Hogwarts Legacy Merlin Trials Bugged, Can’t Move Balls Fix

Merlin Trials Bugged in Hogwarts Legacy

One of the bugged Merlin Trials in Hogwarts Legacy where you can’t move balls is the fourth trial in Lower Hogsfield. There, you need to move a large round stone from its “perch” into the hole below. It seems easy, and there are actually two ways to solve it. One is to hit it with Depulso, which shoves objects away from you. As long as you are precise, this is the way to go. If you don’t have Depulso, you can instead use Levioso on the rock to lift it and then Accio to slowly guide it to the hole. And I do mean slowly; if you move too far, the spell will break, and then you’re in trouble.

The main way that bugged Merlin Trials manifest in Hogwarts Legacy is when you can’t move the balls you need to complete the challenge. This can happen from the very beginning, where no matter which spell you throw at the boulder, it refuses to budge. Or, you might have moved the aforementioned large rock with Accio, but broke contact by moving too far. The ball fell and now no spell has effect. The only fix we’ve found is restarting the game. Fast-traveling away and back doesn’t work, nor does using a different spell. If you’ve found a different, less annoying fix than restarting, let us know in the comments. You would save both us and other players a headache.
