How to Beat Ranrok Dragon

Tips and Strategies

Attack Only When its Health Bar is Showing

Hogwarts Legacy Beat Ranrok Dragon

You won't be able to deal damage to the Ranrok Dragon when its health bar at the top isn't showing, so don't waste your time and effort doing so.

To get the health bar to reappear, you need to hit the different colored orbs beside it with a spell of the matching color. In the meantime, dodge its attacks as much as you can.

Best Spells to Equip in Primary Slots

For the above reason, it's best that you come to the fight already equipped with a Control, Force, and Damage spell, so you don't waste time cycling through spells to match the color. Here are the spells we recommend for their versatility:

Diffindo Diffindo Confringo Confringo Glacius Glacius Depulso Depulso

Save Ancient Magic Attack for When it's Charging

Hogwarts Legacy Ranrok Dragon Attack

The Ranrok Dragon's explosion attack is capable of one-hit KO'ing you, especially in the second phase where there's not a lot of space to run from it. You should save your Ancient Magic attacks for when it's charging up the explosion attack to prevent it from damaging you.

Heal Between Phases

You'll move location with each phase change, with the Ranrok Dragon completely leaving you behind to move to the next spot. Since there's a lull in the battle, it'd be best to recover up to full HP before leaving the previous destination.

Auto-Lock Would Be Helpful

If you don't mind having your view fixed on the Ranrok Dragon the entire time, you should auto-lock on it to ensure your basic casts don't miss.
