How to Solve Moonstone Pillars Merlin Trials in Hogwarts Legacy

You can solve the Moonstone Pillars Merlin Trials by using the Lumos spell that you will unlock early in the game.

You simply have to activate all three Moonstone Pillars with the moths or butterflies using the Lumos spell.

Once you reach the Moonstone Pillars Merlin Trial locations, here’s how to solve them:

  • Firstly, cast the Revelio spell to discover all the Moonstone Pillars and the moths around the area.
  • As you spot the butterflies or moths around the area, cast the Lumos spell near them. Doing so will allow the Moths to follow your wand.
