Overview

The Guinea Pig Gang is a quest with an eponymous boss. Completing this quest rewards each participant with 31 gold, 200 experience, and 3 Guinea Pig eggs. Additional Guinea Pig eggs also become available in the Market for 3 gems each.

Availability & Cost:
It was released on February 16, 2017, 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 Cuddle Buddies quest bundle, which is only sometimes available but contains three different quests for only 7 gems.

Difficulty & Length:
The Guinea Pig Gang's HP of 400 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 less than two weeks to finish this quest. This is a recommended quest for lower level (less than level 25) characters and smaller parties.


Description

You're casually strolling through Habit City's famous Market when @Pandah waves you down. "Hey, check these out!" They're holding up a brown and beige egg you don't recognize.

Alexander the Merchant frowns at it. "I don't remember putting that out. I wonder where it came--" A small paw cuts him off.

Guinea all your gold, merchant! squeaks a tiny voice brimming with evil.

Oh no, the egg was a distraction! @mewrose exclaims. "It's the gritty, greedy Guinea Pig Gang! They never do their Dailies, so they constantly steal gold to buy health potions."

Robbing the Market? says @emmavig. "Not on our watch!" Without further prompting, you leap to Alexander's aid.

Objective(s)

Defeat the Guinea Pig Gang.


On Completion

"We submit!" The Guinea Pig Gang Boss waves his paws at you, fluffy head hanging in shame. From underneath his hat falls a list, and @snazzyorange quickly swipes it for evidence. "Wait a minute," you say. "It's no wonder you've been getting hurt! You've got way too many Dailies. You don't need health potions -- you just need help organizing."

Really? squeaks the Guinea Pig Gang Boss. "We've robbed so many people because of this! Please take our eggs as an apology for our crooked ways."
