Hogwarts Legacy spells are needed to open the treasure vault in Lower Hogsfield

Before you even attempt to open the treasure vault in the Lower Hogsfield region, ensure that you have unlocked Accio and Incendio. Both spells can be obtained fairly early in the game, with Accio being learned in your first Charms class and Incednrio being learned through completing Professor Hecat’s first assignment. Ensure you have them both ready to go because you cannot unlock the vault unless you have obtained both spells.
