12 Best Hogwarts Legacy Mods

12. Arithmancy Number Marking Mod

You’re bound to come across particular Arithmancy Doors while walking around Hogwarts. Each of these doors is locked and requires you to solve a simple arithmetic puzzle to unlock it.

The Arithmancy Number Marking mod can shave a couple of extra seconds off by displaying some important numbers. It admittedly doesn’t save that much time overall, but it’s garnered interest from many people who need extra help or don’t want to do more mental math. If you do want to know the secret to solving the puzzles without a mod, we’ve got you covered.

11. Autohomora Auto Skip Alohomora Minigame

If you want nothing to do with the Alohomora Doors — and want to skip to the part where the door is open — you’re in luck. The Autohomora mod by VTLI completes the puzzle automatically, letting you into the area with zero effort!

10. Dot Reticle Mod

The targeting reticle used in Hogwarts Legacy is hard to miss. While it is stylish and evokes some magical theming, it is a bit on the larger size. There’s no way to change or customize it in vanilla, either. Dot Reticle is a mod that offers four smaller sizes and even an option to have no reticle at all. They all feel a bit more natural, and it’s worth looking over images of each one to get a feel for which you’d prefer.

9. Smaller UI Mod

Speaking of making things smaller, a lot of the UI and much of the text is pretty large. Again, there’s no in-game way to change the size. Coming in to fix this is Smaller UI. This mod offers three options for how much you’d like to size everything down and affects everything from the HUD to the size of each menu. For those with bigger screens, it is possible to take it down too much, so it’s worth downloading a couple of options to see what’s best.

8. Better Broom Control Mod

Riding brooms is a must for any Wizarding World game. In Hogwarts Legacy, it’s possible to ride one throughout most of the open world. Though it doesn’t feel great. Buttons can be changed, but the general control scheme is a bit awkward to some. Better Broom Control shifts things around so that you can choose the direction with the left stick and control the camera with the right. It feels much smoother and more modern.

7. Mouse Controls for Broom Mod

If you thought broom controls felt weird on a controller, you’ll find the experience a lot more challenging with a keyboard and mouse. Using WASD keys to control flying direction isn’t exactly the most comfortable. Mouse Controls for Broom presents an alternative control scheme that utilizes the mouse for flying direction. The remaining controls are the same, and even the original buttons can be used, but most will prefer the freedom that comes with using the mouse.

6. The Elder Wand Mod

No other wand is more infamous and powerful than the Elder Wand. Even if it wouldn’t give you the same mighty power, who wouldn’t want their wand to look like it in Hogwarts Legacy? The Elder Wand mod does just that by swapping your standard wand model for one that looks like the real thing. Of course, if you want to make one as close as possible without using a mod, we have a guide for that.

5. Ford Anglia 105E Mod

There are multiple brooms that can be purchased or unlocked. If you want your broom to look entirely different, you have plenty of options to choose from with mods. Arguably, the most absurd mod is also very Harry Potter-specific. Ford Anglia 105E turns your broom into the same magical flying Weasly car from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Sometimes, the model glitches a bit, and your character’s legs will stick out, but nothing comes close to flying a Ford around a castle.

4. Hogwarts Mod Merger

If you’re feeling like you have too many mods to keep track of, the Hogwarts Mod Merger mod by Iridium IO can help you. It offers you the ability to merge any mods that use English localization and PhoenixShipData.sqlite. From there, you can edit them all in one place. It helps you keep your mods neat, tidy, and easily accessed when you want to change a setting.

3. Silencio — Floo Lady Silencer Mod

Traveling by broom is fun, but you don’t always have access to your broom, and fast traveling is much quicker for the open world. The in-universe reason for fast travel is naturally because of Floo Powder, and each fast travel location has a talking plaque of the inventor, Ignatia Wildsmith, with it. Although she seems nice and is deservedly proud of her invention, it won’t take long before you’ve memorized every line of dialogue she has. Silencio — Floo Lady Silencer stops her from speaking so that you can fast-travel with peace and quiet.

2. Ascendio II.I Mod

Hogwarts Legacy is a large game, and it regrettably isn’t without some problems. Many have reported various issues across PC platforms and console platforms alike. For players in the former category who have had trouble running Hogwarts Legacy, Ascendio II.I by Seifu is a helpful mod to have. It utilizes some choice Unreal Engine tweaks to fix stuttering and boost FPS. Official fixes from the developer would be preferred, but this is a vetted solution that has improved many player experiences.

1. School Makeup Mod

While it sounds like this mod just adds more character customization for girls, it does more than that. School Makeup by Aliize gives you more options for skin tones and facial makeup for all player characters. This greatly widens the options when trying to make a character look like you or explore different styles.

That’s it for our Top 12 best Hogwarts Legacy mods. With mods or without, there’s still a lot of fun to be had, and our Hogwarts Legacy guides can provide all the tips and tricks you need.
