How to learn Expelliarmus in Hogwarts Legacy
After reaching Hogwarts and selecting your house, you must start attending different classes taken by professors. Professor Hecat teaches defense against the dark arts, and she will teach a few essential spells including Expelliarmus. To learn the Disarming Charm, you need to complete Professor Hecat’s Assignment 2 once the quest is available. You have to complete the following objectives for Professor Hecat’s Assignment 2.
- Successfully avoid 10 enemy attacks by dodge rolling
- Cast Incendio on enemies five times
Incendio is the first spell Professor Hecat teaches your character, and you need to use this spell to fight different enemies around the world. Keep in mind that your Field Guide won’t assist with this quest, and you’ll need to find the enemies by traveling to different locations. Hogsmeade Village is a location you will visit during the story quest, so it is best to search for enemies nearby.
You can also visit the Forbidden Forest region in Hogwarts Legacy to fight a variety of different enemies. After completing both objectives, return to the defense against the dark arts classroom at Hogwarts and interact with Professor Hecat. She teaches you the Disarming Curse, and you can equip it to any of the spell slots. After learning the spell, you can visit the Crossed Wand dueling club to practice it on training dummies.
