accio, so you\u2019ll need to mix and match between both Force and Control spells to break each enemy\u2019s shield.\u00a0 Additionally, make sure to roll to avoid incoming attacks or time Protego perfectly to deflect enemy spells. If caught within enemy spells like Accio or Leviosa, escape by inputting the button prompt on the screen and immediately replenish your health. Round three: Championship Round The championship round can give even the most experienced player a run for their money, so you\u2019ll want to choose your wear optimal gear before challenging it. Here, you\u2019re set to duel against a group of four experienced students, with the option of teaming up with either Natty or Sebastian or, for a more challenging experience, attempting the fight solo.\u00a0 Before the duel, ensure you have at least one spell each from the Control, Force, and Damage categories equipped on your character. Once the fight starts, lock onto the frontmost enemy and either roll away from their spells or deflect them with Protego. Once you do this, break your target enemy\u2019s shield and hit them with four basic attacks before once again avoiding enemy attacks. Rinse and repeat this pattern for the rest of this duel. After you\u2019ve broken your target\u2019s shield once, cast Stupefy at the start of your next attack string to stop your enemy from regaining their shield. Repeat this pattern for the rest of the duel, and you\u2019ll get through the championship round with relative ease. Monitor the yellow attack indicator above your head while also keeping an ear out for audio cues from enemies preparing to launch attacks at you from offscreen. Reward for winning all Crossed Wands duels in Hogwarts Legacy Each round of the Crossed Wands duels you win will award you player EXP and also add to your tally of completed side quests. After winning all three rounds of duels, Luncan congratulates you before rewarding you with the Crossed Wands Champion Garb, a royal blue outfit that players can wear as is or layer under their robes and coats. That\u2019s all you need to know about beating all three challenges of the Crossed Wands side quest.

Here\u2019s how you can win each round of Crossed Wands in the game. How to win every round of Crossed Wands in Hogwarts Legacy You will unlock the Crossed Wands side quest after beating Sebastian Sallow in your first Defense Against the Dark Arts class in Hogwarts Legacy. You will face three rounds of wizard duels in this quest, each more challenging than the last. Fortunately, all rounds allow you to team up with Natty or Sebastian, making the fights easier. To start round one, go to the Clock Tower Courtyard in the south wing of Hogwarts and talk to Lucan Brattleby. Round one: Initiate Round Round one puts you in a relatively easy duel, with you and Sebastian facing off against two other students. In this round, your enemies will have yellow shields you can break using Control spells like Leviosa. This round won\u2019t test your dueling abilities too much, so use it to practice blocking and enemy juggling to prepare for future duels. Round two: Adept Round Things ramp up a bit in the second round, which gives the option to team up with Natty or Sebastian to duel against three students.\u00a0 In this round, lock onto one enemy at a time, preferably the same one your teammate is targeting. Before the fight, you\u2019re also taught how to break violet shields with Force spells like Accio, so you\u2019ll need to mix and match between both Force and Control spells to break each enemy\u2019s shield.\u00a0 Additionally, make sure to roll to avoid incoming attacks or time Protego perfectly to deflect enemy spells. If caught within enemy spells like Accio or Leviosa, escape by inputting the button prompt on the screen and immediately replenish your health. Round three: Championship Round The championship round can give even the most experienced player a run for their money, so you\u2019ll want to choose your wear optimal gear before challenging it. Here, you\u2019re set to duel against a group of four experienced students, with the option of teaming up with either Natty or Sebastian or, for a more challenging experience, attempting the fight solo.\u00a0 Before the duel, ensure you have at least one spell each from the Control, Force, and Damage categories equipped on your character. Once the fight starts, lock onto the frontmost enemy and either roll away from their spells or deflect them with Protego. Once you do this, break your target enemy\u2019s shield and hit them with four basic attacks before once again avoiding enemy attacks. Rinse and repeat this pattern for the rest of this duel. After you\u2019ve broken your target\u2019s shield once, cast Stupefy at the start of your next attack string to stop your enemy from regaining their shield. Repeat this pattern for the rest of the duel, and you\u2019ll get through the championship round with relative ease. Monitor the yellow attack indicator above your head while also keeping an ear out for audio cues from enemies preparing to launch attacks at you from offscreen. Reward for winning all Crossed Wands duels in Hogwarts Legacy Each round of the Crossed Wands duels you win will award you player EXP and also add to your tally of completed side quests. After winning all three rounds of duels, Luncan congratulates you before rewarding you with the Crossed Wands Champion Garb, a royal blue outfit that players can wear as is or layer under their robes and coats. That\u2019s all you need to know about beating all three challenges of the Crossed Wands side quest.
