Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince PS3 Game Tips
**
Winning Fights or Duels
- Cast the Petrificul Totalus or Levi Corpus spell. Charge your Stupify, then release it after it chimes twice. Note this spell does not work on Fenir Grayback.
Accumulating large amounts of Mini-Crests
- Use the Luck potion while you are on your way to Herbology. Now, every time you use the Diffindo spell, you will get the maximum amount of mini-crests.
Finding Bonus Crests
- After completion of the Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince PS3 game, go to Hogwarts and locate fireworks boxes. Use the Incedio spell to burn them. This will release a broken crest. Repair it with Reparo and then pick it up.
