Guinea Pig

cute little guinea pig, can we get an awwwww in the chat

Guinea Pigs (Domesticated Guinea Pigs), an echo fighter of a capybara, are some well-known rodents that human mains keep as pets. Many players wonder why the devs decided to call them guinea pigs. Some people thought that they got their name from a glitch while others think that it was a joke while some others think there's a deeper meaning to it.

## Overview and History

### History

Guinea Pigs (modern guinea pig ancestors not the real one) were added to the game 40 million years ago in the African server. Some guinea pig mains decided to migrate servers through a boat (floating debris for human mains that think it's a fancy passenger boat). They found it much easier to survive in the South American server. When they arrived in the South American server, they began to diversify to have abilities and skills suited for the jungles and rainforests. That is when some guinea pig mains evolved into the modern-day guinea pig. These modern-day guinea pigs decided that the rainforest doesn't suite their playstyle so they migrated to the grasslands just before the mountains separating Bolivia and Chile. That is where finally, the domesticated guinea pig is finally introduced into the game. Domestic Guinea pigs were mostly kept as EXP for humans. The way they became party members instead of something to spawn kill is that some members of the Spanish Empire Clan that specialized in PvP brutally destroyed the Inca Clan with the help of Smallpox players, and thought that the Guinea pigs that the Incas that were spawn killing, were very cute, and they became party members

### Overview

Guinea Pigs are a generalist build that eats grass and hay players. Guinea pigs need attention from the human player and need to exercise. They are in a higher weight class (as they are larger in size) than most rodents and can use problem-solving and remember complex paths to loot. They have a low resolve stat and when scared will either need to reconnect their controller or run rapidly, aimlessly. This is a mean to confuse predators but isn't as effective as predator mains with high intelligence. They have mediocre mobility. They can't climb or jump really high and don't have the highest run speed but can swim pretty well. They are social rodents that practice grooming (an ability which cleans the other player from dirtiness). They have pretty developed sensory abilities with a good hearing smell, and well can't see as far as most builds and can't see as many colors, unlike most builds. It has a view range of 340 degrees.

## Abilities

### High Intelligence

Like many Rodents, Guinea pigs have high intelligence. This is to the extent of them being able to learn tricks and having a social hierarchy, maintaining peace and order.

### Bite

Guinea pig players, though docile towards the human players in their party, are ruthless against other Guinea pig mains, sometimes eliminating them in worst-case scenarios. These attacks are brutal, and it is up to the human players who keep them to prevent these.

## Weaknesses

### Short game time

This is probably not a good thing because even though Guinea pigs have the intelligence to pass on their wisdom, their short game time does not allow this.

### Low Defense

Guinea pigs have terrible defense. They don't have armor, poison, or anything besides fur for defense. Since Guinea pigs are exclusively support, they don't have predators, but human mains have exploited their low defense by testing their potions on Guinea pigs, often eliminating them or reducing their max HP.

## Tier Placement

B tier. Their bites will cause great pain towards other Guinea pig players, and they have intelligence, creating a hierarchy, yet their short game time and low defense are a challenge for them. If you put a guinea pig in a room with a hamster, it will win. If you put it with a fox, it will be eliminated.
