Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Hints

In the Entrance Courtyard. Use Wingardium Leviosa on the broom and sweep the leaves on the right side of the courtyard.

In the Great hall on the table.

In the Viaduct Entrance in front on the bookcase next to the stuttering portrait.

In the Clock Tower Courtyard directly in front of the Fountain.

In the Library on the table.

When playing as Dumbledore fighting against Voldemort, do not try casting Levicorpus or Petrificus Totalus as they do not work against him. When Voldemort is on the platform the first time, you can only hurt him when he unleashes his stored power at you. Use Protego to deflect his magical blast.

In the Herbology classroom, walk into the room with four flower pots on a table. You will see a bucket hanging on the ceiling above the dancing water can. Wingardium Leviosa the bucket and let it hover over each of the pots. It will pour dirt into them. Then Wingardium Leviosa the water can. Hover it over each dirt-filled pot until it spews water on them. Spikey-plants will grow. You will receive Discovery Points. Then, go to the entrance of the Herbology room. Walk forward into the dead-end hallway directly in front of the door in the classroom. You will see a rope hanging up in a corner. Use Accio. It will air out the room and give you Discovery Points.

Go to the Entrance Hall. Go in the small custodian room to the left of the large exit doors. Wingardium Leviosa the mop and hover it over each of the four odd tiles by the golden statue. It will clean them. You will get Discovery Points, and Hermione will talk, giving you a 100% on the Marauder's Map. Then, go to the Viaduct Entrance. Wingardium Leviosa the mop near the dungeon stairs and clean the odd tiles by the large staircase. You will get Discovery Points.

To reveal the House Ghosts needed for the Room of Rewards, find the fallen portraits throughout the Hogwarts corridors. Use Wingardium Leviosa to hang them back up on the wall. The Bloody Baron's portrait is in the Dungeons. The Grey Lady's portrait is near the library on the second floor. The Fat Friar's portrait is on the first floor near the exit to the Stone Bridge.

To find the five Talking Gargoyles for Dean, look in the following areas.

In the courtyard where Dean is standing.

The spiral staircase when you walk up to DADA.

In the Viaduct.

The fourth floor outside in the balcony.

In the Paved Courtyard.. You must repair the broken staircase in the corner. It is at the end of the balcony in the corner.

The following flying creatures must be found for the Room of Rewards.

Seagulls can be found at the boathouse.

Crows are at the Stone Circle.

Pixies are in a desk in the Defense Against the Dark Arts room.

Doves are at the bridge at the Viaduct.

Bats are below the Stone Bridge. Go to the Stone Bridge and light all the torches with Incendio. Then, climb down the pipe shown and maneuver your way to the bottom. You will discover the bats.

1. Fat Lady’s Portrait

This is the first password you will get. When you are trying to find Hermione
at the beginning of the game you need to find the password to get into
Gryffindor Tower. At this point in the game there is usually a Gryffindor
running up or down the staircase near you. Grab them and ask them if they know
the portrait password. If there is not a member of Gryffindor near you then
find any Gryffindor and they will tell you. When you do find out the password
you need is "Mimbulus mimbletonia".

2. Damara Dodderige’s Portrait

You must speak with this woman when you see her on the Grand Staircase on a
Third Floor landing. If you try to talk to her in her other portrait she will
just snooze on. To get her password is very simple. All you need to do is go
down the staircase to talk to the painting of Gifford Ollerton on the first
floor. When you have asked him for her food return to her portrait and she
will tell you the password is “Chops and Gravy”.

3. Gifford Ollerton’s Portrait

You must talk to his portrait on the first floor landing of the Grand
Staircase. When you do he will tell you that he may only let someone from
Hufflepuff through unless they have the password. To get the password you need
to have helped a member from Hufflepuff House. So the simple solution is to
find someone from Hufflepuff and ask them for the password. I can usually find
one in the Entrance Hall to talk to. When you have found one, they will
remember that you helped Cederic Diggory last year at Hogwarts so they will
tell you the password is “Dragon’s egg”.

4. Percival Pratt’s Portrait

This rhyming man can be found on the fifth floor landing of the Grand
Staircase. He will ask you to “seek the man with faces three”. To find the guy
with three faces you need to go up to the seventh floor near the Room of
Requirements. If you stand with your back to the door for the Room of
Requirements and walk down the corridor in front of you, the portrait you are
looking for is on your left at the end of the corridor. It is covered in
cobwebs so you will need to use Incendio on his portrait first before you can
talk to him. When you do he will tell you to find Basil Von Fronsac.

To find him you need to go to the portrait on the second floor landing on the
Grand Staircase. When you talk to him he will send you to the portrait of the
Shepherdess on the second floor landing which is very confusing as you are on
that. The secret is he means another second floor landing. You need to go to
the corridor on the second floor. When you get to the corridor you will find
some stairs that keep turning back on themselves with landings in between. The
shepherdess in on the second landing down. Talk to her and she will tell you
to talk to Google Stump. To find him you need to go to the Viaduct Entrance.

When you get there you will find Google Stump to the right at the bottom of
the stairs. He will direct you to Gifford Abbot at the bottom of the Grand
Staircase. He is the Hufflepuff portrait whose password is “Dragon’s Egg”.
Talk to him and he tells “This password is absurd”.

5. Boris the Bewildered’s Portrait

This portrait is in the Third Floor corridor near the broken suits of armour.
To get his password you need to talk to someone who was at Hogwarts fifty
years ago. If you know your Hogwarts well enough you will remember that
Moaning Myrtle was killed at Hogwarts fifty years ago by a Basilisk. Go to her
bathroom and talk to her and she will tell you the password is
“Forget-me-never”.

6. Library Portrait

To get this password you need to bring him the headline from today’s Daily
Prophet because this is a staff passage and he won’t let you through any other
way. To get a copy of the Daily Prophet you need to go to the Great Hall and
walk to the far end of the Hall. Find the Headmaster’s Lectern in front of the
teacher’s table and first cast Depulso on it to see a quick cur scene of the
bird windows in the rafters. (You will also see the roof which is an unheard
of thing in Hogwarts.) When you have done that cast Wingardium Leviosa on the
lectern and you will see four owls fly down over the tables. One of them was
carrying the Daily Prophet. Run over and pick it up then go back to the
portrait in the Library and tell him the “news”. He will then tell you the
password is “No News Is Good News”.

7. Google Stump’s Portrait

You must talk to his portrait on a second floor landing on the Grand Staircase.
He will tell you to find a first year Ravenclaw student and ask them where
Rowena Ravenclaw came from. Head down to the Entrance Hall and you will find
one there. Ask them and they will tell you she came from the Glens. Go back to
Google and he will grant you access and tell you the password is
“Studious Success”.

8. Basil Von Fronsac’s Portrait

He can be found in the Viaduct Entrance to the right of the bottom of the
stairs. He will only tell you the password if you can get rid of anyone within
earshot. This is the easiest password to get. Pull out your wand and aim it at
everyone in the entrance so they run away. When you have cleared them out talk
to the portrait again and he will tell you the password is “Volo Futrus Unus”.

9. Dungeon’s Portrait

This portrait is the one you need to open so that Hannah Abbot will attend the
first DA meeting. He can be found up one flight of stairs in the Dungeon at
the base of the Grand Staircase. All you have to do is talk to him and he will
tell you the password is “Scurrilous Scoundrel”.

10. Herbology Portrait

This guy is apparently a bit fed up with looking at the portrait opposite him.
All it is is a picture of an eye but you need to cover it up for him to give
you the password. To do this you must repair the two broken suits of armour
either side of the picture. Use Reparo on them both and a banner will drop
down to cover the picture. When this is done talk to the Portrait and he will
tell you the password is “Flaming Earwigs”.

11. Slytherin Portrait

To find this one go all the way to the end of the Dungeon Corridor and talk to
her. She will tell you that she only lets in people with the password and only
Slytherins have the password. To get this password you will need your
invisibility cloak so go up to the dormitory and get it on. When you have it
go back down to the portrait and you will over hear a group of first year
Slytherins talking about using the passage so they aren’t late for their
potions lesson. Follow them down to the end of the corridor and they will use
the password. Now that you have over heard it you can now go back up and put
the invisibility cloak back then go and tell her the password is “Slytherins
Are Supreme”.

12. Crazy Portrait

This portrait is found on the seventh floor and he will ask you to find "him".
By this he means that you must find his "other" portrait. Go down to the fourth
floor and find him then cast Incendio on the cobwebs covering him up. Talk to
him and he will tell you that the password is "Three heads are better than
one."

1) Nearly Headless Nick - Gryffindor

The first ghost will actually come and talk to you during the game. This is
Nearly Headless Nick and he will appear when you leave the Room of
Requirements for the first time to go and find the other DA Members. If
however you would like to find him before that then his portrait can be found
on the third floor. You will see it as you come off the Suspended Bridge next
to the Exploding Snap Champion.

2) The Grey Lady – Ravenclaw

The portrait for the Grey Lady can be found right outside the Library on the
wall opposite.

3) The Fat Friar - Hufflepuff

You will find this portrait on the first floor near the Stone Bridge. If you
come from that direction move through the round part of the corridor and it is
a little way down the next stretch of corridor.

4) The Bloody Baron – Slytherin

This portrait is hidden deep in the Dungeons of Hogwarts. When you enter the
corridor, go through the first part into the second and there will be a small
room leading off from this part. The portrait for the Baron is in there.

Stone Circle.

2 Stone Circle – Cast Depulso on a fern that lays half way up the trail
leading to the Owelry.

5 Hagrid’s Hut – Cast Depulso on a second fern behind Hagrid’s Hut.

Hagrid’s Hut – Go to the Thestral clearing and cast Depulso on the fern
near the bottom on the hill.

8 Owelry – When you are helping Colin to mail the chocolates you need to
climb around the outside of the Owelry. When you do you can touch a few owls
but only one is needed for the cup.

9 Paved Courtyard – When you are gathering the DA you will need to help
Colin retrieve his camera from a high ledge. When you do this you will find a
package on the second ledge up.

10 Boathouse – At the bottom of the stairs leading from the Entrance
Courtyard, turn and walk to the right hand side of the screen to find a
package lying on the ground.

11 Boathouse - This one can be found lying on the ground halfway down the
trail that leads from the Boathouse to the Paved Courtyard.

12 Library – At the back of the first section to the Library is a large
cabinet. Cast Depulso on it to move it aside then collect the package from the
gap behind it.

1 Fourth Floor – Coming from the Grand Staircase move down the corridor
until you come to some windows on your left. Halfway along the window section
there is a tapestry on the wall opposite. Cast Wingardium Leviosa to reveal
the chess statue behind it.

2 Second Floor – Near the Library the corridor bends twice. On one of those

the cobwebs concealing the statue.

12 Dungeon Corridor – Walk to the end of the corridor and cast Incendio on

end near the room, with the Bloody Baron’s portrait in it. Light the candle
then examine the plaque.

3 First Floor – Enter from the Stone Bridge and follow the first corridor

3 The last set are Thestral tracks and can be found half way down the
trail from the hut to the Thestral clearing.

1 Entrance Courtyard – In this courtyard there are four piles of dead
leaves. Beside one of the piles is a broom. Use Wingardium Leviosa to pick the
broom up and sweep up the piles of leaves in each corner until you have
uncovered all four insignia. You can if you like put a bench with the matching
Insignia on each symbol but it is not a requirement for the cup.

2 Paved Courtyard – Repair the broken stairs in the corner and go up onto
the balcony. Up here there are four broken statues. Repair each one with
Reparo to reveal four more Insignia. Again you can place the benches on the
matching symbol but you do not need to.

3 Transfiguration Courtyard – For the last four you need to cast Wingardium
Leviosa on the globe sculpture in the middle of the courtyard. This will light
up eight shields on the floor. Around the edge of the courtyard there are
eight benches which will now have a different coloured shield on each one.
Move each bench onto one of the coloured shields around the sculpture so the
shields match. When all eight shields match you will have found all of the
Insignia needed for this cup.
