A Basis For Blackmail is a relationship-type quest in Hogwarts Legacy.
Your objective is to find evidence from people harassed by Harlow and then rescue Natty.
Here’s a walkthrough and guide of A Basis For Blackmail in Hogwarts Legacy.
To begin the quest, find Natty at the south exit of Hogsmeade as shown in the map below.
Talk to her to begin.
Speak with Daisy Rabe
You’ll then need to find three people in Hogsmeade, all of whom have been blackmailed by Harlow.
The first one I went to was Daisy Rabe. She’s located at the upper floor of Three Broomsticks.
Next, look for Otto Dibble.
Lastly, look for Agabus Philbert. Their locations are all marked on your map.
Search for Natty
Return to the place Natty was. You’ll find that she isn’t here.
Search for Natty near Hog’s Head Inn
Now, head over to Hog’s Head Inn. You’ll see that her wand is left behind.
Follow the trail
Use Revelio and follow the footsteps trail on the ground.
It will bring you through the inn and eventually at a cellar door.
Enter the cellar.
Search the cellar
To open the barrel door, use Accio on the two handles beside it and drag them out fully.
Find Natty, Agabus Philbert’s book of poems and Otto Dibble’s love letter
The main objective is to find Natty but there are optional objectives to find a book of poems and a love letter.
Luckily, the optional items are in the big room where all the Ashwinder soldiers are.
Defeat the Ashwinder soldiers first.
Then, look around for chests. The love letter is found in a big chest.
You’ll find the poem in a chest as well.
Now, look for Natty. Take out the Ashwinder soldiers on the upper floor first.
Head to the door which is marked on your screen.
Talk to Isko Rabe
You will see both Isko Rabe and Natty in separate cells.
Talk to Rabe.
Find Rabe’s wand
Isko Rabe’s wand is located on the table in a box.
Unlock it using Alohomora. Give the wand to Rabe and wait for him to free himself and Natty.
Find a way out
To exit the hideout, you can use the same way you got in.
Talk to Officer Singer
Finally, speak to Officer Singer who is already outside the inn. The quest ends here.
