If you’re looking to add extra capacity to your Ancient Magic meter in Hogwarts Legacy, you will need to find Ancient Magic hotspots and collect their traces. There are 20 of these hotspots scattered across the open world game’s map and we’re here to help you find them.

Increasing your Ancient Magic meter capacity will make completing the finishing touches achievement/trophy that much easier as you will be able to use more of powerful spells before your meter runs dry. Doing so will require you to collect a number of traces, with the challenge split into three sections: collect two traces, six traces, and then 12 traces. Each section of the challenge will earn you an upgrade to your Ancient Magic hotspot.

To collect the traces, you will need to first locate a hotspot and then activate it. Once activated, a number of orbs will appear near to the location of the spot that you need to collect from. You can use Revelio to make finding them easier.

Remember: you can only start searching for these hotspots after you have completed the ‘Secrets of the Restricted Section’ main story mission.
