Yeah, what’s the deal with the “return 6 Gringotts gold” from the bonus assignments (from Ironbelly adversary battles?) I’ve done maybe 6 ironbelly encounters today and I’ve yet to get the gold drop. Bleah.

@SolyaTusei It took several Adversaries chains for me. Once I got the 6 mummies, I just defeat the first guard and flee. It saved me a lot of spell energy. Still working on getting the last one but I have a day and a half to complete the bonus assignment. Good luck!
I second what @Djea wrote about only defeating the first guard. I do this often with Adversary events. I'm very selective on when to even engage the second guard and the Adversary itself.
You need to be in an area with a fair amount of spawns, but I see a lot of dark marks in the wild during these events. If I flee after the first guard, there is ofen another dark mark to grab and go with.
I feel like you actually get more chances this way and use a LOT fewer resources. Adversary events can be a real resource hog if you defeat every chain you encounter all the way through. It's really not necessary.
I just completed the event and bonus tasks with this approach a few minutes ago.
Thanks @Djea and @Not4u13 . I’ve actually been doing the “flee after 1st in chain” (prior to seeing your suggestions) and have done maybe 9 ironbelly chains since last night and nevertheless I still 2 gold remaining to collect. I guess it’s just [bad] luck! Oh well
I have now done 13 ironbelly adversary encounters since I got the bonus assignment, but have only gotten 2 Gringots Gold. I have placed the dragon twice during this event, but have only had 4 of the Gringots Gold (I know because I started the event needing 6 to prestige the page). This depends on luck, and given the resources these Adversary events consume, I can't imagine that the majority of players are willing to put in the time and treasure to get what is looking like at least 40 Ironbelly along with who knows how many others to complete the bonus assignment.
I am quickly losing enthusiasm and patience. There is definitely something wrong with the percentages.
Annoyingly unable to complete because none of my progress has counted. Just completed a Dark Chamber and not only did it not register the completion or the XP gained on the event page. It did not register that I had completed a Wizard Challenge on my daily challenges.
This has been an issue for a couple of events now and I've only been able to complete them by doing extras so they register.
@SolyaTusei : Actually, assuming that the 4 non dragon fragments have the same drop rate, getting 2 out of 9 isn't bad luck, but rather pretty average. On average, you'd need 24 opponents (either from doing 24 chains fleeing after the first, or doing 8 complete chains) to get the 6 gold. And then luck or the lack thereof factors in, you might be done after 20 or less, but you could also need 30 or more.
IMO, the "flee after first oppenent" thing is only a good idea if you know that you will encounter tons of that very adversary.
So far I have only encountered a single Ironbelly. But then I made some progress towards getting Peter Pettigrew and Gilderoy to silver, so...
Is this just me? I've fought over 20 opponents but not a single Gringotts Gold. This same thing happened during other adversary events. Seems to be more then just bad RNG. I do have earned Gringotts Gold before the event, it just seems to block it during.

Fix the crashes
I can't complete if it keeps crashing.
Fix the fortresses so people stop wasting their potions and energy and can actually complete this. Ridiculous.

Could this annoying bug get sorted asap
