How to Use Potions Simultaneously in Hogwarts Legacy

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 simultaneously using Maxima and Edurus Potions. The guide clarifies the often-unclear in-game instructions on simultaneous potion use. Separate guides detail potion crafting and ingredient locations.

Reward for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1:

Successfully completing the assignment unlocks the Depulso spell. This spell forcefully repels objects and enemies, causing knock-on damage without directly inflicting it. It's also useful for manipulating objects.

How to Use Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

To use Maxima and Edurus Potions concurrently:

1. Open the Tool Wheel by holding down L1/LB.
2. Select one potion and release L1/LB to equip it.
3. Drink the equipped potion by pressing (but not holding) L1/LB again.
4. Once its effects begin, quickly repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second potion.
5. The game registers both potions' simultaneous activation, fulfilling Professor Sharp's request.

Edurus Potion (Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs) provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense via rocky skin. Maxima Potion (Spider Fangs and Leech Juice) boosts spell damage for 30 seconds.
