The brand new Brilliant Event in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is going to be adorable! July will be focusing on Baby Beasts throughout the first and second parts of this Brilliant Event. After last month’s intense story update (and simultaneously frustrating and mystifying conclusion), I am curious to see what the Calamity is cooking up with these tiny critters.

Brilliant Event Tasks
The tasks for Brilliant Events seem to be on a fairly regular rotation. The only “hold up” I can foresee comes in the brewing Tasks, which can easily be prepared for, and a new task I have never seen before, which I will discuss at Quest Step 4!
Baby Beasts Quest 1/4
I prefer to brew Potions in advance of the event (the night before the event begins) then collect them when the required step shows up! Since you need to brew 1 Tonic here and 3 more Potions in Step 2, try to brew ALL the necessary Potions the night before so you don’t have to wait too long to collect!
| Brew 1 Tonic for Trace Detection | 2 Leaping Toadstool |
| Collect Ingredients or Portmanteaus 2 Times | 1 Powdered Dragon Claw |
| Return 7 Brilliant Baby Norwegian Ridgeback Dragon Foundables | 1 Strong Exstimulo Potion |
1st Quest Rewards
- 550 Wizarding XP
- 2 Restricted Section Books
- 50 Brilliant Family XP
- 1 Dark Detector
- 10 Spell Energy
Baby Beasts Quest 2/4
As stated before Step 1, make sure to brew overnight so your progress isn’t stopped by waiting for Potions! Use a Tonic For Trace Detection to reap the rewards from the boosted Care of Magical Creatures Traces and you will breeze right by this step!
| Return 7 Care of Magical Creatures Foundables | 1 Erumpent Horn |
| Brew Potions 3 Times | 1 Tonic for Trace Detection Potion |
| Collect Any 15 Fragments | 1 Silver Key |
2nd Quest Rewards
- 750 Wizarding XP
- 75 Brilliant Family XP
- 3 Restricted Section Books
- 1 Brilliant Baby Crup Registry Image
- 10 Spell Energy
One Year Later Quest 3/4
Easy as pie! Use Baruffio’s Brain Elixir and Tonic for Trace Detection in high density areas for points of interest (POIs) in-game IF your local rules and regulations are allowing you to move around outside. See if you can advance another level!
| Use Baruffio’s Brain Elixir 1 Time | 6 Baneberry Potion Ingredients |
| Use Tonic for Trace Detection 2 Times | 1 Strong Exstimulo Potion |
| Return 10 Brilliant Baby Niffler Foundables | 1 Silver Key |
3rd Quest Rewards
- 1250 Wizarding XP
- 75 Brilliant Family XP
- 5 Restricted Section Books
- 10 Spell Energy
Baby Beasts Quest 4/4
This fourth and final step is a unique one. As I mentioned before, it will take some careful navigation to make this step work quickly. My advice is to not place any images for the Brilliant Registry page until you reach step 4! It is likely you will have met the requirements for placing images fairly easily as the Brilliant spawns are always hogging the Map during Brilliant Events.
However, the easiest and quickest way to get to the Bonus Assignment is by being patient and holding out until you reach this step! Otherwise, you will be forced to re-grind those Brilliant Foundables and place images all over again.
| Earn 300 Care of Magical Creatures Family XP | 1 Spell Book |
| Place 3 Images on Brilliant Hagrid’s Hut Interior Registry Page | 1 Spell Book |
| Return 7 High Threat Foundables (Or Better) | 1 Spell Book |
4th Quest Rewards
- 5 Restricted Section Books
- 50 Gold
- 1 Brilliant Baby Knarl Registry Image
- 30 Spell Energy
Baby Beasts BONUS Assignment!
Unfortunately there are no upgrades to Vault capacity this time. There are some valuable Potions thrown into the mix, though! I am (obviously) looking forward to working on my Professions more in the coming days so all of the Spell Books make me happy! Simply playing the game and potentially joining forces with fellow witches and wizards on the Knight Bus should make life easy for you!
| Earn 10000 Wizarding XP | 1 Spell Book |
| Return 45 Brilliant Baby Beast Foundables | 1 Spell Book |
| Defeat Highest Chamber Unlocked | 1 Spell Book |
| Return 15 Care of Magical Creatures Foundables | 1 Dawdle Draught |

Tips to Complete the Brilliant Event
If this is your first Brilliant Event, these tips will help you complete the Brilliant Event before the time runs out. With careful planning, you can complete the Bonus Assignment as well!
- As a reminder, Part 1 Portkeys will give you Part 1 Rewards anytime you open them, even if you wait to open them during Part 2. Brilliant Portkeys will glow purple on the Map. Be sure to collect 5 Portkeys during the Brilliant Event, even if you don’t open them all during the event.
- However, if you’re nervous about finding enough time to walk, you can also collect the Portkey Brilliant Foundable by finishing the entire Bonus Assignment.
- To find the Brilliant Augurey, you must do Wizarding Challenges with the specific Brilliant Event Runestones. To minimize your Spell Energy, stick with the Ruins Chambers. It might take a few extra Wizarding Challenges to get the 3 Foundables you need, but you’ll be able to do so quickly, without expending too many resources.
- If you decide to visit Inns, Fortresses, or Greenhouses during this event, continue to practice social distancing. Check out our previous article on staying safe while playing Wizards Unite.
- Save your Scrolls and your Restricted Section Books until the end of the event. Then use our guide to spend them wisely! That said, most Aurors and Magizoologists have already earned all the necessary Restricted Section Books, and many Professors have also done so. At this point, you can either hold on to your resources in case they’re needed for the next lesson plan, or you can start working on a second profession. That is a personal decision, and I don’t have any advanced knowledge on what the next lesson plan will look like.
Brilliant Event Bundles
There are 4 bundles total that will be available during this event. Be sure to snag the Free Bundle as soon as the event starts! The Bonus Bundle will not be available until the Bonus Assignment is unlocked, so keep that in mind.

You can also find a link here to a discussion for a Bundle Value Calculator that community genius Andolov (along with several other community members) has put together to determine the overall value of bundles in the game. By attributing monetary value to just about everything in the game, he has been able to calculate whether or not we get a good deal!
