Hogwarts Legacy is an open-world RPG that features ancient magic secrets. During your wizarding journey, you will encounter chests containing gear and Galleon rewards. This is problematic as the gear slot will always be full as you discover new chests throughout the world. Here is how to increase gear slots in Hogwarts Legacy.
How to Get More Gear Slots in Hogwarts Legacy
You are limited to 20 Gear Slots at the start of Hogwarts Legacy. This can be increased when you complete Merlin Trials. Merlin Trials are questions that the player must solve in the open world left by Merlin.
Open the Challenges tab on your Field Guide and navigate to Exploration. You may then claim the Merlin Trials reward for four additional gear slots, although Merlin Trials are required to claim the reward.
In Hogwarts Legacy, how do you complete Merlin Trials?
Merlin Trials can be seen on the World Map in areas you have discovered but are identified by the stone circle covered with veins on the ground. Mallowsweet Leaves can be purchased in Hogsmeade if required; however, you will receive five during the Trials of Merlin story quest.
Each Merlin trial is a short puzzle that requires you to either move boulders to a pressure plate with Accio or light pillars with Incendio. Once you have activated a trial, use Revelio to highlight nearby interactable objects to find the puzzle elements.
