Cracking the Viaduct Courtyard Bridge Conundrum in Hogwarts Legacy

To unravel the mystery of the Viaduct Courtyard Bridge puzzle in Hogwarts Legacy, gamers need to ignite the four Braziers and align their Roman numerals correctly. This enigma lies within the Great Hall section of Hogwarts Castle, adjacent to the Viaduct Courtyard Floo Flame.

To set the Braziers ablaze, players need to master a Fire Spell, such as Incendio in Hogwarts Legacy. This can be achieved by completing Professor Hecat’s initial assignment, which involves:

1. Triumphing in two rounds of Crossed Wands.
2. Successfully executing a round of Spell combination practice with Lucan Brattleby.

Once these tasks are completed, players can return to Professor Hecat’s classroom to learn their first Fire Spell in Hogwarts Legacy. Equally, It’s worth mentioning that Incendio isn’t the only Fire Spell that can be used to solve this puzzle – any Fire Spell should suffice.

To determine the correct Roman numeral for each Brazier, players need to inspect the grate on the bridge floor. This feature holds the key to the Viaduct Courtyard Bridge puzzle in the game, as it displays each symbol’s specific Roman numeral on its plate. Subsequently, wizards should examine the symbol beneath each Brazier.

The symbols correspond with the following Roman numerals:

Roman Numerals	Associated Symbols
I	Triangle with lines
II	Crescent moon with a line
III	Triangle with a circle
IV	Diamond with an X

Engaging with each Brazier allows players to assign the correct symbol to its corresponding number. However, attempting to interact with any Brazier before igniting them will prove fruitless.

Finally, successful resolution of the puzzle triggers the grate’s mechanisms, opening a cavity in the bridge. This cavity leads underneath the Viaduct Courtyard Bridge, where gamers will find two standard chests either side and a Legendary Chest at the end on the left.
