Description In the Room of Requirement, Deek showed me the nab-sack, which I can use to transport magical beasts. We then went to the Highlands and rescued a Puffskein, a Jobberknoll, and a Mooncalf. I also learned that beasts provide magical materials when properly cared for.

Unlocks the Nab-Sack

The Nab-Sack is a magical bag that allows you to rescue beasts and put them in the Vivarium, safe from other poachers. Feed and brush them to gain their affection and obtain materials for upgrading your gears with traits!

Capturing Nimble Beasts

Hogwarts Legacy - using Accio on a Mooncalf

Beasts will run if startled and whenever you use your Nab-Sack. Since this gear needs time to capture a Beast, fast-moving ones like Mooncalves will be difficult to capture as they can get out of range in a short time.

Use Control or Force Spells like Arresto Momentum, Levioso, and Accio to immobilize them before using your Nab-Sack.
