    There was a typo in the original post.

    It should be:

    • Guaranteed Knight Bus Fragment from Forest Chamber III
    • A special 1km Portmanteau that rewards the Ministry Visitor's Entrance.

    @AltarielValice I've already completed the com day. I just think that a new player can't possibly complete this. If you've just started you have no potions. You've got almost no spell energy and it's almost impossible to get to fortress III rooms.

    So this com day is for players that have been playing for a certain amount of time.

    Look at PoGo: If you're a new player you can immediately join in the com day. That's the purpose of a community day, Invite people to experience your game and draw them in. If i was a new player, I wouldn't feel welcome with this kind of community day.

    i get the portkey to chamber swap (though annyoing that i collected that many portkeys i don't need).


    But WHY am i getting knight bus fragments from DARK III?


    Been trying to complete the thunderbird challenge for an hour and just keep getting knight bus fragments.


    i'm so tired of the constant bugs during every event

    @toaojjc does it really matter which fragment gets dropped from the Forest Chamber III as long as it completes the requirement. Besides, sometimes they make changes from what were

    announced in advance. I walked after midnight last night, and found that the special 'Knight Bus' portkeys rewards us with the Ministry of Magic Ministry Visitor's Entrance fragments.


    I was experiencing difficulties last night with all the POIs and the Knight Bus gone from the map (but the streets were the same as what is on my neighborhood). It took me a few turning the game off and on a few times before I was able to have them all back. That's why I decided not to experiment and see if playing lower chambers will enable me to complete the special assignment. I used up more than 40 potions completing the fortress challenges requirements but was so happy about completing the special assignment (before 5:30 am) that I didn't mind the cost in potions at all. I had to play in Ruins Chamber IV several times to calm down enough to get some sleep.


    Thank you very much@HPWUTeam for this event. I had fun, and the Knight Bus portkey is so cool. Please help me with the POIs and Knight Bus disappearing again. At least let me have the spell energy, ingredients and traces back in the map. Maybe, I should uninstall and reinstall the HPWU game after my walk this morning. I was hoping it was fixed when I was able to play the Knight Bus at dawn.

    Sad that the portkey/forest chamber 111 rewards got mixed up, I was looking forward to getting my Knight bus page to gold so filled up my portkey slots thinking that's what we'd get.

    I do like the occasional switch of community days to focus on fortress challenges rather than foundables on the map though :)

    Don't know how to quote anyone, so that works too. @Djea the fragment does matter if you're looking for a specific one to level up a page. I may complete the event, but if that was the only foundable I needed to finish a page, I'd be frustrated wasting extra resources to get it and not having it appear as stated.

    @Djea It does matter what fragment if you're selectively playing for a specific goal, like to prestige a page. I was happy to see that, according to the "original" posting, the Knight Bus was coming from the special portkey. I needed just 2 of them to prestige my page. After I walked off what I though would get what I needed only to find out that it wasn't the case.


    I'm not playing to complete this event; I hate playing the higher chambers and do it only for specific rewards.

    @toaojjc highly doubt that's possible considering that the event is already live.

    As some feedback, I really enjoyed this one. It wasn’t aimed at new players as someone else mentioned, but it let me get lots of wand fragments and rewards.


    Maybe that’s not a problem though? I would say that the Brilliant Events are usually “entry level”, Community Day are usually “casual player level” and then Adversaries for “higher level” players.


    I’m only level 47, but I need those DADA books, so I’ll be doing plenty of Adversaries whilst downing healing potions.

    Although it was resource (and time) intensive, I enjoyed this month's CD and made a lot of progress - restarred the Murtlap and Fountain of Magic Brethren and starred the Occamy. There were plenty of spell energy and ingredients on the map and the reduced brew time we unlocked from the Dragons event was clutch - was able to rebuild my potions supply overnight. So overall a great event.


    Two things I wasn't so thrilled about - it stunk that the guaranteed foundables made it so they couldn't be found in other chambers at all. Like, I need many more Thunderbirds to star it but didn't realize until several challenges in that the ONLY way to find it yesterday was through Dark Chamber III. That hasn't been the case in some recent challenge-focused events, and I wish that would change back for future events.


    Additionally, the free store pack wasn't tailored to the event - why did we get TTD ingredients for a CD focused solely on challenges? Some potions or Extimulo ingredients would have been nice!

    @EPHedwig you forgot to add 'potent' to 'exstimulo ingredients' because we use that in the Dark Chamber challenges. 🤔 I'm pretty sure that some people would appreciate more unicorn hair.

    @Djea I wish there was a way to gift specific ingredients in your inventory because I always get a ton of Unicorn hairs from portkeys and end up having to delete some to save room in my inventory. Have 100 stockpiled now! I generally use Strong Estimulo Potions anyway except the final Adversaries.

    @EPHedwig I was not talking about me; I have a lot of unicorn hairs from portkeys. I was talking about other people who are not as lucky as I am. And I do use Potent Exstimulo Potions in Dark Chamber 5, especially with werewolves and Dark Wizards.
