Hogwarts Legacy: Best spells to use
Many of the spells can be used on their own but they are even better when used as part of a combo.
Here are the spells we think are the strongest in combat.
- Avada Kedavra *dark arts
- Confringo
- Imperio * dark arts
- Crucio *dark arts
- Depulso
- Levioso
- Flipendo
- Diffindo
- Accio
- Descendo
Talents will make these even stronger. If you don’t want to be a dark wizard you can always forgo the unforgivable curses.
If you don’t want to dabble in the dark arts, then you will want to focus on aerial attacks.
Your basic case is a four-hit combo, and the final hit launches the enemy.
Here is an example of a strong combo:
- Levioso
- 3x basic cast
- Accio
- 3x basic cast
- Flipendo
- 3x basic cast
- Descendo

The more you practice these basic combos the better you will get at combining them together.
