For the duration of the event, Baruffio’s Brain Elixir will last 1 hour, as opposed to the usual 30 minutes. 😃

The magnificent OrangeWizard has again made infographics to sum up what we can expect, so here goes:

Good luck with it. Let me know how you do, and as always, if you do nothing else, make sure you pick up the free gift: 1 Silver Key, Ingredients for a Baruffio’s Brain Elixir, and 25 Spell Energy.

Bug?

Hey, nearly four hours in, I've yet to see a single Brilliant Foundable and no Arresto Momentum Foundables either. So far I've seen only thirteen Foundables in that time, which is nuts. Some folks on reddit were saying the same, but not nearly enough, and no acknowledgement from Niantic or Fazes. Are any of you having more luck, or are you experiencing the same?


Also, the first reports of opened 3K portkeys have trickled in: they apparently contain the Trelawney fragment and a measly 300 XP (or, y'know, 600 if you use a Baruffio's). No words. Not sure it's worth stocking up on them to try to make the 10 portkey requirement for the bonus (assuming I ever get Arresto Momentum or Fawkes Foundables to move past step 2 that is... grr.) Let me know how you go. Good luck.


ETA: Correction, there was one cabinet which is an Arresto Momentum Foundable, but that was in the first ten, and so didn't count. Naturally. Meh. Still no changes here.
