How to Disarm an Ashwinder Pre-Lightning? Answered

In order to disarm an Ashwinder before they cast their lightning spell in Hogwarts Legacy, you’ll have to cast an Expelliarmus spell of your own. The key is to wait until they begin to wave their wand. As they prepare to cast the spell, a flicker of light will appear from the tip of their wand; that’s when you hit them with the Expelliarmus spell. Time it right, and they’ll be disarmed before it strikes you.

Typically, those casting a spell shout out the name of it before doing so. In this case, the lightning spell doesn’t have a name, therefore its tell is the flicker of white light instead.
