Unlocking every lock in Hogwarts Legacy is directly tied to completing the side quest given by Gladwin Moon, the caretaker of the castle. By collecting Demiguise Statues scattered across the highlands, players learn higher tiers of the unlocking spell Alohomora. Mastering this quest allows players to explore hidden rooms, collect valuable gear, and uncover secrets throughout the wizarding world.
Starting the Quest with Gladwin Moon
To begin the quest, players must talk to Gladwin Moon in the Grand Staircase area after completing the necessary main story assignments. The caretaker explains his irrational fear of Demiguise Statues and requests your help in removing them from the castle and surrounding villages. Collecting the initial statues demonstrates your capability and unlocks the first level of the Alohomora spell.
Gladwin Moon promises to teach advanced levels of the spell as you bring back additional statues. Navigating through locked doors becomes much easier once you understand the mechanics of retrieving these magical items. Each successful delivery brings you closer to full access across the entire map.
Where to Find Demiguise Statues
Demiguise Statues are unique collectibles that only glow and become interactive during nighttime in the game. Players can easily switch the time of day using the map screen to ensure the statues are ready to be harvested. You can find these glowing figures inside faculty quarters, village homes, and secret shops.
Searching through Hogsmeade and smaller settlements across the countryside will reveal several statues hidden behind locked doors. Using Revelio frequently while exploring at night will highlight their glowing blue outline through walls. Keeping a steady checklist of visited locations ensures you do not miss any statues tucked away in obscure corners.
Upgrading Alohomora to Level 2 and Level 3
Upgrading your unlocking capabilities requires turning in specific quantities of Demiguise Moon items to Gladwin Moon. Delivering nine statues unlocks Alohomora Level 2, while bringing back an additional thirteen statues unlocks Level 3. Reaching the highest level allows you to breach every locked door and chest in Hogwarts Legacy.
Higher-level locks present the same alignment minigame as Level 1 locks, but they shield far more valuable rewards. Players interested in complete exploration must prioritize this quest early to avoid backtracking later. Once all required statues are delivered, Gladwin Moon expresses his deep gratitude and finishes your training.
Tips for Efficient Exploration and Completion
Completing this quest efficiently relies on fast-traveling between Floo Flames during the night. Plan your routes by checking settlement indicators on the map, which show how many Demiguise Statues remain in each area. This structured approach saves time and keeps your collection efforts focused.
Always check bedrooms, backrooms of taverns, and locked classrooms where caretakers rarely venture during daytime. Upgrading Alohomora fully not only completes the quest line but also opens up crucial passageways needed for endgame collectibles. Thoroughly clearing each zone ensures you complete the quest without frustration.
