Opening the Faculty Tower Door in Hogwarts Legacy is fairly straightforward once you understand how it works. Here are all of the steps required to go about getting the door open.

  • Firstly, make your way to the South Wing of the castle, after you have finished Gladwin’s first quest. If you try beforehand, you will not be able to get into this restricted area through the Floo Network.
  • Each animal symbol in the door is related to a number from anywhere between zero to nine.
  • For the top equation of the Faculty Tower Puzzle, you will want to equal 13.
  • Do this by using Spider (worth 8 points) + 5 + Sloth (which is worth zero points). This will complete the first equation.
  • The second problem requires us to equal 14 points.
  • Get this number by first using the Elephant (which gives 2 points) + 3 + Killer Bacteria (9 points). This gets you to 14.

After you solve this, you will receive an item and a gear piece. Try to complete all of the Hogwarts Door Puzzles to receive even more rewards!
