Graphorn Overview

General Info

Hogwarts Legacy Graphorn Boss
Rewards Graphorn Mount
Quest San Bakar's Trial
Description Graphorns are large mountain-dwelling beasts that have a tough hide and two sharp horns. The tentacle-like appendages on Graphorns' faces are used for capturing food and tending to their young. Graphorns are known for their aggressive nature; however, a witch or wizard has been known to befriend one in rare circumstances.

Tips and Strategies

Use Ancient Magic

Hogwarts Legacy Graphorn Boss Fight

There are barrels around the den that you can use Ancient Magic Throw to deal large damage against the Graphorn. You can also spam basic attacks to charge up your Ancient Magic gauge. Use Ancient Magic spells when you get one blue bar to stun the beast.

Dodge Its Attacks

Given its size, it's no surprise that the Graphorn's attacks can't be blocked. Dodge its attacks instead, since it's not a fast attacker. You could see it charging up an attack a mile away (literally).

Doesn't Matter if You Kneel or Attack

Hogwarts Legacy Graphorn Boss

After you reduce the Graphorn's HP to 0, the game will make you choose between kneeling or attacking the Graphorn when it makes one last charge at you. There's no difference in outcome with choosing either option. You'll merely get different cutscenes.

Should You Kneel or Attack the Graphorn?

Graphorn Attack Patterns

Attacks Description
Close-Range Attack The Graphorn will make a swipe at you with either its front legs or its tail.
Charge Attack The Graphorn will run far away from you so that it can charge and lunge at you.
