While exploring the map of Hogwarts Legacy, players will come across Treasure Vaults. Exploring the Treasure Vaults will reward players with Gear, so it's best to make sure there are empty slots in the inventory before embarking on this adventure. However, players who have already completed the Merlin Trials in Hogwarts Legacy won't have to worry about this, as they will have 40 slots in their inventory.
The Manor Cape region is especially challenging and is best explored by players at level 25 or higher, as it contains complex puzzles and tough enemies.
Manor Cape Treasure Vaults And How To Open Them In Hogwarts Legacy
There are a total of six Treasure Vaults in Hogwarts Legacy. While solving a puzzle, players will encounter some enchanted cubes, each of which has a symbol indicating which spell to use.
Treasure Vault #1
To find the first Manor Cape Treasure Vault, head southeast of Bainburgh Floo Flame. From the hill above it, locate the enchanted cube and guide it to its platform by casting the Wingardium Leviosa spell. Activate it by using Levioso on the cube to open the Treasure Vault door.
Once inside, ignite the enhanced cube with a fire spell and use Wingardium Leviosa to lift it to its platform on the ceiling, which is next to the locked door. Behind this door, lies a chest containing a Gear in Hogwarts Legacy.
Treasure Vault #2
The second Treasure Vault in Manor Cape can be found southwest of Cragcroft Shore Hamlet. To unlock it, locate the enchanted cube situated to the east near a Cottongrass Dugbog. Cast Wingardium Leviosa to levitate the cube back to its platform, then use Levioso to open the vault.
Inside the vault, players will find a normal cube. Using Wingardium Leviosa on the cube will cause the ground level to rise, allowing players to climb and claim the treasure.
Treasure Vault #3
The third Treasure Vault is located east of the West Manor Cape Floo Flame, right next to a Merlin Trial in Hogwarts Legacy. However, the vault is guarded by Poacher Trackers, so players need to face them before opening the vault.
Afterward, opening the door requires activating two mechanisms by casting Depulso four times on each.
The cave's interior contains a puzzle that demands the use of Wingardium Leviosa to levitate the cube and place it in its proper position with the arrow symbol pointing down. Once the puzzle has been solved, the treasure’s door will be opened, and players can claim their reward.
Treasure Vault #4
The fourth Treasure Vault in Hogwarts Legacy is next to a landing platform north of the West Manor Cape waypoint. Upon arrival, use Accio to pull the lever next to the vault's door and enter the cave. Inside, players need to defeat an Inferius before proceeding.
The cave's walls will have 12 levers connected to three locked doors, but only one of them hides a Gear chest. Six random levers are needed to open the treasure cell. As a result, players must use Revelio to highlight the correct levers and pull them by casting Accio.
Treasure Vault #5
To locate the fifth Treasure Vault, teleport to the West Manor Cape Floo Flame and head south. The vault can be found directly under a small bridge without the need to solve a puzzle.
Once inside, players should use any fire spell in Hogwarts Legacy to burn away the spider's webs and defeat the spiders guarding the chest. Next, burn the webs surrounding the chest to get a Gear.
Treasure Vault #6
The sixth Treasure Vault can be found on the shore, west of Henrietta's Hideaway. However, the entrance to the vault is blocked, so players should head west to the bridge next to it to dive into the vortex and enter the vault.
Once inside, cast Depulso multiple times on the mechanism to move the rocks, which will create a climbing platform to reach the chest containing a Gear in Hogwarts Legacy.
