First Year at Hogwarts Brilliant Event - Part 1 - Many issues.

Not sure if it is only us but me and my family are having multiple issues with this event.
- Low spawn rate of brilliant foundables even when using trace detection potion or dark detectors. Making it difficult to play from home and even when we decided to go out (responsibly and staying in vehicle) spawn rates were low at inns and fortresses.
- Runestones for this event are difficult to gather due to lack of foundables and yield very few Gringots images when used. Having run out of runestones and struggling to complete registry.
- Foundable difficulty also seems much higher and frequently require use of potions to successfully overpower them.
These issues make this event difficult to complete and I am not even at stage 4, making me worry I will not be able to complete it let alone attempt the bonus objectives with 1 day left.

Portkeys were also few and far between on the map.
I had all the same issues. I am not sure if this was deliberate, to make things “more challenging “ or a glitch. I have read a LOT of complaints about this event.
I think it is just random. I have had loads of portkeys spawning. In fact, I am on my third set of brilliant portkeys (I collect them in sets of five) and have left many untouched because I had no space for a full set.
Also experienced these issues and had low spawns, difficulty gathering runestones and getting the Gringots image. Portkeys was ok however. Registry had some glitches too with placing images and seen many complaints about this event. Not sure if it was to make it harder to achieve or bug related. Let’s hope this gets checked and the second one better!
Never happened to me before my entire wizards unite career: I failed completing the quest line. Not only the bonus quests but even stage 4/4. So now I have a white gap on my foundables page for a not returned foundable. Unfortunately the brilliant goblin just didn't want to spawn 10 times after I got that quest. Plenty of monster books though.
Will there ever be the chance to get this one or do I have to continue living with the knowledge of how disgrateful I failed?
@Goldenboss usually with two part brilliant events they include both part 2 foundables and the ones from the previous week so you can get them then if they spawn enough of course
Thanks @CBG92 . That was something I even knew since I am playing for about one year. But I meant the foundable that you get by fulfilling 4/4 quests. Since I didn't finish the questline, I didn't get the last foundable. :S
@Goldenboss that's a bummer to hear that, I'm sorry! I do wish there were more ways to earn brilliant stickers honestly. So much depends on these two monthly events so if you even miss one you're out of luck, but I guess that's the point. *sigh*
Yeah, bummer... Well, okay. So this will probably be the only unfinished page for now. I hope sooner or later I will have the chance to complete it. It's a pity, indeed.
And yes... Sometimes these brilliant events are even tough and if the time is not right, it will be difficult to finish the questline.
My issue the Hogwarts spawns are non existent. Everything spawns but the needed Hogwarts. I just used another tonic still nothing. Just had surgery today and restricted to bed, can't finished event two, this is getting ridiculous
I agree. Im finally on part 4... and we are supposed to get fragments from brilliant event spawns.... Found 15 brilliant foundables... not 1 fragment. How are supposed to do event?
@Fireyswan The Mysterious Note Pieces only drop from part 1 Brilliant Foundables (Brilliant Bogrod (goblin) and Brilliant Monster Book of Monsters). They’re not 100% drop rate either unfortunately.
Lola has already mentioned that they’re investigating this.
