Simultaneous Potion Optimization in Hogwarts Legacy

by Carter Jan 20,2025

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, then simultaneously using Maxima and Edurus Potions. The game doesn't explicitly detail this dual-potion usage. Completing this assignment rewards players with the Depulso spell.

Rewards for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1:

Depulso Spell Reward

The Depulso spell repels objects and enemies with considerable force, causing knock-on damage. It's useful for both combat and puzzle-solving.

How to Use Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

Using Potions Simultaneously

To use Maxima and Edurus Potions simultaneously:

  1. Open the Tool Wheel by holding down L1/LB.
  2. Select one potion and release L1/LB to equip it.
  3. Press L1/LB again (don't hold) to drink the equipped potion.
  4. Once the effects start, quickly repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second potion.
  5. The game will register both potions as active concurrently, satisfying Professor Sharp's request.

Edurus Potion (Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs) provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense. Maxima Potion (Spider Fangs and Leech Juice) boosts spell damage for 30 seconds. Separate guides detail potion crafting and ingredient locations.
