How Do You Unlock Confringo in Hogwarts Legacy?

Confringo is a long-range spell that boasts incredible damage. Unlike spells such as Crucio or Imperio, this spell is not an Unforgivable Curse and thus will not cause NPCs near you to have a negative reaction, even if you’ve just used it to maim or even kill another. Confringo has a longer range than Incendio and is better used for firing at enemies from a far distance than up close.

To unlock this spell, you need to complete the main quest with Sebastian Sallow, called the ‘In the Shadow of the Undercroft’ quest. After finishing this quest, Sebastian will offer to teach you the curse, and he will lead you to a room away from prying eyes to do so. While there, you will be taught and given the chance to practice it, all under his watchful eye. Speak to him once more, and you’re done! Congratulations, but be careful of your new spell’s fiery potential.
