The Battle for Secrecy Brilliant Event Part 2

The Battle for Secrecy Quest 1/4

Collecting Ingredients, Portmanteaus, or Spell Energy is pretty straightforward.

Use a Tonic for Trace Detection to find enough Brilliant Traces.

While the final task is worded to return Foundables, lately that task has been the same as recovering Fragments. If this holds true, you use a Trace Charm to earn additional Fragments and can therefore complete the task more quickly.

The Battle for Secrecy BONUS Assignment!

Make sure you wait until the Bonus Assignment task list appears to place the Brilliant Ron Weasley’s Radio Registry Image you just earned.

You’ll likely have more Images ready to place too, but if not, you’ll get them soon enough if you use another Tonic for Trace Detection to help you find the 15 Legends of Hogwarts Foundables needed in the Bonus Assignment. Just return all of the Brilliant Foundables that appear.

To earn 7,500 Wizarding XP quickly, once again, drink a Brain Elixir. Wait until you’re on the Bonus Assignment to open some Gifts, prioritizing any Extravagant Gifts and others with high Wizarding XP. This task is a smaller amount of XP than usual, and Brain Elixirs are giving triple XP, so this task is easy.

Most Wizards Unite events, including Brilliant Events, will be easier to complete if you work on your SOS Training. Unlock as many of these nodes as you can!

With a more potent Baruffio’s Brain Elixir, you can earn Wizarding XP more quickly.

With reduced brewing times for Exstimulo Potions and Healing Potions, you can complete Master Notes tasks more quickly. You can also brew Potions more quickly.

With more Traces revealed by Tonic for Trace Detection, you can more quickly find Brilliant Traces, as well as the necessary Legends of Hogwarts Foundables. This will help you complete tasks.

According to my notes, the event bundles have reverted back to the usual deals, which aren’t worth your Gold. Of course, if you have 20,000+ Gold you’re just dying to spend, you might as well spend it now. There’s also the possibility the bundles will be better in-game than what is listed in my notes.

What do you think of this event? How do you feel about the story ending? What predictions do you have for how everything will wrap up for the Golden Trio and Constance?

Personal Update

If you aren’t on Twitter (or Discord), you might have missed this.

Brita here. I'm having surgery tomorrow, and I'll be in the hospital for several days. I will be unable to post any #WizardsUnite updates during this time. Please follow @Xpecto_GO for game news.

On December 2, 2021, I had a small bowel resection. While this is common surgery for people who have Crohn’s Disease, it’s still major surgery. I was in the hospital for 5 days, and it took another week at home before I started feeling somewhat human again. Even now, 3 weeks after my surgery, I’m still experiencing pain and limited mobility.

Thank you to everyone who has already reached out and wished me a speedy recovery. I’m doing a lot better already, but full recovery takes 6-8 weeks.

When I scheduled my surgery, I had no idea Wizards Unite would be ending. Obviously I need to put my health first, but it’s been so hard for me to rest this month, when all I want to do is create Wizards Unite content and do livestreams.

Hopefully I can do more in January to finish this bittersweet journey with all of you.

If you would like to help me transition to new creative work in February, please fill out this brief form. Only 2 questions are mandatory, and they are multiple choice.
