Tips & Tricks in Harry Potter The Hogwarts Mystery Harry Potter The Hogwarts Mystery Guide and Tips

Last update: 07 May 2018

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery offers a story mode that lasts 7 years - your whole stay in the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You can take part in various classes or upgrade your abilities. To do so, you'll need a lot of energy. Unfortunately, refilling it costs money. The chapter below contains tips for players wanting to upgrade their characters and discover the secrets of the school while avoiding microtransactions.

Wait!

If you are without energy points because the last task exhausted you, wait. The worst thing you can do is to begin an event with an empty energy bar - if you do so, you won't get any points. Put your phone down for an hour, relax, eat something and return to the game only then. During your break, your character will regenerate some of his energy points, enabling you to score points during the next events.

Avoid rushing

You've just completed a new segment of an event, chosen a reward, or a professor shows you a spell. Instead of waiting for your turn, you've made an attempt to perform the spell, which ends in a failure, as the game has read it as a mistake. In Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, you'll often need to simply wait. If you are in progress of learning a spell, the game will first show you how to do it. Even if you've seen it hundreds of times. You need to wait for your turn and perform it then.

Skip money rewards, collect ability points

In Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, the money is made by completing tasks, but cash can only be spent on clothes or haircuts. As a result, avoid wasting valuable ability points that can be received as a reward for the given task. In small amounts, money lands in your pocket while completing event points. This is a good way of gaining a lot of money without losing additional ability points.

Leave the longer events for the nighttime

In Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery you can take part in lessons that last up to 8 hours. Leave such events for nighttime - if you want to click tasks in an 8 hour event, you would eventually have to replenish your energy using gems. You don't have to play at nighttime and your character still may score a few rewards.

Be nice!

It pays off to be a good and disciplined student. Such behavior will quickly gain you a lot of points for your house as well as give you ability points to upgrade your hero. If you are bad to other students or make life miserable for the teachers, the growth of your hero will halt, while your house will be the last in the house ratings. You don't want to encounter your friends when your house is the last on the list.

Focus on studying

You probably haven't dreamed of being in the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to fight for coins or gems. Focus on classes - learn spells, make elixirs, and take part in flying lessons. Focus on studying. The quicker you develop your hero, the quicker you'll get to experience the other part of the game. Remember about taking part in lessons, missions, or meetings with friends.
