[Disclaimer: This walkthrough will feature the gameplay from the perspective of a Year 4 student. Since the adventure is available for students of Year 4 and above, the star and attribute requirements for certain tasks might be different for you, depending on your current progress of the main story.]

When you are ready, head to the Transfiguration Classroom to meet Ben.

Upon arriving, you’ll notice the speech bubbles above some characters. Tap on those to interact with them and see what they have to say.

You will tell Ben a few words about your “master plan”.

After talking to him for a while, you’ll get the task to convince Ben to do a makeover. To do so, you need to earn five stars within three hours. Since all five stars are needed to pass, you might want to avoid starting this task with an empty energy bar.

There should be a fair number of bonus progress actions available here, so complete them any time they appear to save some energy. Those actions are tied to Ben, Rowan, and the blackboard.

After you’re done, Professor McGonagall will approach and ask about the topic of your discussion. You have two options to respond with. If you like Ben, it is recommended to go with the first option.

Shortly after, with the help of Professor McGonagall, you’ll manage to convince Ben to change his mind. Next, you’ll need to persuade Rowan. Proceed to the Library when you are ready.

Tap on the speech bubbles above some of the characters if you are interested to see what they have to say. You’ll find out that Rowan is quite upset about your “master plan”.

You’ll then be asked an interesting question. You have two response options. Each will lead to a similar outcome, so feel free to pick the one you like.

Shortly after, you will start convincing Rowan to attend the Celestial Ball. This requires earning five stars within three hours. One star is needed to pass.

let the festivities begin part 2 1140

If you want to save some energy, you can come here immediately after you complete the previous task and begin this one with an empty energy bar. Then, after one hour or so, you should have enough energy to earn one star, which is the minimum requirement. After that, simply wait for two more hours until the timer expires.

This will save you 2-3 hours worth of energy, which can be quite significant during time-limited events. However, if you want to earn some extra rewards and a chance for chocolate frog cards, you can fully complete this task.

Actions with bonus progress are tied to Rowan and a bookshelf. By prioritizing those actions, you can save a bit more energy as well.

Madam Pince will give your friend some valuable advice.

In the end, Rowan will agree to attend the ball. Your next task involves meeting Andre at the Training Grounds, so proceed there when ready. Like before, you can interact with some of your friends before talking to Andre.

You’ll greet him by calling him your favorite Quidditch player. This will come as quite a surprise to him, so he’ll want to know if you really mean that. You have two options to respond with. This choice won’t significantly impact the story, but if you like Andre, it is recommended to pick the first choice if your friendship level with him is 4 or higher.

Not long after that, you’ll have to convince Andre to help you with Ben’s and Rowan’s makeover. To do so, you need to earn five stars within an hour. Because all five stars are needed to pass, it is highly recommended to avoid starting this task with an empty energy bar.

let the festivities begin part 2 1210

Completing this task should easily be doable with a single energy bar. Bonus progress actions are tied to Andre and your character.

Once you are done, Andre will agree to help you. For the next task, head to the Three Broomsticks to meet Rowan.

Upon arriving, you can check out what some of the characters have to say by tapping on their speech bubbles. You’ll notice that Rowan is quite nervous when it comes to socializing.

let the festivities begin part 2 1260

Andre will come up with an idea to invite Bill so Rowan can practice some socializing. However, Bill will be surprised to see your friend nervous. You have three options to react with. Each of those will lead to a similar outcome, so pick the one you find the most appropriate for the situation.

Rowan will be quite happy and enthusiastic after listening to Bill. Next, you have to make Ben confident about going to the ball, which might be a bit more difficult.

Proceed to the Charms Classroom when you are ready. You’ll learn that Ben is very afraid of dancing. He’ll mention that there’s no cure for a fear of dancing.

Thankfully, Professor Flitwick knows a spell that can help – Maximus Confidencia charm. Learning it will require earning five stars within an hour. All five stars are required to complete this task.

Do this just like any other story task, and you should be able to finish it with a single energy bar. Bonus progress actions are tied to Professor Flitwick and Andre.

let the festivities begin part 2 1360

After completing the task, you’ll need to use Maximus Confidencia on Ben. Trace the wand movement on the screen to do so.

let the festivities begin part 2 1370

Luckily, the spell will work! Ben will seem more confident than ever.

let the festivities begin part 2 1380

Once he leaves, Professor Flitwick will reveal that Maximus Confidencia, in fact, does not exist. Ben only needed to believe in himself a bit more, and this was a little push in the right direction.

Next, you’ll get to see Ben and Rowan’s style makeover. Head to the Transfiguration classroom when you are ready.

Once you get there, Andre will remind you that you are yet to find an outfit for the ball. He’ll ask how you feel about that. You have two response options. None of those will significantly impact the story, so feel free to pick the option you prefer.
