Garreth Weasley in Hogwarts Legacy

Hogwarts Legacy gives players an option to steal a Fwooper Feather for Garreth Weasley during a potion class. Here are the consequences you’ll face for stealing and not stealing the Fwooper Feather for Garreth Weasley in Hogwarts Legacy.

Hogwarts Legacy’s main campaign, which Xbox One and PlayStation 4 users can finally try out, takes you to many iconic locations in the Wizarding World and into the path of quirky characters that play a key role in how the story plays out.

Sometimes, we’re asked to make key decisions that will decide the fate of fellow students, such as whether or not to turn in Sebastian Swallow before he teaches us the Unforgivable Curses.

One of these choices presents itself early on in Hogwarts Legacy during the first Potions class, where Garreth Weasley asks the player to steal a Fwooper Feather from Professor Sharp’s office. Here’s a breakdown of what happens depending on what you decide to do.

What happens if you steal the Fwooper Feather in Hogwarts Legacy?

If players choose to grab the Fwooper Feather from Professor Sharp’s office in Hogwarts Legacy then Garreth will add it to his potion, leading to a hilarious moment where his brew explodes into a dazzling fireworks display.

The teacher will scold the student and confront the player over the incident. If you own up to stealing the feather then Sharp will praise you for your honesty, or you will be reminded to take responsibility for your actions if you decide to lie.

Those who steal the Fwooper Feather will answer to Professor Sharp.

What happens if you don’t steal the Fwooper Feather in Hogwarts Legacy?

Simply put, nothing will happen if you don’t steal the Fwooper Feather in Hogwarts Legacy. Garreth Weasley will be disappointed that you didn’t help him and vow to find another way to get hold of the missing ingredient.

His efforts are clearly successful, as the potion still disrupts the class by exploding, only this time Professor Sharp gives you a pat on the pack for not bowing to peer pressure.

Should you steal the Fwooper Feather in Hogwarts Legacy?

All things considered, you should steal the Fwooper Feather in Hogwarts Legacy, as there are no lasting consequences caused by either decision.

No matter what players choose to do, you’ll still be able to access Garreth Weasley’s side quest later on in the game, so there’s no pressure to keep him happy just to unlock a mission down the line.

The reaction of Professor Sharp also doesn’t play any large role in the game’s story, and your interactions with the teacher will be completely unchanged.
