How to complete Like a Moth to a Frame and find all Moth Mirrors in Hogwarts Legacy
Unlike other puzzles or collectibles in Hogwarts Legacy, the search for Moth Mirrors does not require completing a quest beforehand. However, there is a sidequest called Moth to a Frame that serves as an introduction to the puzzle mechanics. You will learn how to solve these puzzles through this quest, rather than stumbling upon them during exploration.
Essentially, there is a student named Lenora Everleigh located in the Library Annex: Central Hall area, standing in front of a Moth Mirror. Speak to her and begin tracking the quest "Like a Moth to a Frame." To solve the Moth Mirror puzzles in Hogwarts Legacy, simply follow these steps:
Cast Lumos on the Moth Mirror and it will reveal a clue to a nearby location.
Go to that location and you'll find a flying moth. In this side quest, it's in the opposite side of the hall.
Cast Lumos to attract the moth and bring it back to the mirror, which will generate a Field Guide Page that you can obtain. Completing each Hogwarts Legacy Moth Mirror will reward you with an additional Field Guide Page.
You can commence solving Moth Mirror puzzles even if you haven't finished Like a Moth to a Frame. The moth is exclusively designated for this side quest. Once you reach this stage, you simply need to pay attention to the clues. But fret not, we have your back. We have compiled a list of all the Moth Mirror locations in Hogwarts Legacy (relative to the nearest Floo Flame), as well as the whereabouts of the magical insect itself.
Lastly, it is important to note that certain areas in the game are initially inaccessible. In order to gain access to these areas, you will need to learn and utilize the Alohomora spell. Additionally, enhancing your lockpicking abilities may require the collection of Demiguise Statues/Moons.
Upon completing each Moth Mirror puzzle within Hogwarts Legacy, you will be rewarded with a Field Guide Page. This will not only increase your overall collectibles tally, but also provide valuable information for your exploration.
