I have a build where I roleplay snape's ancestor, Rochecan Snape from 1800's. I maxed out room of req section for plants and potions. Then maxed dark arts for using unforgivable curses. Been lots of fun. Got Herbology 3 on all gear so my plants destoy stuff. Couple chomping cabbages destroy a troll fast. 1200+ damage a bite
@Sydney Thanks. Was planning on enjoying it. Plant build is major OP. Chomping cabbages dont break stealth and they one shot most mobs. Funny seeing them go down and others saying hello someone there? Nope just us cabbages. Like your idea for character too
I no longer bother with the extended stupefy; it's unnecessary, for the same reason as the extended curse. I really like the stealth style, but I put a point into sprint under disillusionment rather than extended potion time. I just don't need it. On my last couple of playthroughs the only invisibility potion I used was the one Fatimah Lawang made me drink, which I also used to complete Sharp's assignment. Did you know that with stacked Ambush III you can do a big accio mastery pull followed by incendio mastery to kill everything without breaking stealth? Surprised me, too, but I love it!
Watched this once before unlocking talents and again after unlocking the talents - thank you for your analysis it helps put things into perspective! Keep up the awesome work!
@@theblueantelope Nah, after playing Diablo 2 for decades, the best thing it came to the game was the patch that allowed you to reasign your whole skill tree if you didn't like it. It was a godsend as you can make mistakes and you can replay the fun parts of the game, rebuilding your character from where you left, without the need to replay the whole thing over just because. And, you don't need to use it if you don't want it, so you can create your own rules for it, like "just gonna use it if I misclick" or if something is bugged (although HL doesn't seem to have bugs in its spells, but Diablo 2 did). Anyway, I like having the choice without the need to replay the whole campaing
I really hope UA-cam has paid you fairly well for your videos, because I'm sure you've helped so many players with your guides. Thanks for all your hard work.
I have almost finished the game--I have about 10 unused points and it's not too challenging... all stealth skills are useful, and cabbage and mandrake help are really powerful--especially if you take mandrake traits. The imperius trait is really strong too.
The one about doing a manual save before spending talent points is solid gold. You could probably do a video all about points in the game where it makes sense to do a manual save before proceeding
I love the video, very helpful introduction to Talents. My own build is more stealthy, but still focused on combat. I have only one Talent from the Dark Arts card, the Stupifying Curse, but almost all of the Spell and Core cards. I have all of the Stealth card Talents. (And one from the Room card, the extra Chomping Cabbage!)
Love your content bud! One note - the HP potion talents give fixed HP amounts. The first talent boosts Wiggenweld by 900HP, the second talent adds an additional 2300HP. So it NEVER makes any sense to take the second Wiggenweld talent at any point before level 29 or 30--you simply don't have enough HP. You kind of made that point also, but the math is painful! It's like a cruel trick for that perk to be available at level 16 when it is mathematically useless.
Honestly didn't even bother getting those talents. The combat is too easy to be focusing on talents that increase the potency of Wiggenweld, and I prefer to use those points on the Dark Arts or the Core talents.
I barely got the game about 2-3 weeks ago nd tbh ik why couldn't that future be when yall where playing it but now i guess you can by buying the points to reset them nd now cuz I've seen this video thank you nd now i know what to spend them on thank you have a good day
i Tried to avoid dark arts but Unfogivable III is just really stronk and using Arresto Momentum as a opener with the curse perk (which knocks opponents up), then unloading with Descendo which does extra damage to oponents that are floating, and following up with Glacio, and then Bombarda is just too good IMO
Sometimes I let my vegetables fight for me lol But I am totally the non-combat/exploration/stealth type. Everything you mentioned for that section is what I focused on.
I'm definitely not a combat build. Some people complained about the Stealth build and Chomping cabbage being broken, but if you can't get through life (the game) using another method then all wizards who can't pass DADA are just bound for death.
On my third play through and was curious of others builds. Came by to see what your build was after finding you in the search, was helpful and straight forward so giving a like. Thank you!
@@DonDeLem I saved before trying it out and I didn't feel like it did much to help. At least not for finding pages more easily since it's not like the pages show up through walls like chests enemies.
I feel like extending the duration stuff is visible, or even making it a toggle, would've been a good addition. As is, if you're the type of player that explores at all, Revelio is gonna be your most-cast spell throughout the game...
On my 2nd playthrough right now, and I will definitely be using this video! I appreciate all the tips that you have included in this video and even more so because you went over each one with clear and concise detail. I did had some questions that popped up whilst watching this video but you always end up addressing it either a few seconds later hahaha. Incredibly organized and thoughtful video! Thank you for making and sharing this video and the trait spreadsheet! ^^
Bro I like your video lay out and your script. At the point you mentioned hitting the like button, I was thinking… man this dude is very helpful. Like with “make a save file try these talents if you don’t like them reload and try another set.” That’s old knowledge but it’s cool you’re being helpful. I appreciate your video.
Awesome this video is just what I needed. PC players can get a mod to reset their talent points, but I just don't know which is the best. Thanks for the vid!
I avoided getting the Levioso Mastery talent, and I'm glad it was a good idea to ignore it. I almost never use it in combat, and if I do, it's typically because all my other spells are on cooldown. That doesn't happen often at all considering I have 3 different spell sets with offensive capabilities and groups of enemies are typically dead before I can even use everything. Accio pulls enemies into the air anyway, so I got the Accio Mastery to mix it up with Descendo and Incendio (along with their corresponding Mastery talents).
@@deejae8124 - Same. I only think about it with dugbogs and even then, they get demolished when you use a Force spell after they pounce at you so Levioso isn't the only option for them. I do love slicing them tho 😂
You get the occasional tough fight where being able to Leviosa one cluster of enemies while you Accio another group can be the difference. Also, if the enemy is close to the edge of a cliff or fortress wall it's easier to knock them off the edge with a Leviosa followed by a couple of standard attacks. Some of the fights against infamous humanoids go a lot easier if you can juggle between Accio and Leviosa cooldowns. Otherwise Accio is the better choice.
Same, but I also didn´t get the Accio Mastery. Accio is incredibly useful to single out enemies in combat, why would I want to pull a whole group into my face when I can effectively combo only one or two of them? The rest will just be in my face.
Multiple save files for messing around with all talents is such a simple workaround to the "permanent" side of spending points but damn, man... Totally BIG BRAIN moment! Thanks. 😊😊
In my playthrough, I honestly should not have used talent points on the Room of Requirement talents, since I never used the potions or plants besides Wiggenweld Potions.
I never use potions unless it’s health and I use a lot of combat spells and stealth so what’s the best way to use my extra talent points cuz I use curse spells to
Awesome vid! I running my 1st build as a Gryffindor no Dark Arts exploration build! I like to take my time searching for everything in the game! Then my next build will be a Slytherin Dark Arts total destruction build! Great vid, keep up the good work! Liked & Subbed! ;)
i had tons of talent points left over -- and basically didnt use at least 9 by end of game --- most of the stuff was useless to me as i lack the co-ordination for protego - and my veg were far more potent than anything else i could do. but endurus potion is a must i would think for any build (and extra bars just a necessary convenience) - as well as wiggenweld increased healing
I only used 11 points total. 3 of them for the Spell Sets. I've got 24 unspent at level 39. I need to finish that Field Guide to get that last point, hit 40, spend the Talent points, and get the Level 40 Trophy and the "spend all Talent points" Trophy.
Great video, I love the Stealth play so that was my first maxed tree. I don’t use Ancient Magic except for Keeper Trials are more difficult content so I skipped all Ancient Magic talents. Ive mastered all Magic, Curse, Plants and Stealth Talents. So essentially dropping Ancient Magic, Shields, and Potions, except Edurus, thats just too OP to skip. As for Revelio talent, blegh, what a complete waste of a talent. They should’ve let you upgrade it like Alohomora through a quest.
The venomous tentacula does an insane amount of damage with herbology III and breaks shields I argue that it’s very worth it. I drop two of those with the cabbage AND a thunderbrew and I literally didn’t have to fight late game lmao
Looking at the creator's footage he doesn't seem to use his plants from stealth. Even with the slow rate of fire tentacula's will clear a camp while you stealth around looting the containers.
True. I don’t really play using stealth, so that’s a good point. I could see how they’d be useful in you want to play that way. I’m just not patient enough 😅
The developers have done a really good job of making all the talents useful, as long as your playstyle uses the related spells/abilities/consumables. So much so that I don't think there is any talent that everyone should drop. Even talents that a lot of people recommend dropping, are actually good, it's just they don't fit into the playstyle of the people recommending them. While I originally thought that I could easily drop talents for spells I don't use, the different enemy types, and their weaknesses to specific spell combinations, means that I make use of almost every spell. I think most players will make use of most of the talents in the Core Tree, and should focus their early points there. However, for almost everything else, it's just so playstyle dependent, that there is no way to recommend the right talents to a player, without knowing an incredible amount about how they play.
my first run im doing as if it was me at hogwarts so im doing no unforgivable curses or even any dark arts talents my second run im going to be a fullout grindelwald and just abuse the dark arts and my third run im just gonna buff all the the plants and mainly use them to fight for me because we love botany
OK. Now as I understand it, you can only get 40 in the finale and some people are having trouble even then, so as a practical matter for most of the game the effective maximum is 35 points. That's right, is it not?
Honestly I avoided all the room of requirements talents a d went all in stealth and dark arts and did a few in core and spells. I didn't get 4 sets as I stopped at 2 since beside a mild inconvenience it's not that much time consuming having to change spells.
Think you for saying about swift I was worried about it I was tense, nervous, unconfortedit was mad crazy native bad disaster terrible narstey ugly you are a life saver
My new characrers don´t have Basic Cast Mastery anymore, it´s only 0.1 second decrease, so you need 10 basic hits, to rduce the cooldown by 10 seconds, put that point into knockback Curse (Flipendo) with both Disarming and Knockback Curse, you have an excellent basis for Unforigvable playstyle.
@@acousticwolf5985 In my Dark Arts run, bombarda since i didn't really use it and in my non-dark arts run, venemous tentacula. I also never needed the extra healing from the potion since i found the enemies drop so many plus the combo healing
In some fights it's a bit tricky, fighting mobs of dark wizards you sometimes get 2 different enemies targetting you, one will throw a blockable spell, the other an unblockable one, if you don't dodge you get hit for massive damage so you may as well dodge.
^ I dodge a lot when it comes to wolves also. They attack simultaneously and their attacks are very quick (on Hard, anyway. Haven't tried the lower difficulties).
Don't have the game yet, but I plan to use 1 of the 4 spell wheels/diamonds as a utility one. Lumos, Disillusionment, probably the Nab-Sack. Keep that for general use and swap out for the RoR spells. Which is stupid, couldn't they have coded it so you get those spells automatically put on your wheel when in the RoR? And the Beast Care stuff while in the Vivarium? The RoR spells you literally CAN'T use elsewhere in the game, so it's kinda pointless clutter in your spell sheet.
@@DragonKnightJin switching these spells takes 2 button promps and like 10 secs. It´s not a big deal, no idea why people are making such a fuss about it
@Arktix At 4:00 you mention taking Sense of Secrecy I and Sense of Secrecy II. Does taking II decrease the enemies ability to detect on top of I even more; or is this one of the Talents where both are not needed?
Personally i find it good that u cant get them all because what fun would that be? However its pretty lame that u cant just manually reset them or even pay some gold for it so im gonna start a new character cus 1. My wand looks ass cus i accidentally pressed accept right away. 2. My talents are all fucked up cus i didnt know all of this. And 3. Cant really remember right now but it was something important aswell😂
The chinese chomping cabbage has been patched to only allow the player to summon 1 and not 3 anymore. I’m playing the switch, so not sure if this patch was across all platforms.
Very smart, that’s what I do as well, there are some spells that I just don’t use, so I don’t upgrade it in the first place lol I made sure my core was all filled because that’s overall type of thing.
@@MisterK9739 Quite the oppossite! Farming is not an issue with the Fertilizers, you will have more plants than the ones you use. You still do combat normally since you are still using spells and everything (and that's indeed the most fun part about the game*), you just not use the super broken versions of those spells, such as pulling 4 people with just 1 accio or igniting everything around you with 1 Incendio. Which makes the game quite difficult in late scenarios! Also, stealth in the build is forbidden. Trust me, it's quite good.
@@serendipity4346 my guy, your potions can make you invincible, create a thunderstorm around you, boost your spells by a crazy amount... all while your cabbages chomp down enemies, and mandrakes stun and even kill everything in sight. how is that hard. It´s literally the easiest way to play the game. You let it play out itself, you don´t even have to do alot
My sister has the game, and she's letting me play it a bit when I visit. She's a Hufflepuff and probably not gonna do much with the Unforgivables/Dark Arts. My wizard is a Slytherin and like you: Gonna pick up some Dark Arts talents and the Unforgivables.
I can never get stupify to trigger no matter what I do with protego! How do I get stupify to work on xbox pc controller? I press the Y then hold down and no stupify!!!
Why use an invisibility potion when you can just use the invisible spell that lasts as long as you have it turned on? Don't quite understand the purpose of it since there's already a spell that arguably does a better job than the six seconds you get with the potion. You can also get the talent that allows you to sprint while using the invisibility spell, too, so I really don't get the purpose of the potion at all. Anyone got any ideas?
As explained in the video, you're not completely invisible while using the disillusionment charm. With the potion, you are totally invisible and can't be noticed.
@@ArktixOfficial yeah I actually made that comment before I got to that part of the video lol. Thanks for your tips, man. I just got the game about a week ago and I am totally hooked. It was pretty overwhelming at first but guides like yours have helped me start off at a good trajectory, so thanks for that! One more question: so if you’re only partly invisible using the disillusionment charm, what’s the point of it? Does it make you appear fully invisible to certain enemies, or is it just like the enemies won’t notice you right away? It just buys you a few seconds of time before you get noticed? Could you theoretically get that same outcome just by being stealthy and hiding behind things?
Gotcha. Glad your enjoying it! So the Disillusionment charm will keep you undetected unless you get too close and it will last indefinitely. The invisibility potion will keep you undetected no matter what. But it only lasts a maximum of 8 seconds.

Thanks! Glad you’re finding them helpful 😄
Info worth more than a like 👍👏
Hey thanks! Glad you found this helpful!
Ty so much :) I appreciate your help :)
You’re very welcome! Glad you found this helpful 😁
This was very helpful
Much Appreciated 🙏🏻
Glad you found this helpful! 😁
OK. Now as I understand it, you can only get 40 in the finale and some people are having trouble even then, so as a practical matter for most of the game the effective maximum is 35 points. That's right, is it not?
Great video! Helped a lot. Thx😊
Very helpful!
Thanks! Glad to hear that!
You can now unassign and assign at will, you can swap and chose on the fly!
Yeah it's nice they added that!
I wish I hadn’t gotten enduring curse talent either. Didn’t know that enemies would be one shot by level 30. Even on hard difficulty 😢
it's a bit weird to me the fact that you can't get all the talents but awesome guide, anyway!
Im still holding on to hope that we get a DLC in the future, adding new levels resulting in getting more talent points etc.
are you on pc? i just gave myself the 4 remaining points. with the save game editor mod. lame that you can't have them all so i fixed that haha
get all the curse talents it is game changer when you chain them together for fast masssive damage
Is there a way to reset the talent points 🤔
Honestly I avoided all the room of requirements talents a d went all in stealth and dark arts and did a few in core and spells. I didn't get 4 sets as I stopped at 2 since beside a mild inconvenience it's not that much time consuming having to change spells.
Thank you for explaining everything!!! I’m new to the gaming world so it is hard for me to know what to do on games that you have free will at.
Think you for saying about swift I was worried about it I was tense, nervous, unconfortedit was mad crazy native bad disaster terrible narstey ugly you are a life saver
With which spell you bounce enemy on the ground repeatedly?
My new characrers don´t have Basic Cast Mastery anymore, it´s only 0.1 second decrease, so you need 10 basic hits, to rduce the cooldown by 10 seconds, put that point into knockback Curse (Flipendo) with both Disarming and Knockback Curse, you have an excellent basis for Unforigvable playstyle.
Wdym
@@duffal0 That a 0.1 cooldown reduction per basic cast hit is not worth the talent point.
@@paristeta5483 is that under core or spells I haven’t seen a talent with that
@@duffal0 Core -> Basic Cast Mastery
I too have talents I regret getting. Now thanks to the video I have even more. Min-maxing for the next playthrough! Great video
Do you mind telling which talents you regret getting ? Thanks!
@@acousticwolf5985 In my Dark Arts run, bombarda since i didn't really use it and in my non-dark arts run, venemous tentacula. I also never needed the extra healing from the potion since i found the enemies drop so many plus the combo healing
Sir, Ty!
Glad you found this helpful!
I love your combat videos. Can you do a video that goes over the dueling feat challenges? I’m having problems doing some.
Can u tell me how to equip talent skill and from which button I could use it..?
So talents/skills are not equipped. You simply unlock them and they work passively. There is not a button you need to press to use them.
My combat strategy is feeding vegetables to my enemies during a thunderstorm.
Lol nice 😁
Feeding enemies to my vegetables in a thunderstorm.

There are so many people I’ve seen not using protego and just dodge instead. There’s such a benefit to using protego
Especially talented protego, now i need to hit that perfect protego more often.
In some fights it's a bit tricky, fighting mobs of dark wizards you sometimes get 2 different enemies targetting you, one will throw a blockable spell, the other an unblockable one, if you don't dodge you get hit for massive damage so you may as well dodge.
^ I dodge a lot when it comes to wolves also. They attack simultaneously and their attacks are very quick (on Hard, anyway. Haven't tried the lower difficulties).
I also preferiti dodging in games but because I'am not good at perry.
the 4th spellset is a luxury im saving that point for something else. other than beast care and ROR decorating, i can fit all i need on 3 sets
Don't have the game yet, but I plan to use 1 of the 4 spell wheels/diamonds as a utility one. Lumos, Disillusionment, probably the Nab-Sack.
Keep that for general use and swap out for the RoR spells. Which is stupid, couldn't they have coded it so you get those spells automatically put on your wheel when in the RoR?
And the Beast Care stuff while in the Vivarium? The RoR spells you literally CAN'T use elsewhere in the game, so it's kinda pointless clutter in your spell sheet.
@@DragonKnightJin switching these spells takes 2 button promps and like 10 secs. It´s not a big deal, no idea why people are making such a fuss about it
@Arktix At 4:00 you mention taking Sense of Secrecy I and Sense of Secrecy II. Does taking II decrease the enemies ability to detect on top of I even more; or is this one of the Talents where both are not needed?
I'm at lvl 39 before the fourth trial, I thought you could get max level before finishing story but apparently not.
I'm lvl 31 and only have 64% of the challenges completed. I stayed away from the main story for a while. I'm just about to learn imperio.
Thanks great help for a New "B" !
You can also grind capturing beasts later in the game
Awesome!
Thanks!
Personally i find it good that u cant get them all because what fun would that be? However its pretty lame that u cant just manually reset them or even pay some gold for it so im gonna start a new character cus 1. My wand looks ass cus i accidentally pressed accept right away. 2. My talents are all fucked up cus i didnt know all of this. And 3. Cant really remember right now but it was something important aswell😂
Get GOVEE T2 RGB Lighting for your TV
The chinese chomping cabbage has been patched to only allow the player to summon 1 and not 3 anymore. I’m playing the switch, so not sure if this patch was across all platforms.
I just kept lvling n unlocked it all
5:46 I think depulso is also worth not to spend a point on.
If I’ve made the amateur mistake of selecting dark arts talents early, should I restart?
Question this is my first time playing this game should I get both 1-2 knowledge talents at the same time or at different times what would be smarter
Might we wise to get 1 first and then get a few other talents before picking up the second one. You’ll want them both pretty quick though.
I just spend my talents according to what I use the most
Very smart, that’s what I do as well, there are some spells that I just don’t use, so I don’t upgrade it in the first place lol I made sure my core was all filled because that’s overall type of thing.
im going mostly for a dark arts exploration what talents would be best for that
Levioso + Depulso Mastery = Yeet Wizard = best build
You guys should try an Apotechary build, no upgraded spells, no ancient magic, full room of requirement upgrades, no curses.
sounds like a lot of farming and just walking during combat. Why would I want to actively avoid playing the game? Combat is so fun
@@MisterK9739 Quite the oppossite! Farming is not an issue with the Fertilizers, you will have more plants than the ones you use.
You still do combat normally since you are still using spells and everything (and that's indeed the most fun part about the game*), you just not use the super broken versions of those spells, such as pulling 4 people with just 1 accio or igniting everything around you with 1 Incendio. Which makes the game quite difficult in late scenarios!
Also, stealth in the build is forbidden.
Trust me, it's quite good.
@@serendipity4346 my guy, your potions can make you invincible, create a thunderstorm around you, boost your spells by a crazy amount... all while your cabbages chomp down enemies, and mandrakes stun and even kill everything in sight.
how is that hard. It´s literally the easiest way to play the game. You let it play out itself, you don´t even have to do alot
The levioso one not to bad when you hover them above a cliff and let ‘em fall
First playthrough Hufflepuff stealth and combat focus NO dark arts.
Second playthrough Slytherin full dark arts
My sister has the game, and she's letting me play it a bit when I visit.
She's a Hufflepuff and probably not gonna do much with the Unforgivables/Dark Arts.
My wizard is a Slytherin and like you: Gonna pick up some Dark Arts talents and the Unforgivables.
The unforgivable curses are clutch when facing multiple opponents.
I can never get stupify to trigger no matter what I do with protego! How do I get stupify to work on xbox pc controller? I press the Y then hold down and no stupify!!!
Why use an invisibility potion when you can just use the invisible spell that lasts as long as you have it turned on? Don't quite understand the purpose of it since there's already a spell that arguably does a better job than the six seconds you get with the potion. You can also get the talent that allows you to sprint while using the invisibility spell, too, so I really don't get the purpose of the potion at all. Anyone got any ideas?
As explained in the video, you're not completely invisible while using the disillusionment charm. With the potion, you are totally invisible and can't be noticed.
@@ArktixOfficial yeah I actually made that comment before I got to that part of the video lol. Thanks for your tips, man. I just got the game about a week ago and I am totally hooked. It was pretty overwhelming at first but guides like yours have helped me start off at a good trajectory, so thanks for that!
One more question: so if you’re only partly invisible using the disillusionment charm, what’s the point of it? Does it make you appear fully invisible to certain enemies, or is it just like the enemies won’t notice you right away? It just buys you a few seconds of time before you get noticed? Could you theoretically get that same outcome just by being stealthy and hiding behind things?
Gotcha. Glad your enjoying it! So the Disillusionment charm will keep you undetected unless you get too close and it will last indefinitely. The invisibility potion will keep you undetected no matter what. But it only lasts a maximum of 8 seconds.
Do I wait for the spell knowledge III or do I need all of them to get 4 spell slots
Just enjoy the game, there's no perfect way to play the game rather than enjoy it. 🎉
I hope the raise the level and hopefully we can unlock all of them. That was stupid on their part
Playing with Slytherine house like good person. So for now there is no dark art talent. But now i can make a build more effectively
Slytherine is the dark arts house
@@Based_investor dude the game is mine i can play whatever i want chaotic evil hufflepuff'ın or lawfull good Slytherine. The decision is mine
@@basariyaaciz of course you can. But your sentence reads like, "I'm part of the Aryan Brotherhood like a good person. So there is no racism."
I have level 30 right after getting crucio it's extremely easy to level up and you can get level 40 easily
