Turning a box on its head in Hogwarts Legacy

For the quest “The High Keep” in Hogwarts Legacy, your goal is to climb the battlements and reach the roof of Falbarton Castle. Natsai Onai is your companion on this quite difficult quest. Find out how to solve the riddles and master the challenge in this guide.

The High Keep

The High Keep is a main story quest in Hogwarts Legacy. You will receive this after you have finished the quest “In the Shadow of the Estate” with Sebastian and helped Deek in “The Elf, the Nab-Sack, and the Loom”.

To start “The High Keep” you meet with your companion Natsai Onai on the northeast of the map. Follow the markings on your map to reach the starting point for The High Keep.

Climb the Battlements

At the beginning of the quest, you and Natsai Onai are standing in front of a locked gate at Falbarton Castle. The quest step is “Climb the Battlements”.

Look towards the gate and then walk along the wall on the right. You come to a junk pile. You can climb up this pile of junk from the direction you’re coming from. The following screenshots show you how to do it:

When you get to the top you can set the lever in motion with the Depulso spell. Take out the box and carry it to the right tower. Your goal is to turn the crate upright. I used the boards that are leaning against the tower for this. If the crate is upright, place it under the opening and you can climb up.

Enter the Gatehouse

You can destroy the boards that are now blocking your way with Confringo. In the corridor, however, the path is blocked by a crate. Exit the hallway again, run to the other side of the room, and cast Accio through the window to pull the crate away.

You now open the gate inside by firing the Depulso spell at the object at the upper end of the gate several times in quick succession.

Get to the Roof

After a short cutscene, the next gate will fall in front of you. Orient yourself to the right and climb up. Further up you will see a crate that you can knock down with Depulso. Run down and use Accio to drag the crate to the right edge. Jump on the crate here and climb up.

When you get to the top, a few more enemies and 2 opportunities to pick locks with Alohomora await you. Completing this quest now also unlocks Highwing as a mount.
