How to Defeat Inferius in Hogwarts Legacy

Hogwarts Legacy – How to Defeat an Inferius

What’s one thing that the undead hate in almost every tale? The answer is fire and that’s what we need to use to take down these tough Inferius undead. When you encounter one, it will be impervious to almost any damage you deal. Even if you throw basic casts or a hard-hitting stupefy, no damage will be done.

You need to kick off the fight with some kind of fire. The easiest way to do that is by using Confringo at range, and with the upgrade, fire bolts will follow that hit multiple Inferi in Hogwarts Legacy. Utilizing Accio and pulling them toward you to use Incedio is another fantastic method. Later in the game, you’ll earn Bombardo, which is great to start the fight or burn them to a crisp.
