Are you wondering how to get the Avada Kedavra curse in Hogwarts Legacy? The good news is that you don't get the killing curse the first time, you can learn it later. You should be at least level 28 before doing any of these quests, so you can't learn it early in the game and use it to destroy bosses with one spell.

Things You Should Know

• In Hogwarts Legacy, you can learn Avada Kedavra after you're level 28.
• The first time you can learn Avada Kedavra is at the end of the "In the Shadow of the Relic" quest.
• If you said no the first time, you'll have the opportunity to learn the killing curse from Sebastian later, depending on whether you snitched on him.

1. 1
   Respond with, "Everyone should know that curse." You'll go through a cave with Sebastian Swallows on his quest called "In the Shadow of the Relic," and he'll talk about the killing curse.

   • You need to have completed the relationship quest, "In the Shadow of Hope," and the main story quest, "Lodgok's Loyalty."
2. 2
   Say, "Yes, please." Sebastian will teach you the most unforgivable of curses, Avada Kedavra.

After Saying "No" the First Time

1. 1
   Return to the Undercroft. As long as you haven't snitched on Sebastian, he will still be in his lair and willing to teach you Avada Kedavra.

   • So when you're doing the quest, "In the Shadow of Fate," make sure to choose "We must not turn Sebastian in" when you're talking to Ominis Gaunt.
2. 2
   Talk to Sebastian. You'll be able to learn all the unforgivable curses from him that you don't have, including Avada Kedavra.

   • If you said no earlier and then snitched on him, Sebastian won't be able to teach you Avada Kedavra.

1. None. Hogwarts Legacy doesn't use a morality system, so you aren't going to turn evil simply by using the unforgivable curse. Your relationships and story will remain unaffected by your use of Avada Kedavra.

   • Certain companions, however, don't like when you use the curse.
