Unlocking Talents in Hogwarts Legacy
Talents won't be available as soon as players start the game, they will be locked up to a certain point in Hogwarts Legacy story. Players will have to progress through the story to unlock certain talents. Once Talents become available, players must spend their earned talent points in order to unlock the desired talent. These Talents will have a required level, but are not unlocked in a skill tree-type system which means, you will not need to unlock them in order or there are no Talent prerequisites required to unlock them. However, some talents rely on specific Items or Spells for them to be effective so make sure you have learned the spell beforehand or have access to the related item so that you can utilize the Talent before acquiring it.
Talent Requirements Hogwarts Legacy
All Talents in Hogwarts Legacy have one of the three-level requirements available:
- Level 5: Unlocks the first tier of upgrades.
- Level 16: Unlocks the second tier of upgrades.
- Level 22: Unlocks the third tier of upgrades.
This means that certain Talents will be locked out until you reach the required level. Until then, they will be shown with this icon 
, indicating that they are currently locked.
Besides level, some Talents possess other requirements, such as the knowledge of a certain Spell or having acquired a specific Potion or Plant. Even if players have the required level to earn that talent, they won't be able to do so until they meet the second requirement.
Can I Max out all talents in Hogwarts Legacy?
It is currently unknown if players will be able to max out their characters in Hogwarts Legacy by earning all 48 Talents available. Wizards and Witches maximum level is 40, assuming they earn a Talent Point each time they level up, it would be impossible to max out all talents. But it is still possible to be able to earn Talent Points as a reward for doing certain Quests or completing certain Collections.

AnonymousPretty dumb how late these are unlocked. Im trying to do a vegetable only challenge run, and dont have enough DPS to beat Jackdaw's mission, since the loom is also still locked at this point, and the amount of veggies is limited since you also cant grow your own yet.

Having completed the game 100% there is no way to obtain 48 Talent points in order to max out your talents and quite frankly doing so would make your character OP as hell. 40 is the maximum you can get and will need to assigned in accordance with your build.
