The question of how many Demiguise statues exist in Hogwarts Legacy often puzzles players, and for good reason. The game doesn’t make it entirely straightforward. So, to definitively answer that question:
There are a total of 33 Demiguise Statues scattered throughout the game world in Hogwarts Legacy.
These statues, each holding a distinctive Demiguise Moon, are a crucial collectible for progressing a particular quest and unlocking the ability to break open higher-level locks. However, they’re not just lying around in plain sight; you’ll need to put in some effort to find them all. Furthermore, not all 33 are needed to complete the questline, but collecting them all is essential for those seeking 100% completion and a certain trophy/achievement.
Demiguise Statues: A Breakdown
The initial three Demiguise Moons are collected during The Caretaker’s Lunar Lament quest, giving you an early introduction to this mechanic. These first three are easily collected through the course of the quest, one even being part of a cutscene. After this, you’ll be tasked with finding the rest as you explore the open world, and this is where the real hunt begins.
The remaining 30 statues are dispersed throughout the game’s key locations:
- Hogwarts Castle: 10 Demiguise Statues are hidden within the castle’s many nooks and crannies.
- Hogsmeade: 9 Demiguise Statues can be discovered throughout the village.
- Hamlets: There is 1 Demiguise Statue in each of the 11 hamlets located around the game’s open world.
Remember, these statues only become visible, and thus collectible, at nighttime. Also, you need to unlock the Alohomora spell from Gladwin Moon in order for them to start appearing.
Unlocking Alohomora Levels
Collecting the Demiguise Moons is not just about getting a collectible, it’s also crucial for progressing your ability to unlock doors. Specifically, turning in a specific number of Demiguise Moons to Gladwin Moon will upgrade your Alohomora spell, allowing you to open higher-level locks.
Here’s how it works:
- Alohomora Level 1: This is the first version of the spell, acquired during the quest where you learn about Demiguise Moons. This level allows you to open Level I locks, and this unlocks the ability for Demiguise statues to begin to appear in the world.
- Alohomora Level 2: This upgrade is unlocked after handing in 9 Demiguise Moons to Gladwin Moon. Level 2 Alohomora is needed to open Level II locks.
- Alohomora Level 3: Collect another 13 Demiguise Moons, which total 22, and turn them into Gladwin Moon to get the final upgrade, which lets you open any lock you encounter.
The remaining Demiguise Moons, although they do not increase the Alohomora level, are required if you want to get the Demiguise Dread achievement or trophy.
