I was going to do the same for force... but all I have is an after. So I'll do one for tomorrows keep. 

Starting out. 

i

20 runs later 

i

i  got  13  superior  force  potions  one  right  after  the  next  in  a  row  so  either  Im  lucky  or  the  rates  are  good  

I dont run potion keeps anymore since I get so many from 4 clan boss chest and doomtower. Makes it easy :)

Clan boss loves to give me potions. I also very seldom run potion keeps. I think I did a couple weeks ago for the first time in months because I was low on arcane or magic.

Everyone talks about CB rewards and all they say is shard/book.  You see one superior potion per transcendent and it's bla.  

In November, 30 days, just from CB I got 569 greater and 56 superior potions, 796 brews, 4.5 Million silver, 640 gems.  That's almost 1/2 again as many as you can get from a fully upgraded mine in the same time (450).

I do open 6 chests (Brutal averages 14 brews a day along with a bit of silver/gems/pots and I have the spare key).

 Was something changed in the drop rates? I've been farming Dragon 16 and noticed I'm getting silver instead of an artifact/brew/shard at a pretty high frequency. 

 Since I posted that comment I did another 6 runs, 6 victories. Five of those battles only gave silver and I got 1 helmet. This is *definitely* not normal! What in the world is going on?

I had the same with auto battles today. I did 10 auto battles at FK 20 and got only 9 items. But I didn't watch the battles and thought maybe one was lost due to bad luck, even if my actual FK 20 team never lost a battle  before.

But if you say you don't get items on victories anymore for sure, sometimes gold only, I'm not sure if they really lost one match. I was really surprised that a (before today) 100% winrate team just made 9 items out of 10 runs.

 Yeah, I thought my highly reliable team was suddenly losing battles at first too but then I sat and watched it run on both manual and auto. This has to be a bug, there's no way I can farm enough gear to properly equip champions like this.

Are you running multi battles? I see you said you did one on manual so no idea what's going on.

If you're doing multi battles make sure you don't have auto sell checked?

Farming gear is a never ending uphill battle but yes you should be getting more than silver per run, unless you have auto sell checked.

 Thanks for your response, auto battles were in fact set to auto sell up to 4* gear. I don't normally use auto sell but I suppose I may have inadvertently done that. It still doesn't explain what I've seen on manual but I've done far more runs on auto than manual so RNG might, I'll test it.

 Well, it seems to be working normally now and I checked my Dragon Tournament points which are reasonable for how much energy I've spent so I have to assume the auto sell was culprit.

Some runs i dont get an item either, just 'double silver' 

I assumed it was normal, i have no idea how long its been the case.

I'll run a group of 3 3s champs from level 1 to level 30 and it seems like most runs are silver, then immediatly do another group and always get gear.  They DON't change the drop rates every 5 minutes so it MUST be RNG.

In before inevitable "Mod Drop Rates are different" :D
