Uncommon Dark Wizards?

Part Four of the tasks for the special event requires you to defeat 3 Common Dark Wizards in Fortresses. The problem isn't beating them, it's running into them in the first place. So save those runestones, witches, I've got an idea for you...

Ruins I-III will apparently give you the best odds, because at level IV you start to get formidable foes showing up. It's very likely at Ruins I you'll get 2 common enemies. (There is a small chance of just getting one formidable.) Aurors have a greater chance of encountering them, so temporarily switch your profession to Auror (if you weren't one to begin with). They're twice as likely to encounter a Dark Forces enemy than the other professions, so each enemy you encounter has about a 1 in 4 chance of being a Common Dark Wizard, which are the best odds you'll get. There's no need to use any scrolls, just rely on the base stats, and you should be fine. šŸ€

Happy hexing!

Thanks for the tips! Helped me out.


Also realized from some of the fragments i got that it might be worth doing lower levels sometimes just for that.

I’m still missing portkey fragments, etc, but I got all the snitches (and caught up on Hedwigs & Harrys) and completed the tasks, so that was good enough for me 😁

That auror tip was much appreciated! I have heaps of rune stones, but not enough energy and inns nearby to go through them all šŸ˜… šŸ’™
