Grand Staircase Tower - Animal Door Puzzle¶
You’ll find this Collection Chest behind an animal door puzzle which can be accessed by fast travelling to the Grand Staircase Tower Floo Flame. Once there, head down the stairs until you reach the puzzle door. You can see the answer to the puzzle in the screenshot below, with the left symbol requiring “6” and the right “7”.
Grand Staircase - Animal Door Puzzle¶
For this one, you’ll need to fast travel to the Grand Staircase Floo Flame. From here, go up the stairs to the east and turn right to go up another set of stairs. You’ll find the animal puzzle door just to your left up here. The first symbol block can be found right next to the door, while the other is located near the Floo Flame that you just ran from. The first symbol should be “0”, and the second “5”, as shown in the screenshot below. As with the other door puzzle, you’ll find the Collection Chest in the small room behind it.
Faculty Tower - Animal Door Puzzle¶
To reach this Collection Chest for The Grand Staircase section, you should travel to the Faculty Tower Floo Flame, which is listed under The South Wing on the castle map. From here, head southwest down the corridor and turn right to go through a door. Head up two flights of stairs to find another animal door puzzle in the left corner of the room here. The solution to this one can be seen in the screenshot below, with the left symbol requiring “0” and the right “9”. You’ll find the chest on the wooden scaffold just up the stairs.
Ravenclaw Tower - Animal Door Puzzle¶
Another animal door puzzle, but this time you’ll need to fast travel to the Ravenclaw Tower, from The Grand Staircase menu on the castle map. From here, go through the short corridor to the northwest to find an animal puzzle door just to your right. To solve this one, you’ll need the symbol for “4” on the left block, and the symbol for “5” on the right. You can see these in the screenshot below.
Trophy Room - The Headmaster’s Office¶
To find this Collection Chest you’ll need to reach the Headmaster’s Office, which can be accessed by fast travelling to the Trophy Room Floo Flame, then heading to the locked doors on the southeast side. You’ll need Level I in Alohomora to open these, which you can obtain by completing The Man Behind the Moons quest. Once you’re in, head all the way up the stairs until you reach the Headmaster’s Office. You may need to complete The Polyjuice Plot to gain access to the office, so be sure to do this first.
Trophy Room - The Key of Admittance Tower (Two Collection Chests)¶
Once you’ve looted the Collection Chest in the Headmaster’s Office, use Alohomora again to open the door on its northeast side. This will lead to a tower above the office where you’ll find the Key of Admittance. You need this to open the locked door at the other end of the corridor where you find the entrance to the Headmaster’s Office Gargoyle. Beyond this door you’ll find a hidden room at the top of the stairs which contains the two remaining Collection Chests.
