Here is how you can use the Flying Broom efficiently and beat Imelda’s time in Hogwarts Legacy.
While Quidditch is definitely missing from Hogwarts Legacy, you can still fly the Broom around and even set record times against Imelda and try to beat her. After completing Madam Kogawa’s Flying Class, you will have unlocked the Flying Broom if you haven’t already. You can soon find Imelda in the Quidditch arena after that and this is where the competition starts. Let’s see how you can beat the times she has set around the courses in Hogwarts Legacy.
After completing the first quest given by Imelda, you will have unlocked a quest that gives you an additional upgrade to your Broom. You need to do these as first priority if you are planning to beat Imelda. It’s because her time is set on her upgraded Flying Broom.
You will already be on the losing end if you choose to not upgrade your broom. Besides the fact that you can only access it after you upgrade the broom. After you have upgraded the Broom, attempt the next flying trial course. Completing it will unlock the quest for the next upgrade.
When it comes to the trail itself, beating Imelda’s time can be tough. If you are too far off from the required time after attempting a few times, you might need more practice. The best advice would be to really get used to the flying mechanics of the broom.
You need to practice to the point where controlling the broom is sort of a muscle memory thing. When you are running the course, make sure you take all the boosts that you can. Missing even one of these can mean that you won’t hit your time threshold.
The next thing you should take note of is to manage your own boost well, don’t waste it on parts where you need to take sharp turns. It can even be a detriment to your overall time. You need to be careful not to miss the checkpoints because this adds time to your timer.
Lastly, Use brakes. You do not have to speed through everywhere, a lot of turns are easily taken with the help of a little bit of braking involved.
Practice makes perfect, with enough practice you will be able to beat Imelda’s Time for sure! That is all you need to know on how to beat Imelda in Hogwarts Legacy.
