You may not be able to imagine how inconvenient life was before Floo Powder was invented, but you can definitely imagine how convenient picking locks is. If you want to be able to pick every single lock in Hogwarts Legacy, you’ll want to reach the highest rank possible for the lock-picking spell.
That involves a rather tedious quest, as you’ll need to track down a number of Demiguise statues. Fortunately, we’ve got the location of every single one right here for you.
Demiguise Locations: How to start finding them
You won’t be able to collect any Demiguises before a certain point in the main path of the game. Fortunately, this is relatively early on and impossible to miss. The quest is called “The Caretaker’s Lunar Lament” and involves Gladwin Moon, the groundskeeper at Hogwarts, hiring you to get rid of all the Demiguise statues around. Gladwin Moon is terrified of the creatures, so some practical jokers decided it would be great fun to put them all around Hogwarts and the surrounding inhabited areas.
Each Demiguise statue holds a moon — the humor of these jokesters knows no bounds — and it’s these moons that you’ll be handing in to Mr. Moon. He’ll be rewarding you for your time, granting you increased levels of Alohomora, the unlocking spell.
With level one Alohamora, you can unlock level I locks. Level 2 Alohomora unlocks level II locks, and naturally, level three Alohomora unlocks level III locks. Lockpicking may not be as exciting as the Unforgivable Curses, but it’s certainly a practical addition to your arsenal of spells.
There are 30 Demiguises in the game, and I’ve divided their locations between Hogwarts itself, the village of Hogsmeade, and then the surrounding wizarding hamlets that dot the Scottish countryside.
It’s important to note that you can’t collect Demiguise Moons during the day, so if you find one at the wrong hour, you’ll need to use the map to wait until nighttime.
