As you venture further outside the castle grounds, you’ll stumble upon many Treasure Vaults and chests throughout your journey. However, not all of them are easy to find and require you to decipher the secrets of ancient maps. With this guide, we’ll focus on how to complete the Cursed Tomb Treasure quest in Hogwarts Legacy to unlock a valuable cosmetic.
Hogwarts Legacy Cursed Tomb Treasure Quest Guide
You can travel to West Manor Cape to begin the Cursed Tomb Treasure storyline of Hogwarts Legacy:
Before you begin the mission, it should be noted that you need to have Alohomora Level 3 by completing part of Gladwin Moon’s Demiguise Statue adventure. It isn’t required to collect all of them, but you’ll still need to give him a considerable number of statues by this point.
With that out of the way, you can follow this step-by-step guide to finish this quest:
- Locate the old manor in Manor Glen.
The house will be at the Ancient Magic Hotspot waypoint.
- Find an underground tunnel.
Once inside the manor, you’ll find a staircase that goes underground.
- Use Alohomora on the Level 3 Lock.
- Keep traveling down the manor.
It shouldn’t be too difficult to find your way around the house (go in the direction of the waypoint), but you should be mindful of your surroundings since there will be a few enemies nearby.
- Defeat the Lord of the Manor and Ailsa Travers.
Players will encounter a powerful Inferius and the sinister witch Ailsa Travers further down the pathway. You can defeat them by getting rid of Ailsa’s protective barrier with one of the Force (purple) spells and unleashing pyro attacks, like Incendio and Confringo, on the Inferius types (they are weak against this.)
- Open the locked chest.
You’ll obtain a map of the following location.
- Exit the manor.
You can go back the way you came or cast one of your pyro spells on the platform in the room to reveal a hidden doorway that leads you outside (step on the button-like structure.)
- Go to the Tomb of Treachery in the Poidsear Coast region.
The map will lead you to a waterfall where you can unlock the Tomb of Treachery Floo Flame.
- Enter the doorway.
- Walk straight forward to the tunnel.
Players can check out the other rooms to collect treasures and a cosmetic.
- Turn left and cast a pyro spell on the spider web.
- Gather the butterflies for the door puzzle.
The first two butterflies can be found in the room on the right side. Therefore, you must use Lumos on each of them and guide them to the puzzle location.
- Go to the room on the left.
- Use Accio to drag the crate to the wall.
- Climb up to reach the last butterfly.
- Complete the door puzzle.
- Defeat the enemies.
- Find the stone puzzle from the map in the center of the room.
- Use Flipendo on the three stones.
- Search the chest.
Once you open the chest, you’ll be rewarded with the Treasure-Seeker’s Attire and XP points. Players can equip the new cosmetic by selecting it in the Outfits section of the Gear tab.
