According to those affected, the update to version 2.18.0 causes a large number of foes in wizarding challenges when using Revealed Runestones.

The only way to avoid this issue is if all players don’t use their stones as then, and only then, will the players have the normal number of foes.

These reports have been brought forward by affected gamers and this foes bug has now been officially acknowledged by the makers of Harry Potter Wizards Unite.

In the recently published Harry Potter: Wizards Unite version 2.18.0 known issues post on the community forum, the game makers list this as one of the known ailments of the release.

A suggested workaround to this problem is to only use the Runestone in the lower chambers and to collect the Petrified Hermione Granger fragments.
