Walkthrough | A Job to Do Harry Potter Deathly Hallows 2 Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

The forces of evil have attacked Hogwarts. The enemies will surely try to get across the bridge and it's your task to stop them. Neville, Ginny and Seamus have been chosen to blow up the structure. You will take control of the last one, at least for at the beginning.

Go through the chamber and gather two collectibles on your way (the corridor on the left and the fountain). Outside you will be attacked from a distance, but luckily you have two friends there to help you. Neville, apart from using some powerful magic, will also tell you the best moment to move to the next cover. Listen to his advice and nothing should happen to you. That way you will reach the first of six spots where you need to plant explosives.

Move forwards and you will learn a new spell. Confringo is a powerful magical missile that can even strike down groups of enemies. Unfortunately it takes a while to charge and is rather slow. You will be able to test its power right away, as Seamus will be attacked by a group of Death Eaters. After dealing with the threat you will notice that Hogwarts' protective barrier has disappeared and a second wave of enemies will attack. Defeat them and plant the second charge.

The road to the third bridge element is dangerous as well. At first you will have to look out for wizard shooting magic beams. Neville will tell you of their presence. Hide behind the rock and follow his suggestion of using Confringo on them. A bit further you will have to fight some more Death Eaters.

After you plant the third charge, the enemies will carry out a real assault. Take care of them and artillery will fire at the bridge. Enemies will attack once again afterwards. eventually you will reach (take the collectible on your way) to a valley overflowing with enemies, where you should primarily focus on those who pose the biggest threat, that is the wizards shooting purple projectiles. You will plant the fourth magic C4 unbothered by anyone. You will note two beacons on the road to the hill. Shoot them for a blue collectible.

Move further and Neville will eventually tell you that enemies are attacking from behind. The problem is that enemies will come from the other side as well and you don't want to be caught is a cross-fire. That's why I'd suggest quickly running to the corner and hiding behind the rock. Clear the area of Death Eaters and plant the last charge.

The situation will repeat itself soon enough, with the only difference being that you will be attacked from above and from the side of the main road. Especially look out for the mages using rapid fire.

Once all the charges are planted, you will switch to Neville. Your task now will be protecting Seamus, who has to return to Hogwarts. The Death Easters however are far from giving up and he needs your help. You have a new spell at your disposal - Petrificus Totalus, capable of knocking down smaller enemies in one hit (two are needed for the bigger ones). Seamus is quite tough, so you don't have to worry about his health too much (it regenerates).

During this part of the level you will visit four locations. You have to clear each of them of enemies, but starting from the third they will attack you as well. They, meaning the distinctive wizards using exploding projectiles. They are very dangerous, so it'd good to eliminate them right at the beginning. There will be two of them in the third locations and four in the last one.

This however isn't the end, as now the Death Eaters will reach the bridge and start attacking Neville. Note that the corridor is very narrow, so Confringo will be very useful here. The fight is very exhausting, mainly because of the sheer number of enemies, so it's best you hide behind a cover right away and attack from there.

The final part of the bridge operation will be very dynamic. The construction will start to crumble and Neville will have to start running, however Scabior will appear right behind him. In order to survive you have keep running forward (there are no obstacles to avoid here) and attack the enemy from time to time. Keep in mind that Expulso needs a couple seconds to recharge.
