- Hogwarts Legacy: 100 hours to realize Expelliarmus does this in Hogwarts Legacy...
Did you know using Expelliarmus on a executioner type enemy while they're casting their elemental spell causes them to use it on themselves?

Voldemort was not an evil wizard. He was just trying to compete with our legendary body count.
Considering how many dark wizards and goblins I've murdered and my play style, I changed from my cute stylish outfits to more of an assassin look. Asylum mask, dark arts robe hood up (so hat invisible), legendary outfit, scarf invisible. My style is disillusionment, using basic cast to lure an enemy away from his buddies (if there are many enemies), then casting Accio from a distance pulling them further away and killing them fast and then back into stealth. I pick them off one by one. Unless they're spread out, then I can petrificus them all one by one. Or if I'm at the top of a cliff looking down on them, Accio and let them fall to their death.
@@esunablizzard6482 we must remember though, their blood is on Ranrocks hands. Naturally, we had nothing to do with it.
“How could that damn Hufflepuff who started as a 5th year and slayed half the goblin population make me look like a good guy?!?!” - a very angry wizard with no nose.
I find it crazy that no one discovered the power of not killing anyone in the game yet 🤣
Or no one is talking about
I shouldn't have said that
@@esunablizzard6482 I just murder hundreds of people and creatures in my pyjamas and a whimsical nightcap. 😅
I was more blown away that you pulled the Ashwinder into the fire right when it was casted
i even MORE blown away that the Enemy seemed to react to it by saying: What have you done!
@@LaCazaLP to be fair they say what have u done all the time
@@thesovereignsparkyeah, but it rarely makes sense like it did there. 🤪
Yea that was the coolest part for me too lol
Cast (past, present, future tense) .... casted isn't a word!!!!!
If it makes you feel better for taking that long to realize that, it was driving me crazy not being able to go into the other part of the dorm. For the longest time I was like “I MUST KNOW WHAT LIES BEYOND THE FORBIDDEN BARRIER!”.
Then on the day I beat the game I finally realized…it was just the girls’ dorm lmao
What's worse is the girls can go into the boys dorm but boys can't go into the girls dorm.
@@GuitarsNAmmo That's accurate to the books because Ron says to to Hermione it's not fair
@@GuitarsNAmmo well guys are dirty perverts tbf
@@GuitarsNAmmoit’s taken from the books. Harry and Ron once tried to go talk with hermione and stairs didn’t let them. And hermione later explained that hogwarts creators decided that boys aren’t to be trusted due to their adolescence and puberty)
@@danzansandeev6033 nah that's jk Rowling not trusting boys
I think this is the canonically prime example of what it looks like when the Spells rebounded.
Yes. Sad a game could do it but not the movies. The movies resorted to rebounds being a priori incantatem. Looked like Dragon Ball Z ki battles.
@@rocafella142i mean movie budget gonna skyrocket if they do all of those in the movies
@@michaelsteven5504 i mean those movies made about 8 billion dollars...
@@michaelsteven5504 nah the Dumbledore vs Voldemort fight in Order of the Phoenix shows that they have the ability to do it.
@@gergobotfai8916doesn’t mean the budget will equal that
If you read the cards in the collections there are all kinds of cool things like this you can do. Flipendo will make a troll smack itself with it's club after it smacks the ground and misses you with it. When the big spiders rear at you, you can use Descendo and make them stick their heads in the ground. If you use Levioso on Dugbogs when they use their tongue attack, it will lift them up by the tongue and you can slice it off with Diffindo to immediately kill them.
I found it kinda lame that the 'cool trick' of lifting and slicing the dugbogs was the ONLY WAY to deal decent damage to them. They're wicked spongy to EVERYTHING else and effectively immune to most other control spells. Probably the most BORING enemy to fight because of that.
Where did you get all this alpha?
@@GreatScottTheGamer it basically tells you to do that under DUELING FEATS. Almost every encounter has 1-3 dueling feats listed in bottom right corner
@@GreatScottTheGamer once you fight an enemy you can read the cards in your collection and it tells you their weakness
@@StBrodes You can also deal decent damage to them, if you hit the with a force spell liike flipendo or accio, after theyve charged you. It flips them on ther back, making them vulnerable.
I had no idea you could turn animagi back into human form using the transfiguration spell until a dueling feat told me to do it lmao
There are note cards when viewing the enemy types, it gives great tips on how to beat them quicker. There are definitely some things that only come up in the dueling feats though.
I did it out of curiosity to see what happened 😆
saw that feat but never managed to do it lol
I did it on accident and then it checked off the dueling feat
I didn’t know that until I read your comment. And I already beat the game with my level 37 Slytherin. I’m level 25 now with my Hufflepuff and he’s about to get more dangerous.
I’m now realizing how much development went into the combat. Wow. Okay. They really expanded the world/lore just with the combat. The possibilities are just crazy, you can do stuff with spells I never would have thought of because we haven’t had a good example of combat with magic prior to this. This is insaaaaane!
We need more games with a magic only combat system. Imagine a Doctor Strange game like this...
And really simple! I mean, how many spells do we have in this game? Maybe 15 if we count the curses. That's brilliant.
@@ezequielgutierrez3774 24 spells
@@ezequielgutierrez3774 nah more spells needed
@@freddykhan4751 To be fair, it's more spells than Harry casted over the course of ALL 8 OF HIS MOVIES. Haven't read the books, but I presume they weren't much better in that regard.
And then there's me hiding in the bushes casting flippendo from a safe distance lol
They teach you that with the duelling feats. "Disarm an Executioner as they are casting their fire spell" or something of that sort.
they also just plain explain it to you in the collections description
Let's be real here! Everyone feels like a mad lad when they have all that power. This game is the ultimate power trip once you have Destruction spells under your belt and it feels so good. Like I just wanna wash my face in it it'd so refreshing. So satisfying. So Shoney's.
Facts. I love going around and just finding loads of enemies to fight now that I am close to 100% completion. Taking my time with the rest of what I have left lol. Enjoying every second of it.
Voldermot approves this message
Avada Kedavra!!!
I love shoneys
@swankypants6227 never had them where are they?
Fully upgraded adava kedavra: one shot kill 💀
Fully upgraded expelliarmus: biblical accurate flaming tornadoes 🔥🌪️
Avada Kedevra automatically one shots as soon as you get access to the spell, idk what youre talking about. Would defeat the whole purpose of even having that spell if it didnt one shot
What an idiot
Never upgraded expeliarmus and still had that effect on the firestorm casting people.
Shame we don't get to use these spells. Might be awesome combat openers. Altho I can't imagine they being practical if npc's can just walter out of the aoe.
I was able to kill up to four people with one single Avada Kedavra. There is a talent that makes the spell rebound on every single enemy that is cursed and within the area. After that, I became like the notorious mass murderer Sirius Black
The feats tell you to disarm them while they charge their lighting ability too.
Well, now I know why... TBH, I just look for the ones that are like: "Try not to guzzle Green Energy Drink while fighting 1 Dark Mongrol 0/1" for those.
Leggit came here to say this, people just dont read anything anymore.
@@WJAMSoares right, like flip a dugbog after it charges at you, or when it's about to attack with it's tongue you can use levioso, or you can flip the club back into a trolls face after they smash, slam a spider matriarchs head into the ground when they charge up an attack. There is a lot of stuff that you could do to make the combat much more fun then it already is, you just have to read the feats or the enemy descriptions.
I'm over 40h in the game and still didn't have that feat, only one to slow them down while they charge lighting spell.
and the collection menu has a section for enemies. It literally tells you that his guy can have his spell go crazy if you interrupt him mid-cast. In other words, what we just saw....
Once I read about it in the enemies’ description I couldn’t stop using it, you can also use aresto momentum on them to make their spell go on longer and just accio and/or depulso those enemies in them
With all the people role playing as dark wizards, I really wish they would have added some morality scale that impacted questlines. It would have been awesome if the final quest was a battle for Hogwarts, where if you were good you defended it, if you were evil you attacked it
hopefully we get stuff like this in the next game, really hoping they continue developing in this same direction
Yes, because if I don't want to walk dark magic, I can be better dodge the dark sheild breaking spells that can kill me one shot. Or I can sneak up to them and have fun until they are a barrel floating ready to blow. Which is really yhe dark art?
What is the purpose of being a wizard if you cannot show your true self?
That's why it's worthwhile to read info on the various enemies in the collection section. It tells you about all of these special spell interactions. For example, for duelists I think, if you hit them with diffindo when they're casting I think reducto (whatever the unblockable one is), it will cause them to lose control and hit one of their friends with it instead.
If a wizard duel was choreographed by the John Wick choreographers.
"I am surprised I can style on all the students with this spell." - Tom Riddle, probably.
Just learned this yesterday but you can actually throw the arrows from archers when they shoot, you have to press throw right as the red indicator appears
Not sure if this is from the beginning or unlocks with the talent to throw weapons at enemies.
@@Orpheelover I don’t have that perk and I can still do it so yea still just from the beginning
Seriously kept getting dueling feats to steal an arrow from Rangers but could never get it to work. Then late game accidentally did it while trying to throw objects
@@dislikecounter5191 wait so in short, hit the throw button like you throw objects to enemies when red indicators of an archer ready to shoot you to throw back the bow back to him?
@@danialm17 not the bow the arrow. Expeliarmus let's you throw the bow
ngl that accio into the pillar of flame was smooth and big brain asf
Combat in this game use to straight up frustrate me. Now I love the hell out of it. I straight up gang crap in this game. Now that I have the timing. There times I just wipe out bad guys with out ever taking a hit. Heck even wiped out entire camp before they can really do anything. Its nasty when you get the timing down.
The game also has some pretty crazy power growth, though. Early on I had to rely on combos in order to do enough damage, now I oneshot most enemies with a stupefy cast and bombarda just deletes people. I have avada kedavra, but I honestly don't even need it.
@@LazzyVamples Same here. My Avada Kedavra is exclusively used for the freaking giant spiders like the acromantulas, they freak the crap out of me.
I took out a whole pack of mongrels with the protego blast skills and that was it. Didn't have to fire a shot. Made me feel powerful af lol
once u unlock more spells its more fun
The combats almost too easy, especially if you choose to dodge every time and not even bother with protego
Most enemies have a counter to their strong attacks that leave them vulnerable for a time. Flipendo a troll with a club to do MASSIVE damage (after they go for a blockable club smash)
Do you have to block it first and then flipendo? I haven’t gotten it to work yet
For the ones that throw rocks, you can protego and then hit RB (don’t stupify) and you’ll throw the rock at them which gives a huge debuff.
You can also expelliarmus the goblins and throw their weapon back at them.
@@flakdampler11 block, then immediately cast Flipendo. make sure you don't use Stupefy.
there's a lot of wacky stuff you can do with some spells that i only realized because of the dueling challenges. stuffing a spider matriarch's head into the ground, making someone hit themself with their own spell, flipping a trolls club back into his face using flippendo, the list goes on
how do you do that matriarch bit because i just can’t seem to figure it. is it decendo?
Yes
@@sateleim the matriarchs only do uncounterable (red circle) attacks but if you notice time really slows for them as they charge, that window of time is when you need to use descendo
@@danielwithane911 nothing slows down on hard mode, it's impossible to cast descendo after you see a red circle, you have to watch its movement.. But yeah, it does descent damage and increases damage done while its stuck
@@iraklitulashvili2820 they didn't mention having the game on hard mode
It would be so funny and challenging if every time you used Avada kedrava the ministry of magic showed up to battle you trying to take you to Azkaban 🤣
I wish. It would be like in Baldur's gate 2, when you casted spells in the city then the Cowled Wizards would come to try to arrest you. You would have 7 or so duels with increasingly higher and higher wizards until they would send an elven princess (who canonically is an undead lich that body swapped into her) to try to murder you and if you beat her then they just give up and let you cast spells anywhere in the city.
Someone with PC mod had something like this
That is described in your guide. Not only it tells you about types of enemies, it also tells weak spots, like doing expelliarmus while they are casting the fire.
Yeah, casting the killing curse is like a mercy kill after all that
Yeah, can find out all the cool stuff you can do with different enemies in the collections. You can even arresto momentum them to make the fire last longer (or lightning) and pull or push enemies into it to deal massive damage. Great when fighting tough enemies. Some other interesting ones are using certain spells on some enemies to make them hit another enemy or using the transfiguration spell on the animagus when they transform to make them transform back
In the PC version of HP and the chamber of secrets, expelliarmus is used a a spell that can bounce the enemies' spells. I'm not entirely sure if at the time that was considered canon, but I guess they implemented it in Hogwarts Legacy maybe as a nod, maybe as a way to give more uses to the spell, but is still kinda cool to see the spell working as a counter again.
yea you basically played badminton or tennis with the spells
in the books and movies expelliarmus just disarms the opponent, causing them to lose their wand
i think it might be that they drop their wand right as the spell is cast, which casts it at their feet.
most enemies in the game have some sort of interesting interaction when you hit them with a specific spell when they are doing a specific action. Worth reading the cards in the collections to know what those are
I learned all the counters by paying attention to the Duelling feats.
Ravenclaw? I did that too and also saw the captions that said to read your field guide to find out what everyone is weak against
Love your fighting style btw, looks elegant is how I'd describe it. Like a planned out set of moves. I tend to panic and just go berserker mode! 😂 Gets the job done but I should read the enemy cards more and learn this stuff. Great video.
Same ahahhzha lol
Actually all of these secret takedowns are in the field guide for that enemy type when you first meet them.
basically every enemy has their own weakness and by reading their bio in Collection page, you will know which spell to use on which enemy.
Like hanging the frogs by their tongues then slicing them open. Magical dissection!
or by looking at the combat feats, which almost always tell you how to exploit an enemy's weak point sooner or later.
Or using avada kedrava
@Dragonchaos666 I did that on accident the other day lol it was awesome
I love how the killing curse an instant death is worse than all the other ones that kill slower
Right? I always thought Crucio was scarier than that.
I read that in the journal that expeliarmus on a enemy casting disrupt it and turn the spell against them
The same way transformation on a polymorphed enemy turn them back human and stun them for a while
That accio into the fire spin was perfect
Would’ve been dope if this fire tornado was an upgrade of “incendio” that we can cast
Kind of bullshit that it isn't.
Oh well, back to Dragon's Dogma. No fire tornado but you can at least cast tornadoes.
The way you pulled in the enemy into the flames
Was gas
I simply spam my spell combinations. During a big fight there's no time to switch to each characters specific finishers. I only focus on the weaknesses. It's either fire, ice or force.
To be fair, the combat in this game is so fast paced most wouldn’t realise this. It’s pretty much a button spam system that heavily relies on dodging, parries, cool-downs etc that you rarely take battles slowly.
It literally tells you to do this as a dueling feat
Anyone else think the show they are making should be as brutal as this fight haha
If you follow the “feats” challenge, you’ll see a lot of spells can be used at specific moments to do crazy things, but I find it a bit niche cuz you have to time it very carefully and in most fight you cant
When I get a combat challenge like that, I kill everyone else first, and save the target till last. Then you can just block until they cast what you need them to cast, and easily achieve your feat
An somehow the killing curse is "unforgivable" while burning somehow alive in a massive fire tornado that is a danger to the surrounding area, is completely fine
00:17 Why was this pillar of fire summoned?
Nvm I get it, the timing of the first one made it feel like it was player made.
That game has one of the most dynamic and great looking gameplay. Combos make it even better.
Always do Duelling Feats. Great way to learn counters and have fun with it!
0:28 I've never seen that swirl effect on the wand during a finisher. Very cool!
I've finished this game now .. wish it was longer , it feels like the end game should only be the beginning of this adventure , they surely can't aim to leave things hanging like that and only doing your 5th year it feels unfinished.
Spoilers
After the ending like if you decide to open the thing your basic casts should be like a green and black bolt as you have aligned with the dark arts . Same as if you chose to seal it, your basic casts should be a bright white/red mix to show you aligned with good
Wish this game had a morality system in place and had consequences to using the unforgiveable curses. They HAVE to bring dlc .. I'd much rather this world expanded upon and me able to take my character through the whole school years then pursue a career after school say a death eater where you recruit an army etc or an auror and work for the ministry or a simple merchant life where you would be approached by the ministry and the dark arts users to help aid them in the coming battles by supplying gear and potions and fill out orders and choose a side. This game could be so much more , but like everything these days the should be never happens and your left disappointed. Hopefully they do flesh this world out a lot more.
get a life man
You should email someone
@UK-ALPHADOG They've announced that there will be no DLC, at least not in the form of a full, paid DLC. That's probably due to the idea that they're making a second game.
I have a feeling with the success of this game that the Legacy may be around with more to come for many years to come. We must cast Patiencious Amongus my gaming fam.
@@KarmaWolf63 yeah i really dont wanna wait for a whole other game when they can just do a dlc i dont get it
you should read the tips and watch the tutorials. at some point it says that expeliarmus will do what you just noticed
PC loads so fast i cant read the tips
@@Kaspaverse same lols
I don't have time to read the tips on my pc.
its funny how clueless you idots are. it shows on your screen when you run into enemies not while youre loading dumbasses

Man’s rundown on the opps like he was on get back gang timing
Bro did u just use Expeliarmus to cast fire or am I just bugging?
Expelliamus can make the enemy cast the spell on himself, he used Expelliamus when the enemy wanted to cast, so enemy cast on himself instead
You can also use leviosa to rip a spider in half while it digs underground
Took me forever to figure out the vanishing spell also deletes conjured items 😆
But that's all it's used for... Or am I missing something?
@Ulisses Junior it's also to remove certain objects like the stack of chairs in some places but that's about it haven't really used it outside of ROR
@@TacTar ohhh interesting! I usually just explode them lol
Ok but are you ignoring the fact that you jumped in and immediately nuked a guy with a barrel. This crap has me rolling omg.
What was the spell you used immediately after on the guy standing in the wall? Looked like a basic cast but mine don’t look like that…
It was just ancient magic
@@trapwz what's ancient magic throw?
@@gdvvgdfv where you tap r1/rb and throw an object/disarmed weapon at enemies
This is incredible! How did you get the fire tornado?
Ah yes, a harmless spell... Indeed.
Well if it makes you feel any better, it took me up until the Rookwood fight to finally understand how Stupify actually works...
100 hours and only has 3 bars of Ancient Magic. 👌
Same lol
@@CpTn_QwRk lol one of the first things I did was do the ancient magic sites and merlin trials to max out that stuff and help out
@@rosie684 I’ve just been doing side quests and and attacking random outposts and roaming enemies 😂 but I probably should get those ancient magic things done pronto
@@CpTn_QwRk yea they're helpful.... Honestly though not as helpful as maxing out inventory space.
That's why you read information about the enemies you've encountered in collections...
You can one-shot dugbogs with levioso + diffindo. You can one-shot ashwinder rangers with stupefy. You can one-shot mongrels with depulso. You can freeze an executioner with arresto momentum and then pull other enemies into lightning/fire. You can also one-shot some enemies with diffindo or glacius before they manage to cast a spell, but the timings are hard.
And I guarantee you this, if you slow down the executioner MID WAY OF their casting, and then DEPULSO enemies into the piller of fire / Thunder, they will die :)
Have fun!
Se usar levitar ou flipendo na aranha quando ela tiver entrando na terra também causa dano massivo.

Quando uma aranha grande for te morder e você usar nela descendo, ela morde o chão e fica presa.

I also realized after playing for so long that holding Accio on certain objects triggers Wingardium Leviosa.
Harry Potter is full of JUJU
theyre out here casting leviosars while this guy is casting adava kedarva
Incinerating people with fire tornados seems way worse than a spell that simply unalives them
It’s always a habit to hop out out of danger even knowing I’ll counter it…
Making so expell can rebound spells is such a nice attention to detail.
I had to google how to make a troll get hit by his own club after I finnished the story
I believe that the Executioner posing like that while casting the fire pillar is a Doom 2 (1994) reference because an enemy called Archvile strikes the exact same pose while casting pillars of fire at your location.
Bruh you pulled him in to the flame tornado🤯 big brain
100 hours? I beat the game on max difficulty in like 30 for my first playthrough
Probably did all the side content that was available. The side content is very time consuming
If I were you, every single person there would’ve gotten an AVADA KEDAV-
The Avada Kedavra at the end was really the icing on the "F you guys" cake
-…levios….
- !!!AVADA KEDAVRA!!!
Sounds about proportional, like toddler vs hydrogen nuke
It’s crazy how your created wizard maxed out can solo all of the ministry of magic with almost minimal effort lol
The stuff you can do in this game makes Avada Kedavra look like a mercy.
that poor girl at the end was just casting levioso and she got avada kedabred :v
I didn't understand what expelliarmus did in this video.
if the enemy is about to cast the firestorm and in that exact moment you use experliamus he casts on himself
ah yes, as if the enemies collection actually existed in this game lol
Imagine reading the field guide on enemies which tells you this and more...
It took me a long time to realize that expelliarmus makes executioners’ spells backfire on them, and I didn’t know until I started paying attention to the combat feat prompts in the lower right of the screen. It’s ridiculously satisfying to watch executioners kill themselves, especially since they damn near killed me earlier on in the game.
100 hours to work out something the game tells you fair shout 😂
I have no clue what’s happening and don’t even know when you used expeliarmus
me either 🤷🏾♂️
That's why there's a duelling feat for it. Same with the lightning executioner.
one of the duelling feats lets you discover that
did...did you just parry a magic fire twister?...
This dude kinda scary just so ruthless id want this guy on my side lol
This one combat you just showed me just made me want to get Hogwarts Legacy more than i already have
I mean, it does make sense, especially since a dueling feat has you use it when they use the lightning attack.
If you read the guide, Expelliarmus redirects spell on mage/caster type enemies.
oh dang I didn't think to pull someone into the fire vortex....
Man! Wizards can explode somebody in to pieces with the "allowed" spells. Yet Avada kevdara is "unforgivable"
That's cuz you didn't read your collection tab. It tells you all their weaknesses. If you slow them down as they cast that spell the fire tornado will last longer.
Today I just found out if you “push” the troll after you flip the club into him he drops the club and falls over so he’s extra stunned
You learn this through dueling feats if you pay attention
Meanwhile...I cast accio, glacio and confrigo for the billionth time and panic when one of them is on cooldown.
They actually tell you this in the collection section of the enemies all their weaknesses
Talent towards AOE spells and everything dies in a matter of seconds together, this took an insanely long time XD
no HP fan can tell me that killing a dude in a fire tornado is worse than adava kedabra
