Hogwarts Legacy is packed with mysterious side quests and secret treasure maps that lead players into dangerous subterranean dungeons. One of the most intriguing side quests in the game is the Cursed Tomb Treasure, which tests both your exploration skills and your spellcasting precision. Finding the initial map and solving the final floor puzzle requires careful navigation through southern regions of the world map.
Finding the Cursed Tomb Treasure Map Location
To begin this quest, players must head toward Manor Glen, located in the southern region of the world map. Beneath the ruined manor lies a hidden cellar that leads into a dangerous underground dungeon filled with hostile enemies.
Defeating the powerful foes inside allows you to access a locked chest containing the treasure map. Examining the map reveals a drawing depicting the Tomb of Treachery and a specific geometric pattern required to unlock the final reward.
Navigating the Tomb of Treachery
Once you have secured the treasure map, travel to the Tomb of Treachery located in the Poidsear Coast area. The entrance is tucked behind a waterfall, requiring players to fly or swim past the rushing water to enter the dark cavern.
As you progress through the tomb, you will encounter groups of Inferi that must be burned with fire spells before taking damage. Clearing these chamber encounters opens up the path leading deeper into the tomb where the final puzzle room awaits.
Solving the Butterfly Door and Floor Tile Puzzle
Before reaching the floor puzzle, players must unlock a sealed doorway using three missing moth creatures found in nearby side chambers. Using the Lumos spell allows you to guide each moth back to the door frame to open the main chamber.
Inside the final room, a set of floor tiles matches the drawing shown on your map. Casting the Flipendo spell on the three specific corner tiles rotates them, completing the symbol and raising the hidden treasure chest from the ground.
Rewards for Completing the Cursed Tomb Quest
Solving the floor tile puzzle rewards players with a chest containing valuable gear and appearance options for customization. You will also earn gear experience points that help level up your character attributes for future combat encounters.
Completing this quest contributes to your overall exploration challenges across the highlands. Taking time to solve these hidden side quests provides valuable resources while expanding your knowledge of the game world.
