Personal Space Updates
For those of us with large Furniture collections, these updates will be great. Now you can show off more of your collection with a curated room you can design differently than the main space.
- If you have 60+ Furniture items, you’ll be able to unlock a new room in your Personal Space.
- If you have 100+ Furniture items, you can expand your Personal Space one time.
Exam Week Updates
Originally, it took 30 class task completions to unlock Exam Week. Now, it’s half that amount, with only 15 class tasks needed. This will make it a lot less grindy and more efficient for those with limited time, like myself. If you need help in Muggle Studies or History of Magic, we have guides with all the answers to get you a Perfect score quickly.
In addition to reducing the unlock requirements for Exam Week, some classes have also had their tasks tweaked.
- Elementary Charms only requires three uses of Wingardium Leviosa, where it was five previously.
- Intermediate Charms only requires four uses of Wingardium Leviosa, where it was seven previously.
- Intermediate Defense Against the Dark Arts Pixie class only requires you to catch 20 Pixies yourself, where it was 29 Pixies previously.
These reductions will certainly help when trying to Pass and get Perfect scores in a class. I know I had to redo the Intermediate Pixie class at least five times trying to capture 29 of them myself.
