Where to Catch Thestrals in Hogwarts Legacy

After completing both The Elf, The Nab-Sack, and The Loom and The High Keep questlines in Hogwarts Legacy, respectively, you’ll be given a Nab-Sack, which is your tool for capturing magical beasts, while also unlocking the ability to ride certain creatures as mounts, such as Thestral. Capturing it will allow you to bring them back to the Room of Requirement, where you’ll take care of them to get the materials while also serving as a mode of transportation.

When it comes to capturing a Thestral, it’s a little tricky as it requires you to be sneaky. Upon finding a spot where Thestrals inhabit, you’ll need to use the Disillusionment spell to sneak up on themFollow that up with Arresto Momentum, and they’ll be ready to be captured for a brief period.

I love almost every type of video game, and when I'm not playing them, I'm writing about them... a lot. I have too many favorites to list so feel free to ask about them! Long live Ugly Sonic and the Resident Evil 3 Remake (this is a meme btw).
