Part 2 of the Quidditch Cup Brilliant Event starts Tuesday, 19 May at 11am PT and runs through 26 May. Here's your sneak peek to help you prepare for the tasks. (And as always, if this is too spoilery for you, don't click to open the fold.)

Rewards include 15 green Restricted Section Books, 3 red Spell Books, 2 silver keys, 50 gold, one Dark Detector, a Baruffio's, a Potent Exstimulo, a Strong Exstimulo, a Unicorn Hair, Exstimulo and Baruffio's Potions ingredients and 40 Energy.
Task 3: Requires us to pick up 7 Ingredients or Portmanteaus. This will be difficult for some of us, because we can't force things to spawn. Unless! If you've unlocked your Portkeys and keep them in your vault, using them at this stage of the game will cause Portmanteaus to spawn on the map. If you know you're in an area with few spawns, that's probably the best thing you can do.
In Task 4, we'll need 2 TFTD. Other than that, this event doesn't require us to brew or quaff any potions, except for 3 further TFTD for the Bonus Tasks, but a Baruffio's will help you meet the XP requirements, particularly for the Bonus.
To prepare:
* If you are having difficulty getting energy, start saving up now. (Or be prepared to pay for it.)
* If you don't have spawns occurring where you are, you'll need more TFTD. (With Masters' Notes, they brew quickly now, and the ingredients are still somewhat boosted on the map.)
If you're conserving energy:
* try to put off returning the Brilliant Quidditch Fan Lunas until Task 3. You need 15 total to complete the registry page, and ten of those alone in Task 3. Save the rest of the Lunas and the Bludgers for the Bonus assignment, which requires you to return 30 Brilliant Foundables total.
* brew as many Exstimulos of varying strengths as you can to make your energy go further.
Once you pick up your freebies, you'll still need ingredients for at least one Tonic For Trace Detection. If you include the Bonus Assignments, you'll need a total of five TFTD. Brew accordingly.
A listing of the Flipendo Foundables follows bellow. They are boosted for this event, especially when you use a TFTD.

Here is where you can find the Brilliant Foundables on the Event Registry page:

Note that you'll need to get the Brilliant Quidditch Fan Professor McGonagall Fragments from Fortresses.
Brilliant Portkeys for this event have once again been reduced to 1.5km! As a reminder, Part 1 Portkeys will give you part 1 rewards anytime you open them, so you need to pick up the ones you'll need in order to get the Fragments for your registries during *this* event. As in the past, you don't have to unlock them now, as long as they are in your inventory, you can buy yourself some time.
Once again, there's a Bonus Assignment after the main tasks are completed. Make sure to look for these in-game.

Rewards include 5 red Spell Books (!!), 3 Silver Keys, 2 Dark Detectors, 1 Potent Exstimulo, 1 Dawdle Draught and 30 Energy.
As usual, there will be freebies and bundles.

I hope this helps you get ready. If you do nothing else, don’t forget to pick up your free TFTD ingredients and 50 Spell Energy. And make sure you've downloaded your assets.
Stay safe and stay well. ❤️
