Speculation about the final battle in book 7 post #1  quote:



Thread open to speculate on the final battle or battles in book 7.

Will Harry defeat Voldemort? If so, will it be with a wand duel, or will there be something special that happens?

I had a really evil idea. Remember that Dumbledore said that Voldemort fears the dead. Too bad Snape's book doesn't tell Harry how to create inferi. That would freak' Voldie out. All these dead people coming at him.

Yeah, let us have the Inferni pile up on that friendly Dark Lord.

Now that Harry can apparate, it would be even more of a match. And with Occlumency, he would be better prepared to face Voldemort.

How about some sort of possession? I have always thought that that might be a way to destroy Voldemort. He is too powerful with a wand. Only Dumbledore was a match for him. And we all know that however powerful Harry might be, he is no Dumbledore, neither in power nor in knowledge.

No but he is full of emotion, something that Voldemort fails to understand. Perhaps Harry will throw him off by a revelation in the duel about poor Merope. Voldemort would be thrown aback at pity or any kind of emotion that was not hate. Harry has to use positive emotions/spells to defeat him. Love made him flee Harry when he possessed him. Hermione may come up with the answer. She is now the brains of the operation so to speak.

Actually, we don't know how smart Harry really is. He has been under threat of death for most of the books. Harry does react quickly in duels if he is not angry that is. He has survived 3 meetings with death eaters so far.

Yeah, but I really doubt he can do all the spells Dumbledore and Voldemort were throwing at each other in Book 5. He is ahead than most, but he is nowhere close to Dumbledore or Voldemort when it comes to knowledge. Even Dumbledore acknowledged that Voldemort is perhaps the most knowledgable wizard alive.

That is true. It would take years for him to learn what they know. Still, sometimes a simple spell can work. Who knows what Harry may put out of the bag. Hell, if it were me, I would get Hermione to use the Prince's book and cook up a whopping load of Felix for my use.

Yeah, it only takes 6 months. I suppose both Hermione and Slughorn should start now.

Well you know that Voldemort never gets around to trying to really kill Harry until May or June, so they have time.

Exactly. Something or the other will keep him delayed.

If harry possesed Voldemort, that would drive him made, and then talk about his mother and family, and loving memories, that might really finish him off. Harry might burn up in the pain though

Now that would be funny. Voldie is too good at Occlumency, but oh what a funny idea.

As I said before I believe that the order of the phoenix will help to train harry before his battle. I think madeye and other aurors will come in handy.

I also think that it is most important for Harry to use wandless magic. Because this gives him the split second edge that he needs, the split second edge that he needed when he tried to use spells on snape at the end of the 6th book.

Imagine what a few weeks of intensive training with Mad Eye would do for him. That man knows how to survive.

I have a suspicion that McGonagall is high on Voldemort's hit list.

I think it would be awesome if Mad eye gave potter lessons. How cool would that be. Maybe if harry's lucky, he'll get a cool eye too!
