The Hippogriff Marks the Spot is a side quest in Hogwarts Legacy.
Objectives[]
"While exploring Poidsear Castle in the Southern Coast. I noticed an important-looking rolled parchment resting on a table within the castle grounds."
- Retrieve the rolled parchment from the table in Poidsear Castle
"Henrietta's Map portrays castle ruins on a peninsula. A hippogriff surrounded by flames is also etched onto it."
- Use Henrietta's Map to find the treasure
Conclusion[]
"The infamous Henrietta's Hideaway was home to the treasure alluded to in the map. I needed to light and extinguish the correct combination of flames surrounding a hippogriff statue to obtain the treasure. Something tells me this isn't the only think hidden in these old ruins."
Notes[]
- This quest is marked with a side quest icon and is categorised as such in the quest log, but its card image uses the icon and background colour associated with main quests.
- Henrietta's Map points to ruins on the southeast tip of the Manor Cape peninsula, and the drawing shows a cave below the ruins.
- The cave entrance is on the southeast side of the ruins.
- The cave's first room has a puzzle with two metal plates bearing Incendio and Glacius symbols, but only one Glacius cube. The Indencio cube can be found by lighting a brazier on the left side of the room. Placing both cubes on the matching plates and hitting them with the correct spells reveals a door to the main room.
- Lighting the brazier on the right side of the first room reveals a treasure chest.
- The main chamber contains the hippogriff statue shown on the map. The braziers around it must be lit or extinguished to match the pattern shown on the map. This reveals a chest containing the Treasure-Seeker's Gloves.
- Another side quest, Solved by the Bell, can be triggered by finding the Musical Map in Henrietta's Hideaway.
