Need help finding Rococo the Niffler? Follow our step-by-step guide to navigate the ruins, solve the puzzles, and return the mischievous creature to Agness in Hogwarts Legacy.
Alright, so you're looking to help out Agness and find her little Niffler, Rococo? This quest kicks off in Bainburgh. Head over there and have a chat with Agness; she's the merchant you're looking for. She's got a couple of things for you, and this is one of them. Quick tip: while you're in the area, swing by Poidsear Castle. There's a marked map there that'll actually help you out with both this quest and the 'Hippogriff marks the spot' quest, since they overlap a bit. Saves you some backtracking later!
- 1First things first, you'll need to make your way down to Marunweem Lake. Head to the very southern tip of it. You'll spot some old church-like ruins there, and yep, a bunch of Ashwinders are hanging around. You can totally take them on if you want the practice, or just make a dash for the stairs leading down into the ruins. Your call!
- 2Once you're inside the ruins, get ready for a cube puzzle, just like the ones you find in Treasure Vaults. Look around for a statue with a torch on it. Light that torch – it'll reveal a hidden cube. Now, you've got two cubes to deal with. Grab the one you just found and the other one that's already there. You'll need to use Accio to move both cubes over to their matching pedestals. For the cube on the left, you'll need to cast a fire spell (like Confringo), and for the cube on the right, Glacius will do the trick.
- 3Once those cubes are in place, the wall directly in front of you will slide open. Head on through, and you'll find yourself in a room with a big Hippogriff statue. Watch out, there are several Ashwinders in here, and some of them will try to attack you from above. Clear them out! After the fight, head up the stairs. You'll need to use Revelio to find an enchanted floor. Cast Arresto Momentum on it to slow it down so you can walk across safely.
- 4The next room also has some Ashwinders waiting for you. Deal with them, then climb up the steps. Look across the room – you'll see another cube. Use Accio to pull it down towards you. Now, here's a bit of a tricky part: jump down using the section of stairs that's broken. Look underneath those stairs, and use Revelio again. You'll see a trick wall appear. Just walk straight towards it, and it'll open up.
- 5Inside this hidden area, use Accio to grab the second cube. Now, take this cube with you, head back up the stairs, and go around the hall. You'll end up back in the room with the pedestals. Place both cubes on their matching spots. This time, you'll use Levioso on the left cube and a fire spell, like Confringo, on the right cube.
- 6With the final puzzle solved, the last room will open up. Go inside, and there he is – Rococo, the Niffler! All you need to do now is use your Nab-sack to collect him. Once you've got him secured, head back to Agness in Bainburgh.
- 7When you get back to Agness, you'll have a choice to make about what to do with Rococo: Give Him Back, Give Him Back For a Fee, or Keep Rococo. Honestly, it doesn't really change much in the grand scheme of things. You can get a little extra coin or keep the mischievous Niffler for yourself. Pick whichever feels right!
- Remember to grab that marked map from Poidsear Castle before heading to Marunweem Lake – it'll save you some trouble later!
- Don't forget to use Revelio to find hidden elements like the enchanted floor and trick walls.
- Pay attention to the cube puzzle requirements: different spells are needed for each pedestal.
