After completing the Jackdaw's Rest main quest in Hogwarts Legacy, you'll receive Professor Sharp's Assignment 1. Professor Sharp requires you to acquire and use a Focus Potion, then obtain and simultaneously use Maxima and Edurus Potions. The game doesn't clearly explain simultaneous potion use, so this guide will show you how. For potion ingredient locations and crafting details, refer to our dedicated Hogwarts Legacy guide.

What do You Get for Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 in Hogwarts Legacy?

Completing Professor Sharp's assignment unlocks the Depulso spell. The in-game description states: "Repels many objects and enemies with considerable force. While dealing no direct damage, it can launch enemies and objects into each other for devastating results. Also useful for manipulating objects."

How to Use Maxima and Erudus Potions Simultaneously in Hogwarts Legacy

To use Maxima and Edurus Potions simultaneously:

1. Hold down L1/LB to open the Tool Wheel.
2. Hover over a potion and release L1 to equip it.
3. Press L1 (don't hold) to drink the equipped potion.
4. Once the first potion's effects begin, quickly repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second potion.
5. The game will register both potions as active simultaneously, completing Professor Sharp's request.

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