Harry Potter: Wizards Unite: Tips and tricks for January 2020
Brew potions using Master Notes
On the subject of potions, brewing potions in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite takes time, but you can reduce this time by using Master Notes.
Master Notes are gestures, specific to each different potion you can make, that cut the brewing time by 15%. You draw the shapes of a given sequence into the cauldron after tapping the wooden spoon. The shapes will appear above the cauldron as you make each pattern. Enter the wrong gesture, and your entire sequence is deleted, but you can try as many times as you need to in order to get it right.
Another nice thing about Master Notes is that they reduce the total time to brew by 15%, not the remaining time. This means if you input the Master Notes sequence when there is 15% or less time remaining on a potion, it will complete instantly.
How to brew every potion with Master Notes in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite!
Brewing and Speeding Up is cheaper than buying
If you are looking to fight some fortresses but find yourself low on health potions you can always buy them from Diagon Alley for 25 gold, or, if you have the ingredients available there is a cheaper way.
Speeding up health potion production once you start brewing only costs 12 gold per potion — essentially half price compared to Diagon Alley — so you can grab four potions really quickly with minimal fuss. Of course, you will need the ingredients to brew the potions, but in my experience, there is always enough around to brew a health potion or two.
Spend your gold wisely
Gold is the in-game currency in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, which you can get by playing the game or by spending real money to buy it. Whichever option you choose, makes sure you are spending your gold wisely, because once you do, it's gone.
