Choose Slytherin As Your House
At the beginning of the game, verify you chooseSlytherin as your Hogwarts Legacy House, doing so will send you down the path of a house-specific quest line to discover the Map Chamber. You can do this via the Wizarding World Sorting Quiz, or simply choose Slytherin at the end of the sorting Hat Ceremony at the start of your journey in Hogwarts Legacy.
The Map Chamber in Hogwarts Legacy is a room beneath Hogwarts that holds the giant portraits of thekeepers of ancient magic.
Slytherin Map Chamber Quest Line
Before you can obtain access to the Map Chamber as a Slytherin, you’ll have to complete a series of House specific tasks, as well as find the missing pages to the ancient magic book you found in the library with Sebastian Sallow. These tasks will take you just north ofHogsmede and well within the Forbidden Forest.
Hecat’s Assignment 2
The first task you must complete isProfessor Hecat’s Assignment 2, which allows you to learn the spell disarming spellExpelliarmusand unlocks theRoom of Requirement. This quest simply requires you to attend Professor Hecat’s Defence Against The Dark Arts class during the day. The Expelliarmus spell will disarm enemy wands or other weapons, allowing you to quickly follow up with a combo during combat.

Once Professor Hecat’s Assignment 2 quest is complete, and you have successfully mastered the spell Expelliarmus, you can now access the Slytherin-specific story mission,Scrope’s Last Hope. Scrope, a charming house elf, will lead you to the missing pages if you recover a ring that resides on hisdeceased former mistress’s corpse, Apollonia Black. Scrope tells you he learned from his now-deceased mistress of the missing pages and that Apollonia informed Scrope thatshe was also searching for the pages. Clues to the location of the missing pages, Scrope says, will be foundwithin the Grotto of his former mistress.
