Hogwarts Legacy is The ‘game’ now, especially for members of the fandom like me. It manifests our dream of attending Hogwarts and lets us live the life of a fifth year filled with adventures and missions.
No one could forget the Unforgivable Curses from the Harry Potter series. Illegal and outlawed by the Ministry of Magic, it was used by the Death Eaters. The Spells can be learned in Hogwarts Legacy, too. However, it is optional and can be rejected, and the quests associated with it can be completed without learning the Spells.
Do you wish to be a law-abiding witch or wizard, or do you wish to dabble in the Dark Arts? If your answer is the latter, you have come to the right place!
The Unforgivable Curses are taught to the characters in Hogwarts Legacy only by Sebastian Sallow, a Slytherin, during Sallow’s side quests, In the Shadow of the Study, In the Shadow of Time, and In the Shadow of the Relic.
1. How to Unlock Crucio spell in Hogwarts Legacy?
In Hogwarts Legacy, the Crucio spell can be unlocked during Sebastian Sallow’s “In the Shadow of the Study” quest. Sallow teaches the spell during the quest if you opt to learn it.
The Cruciatus Curse, when inflicted on an enemy, creates damage through unbearable pain. It is one of the Unforgivable Curses that you can learn in Hogwarts Legacy. However, it cannot be learned in any class or main quest.
Sebastian Sallow teaches the Cruciatus Curse during his quest, In “The Shadow of the Study”. During the quest, you will find a note with ‘crucio’ written on the floor. On interacting with Sebastian then, you will be given options to learn it or to refuse. The quest remains unaffected by the option you choose.
2. How to Unlock Imperio spell in Hogwarts Legacy?
In Hogwarts Legacy, the Imperio spell can be unlocked during Sebastian Sallow’s quest, In the Shadow of Time. Sallow teaches the spell during the quest if you opt for it.
The Imperius Curse, when cast on a person, causes them to be under your control, and they will do your bidding. It is one of the Unforgivable Curses that you can learn in Hogwarts Legacy. However, it cannot be learned in any class or main quest.
Sebastian Sallow teaches the Imperius Curse during his quest, In “The Shadow of Time”. During the quest, Sebastian will interact with you and offer to teach you the Imperio spell. The offer can be rejected, and the quest will remain unaffected by your choice.
3. How to Unlock Avada Kedavra spell in Hogwarts Legacy?
In Hogwarts Legacy, the Imperio spell can be unlocked during Sebastian Sallow’s quest, In the Shadow of the Relic. Sallow teaches the spell during the quest if you opt for it.
The Killing Curse, as its name suggests, when cast on a person, kills them. Avada Kedavra is the deadliest spell of the Unforgivable Curses, and it can be learned in Hogwarts Legacy. However, it is not taught in any class or main quest.
Sebastian Sallow teaches the Imperius Curse during his quest, In “The Shadow of the Relic”. During the quest, after you exit the catacomb, you can speak to Sebastian and declare that ‘everyone should know that curse.’ This will prompt him to offer to teach the Avada Kedavra spell, which you can accept. The quest will remain unaffected by your decision like the other Unforgivable Curses.
4. Is there any penalty for using the Unforgivable Curses in Hogwarts Legacy?
There is no penalty for using the Unforgivable Curses in Hogwarts Legacy. Anyone can learn it from Sebastian Sallow during his series of In the Shadow side quests and use it for a significant advantage in future battles.
Unlike in the Harry Potter books and movies, the Unforgivable Curses are not penalized in Hogwarts Legacy. At least, there is no penalty that you will get for using the Curses.
So, if you wish to dabble in the Dark Arts and are curious to live as a Death Eater, you can readily learn and utilize the curses in the game. However, remember, the Curses can never be unlearned!
5. Can the Unforgivable Curses be learned later in Hogwarts Legacy?
The Unoforgivable Curses can be learned even after they have been refused in Sebastian Sallow’s side quests. However, they can only be learned from Sallow, and he can be approached for the same in the Undercroft.
If you ever change your mind about the Unforgivable Curses, they can always be learned in Hogwarts Legacy at a later time. On approaching Sebastian in the Undercroft, he will readily teach you any of the spells you had rejected before. However, the spell-unlocking games will still have to be completed.
So, the opportunity to move over to the Dark Side is always open!
6. What is the use of the Unforgivable Curses in Hogwarts Legacy?
Once learned in Hogwarts Legacy, the Unforgivable Curses can be used without restrictions during battles and quests. The Spells are powerful and can disarm opponents and force them to be your allies. The Avada Kedavra spell can kill immediately.
As there are no penalties for using the Unforgivable Curses, you can use the Spells to your advantage to complete all the quests and defeat enemies. The Imperius Curse can help increase your manpower by getting enemies to your side against their will. At the same time, the Cruciatus Curse can also enhance your ability to release projectiles against an enemy.
The Avada Kedavra spell can enhance your ability to kill several enemies simultaneously, and the other two curses create extra damage to enemies.
So, at any time, if you wish to learn the Unforgivable Curses, feel free to meet Sebastian in the Undercroft!
