  1. The bird in the hand quest needs some prior challenges done. This includes attending and completing the trial of Professor Rackham. After this is done the player gets the opportunity to attend a class of magical creatures.
  2. This class is taught by Professor Howin where you officially get to meet Poppy. Players begin to receive the owls after the main quest of this class is done. This marks half of the work already done and requirements are in place.
  3. When it comes to doing this quest which is the 8th Poppy-included challenge it becomes one of the toughest ones in the game. To have a relative idea of the quest you need to solve certain few quizzes the game has.

  1. It begins with finding your way to old ruins which are full of poachers. Fighting off the poachers is not an easy task. After dealing with them you will need to locate the Snidgets. In Hogwarts legacy, they are deemed extinct. But in fact, they do exist
  2. The next step here is to place the moonstone which you have found earlier, in the center of the ring before you turn your attention towards the two nearby pillars.
  3. The only guidelines that players will get are Poppy’s remarks while you make the play. Other than that players are likely going to struggle with figuring out the puzzle. Another prep that you need to be equipped with is the Accio spell. This spell will help players get their way around the relocation of the two pillars that were present earlier around the moonstone.
  4. Players will have to make sure that these pillars must be placed on a particular slot to open. This is where you will see a glowing light that indicates the alignment of pillars. After this, the doors will open once the player has placed the outer pillar on the southernmost slot. The leftover pillar needs to be placed to the West. This is going to be your inner pillar.
  5. This part of the area is swarmed by spiders. These spiders will notice you and without a doubt gang up on players to attack. However, with Confringo and Incendio spells it would be easy to repel the attack.
