Every Harry Potter fan out there has heard of the Unforgivable Curses at least once, and with their inclusion in Hogwarts Legacy, many fans are excited to use them in the game. Being introduced to viewers for the first time in Harry Potter: The Goblet of Fire, there was one particular curse that was used much more frequently going forward, Aveda Kedavra, the Killing Curse.
Today, we’ll be going through an in-depth guide on how you can perform this spell to put your enemies to rest.

How To Learn The Killing Curse In Hogwarts Legacy
You can acquire Aveda Kedavra either via playing Hogwarts Legacy’s quest “In the Shadow of the Relic” or by purchasing the deluxe edition of the game, which comes pre-equipped with the cursed spell.
If you’re looking to learn the spell by progressing through the game, keep in mind that it’ll be only available to you towards the very end of the main playthrough. It’s understandable since Aveda Kedavra can one-shot most of your enemies, and keeping it towards the end allows you to delve into the other cool spells of the wizarding world.
Nevertheless, let’s dive right into both the ways of acquiring the deathly spell in Hogwarts Legacy.

How To Get Killing Curse From Main Quest Lines
The last Unforgivable Curse is learned during Sebastian Sallows’ relationship quest line. While completing the quest “In the Shadow of the Relic”, you will interact with an NPC called Sebastian. He will show you a prompt, asking whether or not people should learn the Unforgivable Curse. If you select Yes, he will offer to teach it to you. Follow the prompts until you have the spell in your inventory.
In case you do not want to learn it immediately, you can also learn it later on during the quest “In the Shadow of Fate”. However, for this, you will need to finish Sebastian Sallows’ relationship quest line entirely. After that, he will teach you all 3 Unforgivable Curses if you haven’t learned them already.

How To Get Killing Curse From Dark Arts Arena In Hogwarts Legacy
If you have the means and want to get the Aveda Kedavra spell earlier, you can always buy the Deluxe Edition of Hogwarts Legacy. This edition comes with several perks, including 72-hour early access and the ability to play the Dark Arts Arena.
By playing the Dark Arts Arena, you can spam the Aveda Kedavra spell against enemies to reach the rewards at the end. These rewards include learning the last Unforgivable Curse and the ability to equip it in-game. Once you have done that, you can breeze through the rest of the content.
Can You Use Aveda Kedavra On Anyone In Hogwarts Legacy?
While it’s true that Aveda Kedavra can kill any character in one blow, Hogwarts Legacy’s developers have made sure players don’t get crazy with the power, even if they do unlock it early.
Using the Unforgivable Curse on any friendly NPC, such as professors, results in nothing more than a dialogue. If you use it on an NPC outside the school, it won’t have any effect except for some negative remarks from your teammates. So if you were thinking of following the path of a cold-blooded Death Eater, then you’ll probably be disappointed with the spell.
