Today's "haul" was a lot more successful than yesterday's. I saw/got:
Hagrid (he left)
Fawkes
Dumbledore 🤩 (my first ever! luckily I used a dawdle draught immediately)
Godric Gryffindor
Quidditch fan Luna and Neville
I'm currently at one of the largest ski centers in Finland and I was a bit surprised how low the rate of foundables spawning was even with the trace detection tonic active. There are plenty of inns,greenhouses and fortresses but very few foundables near them.
(I kinda had a vague theory that rare foundables appear after midnight in my area. I maybe right as the Brilliant event start time was pushed to 12:30 AM instead of the usual 11:30 PM (the special events page didn’t let that on) I had to stay out a bit late and on my way walking back, I got a philosopher’s stone in an area I frequent frequent. But then again, a police patrol car also stopped by me to yell at me for being out so late. So. Erm.
@LeFayeofAlbion congrats on Firenze and the philosopher's stone! Although, too bad about the cop... Did you show them the game and recruit them to start playing?? :-)
only had time today to fulfill basic daily assignments
but got cursed opal necklace (5/15) from using level 4 Mysterious Artefact runestone and also a Veil (2/11) when my 5k portkey (ollivander’s) opened up.
not bad since i usually mutter something not fit for posting when i see a 5k is what i picked up.
still have to take 1 potion, so i will wait until dusk and try to get more 2 leprechauns to place that image, with help from trace detection tonic

in addition to grrrrrinding in Community Day sponsored fortress to get enough guaranteed drops of fortress fragments to place: horned serpent egg; thunderbird; occamy; sword of gryffindor ...
i took a dawdle draught and a strong exstimulo potion. it tried to depart on my 1st spellcast but departure denied (fist pump) and i succeeded on the 3rd spellcast, so all in all a good potions investment for me this time.
when bucky did his little bow of the head before returning to hagrid’s hut, i practically had tears in my eyes.
@kiheikid that seems to be the case for many of the brilliant foundables. It took me a long while before I first came across the normal sorting hat after the brilliant event.

congratulations @Hallanen
especially for your 1st dumbledore (i am still waiting for my 1st)
I am liking the dark detector boost. Thanks @HPWUTeam!
I ended up getting a few of the more elusive ones when I tried today, including the sorting hat, Weasley’s flying car, Graves and Grawp.
I finally placed Grawp as well with today’s fragment. 😊
Swooping evil, woohoo! Only seven more to go... 😂😂
tank of brains 10/11
and
professor mcgonagall 6/15
i hope we all have the same kind of results as @XpectoGO had with the now boosted dark detectors

I finally got my first ever Firenze yesterday!

@LeFayeofAlbion congrats on Firenze! But why would a policeman yell at you? Is there curfew? Is your air finally breathable again?

finally got my first Whomping Willow. Also got Fawkes, Mountain Troll and Parvati Patil.
Well done @Hallanen !! The whomping willow is amazing!
Awesome work! @LeFayeofAlbion & @Hallanen
dark detectors and trace detection sure help a lot. Today's haul:
@Hallanen That’s one almighty haul. Congratulations!
Wow @Hallanen great catches!!
great haul @Hallanen

I finally found my first Quidditch Harry.
Just McGonagall & Dumbledore to find now.
Another time turner.... 😂 if only I could prestige that page. Oh well, the xp was great.

also got from traces today:
bucky !!
i took a dawdle draught and a strong exstimulo potion. it tried to depart on my 1st spellcast but departure denied (fist pump) and i succeeded on the 3rd spellcast, so all in all a good potions investment for me this time.

@kiheikid that’s awesome. Congrats on the great finds. Also Buckbeak’s animation is one of my favourites, a great one to come by. 😊
thank you, @Imaginatio
who would have thought regular buckbeak would be so hard to find in traces, after all those brilliant buckbeaks ?
@kiheikid that seems to be the case for many of the brilliant foundables. It took me a long while before I first came across the normal sorting hat after the brilliant event.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
(full of doxies)
But I have promises to keep,
(promise to nail those doxies)
And miles to go before I sleep,
(99 more doxies)
And miles to go before I sleep.
(yup, 99)
@kiheikid Ninety-nine Doxies 👀😱👀🤪👀😂
... just eating that elephant, one bite at a time ...
Congrats @kiheikid on getting to that page! At least that doxy ain't one!
