During the adventure, Harry can use two types of spells. The first ones (Spells and charms) are used while travelling across Hogwart. Thanks to them we can catch, throw and repair item etc. The second group (Duels) consists of offensive spells, which we can use only during fights. Below you will find a description of each spell, divided into two groups. Not every spell is available from the start of the game. You will learn and upgrade many of them during the adventure.

Spells and charms

Wingardium Leviosa - a spell that allows you to pick up and move items from one place to another, pull or throw them. The spell is especially useful for knocking down crests that can be hit only using the surrounding objects like benches of stone jugs. Using this spell you can also throw dungobombs.

Reparo - allows you to repair damaged items like keys or crests. You need to use keys at some spots to get through closed gates. Crests can sometimes break, for example when they hit a wall fall from a high spot. In such case you need to approach the item and cast the spell until it's repaired.

Incendio - a spell that comes in useful while blowing up firework boxes and destroying obstacles like plants or spider webs, blocking the access to some crests.

Duels

Stupefy - a basic spell used during combat. It's quite weak at the beginning, but it becomes very powerful later on. The high speed at which you can throw it makes up for its quite low power. You can literally cover the screen with red bullets. Later on, you can charge up a very powerful shot by holding down the left mouse button.

Protego - a defensive spell that lets you reflect enemy attacks. In not only allows you to avoid enemy attacks but also reflects the weaker ones, damaging the enemies with their own spells. Of course, if they don't manage to dodge in time.

Expelliarmus - this spell is useful when we want to knock an enemy to the ground. It does cause some damage, but its biggest advantage is that it immobilises the enemy for a while, leaving him open for attacks. Not too much honourable, but effective. Take note that the spell takes more time to cast than Stupefy.

Petrificus Totalus - using this spell, you can paralyse an enemy for a short while. During the paralysis, he will slowly loose energy. However you cannot attack paralysed foes, as attack will bounce off of them. ATTENTION: this is the only spell which you WON'T gain during the story. In order to gain it, you have to go to the Paved Courtyard and talk with one of the student, who will challenge you to a duel. You will be able to use the spell after winning the battle.

Levicorpus - a useful spell which turns your enemy upside down and immobilises him for a short period of time. During the paralysis, you are free to attack the enemy. If you get hit by one, quickly move the mouse right and left and Harry will free himself from the spell.

Charging - it's not quite a spell, but an ability thanks to which you can attack more effectively with the Stupefy. In order to use it, you have to press and hold down the left mouse button. Thanks to this ability you can also hold the Protego longer and cast it in the right moment. You need to press and hold the right mouse button then.

Learning how to duel is one of the most basic things you have to do. There will be lots of fight, in the clubs and during the story as well. At the beginning you have only some basic spells at your disposal, but as the story progresses you will learn more of them. Below I'll give you some tips on how to fight properly.

- Above all, you have to constantly move. There's nothing worse than standing in one place and getting hit by the enemy attacks. That's why you should strafe during the battle and if you see that the enemy is readying a spell, wait for the proper moment and dodge or cast Protego.

- Sometimes it's good to make use of obstacles like screens or bookshelves. You won't find them around during every fight, but you can hide behind them to catch a breath and ready another spell while fighting a strong enemy. Just remember that you can destroy these items and so can your enemy.

- If you want to quickly eliminate an enemy, try to immobilise him. Expelliarmus and Levicorpus spells are the way to go. By using them, you will gain time during which you should attack your foe with the strongest spells you've got.

- At the same time, try not to fall in such a trap yourself. If you will be knocked down with the Expelliarmus spell, you are unable to do anything until Harry stands up. However if you get hit by the Levicorpus spell, begin to move your mouse left and right and you will regain control quicker.

Mixed style

1 - Duels - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Game Guide and WalkthroughYou will use this style mostly during the beginning of the game, as you won't have too much spells and when you want to play with your opponent - Duels - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Game Guide and Walkthrough

You will use this style mostly during the beginning of the game, as you won't have too much spells and when you want to play with your opponent. It's a combination of defensive style with a high amount of dodges [1], after which you can launch your own attacks [2]. While moving, it's good to use the Stupefy, which will give the enemy a hard time.

Defensive style

2 - Duels - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Game Guide and WalkthroughIn this style, you focus mainly on defence, without attacks - Duels - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Game Guide and Walkthrough

In this style, you focus mainly on defence, without attacks. It's definitely the least stunning and effective style, but you can gain one of the badges thanks to it and practise your defensive skills. In order to defend effectively, you need to have the Protego spell, thanks to which you can reflect enemy attacks [1]. It's actually the only way to deal damage to your foes. During the fight you must also remember to frequently dodge and use various covers [2].

Offensive style

3 - Duels - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Game Guide and WalkthroughThe offensive style is all about defeating your enemy as quick as possible - Duels - Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - Game Guide and Walkthrough

The offensive style is all about defeating your enemy as quick as possible. You just have to throw everything you've got at your foe. A good example of fighting with this technique is using the Levicorpus together with the Stupefy spell. First, you immobilise your enemy using the first one [1], charge up Stupefy and cast it once close to the enemy to finish him [2].

If you miss them or hit obstacles too much you will begin to lose time which can end in losing the match. Pay attention to the stars colours. If they are green [1] then everything's just find, because you have lots of time left. Once they turn yellow [2] it will mean that the time is running out.

Try to fight them off by flying into them.

Making potions is the last minigame available. The rules are simple - you have to mix, warm up and pour and throw in ingredients on the right in the right amounts, so that the potion changes colour.

A good ingredient adds a few second to the timer, but you can forget about any additional time if you make something wrong. Basically, that's all there is to know about making potions. It can be quite tricky in the beginning, but you'll get a hang of it after a while.

There are 150 crests in the game, divided into two types - mini crests and normal, big ones. The first ones can be found in shining items. You'll run into them on every step in Hogwarts and additionally the crests hidden inside them will recover after some time. In order to get them, you just have to click the left mouse button twice. Generally you can just run around a press it the whole time and you'll be receiving crests the whole time. After getting enough of them, you will receive a normal crest. Overall, there are 25 of them to collect.

The big crests are hidden in various places. Some of them are just lying around, ready to collect while the ones hanging on walls must be firstly knocked down with an item, usually found somewhere around (for example a chest or a vase). There are also some that you will have to break at first and then reassemble with the Reparo spell. These are often hidden behind bars and it's the only way to get them out of there. Some crests may be also hidden in fireworks boxes and special traps which you have to first destroy with the Incendio spell. The last possibility is a crest hidden beneath an unfolded flag, which should be treated as the traps. You have to continue until you reach the flag with the crest and knock it down to the ground. There are 125 big crests in the game, out of which 10 are located by the stone lions, described in another chapter. Beneath there is a list of all 115 big crests:

There are ten stone lions in Hogwarts. To get them, you have to search for a student near every single one of them and he will give a mission. Most of times, it will be winning a duel with a student bullying someone. Some of them will ask you to prepare them a potion which you can make in the Potions Club. After completing the task, you will be able to take the crest from near the lion. The students are placed randomly, so search for another one if there's no one around. Below there's a description of the places where you can find them.
