Before beginning the Cursed Tomb Treasure quest in Hogwarts Legacy, it is important to ensure that you have the necessary tools to succeed. One of the key components to progressing through the quest is having your Alohamora spell at level three.

To get started with the quest, travel southwest along the shoreline until you reach the deserted manor of Manor Glen. Once inside, make your way to the basement, where you will come across a door secured with a lock. Cast the Alohamora spell, which will unlock the door, granting you access to the underground tunnels beneath the manor.

Beware, as you will encounter some hostile enemies, including Infamous Foes. They are hard to defeat and will demand the best out of your defensive tactics. Proceed to the end of the basement, where you will find a chest in the bottom right corner of the final room; unlock it to reveal a treasure map.

The map's instructions are cryptic, making it difficult to determine the location; however, the map points towards the Tomb of Treachery, on the Poidsear Coast. The marked spot on the map has a waterfall, and behind it, there is a passage that will take you to your next stop.

Upon entering, continue forward until you reach a tomb filled with bones. Turn left, and you will find a web-covered opening. Burn it down with the Incendio spell and continue straight ahead.

You will then come across a puzzle gate guarded by some enemies. Eliminate them and turn right to reach a room with two moths. Utilize the Lumos spell to capture the moths and bring them to the puzzle gate.

Finally, go to the room on the left, clearing any webs with the Incendio spell as you progress. In the end, you will come across a tall climb. Turn left and locate a box. Cast the Wingardium Leviosa spell to move the box into the correct position, making it easier for you to climb up. At the top, there will be another moth. Use the Lumos spell to capture it and bring it to the door.

Upon entering the door, you will reach the final chamber containing the Cursed Tomb Treasure; however, be prepared, as some foes will appear. Eliminate them and then employ the Flipendo spell to unravel the puzzle. Arrange the floor according to the cryptic map discovered in the old manor.

Once you have successfully flipped and positioned the rocks, the treasure will be revealed and ready to be claimed. As a reward, you will receive the Treasure Seeker's Attire.
