Hogwarts Legacy: Grand Staircase Puzzle Door Solution

This guide shows how to open the locked door in the Grand Staircase in the Hogwarts Legacy game, which released on 10th February 2023. You will find a Collection Chest behind this door. Inside the chest, you will find clothing items.

From the Grand Staircase Floo Flame Location, climb up two flights of stairs to reach this door. The door will have creature symbols around it. Each creature around the door represents numbers 0 to 9 as shown in the picture below.

Getting close to the door will reveal a riddle, which is basically two very simple mathematics equations. In these equations, one variable is represented with a question mark (?), and the other variable is represented with two question marks (??) as shown in the pictures below. The number at the center of the circle is the sum of the numbers on the circle. Solve the equation to get the variables (? & ??).

Top Equation
4 + Magical Creature (2) + ? = 6
? = 0

Bottom Equation
1 + 5 + ?? = 11
?? = 5

Near the doors, you will find the tablet with ‘?’ on it. Interact with the tablet and change the symbol to the magical creature corresponding to the number 0 as shown in the picture below.

On the left side of Grand Staircase Floo Flame, you will find the tablet with the ‘??’ symbol. Interact with the tablet and change the symbol to the magical creature corresponding to the number 5 as shown in the picture below. This will unlock the door. Go inside to open the chest and get clothing items.
