Deek presents the Phoenix Rising quest in the Room of Requirement, and the required level for this quest is 20. We got this quest after winter started at Hogwarts, so you will need to progress in the main storyline considerably to get this quest. Check your Owl Post for Professor Weasley's letters, and visit the Room of Requirement when you get it. Interact with Deek to learn about the magical bird, nesting somewhere south in the Poisear Coast Region.

The Phoenix Mountain Cave is located in the southern area of the map in the Poidsear Coast region. Check the yellow circle on the map image above to see the exact location of Phoenix Mountain Cave, and you can use the broom or mount to fly to this region. The Cave is filled with Poachers, and you'll have to eliminate them to get to reach the peak of the mountain.

After entering the cave, you need to follow the path on the right-hand side and navigate forward. You will need to climb up to get to the interior of the cave, but before that check the hole on the right, and you'll find a path blocked by spider webs and stones. Use Confringo or Incendio to clear through the webs, and Depulso to break through the stone barrier.

Get inside and you'll find another set of spider webs along with a Venomous Ambusher. Eliminate the spider and burn the webs with the fire spells mentioned above. Here you'll find a Collections Chest behind the Venomous Ambusher spider.

Return to the entrance of this area, and continue inside the cave. This is where you will come across the first set of Poachers inside the cave. Use any of the spell combinations you want to defeat the Poachers and go ahead to the next area of the cave. Keep in mind that there is a hidden chest here that you can collect by entering a blocked pathway. We have highlighted how you can get this chest below.

On the way to the next room to fight the second set of Poachers, you'll find a couple of treasure bags. Collect them quickly and proceed to the next room in the cave. At the entrance of this room, you'll find a stone platform on the right-hand side, you can jump on this platform to isolate the enemies easily. Check the arrow on the image above to see where this platform is located.

There will be Poacher Animagus in this room, along with a few other enemies. There are also red barrels placed around this room which you can use to blast the enemies. For the Poacher Animagus, we recommend turning it into human form with the Transformation spell if the Duelling Feats appear in your challenges.

After fighting the second set of Poachers, you'll come across a locked door. Unlock it and enter through the door to spot the Phoenix inside the cave. There is a treasure bag on the left-hand side of the room, collect it quickly, and then take the ladder on the right-hand side of the room to go to the next area.

Climb the ladders and you will come across a door with a level three lock, and inside there is another chest. You need to upgrade the Alohomora spell to unlock this door. You can return to this area after learning the spell to unlock this level three lock later on.

During the Phoenix Rising quest, you'll find several chests inside the cave. Some of these chests are located in tricky spots, so you must navigate around the areas by using different spells to get them. While exploring the cave, you will find a few bags placed in areas that are out of reach. To get these bags, you can use Accio to bring them closer to your character. Here are some of the hidden chests you'll find in the Phoenix Mountain Cave.

Before entering the first room with Poacher enemies, you'll notice a chest on the left-hand side of the passageway. The path to the chest is blocked, and you need to find an alternative route. Defeat the Poachers and head down to the central part of this room.
