The Path to Hogwarts is the first main quest in Hogwarts Legacy. This walkthrough will guide you through all the tasks of the main mission "The Path to Hogwarts".
Reward: Lumos, Protego, Revelio Quest Info: After the dragon attacked our carriage at Hogwarts, Professor Fig and I accidentally stumbled upon a private entrance to the Gringotts Wizarding Bank that was only visible to me. In one of the bank's oldest vaults, we witnessed the memories of Pennsiva left behind by an ancient wizard named Percival Rackham, who could see the same kinds of magic as I did. A goblin named Ranrok tried to take the medallion we found, but we barely escaped with it and our lives. It seems that the fate of the entire wizarding world can rest on my shoulders. I have a lot to learn at Hogwarts and not much time to do it.

Instead, make a small detour to the left for chest behind the wall for some galleons. Then rejoin Fig and continue following him over the stone bridge he used Reparo on. After crossing the bridge, immediately go right after another chest.
Explore the ruins
Fig asks you to explore the area to find out why Portky brought you here. The minimap shows your surroundings, with you marked with a purple arrow in the middle. The yellow marker shows the current target. You can also get additional information about your current quest. Before heading to the yellow marker, feel free to explore the statue and fresco in the area, then when you're ready, go to the back of the ruins where the yellow marker and the enchanted crystallized stone are located.

Determine how to proceed
Approach the reflection and then throw Revelio to reveal the statue above the ground. After a short dialogue with Rhys, you will be able to learn the second spell, Lumos.

Turn around to face the statue until it is fully upright and get ready to press / cast Protego.

Now you should do the same thing as before, just a little different. First, face the statue that is farthest back and throw Revelio. Then drop Lumos and follow the string of light until it intersects with strings of light from the other two statues. When standing at the crossroads, all three statues will be standing at the same time, thus solving the puzzle.
Press to destroy the states with the help of the base cast
Just like before, use Basic Cast to destroy Guardian statues, with a rare use of Protego to parry their attacks and protect yourself. You can also hold / when casting a Protego, stun enemies with a drugged counterattack. Enemies that are stunned take additional damage, indicated by golden numbers.

Interacting with the glow spawns a portal that you can walk through. Go through the portal and then check both sides of the room for chest. If you are using Revelio it will be glowing gold.
