How to Complete Madam Kogawa’s Assignment 1 – Hogwarts Legacy Walkthrough

For a denizen of the Wizarding World, a Broom is as vital a means of transportation as a car is for us Muggles. This is why Broom-usage is a steadfast subject at Hogwarts, and why you’d do well to take any opportunity you can to master it. Here’s how to complete Madam Kogawa’s Assignment 1 in Hogwarts Legacy.

How to Complete Madam Kogawa’s Assignment 1 – Hogwarts Legacy Walkthrough

Madam Kogawa is one of your many teachers at Hogwarts in Hogwarts Legacy, specifically that of the Flying class. The school isn’t allowing anyone to play Quidditch right now, unfortunately, but she’s still encouraging everyone to learn proper Broom-handling techniques, you included. Her first assignment will get you properly acquainted with Broom control, and there’s a pretty nifty reward in it for you as well.

For Madam Kogawa’s first assignment, you’ll need to travel to a couple of nearby locations on your Broom and pop some balloons she’s deployed. You can use your wand to pop them if you like, though just flying right into them also works fine. We’re not actually playing Quidditch here, so we don’t need to get too fancy about it.

Madam Kogawa’s Balloon Locations

The first batch of balloons can be found floating above Hogsmeade Station. They’re bright blue with a yellow star painted on them, so as long as you’re flying on your broom, you won’t miss them. There’s one right above the station proper, one slightly to the east, one above the rails to the south, one between the trees to the north, and one above a small incline to the west.

Next, head to the Quidditch Pitch on Hogwarts grounds. It’s the big ovoid stadium directly west of Hogwarts proper. You’ll find one ballon smack in the middle of the stadium, one between the northeastern stands, one between the southwestern stands, another one right beneath the southwestern stands, and one behind the western stands.

Once you’ve popped all ten balloons, return to Madam Kogawa, and she’ll reward you with the motion for the Glacius spell. What does freezing stuff have to do with flying? You ever tried standing in a wind tunnel in December? That’s what.
