How to Use Potions Simultaneously in Hogwarts Legacy

This Hogwarts Legacy guide explains how to use potions simultaneously, a requirement for Professor Sharp's Assignment 1. This quest, received after completing the Jackdaw's Rest main story mission, tasks players with using a Focus Potion, and then using Maxima and Edurus Potions concurrently. The game doesn't explicitly detail this process, so this guide provides clear instructions. Separate guides cover potion creation and ingredient locations.

Reward for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1:

Upon successful completion, players unlock the Depulso spell. This spell forcefully repels objects and enemies, causing knock-on damage by launching them into each other. It’s also useful for manipulating objects.

Using Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

To use the Maxima and Edurus Potions simultaneously:

1. Open the Tool Wheel by holding down L1/LB.
2. Select one potion (e.g., Maxima) and release L1 to equip it.
3. Drink the equipped potion by pressing L1 (don't hold).
4. Once its effects begin, quickly equip the second potion (Edurus) by repeating steps 2 and 3.
5. The game will register both potions as active simultaneously, fulfilling Professor Sharp's request.

The Edurus Potion (Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs) provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense via rocky skin. The Maxima Potion (Spider Fangs and Leech Juice) boosts spell damage for 30 seconds.
