Two bells have been dislodged from their place in the Bell Tower location of Hogwarts Legacy, incentivizing you to solve a fairly complex puzzle to get them back into place by using a clever combination of spells that levitate and move these objects. The first dislodged bell can be found to the right of the stairs, just leading to the main set of bells, as it represents a medium-sized part of the set that has fallen off its hinges. The second bell lies tucked under the second flight of stairs beyond that point and will thankfully be the easier of the two for you to maneuver due to its small size.
The two spells in Hogwarts Legacy that you will need to solve this puzzle are Wingardium Leviosa and Accio, both of which are learned from different classes attended throughout the main story. Taught when you attend their your Charms session, Accio is a beginning spell that helps manipulate objects towards you and drag them closer to your character. While you may certainly try to move the missing bells in the tower with just this spell, the tricky part of the puzzle comes from the disparity in height needed to align them with their appropriate fixtures, as seen by content creator GosuNoob. Therefore, it would be best to progress far enough in the game to finish the "Professor Garlick's Assignment" quest, which grants the required spell.
The Bell Tower Puzzle Solution in Hogwarts Legacy
Once you have the spell that will help to get the bells back into place, you should first cast Leviosa on either of the two bells. This raises the object into the air for a limited time, so timing becomes crucial in order to position your character in a way that utilizes Accio best.
Since Accio pulls objects directly in your direction, you can position right across from the medium-sized bell's hinge on a narrow platform directly across from the section that overlooks the entire bell collection. Using Leviosa to put the bell up on this overlook will give you a good angle to cast Accio and pull the bell into where it locks into place.
The right positioning for the second, smaller bell affects the height of the object when you use Hogwarts Legacy's best spells for the situation. The hinge for this bell remains higher up, without a platform to help, so you are recommended to keep the bell as far above them as possible when using Accio on it.
By using a creative combination of Leviosa to bring the bell down the stairs, and then Accio to pull it toward the upper hinge, you will hear a melodious tune play as a celebration once the Bell Tower puzzle is solved in Hogwarts Legacy.
