Where to Learn Potions or Get Potions in Hogwarts Legacy

Gathering Ingredients for Potions in Hogwarts Legacy

Ingredients can be gathered or foraged throughout the different Locations on the Map. Other Ingredients are obtained as enemy drops. Players can also easily obtain Ingredients for a price by purchasing them from various Merchants. J. Pippin's Potions and The Magic Neep in Hogsmeade are known to stock a few basic Ingredients. Players who have attended Herbology Class and learned how to plant seeds can also plant and grow Ingredients at a Potting Table.

Brewing Potions in Hogwarts Legacy

Players will first learn how to brew Potions in Potions Class with Professor Sharp. To brew a Potion, players will need to have learned to make the desired potion from a recipe and have the required Ingredients ready. Players must also have access to a Potions Station. There will be a few available Potions stations in the Potions Classroom. Progress through the main quests to gain access to the Room of Requirement where you can eventually use the Conjuring Spell to conjure your own Potions station with the required Spellcraft. Once you have conjured a Potions Station you can return to Room of Requirement to brew a Potion anytime. 

Potion Stations come in different sizes and designs. Larger Potion Stations will allow you to brew multiple Potions at a time. Potions Station spellcrafts can be obtained form the Tomes and Scrolls shop in Hogsmeade.

J. Pippin's Potions Hogwarts Legacy

Wizards can buy Potions and Ingredients in several places, of course, the rarer the item, the most expensive it will be. But not all Potions or ingredients will be available at a store, Wizards may have to visit other store, or consider craft the desired Potions themselves. Also some rare ingredients may not be found in stores either, so Wizards may have to gather them from the game world, or maybe obtain them from a creature drop or as reward for completing a quest.

The most notable of the Potion Merchants is Parry Pippin who Runs J. Pippin's Potions. 

J Pippin's Potions, established in 1753, is the apothecary in Hogsmeade where proprietor Parry Pippin sells a wide variety of potions and their ingredients. His stock changes up and introduces new potions, so his inventory may vary after each visit.

Ingredients & Herbology

It is wise to be always on the lookout for new ingredients, not at all Potions can be found at the store and the only way to obtain them will be to craft them. Most common ingredients are usually sold by Potions sellers, but again, rare items or high value ones may only be obtainable by finding them in the wild.

Most ingredients are taken from plants of the wild. Plants are studied in the Harry Potter world in Herbology, and it is believed that some Herbology elements will be added to Hogwarts Legacy. Not all of the ingredients are related to plants, some reagents are related to creatures.

Potions Class in Hogwarts Legacy

Wizards are able to brew their own Potions at a brewing station, but it's required for Wizards to know the recipes of each potion to be able to brew them after attending Potions Class which will be an available Main Quests early in the game. Players can usually attend the lessons after completing a Herbology Class. Tis will require you to at least be at a level 4. Attending Potions Class will walk you through how to collecting a some basic Ingredients and how to brew your first potion. Completing the class will grant you access to the Potions Station.
