It would, however, have mattered in the Great Hall. The only thing that protected Harry there was the fact that the Elder Wand would not work against him, and if Voldemort had used his own wand, there’s a good chance his Killing Curse would have bested Harry’s Expelliarmus, and Harry would have been killed—properly, this time. | |
| May 15, 2015 at 20:43 | comment | added | Janus Bahs Jacquet | I have to say, I disagree with the last paragraph in this answer. The Elder Wand did attack Harry fully in the Forest and did kill him, as much as any Killing Curse could possibly have killed him. King’s Cross was as dead as Harry could get at that point, at least at Voldemort’s hands (regardless of wand). The fact that Harry wanted it to attack him fully is probably why it did, though, which is where the Forest differs from the Great Hall: there he knew he was master of it and had no intention of dying or letting himself be killed. | |
| Mar 30, 2015 at 1:21 | comment | added | JMFB | I can't believe this answer got 12 upvotes. Read my answer below. Killing has nothing to do with mastery or the "winning" of a wand. And in several other instances VM did try to kill Harry with another wand (his own, Lucious's, etc.) and his spells wouldn't work. So what you said there was incorrect as well. There are a lot of plot holes in HP that simply cannot be answered. | |
