Is WANDLESS / NONVERBAL Magic More POWERFUL? - Harry Potter Theory
About this episode
In the Wizarding World, spells can be cast in many different ways.
With wands. Without wands. Verbally. Nonverbally.
We also know that things like wand loyalty can affect how well a witch or wizard is able to channel his or her magic.
And depending on which combination of these things a wizard uses- nonverbal with a wand, verbal without a wand, verbal with a wand etc. I imagine that we’re going to see some pretty varied results.
So my question today is: Does speaking the spell out loud actually make it stronger? And while we’re at it, I’ll also be diving into whether magic performed with a wand is inherently more powerful than wandless casting.
Let’s dive in to it.
