Moths can be led to the puzzle door using the Lumos spell. Here is how you can rotate and solve all 4 moth puzzles in the Witch’s Tomb:

1st moth puzzle

To solve the 1st moth puzzle, go to the left side of the door. There you will find a magic butterfly. Just use Lumos to attract this Moth and lead him straight to the door. Once next to the puzzle, it will automatically fit into the door. This will open the door for you.

2d moth puzzle

To solve the 2nd moth puzzle you need to find 3 moths. Now 2 of them can be found on both sides of the door. Whereas the 3rd Magic Moth can be found behind a breakable wall.

3d moth puzzle

After spinning the 2nd Moth, you will face Inferius (zombie enemies). So, you will have to defeat them in order to move on to the next moth puzzle. The solution to the 3rd Moth puzzle in the Collector’s Cave is slightly different. Here’s what you need to do:

  • In the room you will find 2 moths. Place any of these moths on the door.
  • Use Lumos and place the second butterfly on the structure in the center of the room.
  • Next, stand on the platform on the right side.
  • Spam Depulso to get this platform up.
  • On the platform above you will find another moth. Use Lumos to place it on the door puzzle.
  • Take the third moth from the structure in the middle of the room.
  • Place it on the Moth Puzzle to open the Door.

4th moth puzzle

Rotating the 4th Moth puzzle in Urtcote’s Helmet quest from Hogwarts Legacy is very difficult. Therefore, we will break it down into the following steps:

  • There are several moths in the room.
  • Select any of the moths and place them on the Moth frame.
  • Get on the elevator next to him and spam Depulso to raise the platform.
  • There are 2 moths on the right side of the moth puzzle door.
  • Use the Lumos again and place them on the door.
  • For the next step, jump back to the ground to attract the moth with the Lumos spell.
  • Place it on the structure located to the left of the puzzle door with the moths on the ground. It will automatically rise to the level of the Moth puzzle door.
  • Now stand on the elevator platform and spam Depulso.
  • Use the Moth on the left side of the Moth Puzzle Door to rotate it.

Finally, all the Moth Puzzle Doors are now solved and you can enter the Witch’s Tomb in the Hogwarts Legacy.
