Brilliant Event Tasks

So these are just the tasks for the second week of the Potter’s Calamity Brilliant Event. Like the previous week for Potter’s Calamity, the quest line is split into four sections. You have to complete each section before progressing to the next one.

Potter’s Calamity 1

The first section is easy to complete. I’d recommend having a Portkey close to unlocking by the start of the event.

Pick Up 5 Ingredients or Portmanteaus 10 Brilliant Family XP Dine at Inns 2 times 10 Brilliant Family XP Return 5 Medium-Threat Foundables 15 Brilliant Family XP

Section 1 Rewards:

20 Brilliant Family XP

2 Restricted Section Books

Potter’s Calamity 2

The second section is also reasonably easy to complete. It really comes down to effort.

Section 2 Rewards:

2 Potent Exstimulo Potions

2 Restricted Section Books

1 DMLE Badge Fragment

Ornate Harry Frame

Potter’s Calamity 3

The third section is a bit of a challenge, especially if you live in a rural area without many Traces. You might need to use Dark Detectors to complete these tasks.

Return 4 High Threat Foundables 500 XP Return 3 Brilliant Golden Snitch Fragments 500 XP Return 4 Dark Arts Family Foundables 15 Brilliant Family XP

Section 3 Rewards:

25 Brilliant Family XP

Brilliant Foundables and Where to Find Them

Unlike the previous Brilliant Event, you will only be able to encounter one of these Brilliant Foundables in the wild. The others can be found through Fortress Challenges, special 7k Portkeys, and event tasks.

Brilliant Where to find it Fragments to collect Golden Snitch Wild Encounter 12 DMLE Badge Section 2 Event Task Reward 1 London Five Photograph Section 3 Event Task Reward 1 Framed Family Photo (Ginny, Albus, James, Lily) Section 4 Event Task Reward 1

Hogwarts Heroes Daily Prophet Use a Brilliant Runestone in Fortress Challenges 3 Harry’s Ministry ID Card Unlock 7km Portkey Portmanteau 3

Tips to Complete the Brilliant Event

With two Potter’s Calamity Brilliant Events as well as a Community Day all back to back to back, we want to provide you with as many tips as possible to maximize your efforts.

Keep your Ingredients stocked so you can easily brew potions in the fourth section. Choose 2-hour potions to complete this task more quickly.

Save 2k Portmanteaus to open on the second chapter. Again, this will speed up the completion of the overall event.

If you’re having trouble finding High Threat Foundables, use Dark Detectors on Inns.

7k Portmanteaus can still be opened after the Brilliant Event ends, BUT if you unlock it after the next Brilliant Event begins, you’ll receive different rewards. Unlock your Portkeys wisely!

If you’re trying to find Brilliant Foundables or specific Family Foundables, do not play in an area with a Family Flag. Traces will be more diverse in an area not marked by a Flag.

Save your Scrolls and your Restricted Section Books until the end of the event. Then use our guide to spend them wisely!
