Hogwarts Legacy: How to unlock, use and upgrade your broom
Players can unlock the broom with a few simple steps and speed up their travel across the open world. Here’s everything that you need to know about how to get the broom and use it.
Hogwarts Legacy players will undoubtedly require a broom to speed through the game's vast open world. Travelling by foot may make things slow and complicated for gamers in the massive open world of this game. Players can also upgrade their brooms, which speeds up their travel in the game. Since the broom is a common mode of transportation in the Harry Potter franchise, it is also required in the Hogwarts Legacy game.
How to get a broom in Hogwarts Legacy
To acquire the ability to fly on a broom in Hogwarts Legacy, players must travel a little further through the main story. At some point, the players will have finished the 'Jackdaw's Rest,' which leads to the 'Map Chamber' beneath Hogwarts.
After completing the quest, players will be instructed to attend the first 'Flying Class' beside the main lawn in the game. Flying Class is a broom flying tutorial in which players must complete two tasks assigned by 'Madam Kagawa'. After that, the players will have to go on a lap around the castle with ‘Everett Clopton’.
Since the players do not get to keep the brooms after the Flying Class, they can travel to Hogsmeade and purchase their brooms from Spintwitch’s Sporting Needs Store. The players must speak with Mr Weekes and look through the available brooms, each of which costs 600 Gold.
If you don't have enough Gold, you can sell some unwanted items or head to Gladrags Wizardwear and open the 'Eye Chest' using the 'Disillusionment Charm' to obtain 500 Gold.
Players need to keep in mind that broom flying inside Hogwarts Castle and in Hogsmeade is restricted.
How to use a broom in Hogwarts Legacy
Players can equip the broom by holding LB (Xbox), L1 (PS), and Tab (PC) and pressing B/O/3 for each. For a temporary speed boost, players can press LT (Xbox), L2 (PS), and Left Mouse Click (PC).
How to upgrade a broom in Hogwarts Legacy
Players can upgrade their broom three times in the game. Once you buy your first broom, Mr Weekes will advise you to meet Imelda Reyes.
Upon completing the time trials given by Imelda Reyes, you can upgrade the brooms.
