Overview

The Dilatory Derby is a quest with a boss called the Sea Stallion. Completing this quest rewards each participant with 25 gold, 125 experience, and 3 Seahorse eggs. Additional Seahorse eggs also become available in the Market for 3 gems each.

Availability & Cost:
It was released on July 09, 2014, and it is not yet known what annual re-release group it will be in. When available, the quest scroll can be purchased from the Quest Shop for 4 gems. It is also part of the Splashy Pals quest bundle, which is only sometimes available but contains three different quests for only 7 gems.

Difficulty & Length:
The Sea Stallion's HP of 300 makes this a short quest, and the strength multiplier of 1.5 gives it a base difficulty of "easy". Without using Warrior or Mage boss damaging skills, a four-person party typically takes about a week to finish this quest. This is a recommended quest for lower level (less than level 25) characters and smaller parties.


Description

It's Derby Day, and Habiticans from all over the continent have traveled to Dilatory to race their pet seahorses! Suddenly, a great splashing and snarling breaks out at the racetrack, and you hear Seahorse Keeper @Kiwibot shouting above the roar of the waves. "The gathering of seahorses has attracted a fierce Sea Stallion!" she cries. "He's smashing through the stables and destroying the ancient track! Can anyone calm him down?"

Objective(s)

Defeat the Sea Stallion.


On Completion

The now-tame Sea Stallion swims docilely to your side. "Oh, look!" Kiwibot says. "He wants us to take care of his children." She gives you three eggs. "Raise them well," she says. "You're welcome at the Dilatory Derby any day!"
