How to Solve the Musical Map Puzzle in Hogwarts Legacy

Can you guess what symphony you need to play?

In Hogwarts Legacy, players can obtain many cosmetic items through the completion of Side Quests and obtaining the secret Collectible items throughout their exploration of the Regions. Whilst these do nothing but act for aesthetic purposes, players can nab themselves some good-looking gear for the journey ahead. Alternatively, it is a good way to achieve 100% completion in the game whilst also gaining rewards that you can wear to make you a standout wizard. This is our guide on how to complete the Side Quest ‘Solved by the Bell’ in Hogwarts Legacy. By solving the Musical Map Puzzle, players will obtain treasure as a reward, so get hunting wizards.

How to Complete the ‘Solved by the Bell’ Puzzle

With the Musical Map in hand, players need to go to Clagmar Castle inside the Hogwarts Region of Clagmar Coast. Inside the Castle you will find a tower of nine Bells. You must play a symphony using the Bells but it can only be played in a particular order. For the sake of this guide we will number these Bells from top to bottom, left to right. With number one and two being the top left, two being top right and so on. The order then in which you should hit the Bells are: 8, 5, 3, 4, 5, 1, 2, 4.

By playing this melody you will hear the iconic symphony of the Hedwig’s Theme Song. When the symphony ends, a Treasure Chest will fall beside you. Inside you will obtain the Treasure-Seeker’s Longcoat. In doing so, the Side Quest will end as you have found the Treasure through the use of the Musical Map.

If you have any problems with inputting the melody or upon successfully entering the sequence above, the melody of the Theme Song does not play in full, all you have to do is save and reload the game. You may experience your execution of Spells result in the Bells being hit twice instead of a single time. Inputting two of the same chord in the melody instead of just once. It may be best to save before inputting the sequence, that way any problems can be easily resolved by a simple reload. Alternatively, you can leave the area before finishing the sequence by fast-travelling to another Floo Flame and then returning to the Clagmar Castle Floo Flame. You will be able to start again with the sequence.


That is our quick guide on how to complete the Musical Map Puzzle for the Side Quest ‘Solved by the Bell’ in Hogwarts Legacy.
