Scrope's Last Hope Quest
The Scrope's Last Hope quest is a Slytherin-exclusive quest in the game Hogwarts Legacy and is available after completing the Trials of Merlin quest. The quest begins when Scrope, a house-elf, sends an owl post asking for assistance in finding the missing pages. Players must first travel to the Clock Tower Courtyard and look for a note on one of the gargoyles near the central well. The note should provide an update on the objectives.
From the courtyard, head southwest across the covered bridge to the far side. On the left, there should be another note high up on a large stone. Using Accio on the nearby crate will allow players to climb up and grab the note. Following the dirt path down the hill, players will come across a small cottage with a pumpkin patch outside. The next note is hidden inside one of the pumpkins.
After collecting the journal, the ghost of Richard Jackdaw will appear. He will reveal that he stole a secret map from Peeves, hoping to impress his previous mistress, Apollonia Black. The map can be found in a chest in the grotto, also known as Apollonia's Grotto, a cave under Hogwarts with a large red squid painted on the wall. Players must place an offering, specifically a piece of toast, on the stand to open a hidden area of the cave. Inside, there is a desk with Apollonia Black's Journal and a treasure chest containing the Map with Floating Candles.
After obtaining the map, players must speak to Ollivander and then head to the Owlery located southwest of Hogwarts. At the top of the Owlery, the Map with Floating Candles will be on the ground on the southern side. In Upper Hogsfield, behind Claire Beaumont's vendor stall, there is a chest to the right of the door that contains the map as well. Completing the quest involves following the floating candles to a candlelit table, where a chest contains a random piece of gear and 400 Galleons, along with 180 XP.
