Unlocking Your Broom: A Step-by-Step Guide

Completing Jackdaw’s Rest

Your journey towards broom flight begins with the “Jackdaw’s Rest” quest. This mission sees you delve into the mysteries surrounding a hidden secret beneath Hogwarts, bringing you closer to the heart of the game’s main narrative. Upon successfully finishing this main mission, you unlock a slew of new possibilities, including the ability to attend Flying Class.

Attending Flying Class

Immediately after finishing Jackdaw’s Rest, you’ll be prompted to start the Flying Class main quest. Head over to the Flying Class Lawn Floo Flame located outside the Bell Tower Wing. Look for the glowing circle on the ground; interacting with it will officially begin your Flying Class experience. Here, you’ll meet Madam Kogawa, your Flying Professor, who will guide you through the initial steps of summoning your broom.

First Flight and Broom Acquisition

The flying class isn’t just a cutscene; it’s an interactive tutorial where you will learn the basics of controlling your broom through on-screen prompts.

This is where you’ll choose your first broom.

Customizing Your Broom

Once you have purchased your broom you can customize its appearance, and you can do this from the gear menu. Head to the gear section where you change your clothes, and on the right side, you’ll see the brooms option. From here, you can change the cosmetic look of your broom without altering its performance.
