Now that you know the basics of the charm, we will have a further look into the more advanced uses of the spell. Aswell as providing light, it also can kill a deadly weed called Devil's Snare. Devil's Snare is a weed that strangles young wizards and witches and the more you struggle to escape from the cursed plant, the tighter is pulls eventually strangling you to death unless you realax or use Lumos. However, Some versions of these plants are more powerful and are dramatically bigger in size meaning you need a more powerful spell to destroy it. This is where the Charm 'Lumos Maxima' comes in. You see, for a more blinding effect, you need a more powerful version of the spell which is what Lumos Maxima is. Lumos Maxima cast the same way as regular Lumos. The only difference is when casting Lumos Maxima, Instead of just saying Lumos while performing the action, you say Lumos Maxima.
