How do I get the Phoenix in Hogwarts Legacy?

In order to capture the Phoenix in Hogwarts Legacy, you must complete Deek’s quest line in the Room of Requirement. During his last quest, “Phoenix Rising,” you’ll receive a Phoenix and bring them back to your Vivariums. This is the only Phoenix you’ll be able to find as there are no Phoenix dens in the Highlands.

How can I summon more beasts in my Vivariums?

To summon more magical beasts, you’ll need to complete Deek’s quest line in the Room of Requirement. For each side quest you complete, you’ll unlock another Vivarium for your beasts to run around in. Each Vivarium can only have up to four species and 16 beasts in each of them, but that will be more than enough for each species.

Here’s a list of all of Deek’s quests that you have to complete:

When do I unlock Brood and Peck in Hogwarts Legacy?

How do I breed beasts in Hogwarts Legacy?

First, you’ll need to complete the side quest “Foal of the Dead” which is given to you by Deek in the Room of Requirement. Next, you’ll need a breeding pen which can be bought from Tomes and Scrolls in Hogsmeade for 1,000 gold galleons. Head back to your Vivariums, and place the breeding pen by using the Conjuration spell. Interact with the pen to choose which animals you’d like to breed, and wait 30 minutes for your egg to hatch.

You can also choose which pair you’d like to breed if you have multiples of each gender. After you interact with the breeding pen, hover over the species you’d like to breed and press the button labeled as “Choose breeding pair.” Simply choose which magical beasts you’d like to breed and wait the 30 minutes for your new offspring! However, offsprings do not grow up in Hogwarts Legacy, so they’ll stay young forever.

How to get shiny beasts in Hogwarts Legacy?

Similar to Pokémon, you can find shiny magical beasts in Hogwarts Legacy. When hunting for shinies, look out for the star next to the beasts’ name at the top of the screen. The magical beasts will also differentiate in color, but it can be difficult to tell when many of them already do come in different colors. Follow our step-by-step walkthrough on how to easily get shiny magical beasts below.

If you have two shiny beasts of the opposite gender, you can also breed a shiny offspring.

If you’re looking for another challenge after taming all of the beasts in Hogwarts Legacy, try collecting all of the brooms, Demiguise statues and Daedalian Keys.
