When you arrive at Hogwarts in Hogwarts Legacy, one of the first tasks you will need to complete involves a trip to Hogsmeade. There, you’ll choose your wand at Ollivander’s and pick up some other supplies you’ll need for school.
While it’s been said that your wand chooses you, there are plenty of customization options that essentially allow you to build your wand. You can also personalize your wand of choice with different wand handles. However, you won’t be able to change its base features like the core, wood, or style later on, so you’ll need to choose wisely when creating your wand at Ollivander’s.
With so many options, how do you choose the best wand in Hogwarts Legacy? You can build exceptionally unique and beautiful wands in the game, but no wand performs better than another. We’ve put together a guide to help you choose the best wand for you.

What’s the Best Wand in Hogwarts Legacy?
Regardless of build, no wand is more powerful than another in Hogwarts Legacy. Rather, your wand is basically a reflection of your personality or desires as a witch or wizard, and it does not affect your spellcasting.
