Humans and Goblins are notorious around fantasy settings when it comes to one of their few common interests, looting.
Whenever there’s a quest or reward to be had you can bet that somewhere along the way, members of your party or you personally will deviate from the path just to check what treasure the other room has.
In Hogwarts Legacy the game lets you loot to your heart’s content, you can even access restricted sections of the castle just to nick a few pieces of gold from a chest that’s minding its own business.
However, some of these pieces of gear are unknown until you have them identified. Sounds easy enough, let’s see how that works!
How to Identify Gear in Hogwarts Legacy
While you’re advancing the story or out exploring you will pick up pieces of gear that are unidentifiable sometimes, they’ll just keep on stacking until you can carry no more.
Lucky for you identifying gear is as easy as progressing through the main story!
It would be in your best interest to speak to Professor Weasley as early as you can in order to access the Room of Requirement, think of this place as your main base of operations.
You will be able to craft materials here, take care of animals, sort your clothes, and of course, identify the pieces of gear you find across the valley.
She’ll help you set up every tool or desk you will be needing in your studies including the Gear table.
Whenever you find any piece of equipment that has a question mark just keep it in your inventory and walk over to the table to interact with it.
After a few seconds, all of the gear that was unidentified earlier will now show up on the right-hand side of your screen.
Now that you know what to do go ahead and give your inventory another look.
You might have some equipment that you no longer need that you can destroy for materials or you can sell them for excess gold that you can use over at Honeydukes.
