Hogwarts Legacy hosts of a slew of magical spells for players to use in combat, open-world exploration, and even puzzle-solving. Surprisingly, it features the most infamous curse, Avada Kedavra, as well. This Unforgivable causes instant death to enemies and it is thus natural for Hogwarts to restrict its use.

The curse’s inclusion in the game has led fans to wonder whether it can be cast on non-enemy characters or not. Fortunately (or unfortunately), one cannot cast the Killing Curse on students and professors in Hogwarts Legacy. However, casting it in the respective classrooms invokes certain reactions from the teachers.

Here are the responses that the professors give to players casting the said curse:

• Professor Sharp: I suggest you give your wand a rest. And don’t let me find you doing that again.

• Professor Hecat: You’re lucky I am no longer an Unspeakable.
• Madam Kogawa: Where in the name of Merlin did you learn magic like that?

Professors and their role in Hogwarts Legacy

All the professors assist players in learning spells. They have a set of assignments that one can pursue to acquire a variety of magic in the game. Gamers can peruse this extensive guide to complete all the assignments and acquire the rewards they entail.

After learning a spell, the professors allow players to test it in their classrooms. One can practice to their heart’s content on the dummies present in these rooms. The teachers will encourage them in these endeavors until they cast the Killing Curse.

Those interested can unlock Avada Kedavra by completing Sebastian Sallow’s quest, In The Shadow of Relic. To do so, they must first reach level 28 and complete his previous mission, In The Shadow of Hope.

Due to the absence of a morality system, players can use the Killing Curse on enemies without any consequences. It is an excellent spell to get out of sticky situations, especially when there are stronger bosses in battle. The only downside is its long cooldown time, which pushes them to use it sparingly.
