I have to second this statement. I always have an adventure going, but haven?t received the components to craft an alicorn in YEARS. It takes two different components, and when I get one, it?s always the same one. Yes, I could (and have) spend gems to buy the other component, but it costs the same as it does to buy one outright during a Black Friday sale. When you see players with hundreds of alicorns, understand that they ARE spending gems on them, it isn?t just because of the love shack.
