Learning new spells is arguably the most exciting aspect of Hogwarts Legacy. Discovering new spells and then using them in battles to defeat enemies or duel alongside friends is undoubtedly an exhilarating experience. Depulso is a powerful banishing charm that will help players immensely during battles in the game.
As your character is a 5th year student at Hogwarts, each teacher has agreed to give extra homework and teach new spells to compensate for previous years. Professor Sharp, a former Auror who teaches potions at Hogwarts, asks you to complete an assignment to learn the Depulso spell. We'll see how it goes.
An article on how to solve Merlin's Trials already talks about this:

Learning the Depulso spell in Hogwarts Legacy
Depulso's apprenticeship begins after completing the main quest of Richard Jackdaw's Rest, which triggers Professor Sharp's first mission:
- Buy and use a focus potion.
- Buy and use Maxima and Edurus potions simultaneously.
These three potions are sold at J. Pippin's Potions Shop in Hogsmeade, of which the Concentration Potion is 500 Galleons, and the Maxima and Edurus Potions are 300 Galleons each.
So you just have to go there to buy and use them. You can drink all three and come back to potions class, or wait until you're in the middle of a fight to use them as buffs.
It is also possible to prepare the potion yourself, and in this case to buy the recipes as well available at J. Pippin's Potions, knowing however that the latter cost a little more expensive. The Focus Potion recipe alone, for example, is 1,200 Galleons.
After using all three potions, return to Professor Sharp and attend the morning class. After that, the Ex-Auror will teach you the Depulso spell, a banishment spell in Hogwarts Legacy used to knock enemies back.
Preparation of requested potions
Each potion provides a buff that wears off after a short duration. The preparation of each of the three potions of Hogwarts Legacy requires specific ingredients as follows:
- Focus Potion (Reduces drinker spell cooldown):
- caterpillar flies : Commonly found in open fields.
- Stream grass stem : it can be found in seed form at The Magic Neep store (Can be planted in a Large Pot).
- Dugbog's Tongue : Obtained by killing a Dugbog, which is a common enemy in the Forbidden Forest.
- Maximum Potion (Increases drinker spell damage for a limited time)
- leech juice : Found near any water's edge.
- spider fang : Obtained after defeating a spider, commonly found underground in the Forbidden Forest.
- Edurus Potion (Enhances drinker's defense by covering them with durable rocky skin)
- Ashwinder Eggs : Found in Abandoned Camps.
- dog fur : Obtained after defeating a mongrel dog.
Although it is not necessary to buy the recipe and prepare the potions and it takes more effort, it can be useful for you in the long run because these potions will certainly be needed later to improve your defense and the spell damage against tougher opponents in the game.
