For the duration of Drakeharvest, [gamedb item=27664] and [gamedb item=27665] familiars will [b]drop fairly commonly in the Coliseum[/b]. Once the harvest has concluded, they'll go back into hiding, but may run into one or two while [b]foraging[/b]. [gamedb item=52126] and [gamedb item=52127] will also drop from the Coliseum and rarely from all type of gathering activities. A vista and scene have a chance to drop in the coliseum and many other site-related activities.
