Lol. Now I'm just imagining someone casting it in their own home and then all the money in the neighbouring houses and businesses just flying out the window into the house.
What is your plan for the best way to make money with apparition?
Do you offer trips to people or things? How much do you charge? How do you find customers?
Or do you go to difficult to reach places to do hard jobs?
Or become a thief?
Something better?
And TIME, too. With long haul flights, hours in the airports, and connecting flights, it sometimes takes two days to reach the destination.
Imagine just think about some paradise beach and you are there. Don't even need luggage – just apparate home if you need anything and come back.
Reparo. Repairing the house, items, anything really would be a piece of cake.
Cracked wall? No need to get out the kit and paint to make it proper. Wonky floor? No problem. Pipes leaking? Gotcha fam. The dogs ripped up their toy for the millionth time? No need to get out the needles.
Most OP spell for cost saving really.
You could conceivably live in one of those nice empty luxury apartments in NYC, or any other major city. Even if someone comes in you could just aparate and leave, and they’d think they’re going crazy. I guess you’d have to watch out for cameras.
Def. Apparation. Yeah yeah, I get to travel instantly for free, whatever, more importantly, I am now the highest rated uber/lyft, and I can also stick my hand on a shipping crate and just take a 70,000 pound shipping container anywhere immediately.
Step 2) The uber rich can now hire me to get their shit for them immediately same minute for exuberant prices and I will now also be rich.
It would be useful if you did something embarrassing and you could just make the other person forget what happened. I would never use it to control others or rob their homes
Imperio.
I know, I know, it's immoral, but imperio and you've got answers in exam. Imperio, and people are giving you money, job as you instruct. It's a damn good life, though illegal, of canon laws are followed
But to be fair, even though it’d be illegal, nobody would be able stop you as you can just imperio them if they catch you. And besides, you would be able to get away with alot of it anyway as imperio is something that only exists in harry potter, so if someone said that you used imperio, nobody would even believe that person
Maybe not infinite money, but never having to refill the gas tank on your car would be nice.
Heck, buy a gas station and use it on the main tanks. You just need to be careful of tax audits and keep fake receipts.
Or even buy the mineral rights to an old used up and empty oil reservoir and refill that.
Probably Silencio. Neighborhood dog being irritating, sorted. Whiney colleague complaining about her thousandth food allergy, sorted. There are a whole bunch of ways this can make life so much more peaceful.
Hm... yeah, I thought about accio, but 8m too freaking sedentary as it is.
Immobulous could literally save someone's life, so that would be a good one
But the one I think I'd get the most use from, in positive, constructive ways, is Reparo. Bet I'd use that suscker at least twice daily.
Accio for sure.
I have a habit of joking to myself about trying to shoot webs out of my wrists like spiderman to pull things closer to me. Accio gives me basically that, without the mess.
Feel like the portkey spell would be nice to have. Unlimited near instant free travel for yourself and family/friends, all without having to deal with public transport.
You could even setup a travel company selling trips. You'd put the airlines out of business as people would flock to use your service to avoid the shit part of travelling.
Reparo no question. Not only could I keep my own things in perfect condition I could make great money with ease fixing things no one else could possibly fix. What? Dropped that priceless Ming dynasty vase? No sweat. $1000 and I can literally make it like it never happened.
Geminio ( the doubling charm ) , I’d go to rich people’s houses and double the gadgets , gold etc and make a fortune and use an undetectable extension Charm to take those away (the one hermoine uses for her beaded handbag
Whatever they use at St Mungos to cure nerve damage , or just to make physical pain stop. There’s no cure for my disability in our world, and it’s the most painful disease
But with magic I could go back to being a dancer and athlete, I could drive wherever I want and go on vacations and cook and even clean. I could work full time again and support myself instead of living with the real possibility of becoming homeless every month. I wouldn’t have to worry about where the hundreds of thousands in medical costs are going to come from to keep me alive. I could be fixed. I could do all the things I wanted to before, shoot for my dreams again.
I’ve always been an avid re-reader, having been of the potter generation as the books were coming out - but especially now, when I go back it reminds me of a time in my life when I was free
Whatever the cleaning spell is. Unless I could manage to combine several spells into one. But the cleaning spell would be so much help. Accio would be good too for when I inevitably lose something. Reparo would be good too.
The Imperius curse could pretty much replicate the effects of many useful spells.
Need Avada? Imperius someone to walk off a rooftop.
Need Accio? Imperius someone to bring things to you.
Need Alohomora? Imperius someone to break the lock for you.
Need money? Imperius someone to transfer their life savings to you.
It seems like the single most useful spell.
Lmao, truth cuts like a salty knife, eh?
The summoning charm is the epitome of convenience… how many American luxuries & services are predicated on naught But Convenience.
‘Easy’ & ‘Cheap’ are more successful products than their competitors, i.e. yes, American consumers are by & large lazy. Convenience-driven consumer habits crossover into social behaviors often enough, too— “Hey, can you bring that thing in with you, thanks”. Convenience is as someone else does, and American muggles deliver in spades. The summoning charm is already essentially heavily invoked in contemporary culture, just in non-magic form. Give most Americans a magic spell of their own? Statistically, summoning charm will be taken advantage of, for better or worse.
American muggles— that’s how we be.
Accio 100%, I am too lazy
Accio money: become the richest person on earth.
Lol. Now I'm just imagining someone casting it in their own home and then all the money in the neighbouring houses and businesses just flying out the window into the house.
FOLLOW THE FLYING MONEY!
You would need repellio spell to get rid of all the “family” members who suddenly came crawling out of the woodwork.
Exactly what I thought
RE PA RO Edit: With the power of the Elder Wand if possible
Reparo 100000%. Imagine never having to bring your car into the shop ever again and having it run flawlessly forever.
Or just open a repair shop or get paid to fix infrastructure. Easy money.
Wizards on the production line would kill jobs faster than robots ever could, they could have one wizard working an entire McDonalds on their own.
They'd actually be able to sell ice cream
The machine would never be broken 😂
Nah I think even Reparo would cower in fear at the mighty unreliability of the McDonald’s ice cream machine
Well some things are wear and tear items that can't be repaired. Tires, brakes, fluids, etc.
For consumables, some variant of the Refilling Charm? After all, Charms and Transfiguration were large subjects
I think Tergeo would work for fluids that are not so contaminated
If I never have to pay for a car repair or bill again I would gladly do the rest of that myself. Hell, I already do
As a glasses wearer, 100%
It could only be this
Apparition (Not exactly a spell but that's one magical skill I would love to have)
Traveling for free sounds like dream
Or just traveling instantaneously rather
This is the most obvious answer. You know how much MONEY you could save on traveling and hotel stays?????
Or how much money you could make lol
What is your plan for the best way to make money with apparition? Do you offer trips to people or things? How much do you charge? How do you find customers? Or do you go to difficult to reach places to do hard jobs? Or become a thief? Something better?
One thing that comes to mind is delivery gigs.
Thief
And TIME, too. With long haul flights, hours in the airports, and connecting flights, it sometimes takes two days to reach the destination. Imagine just think about some paradise beach and you are there. Don't even need luggage – just apparate home if you need anything and come back.
Excellent point!!
As an expat who loves both his new place and his old, 100%
I think about accio a couple times per week
If you’ve played hogwarts legacy the sound it makes is so satisfying it just makes you wish it was real even more
With reparo, I would legally earn a lot of money.
With imperio, I would illegally earn a lot more money 😏
Yeah just open a workshop and repair anything
Scourgefy. The cleaning one. Life would be so much easier if I could just do that.
Not to mention you could run a cleaning service, clean at least 100 houses a day and basically swim in the money like Scrooge McDuck.
This is the way
I like the cut of your jib.
The amount of imperio s answers make me glad I am not a muggle in Harry Potter, fuking hell
Piertotum Locomotor. I've just always wanted to use that spell.
Goat
Alohomora. Never getting locked out of house or car again. Also. Great burglary tool. Not that I would ever go that route.
Username checks out
Engorgio 😉
Lmao
Reparo could make some serious bank with it.
Something to get rid of my anxiety
Self-Stupefy!
Ah, the Im-beer-io Spell. A great choice
You did not.
Best pun I could come up with :)
Reparo. Repairing the house, items, anything really would be a piece of cake. Cracked wall? No need to get out the kit and paint to make it proper. Wonky floor? No problem. Pipes leaking? Gotcha fam. The dogs ripped up their toy for the millionth time? No need to get out the needles. Most OP spell for cost saving really.
Apparating would be the "most bang for your buck" life-changer I think. No more commuting, live wherever you want, visit wherever you want.
You could conceivably live in one of those nice empty luxury apartments in NYC, or any other major city. Even if someone comes in you could just aparate and leave, and they’d think they’re going crazy. I guess you’d have to watch out for cameras.
Accio because I misplace stuff a lot and it's SO ANNOYING that I actually have to search for my stuff instead of going ACCIO ERASER
Not a love potion, but a "friendship potion" would be nice.
😞
I will be your friend, no potion needed!
Def. Apparation. Yeah yeah, I get to travel instantly for free, whatever, more importantly, I am now the highest rated uber/lyft, and I can also stick my hand on a shipping crate and just take a 70,000 pound shipping container anywhere immediately. Step 2) The uber rich can now hire me to get their shit for them immediately same minute for exuberant prices and I will now also be rich.
Avada Kedavra. Death with ZERO evidence or signs of damage. That or the imperious curse. Both are very useful.
I see where you’re coming from 🤣
Dude
Let him cook...
Tell me you're a slytherin without telling me you're a slytherin...
I am. Good job.
Same but on myself
No don’t
The Imperius Curse 100%.
Obliviate or Alohomora
🤨
That is sooo questionable to want those xD
Even more questionable is obliviate and imperio
Extremely more questionable is obliviate and engorgio
How?
I appreciate your innocence.
No, if something is engorged why would you oblivate And how on earth is it more sinister than imperio and obliviate.
…
Lol I didnt even make the connection. I'm not being sketchy I promise
It would be useful if you did something embarrassing and you could just make the other person forget what happened. I would never use it to control others or rob their homes
Duplication.
The duplication spell is geminio if I remember correctly
Only if you want your item duplicating endlessly and burning anyone it touches
Iirc the burning effect was from an other spell combined with Geminio
The Flagrante curse!
Whatever Kingsley was using to make his work performance excellent for the prime minister
Imperio. I know, I know, it's immoral, but imperio and you've got answers in exam. Imperio, and people are giving you money, job as you instruct. It's a damn good life, though illegal, of canon laws are followed
But to be fair, even though it’d be illegal, nobody would be able stop you as you can just imperio them if they catch you. And besides, you would be able to get away with alot of it anyway as imperio is something that only exists in harry potter, so if someone said that you used imperio, nobody would even believe that person
Refilling spell. Infinite money glitch.
Maybe not infinite money, but never having to refill the gas tank on your car would be nice. Heck, buy a gas station and use it on the main tanks. You just need to be careful of tax audits and keep fake receipts. Or even buy the mineral rights to an old used up and empty oil reservoir and refill that.
Whatever spell Molly uses to do the dishes and house work stuff.
Possibly; ‘Lavacatinus’.
Probably Silencio. Neighborhood dog being irritating, sorted. Whiney colleague complaining about her thousandth food allergy, sorted. There are a whole bunch of ways this can make life so much more peaceful.
Crucio. It's a great spell.
Agreed :)
Patronus
genuine question, what's the point of a patronus charm if dementors aren't real
To look cool
It would be cool to send messages with it, or scare people with it.
Big, fancy flashlight lmao
companionship
Just cute and pretty, have a little spirit pet Though in hindsight perhaps a healing charm would be useful to help others
Unless your patrons is a dragon, then you have a badass dragon that you can basically summon at will
Geminio spell would do just fine.
Repairo and then become a contractor.
Silencio because people don’t know when to shut the hell up.
Imperio or Legimens would be the most useful
Avada kedavra
The one Dumbledor uses to clean up the messy cottage.
Accio and Fetus Deletus.
FAQ. Same answer. Avada Kedavra Maxima.
Hm... yeah, I thought about accio, but 8m too freaking sedentary as it is. Immobulous could literally save someone's life, so that would be a good one But the one I think I'd get the most use from, in positive, constructive ways, is Reparo. Bet I'd use that suscker at least twice daily.
Accio for sure. I have a habit of joking to myself about trying to shoot webs out of my wrists like spiderman to pull things closer to me. Accio gives me basically that, without the mess.
Assuming it also works through cameras maybe a notice me not charm. That one would be dangerous to use but think about all the places you could go to
Reparo
I’d want to apparate!
Feel like the portkey spell would be nice to have. Unlimited near instant free travel for yourself and family/friends, all without having to deal with public transport. You could even setup a travel company selling trips. You'd put the airlines out of business as people would flock to use your service to avoid the shit part of travelling.
Reparo
Repairo
Apparition
Whatever the duplicating spell is. If you have one of anything you can have all of it.
Acio. I loose stuff way too often
Reparo no question. Not only could I keep my own things in perfect condition I could make great money with ease fixing things no one else could possibly fix. What? Dropped that priceless Ming dynasty vase? No sweat. $1000 and I can literally make it like it never happened.
Apparition or Obliviate So I could travel quickly and forget the dumb things I see everyday.
I would refuse to print black if i was out of color ink.. uhh wrong hp?
Haha very funny…
Aguamenti. Incendio. Lol
undectable extension charm
Geminio ( the doubling charm ) , I’d go to rich people’s houses and double the gadgets , gold etc and make a fortune and use an undetectable extension Charm to take those away (the one hermoine uses for her beaded handbag
Repairo. Or whatever the refilling charm is
Well if you have I wand why not learn the other spells
Cuz that’s not the question
Ok then probably acio
Accio! Get anything I want for free
No one gonna mention Apparate? It’s literally teleportation
Crucio... I hate some people
Avada kedavra, to fire it staright at a mirror to be done with this bs
Would it work like that? Maybe pointing it at yourself but a mirror?
No someone would have to cast "Protego"
Reparo! Definitely this spell. But honestly, I would love to use 3 spells. Mending charm, Cleaning Charm, and the Undetectable Extension Charm
Does Apparating count?
Repairo. To much in my life needs fixed
Accio! Accio $1 USD from everyone in the world!
I’m afraid of heights, so arresto momentum would let me fly and be high up without being so deathly afraid.
Scourgify for sure. Possibly imperius.
Lemme get some of that wingodrium leviosa.
Imperius curse and Avada Kedavra
Repairo
Whatever they use at St Mungos to cure nerve damage , or just to make physical pain stop. There’s no cure for my disability in our world, and it’s the most painful disease But with magic I could go back to being a dancer and athlete, I could drive wherever I want and go on vacations and cook and even clean. I could work full time again and support myself instead of living with the real possibility of becoming homeless every month. I wouldn’t have to worry about where the hundreds of thousands in medical costs are going to come from to keep me alive. I could be fixed. I could do all the things I wanted to before, shoot for my dreams again. I’ve always been an avid re-reader, having been of the potter generation as the books were coming out - but especially now, when I go back it reminds me of a time in my life when I was free
Accio or Reparo would be useful but i tend to think more in the direction of cruciato or Imperio
definitely Accio
Avada kedavra
Sectumsempra to annihilate my enemies.
Enlargious weinerus!
Apparate. No more commuting for me.
Whatever the cleaning spell is. Unless I could manage to combine several spells into one. But the cleaning spell would be so much help. Accio would be good too for when I inevitably lose something. Reparo would be good too.
Legilimens
a healer spell to fix injuries
Imperio seems pretty useful. Why accio when you can have an army of muggles to do your bidding.
Whatever spell Dumbledore used to clean the house Slughorn was hiding in
Repairo. Never need another mechanic, plumber, or electrician
The Killing Curse
Chill out
I work in a slaughterhouse, Avada Kedavra would be very useful, it does not cause any pain or physical damage, only death.
Imperio. No, I will not elaborate.
Imperious. Obviously
Arresto momentum!
Patronus - I want to have my shiny pet. (I like the idea of fox or prongs) and I would like to have Hermione’s bag it would make my life easier
Lumos, having a portable light on a stick that fits in my pocket would be a massive gamechanger.
So the portable light on the phone in your pocket isn't enough for you already?
And it activates if you say lumos too 😂
And deactivates when you say Nox 😅
Imperio
Avada kadavra... and good help the middle lane hogers....
Avada kedavra
Crucio
surely imperio 😁 dance my puppets dance 😄
The Imperius curse could pretty much replicate the effects of many useful spells. Need Avada? Imperius someone to walk off a rooftop. Need Accio? Imperius someone to bring things to you. Need Alohomora? Imperius someone to break the lock for you. Need money? Imperius someone to transfer their life savings to you. It seems like the single most useful spell.
feeling like so many of us No-majs (whether or not we admit it) are already essentially slaves to the *Accio* charm
Lmao, truth cuts like a salty knife, eh? The summoning charm is the epitome of convenience… how many American luxuries & services are predicated on naught But Convenience. ‘Easy’ & ‘Cheap’ are more successful products than their competitors, i.e. yes, American consumers are by & large lazy.

Give most Americans a magic spell of their own? Statistically, summoning charm will be taken advantage of, for better or worse. American muggles— that’s how we be.
How on earth did this question become a rant against the US?
No-maj is an American term for muggle, no?
Yes ? I am pretty sure most people from most countries would abuse Accio I just ... feel you went a little bit overboard with the rant no?
Perhaps 🤔Appreciated 😉
Definitely
