Wand length doesn’t matter in Hogwarts Legacy. Longer is not better than shorter, as all wands perform exactly the same. Whether it’s nine and a half inches or fourteen and three-quarters inches, the shortest wands and longest wands perform exactly the same.
What does wand length mean in Hogwarts Legacy?
Wand length in Hogwarts Legacy simply impacts how the wand looks. If the player is a tall character, then a longer wand might look more appropriate. If the player is shorter, then a shorter wand might look more appealing.
Like the other wand options, wand length is purely a cosmetic change, with no difference in power or performance. It’s just down to player preference. Longer wands are somehow more powerful, so all players will be at the same power level, regardless of the size of their wand.
To be like Harry, opting for 11 inches is the way to go. This is a good middle ground that doesn’t look too short or too long. For those unsure of what wand length to choose, between 11 and 12 inches will likely look the best.
