Hogwarts Legacy Potions Guide: All Ingredients & Locations

Brew up a storm by learning how to find the ingredients for every potion in Hogwarts Legacy!
Hogwarts Legacy Potions Guide: All Ingredients & Locations

As a Hogwarts Legacy player, you will learn many spells, brew potions, and uncover many secrets of the wizarding world. While spells are essential for aspiring wizards or witches, potions are just as important. These concoctions can provide powerful boosts to spells or protect you from enemies, making them an essential tool in your arsenal. In fact, if used correctly, potions can make you somewhat overpowered in the game.

However, acquiring ingredients for potion-making can be challenging, especially if you don't know where to find them. That's why we've compiled a comprehensive list of every potion and the location of every potion ingredient used in Hogwarts Legacy. This guide lets you know exactly where to find each component, ensuring you'll never be in short supply. So without further ado, let's get started.

Where To Find Every Potion Ingredient In Hogwarts Legacy

Hogwarts Legacy features six potions, each with unique effects and ingredients. For instance, the Focus potion reduces spell cooldown time, the Maxima potion increases spell damage, the Invisibility potion makes the drinker invisible, and the Thunderbrew potion creates a storm around the drinker, stunning and damaging nearby enemies. Other brews include the Edurus potion, which makes you invulnerable to attacks, and the Wiggenweld potion, which heals you.

Each potion requires 2-3 ingredients, comprising plants you can forage, plants you can grow and harvest, and monster loot (found in monster lairs). In the case of harvestable plants, you can purchase their seeds from The Magic Neep or Dogweed and Deathcap in Hogsmeade and grow them in Potting Tables with either Small, Medium, or Large Pots (the recipes for each can be acquired from Tomes and Scrolls in Hogsmeade).

The table below lists the locations where you can find every potion ingredient in Hogwarts Legacy. Please note that forgeable items are found throughout the map; however, we've provided a few locations where they might be found in excess because listing all of them will be practically impossible, given the sheer size of the game's map.

As a useful tip, you can force new forageable ingredients to spawn by advancing time. Staying in the same vicinity, open your map and then advance the clock a few times. After waiting, you'll find that the forageable ingredients for your potions will respawn! Another useful tip is to forage ingredients as you explore the map on your broomstick.

And that's everything you need to know about where to find the ingredients for every potion in Hogwarts Legacy! With our comprehensive guide, you'll be able to find all the ingredients you need to create powerful elixirs and boost your spells to new heights.
