One of the most frustrating challenges you may encounter is the Troll at Hogsmeade. This massive creature is a formidable opponent, but with the right strategy and skills, you can defeat it and emerge victorious. In this article, we’ll guide you through the process of defeating the Troll at Hogsmeade in the upcoming game, Hogwarts Legacy. So grab your wand and get ready to learn how to take down this fearsome foe!
When will you face the Troll?
As soon as you finish your shopping and rendezvous with your companion, an enormous “Armoured Troll” will unexpectedly charge into “Hogsmeade”. Following a brief cutscene, you’ll be introduced to the dodge attack just as the troll comes hurtling towards you! This particular move will prove to be invaluable throughout the entire boss fight, so it’s essential that you memorize the controls.
How to Defeat the Troll at Hogsmeade
The red sigil appearing indicates that you must dodge the incoming attack. You won’t be able to block, parry, or counter it. Instead, you must get out of the way, especially when the troll charges at you. Once you avoid the attack, cast spells to damage the troll. Dodging will be more effective than blocking or parrying in this fight. Nonetheless, you might occasionally see a golden sigil above your head, indicating a blockable attack. At this moment, cast Protego to shield yourself and counterattack after the troll’s attack bounces off your shield. To accumulate your ancient magic gauge, you must create combos by chaining your attacks together while avoiding the troll’s attacks. Once the gauge is full, you can use your ancient magic against the troll, which entails hurling barrels at the beast. When you’re close to defeating the troll, you’ll be asked to use an ancient magic finishing move to finish it off. Well done! You’ve successfully defeated the first boss in Hogwarts Legacy!
