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, then simultaneously using Maxima and Edurus Potions. 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:

Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 unlocks the Depulso spell. This spell forcefully repels objects and enemies, causing indirect damage by launching them into each other. It's also useful for manipulating objects.

Using Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

To use Maxima and Edurus Potions simultaneously:

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

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