Destruction of the Orbs

The Orb Destruction is a puzzle where you have to destroy 9 small orbs on top of pillars. The orbs can be destroyed with Basic Cast, so find them and rapidly press R2 to destroy them. Use Revelio to easily find them.

Orb Placement

Orb Placement is a puzzle where you have to bring 5 small orbs scattered in 3 locations to the hollowed pedestals using Accio. The orbs to be transported are highlighted in blue with Revelio, so use Revelio to search the surroundings.

Golf

Golf is a puzzle where you have to put a large ball into a large hole using Depulso or Wingardium Leviosa. Using Revelio, the ball, and the hole will be highlighted in blue. Use Depulso or Wingardium Leviosa to transport the ball in the shortest distance.

Picture Matching Puzzle

Picture Matching is a puzzle where you have to align the patterns drawn on the stone pillars using Flipendo. After aligning the faces with the △ mark using Flipendo, you can clear the picture-matching puzzle by continuously using Flipendo from either the left or right face.

Destruction of Rocks

The destruction of rocks is a puzzle where the large rocks cannot be destroyed using Basic Cast. However, it can be destroyed using Confringo or Bombarda. Cast Revelio to highlight the rocks that need to be destroyed.

Ignition

Ignition is a puzzle where you ignite the stone pillars that appear in three places using Confringo. Each pillar has a different length and starts to sink into the ground when ignited. Since it is necessary to ignite one of the pillars before it is completely buried, it is recommended to ignite them starting from the longest pillar in a location where you can overlook all three places.

Guide the Butterflies

Guide the Butterflies is a puzzle where you guide the butterflies that appear in three places to a square stone pillar with Lumos. Unlike the moth puzzle, the butterflies stay in place when you cast Lumos. This makes the puzzle easier to clear as long as you find the butterflies. Although you cannot take advantage of Revelio, they can be easily found even in dark places because they emit light.

Restoration of Statues

The restoration of statues is a puzzle where you repair the broken statues at the start of the trial with Reparo. Cast Revelio to highlight which statues to repair.

Jump

Jump is a puzzle where you leap from rock to rock without touching the ground. There is no specified starting point. It is easier to clear if you move to the highest rock with a broom before starting. In addition, for some trials, you can clear them easily while riding on a broom because you can choose where you land.

How to Solve Merlin Trial in Keenbridge

Place the Large Orb in the Hollow in the Center of the Village

For the trial in Keenbridge, you need to place the Large Orb hidden in the shade of the Large Tree in the center of the village into the hollow at the end of the bridge to clear the trial. The most efficient way to move the Large Orb is by using Wingardium Leviosa, so it is recommended to progress through the story first if you haven't learned it yet.
