📋 About This Mod

Lowers the cooldown of the 3 unforgivable curses.

Crucio: 15s (Normally 20)

Imperio: 20s (Normally 30)

Avada: 40s (Normally 90)

Lowered them to have more fun but not so much as to be super cheaty.

Installation:

-Extract the .pak file from the .zip using winrar or 7zip

-Drop it into your ~mods folder or create it if you don't have one (SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Hogwarts Legacy/Phoenix/Content/Paks/~mods)

Important

If you have multiple mods editing the phoenix db use this mod merger or it will not work.

The files also contain an old version which has crucio: 15s imperio: 15s and avada: 30s if you'd rather use that.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Makes the Unforgivable Curses much more spammable, letting you dominate fights with Avada Kedavra every 40 seconds instead of waiting forever
  • Tiny mod, no bloat—just tweaks three values, so it's lightweight and won't mess with other gameplay
  • Community-tested (185 endorsements) and still downloaded a lot (8.9k), so it's proven to work for many players

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects cooldowns—no other changes, so if you wanted rebalanced damage or new mechanics, this isn't it
  • Last updated in March 2023—might not be compatible with the latest game patches, so check before installing

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to back up your original game files before replacing anything, just in case you want to revert.

  • Test the mod in a low-stakes fight first to see if the new cooldowns feel balanced for your playstyle.
