This Hogwarts Legacy guide explains how to use potions simultaneously, a requirement for Professor Sharp's Assignment 1. This quest, received after completing the Jackdaw's Rest main story mission, tasks players with using a Focus Potion and then using Maxima and Edurus Potions concurrently. The reward for completing this assignment is the Depulso spell.
Completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1: Unlocking Depulso

Successfully completing Professor Sharp's tasks unlocks the powerful Depulso spell, which repels objects and enemies with significant force. While not directly dealing damage, it can be used to launch enemies and objects into each other for devastating results.
Using Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously

To use Maxima and Edurus Potions simultaneously:
- Open your Tool Wheel by holding down L1/LB.
- Select one potion (e.g., Maxima) and release L1/LB to equip it.
- Drink the equipped potion by pressing L1/LB again (do not hold).
- Once the effects activate, quickly repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second potion (e.g., Edurus).
The game will register both potions as active simultaneously, fulfilling the quest requirement.
Remember, the Edurus Potion (Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs) provides temporary enhanced defense, while the Maxima Potion (Spider Fangs and Leech Juice) boosts spell damage. This guide focuses on the simultaneous use; for potion crafting details and ingredient locations, please refer to our comprehensive Hogwarts Legacy potions guide.
