Hello guys!

So I joined this game a month ago and was really interested in the battlefield. I can build a squad but before that I have some questions.

1. Are squads permanent? After adding 4 pets to a squad, can you still change the pets in a squad or are they there forever?

2. I see that in the Tactics FAQ you can get special tactics when you get a certain amount of genetic power and battle wins. Does battle wins mean the arena or the tactics? I have a pet roc called Menteros (GP3) with a lot of wins but I can't see Theory of Chaos on his tactics page. Am I doing something wrong?

3. Do you need level 50 pets to go on the battlefield? What are the benefits? 

4. What are the rewards if you are not in any places that grant you vermillion and other stuff? 

5. I see a lot of squads with the same 4 animals. Why is that?

6. Should you always include elemental attacks as one of the tactics? Like fire strike, lightning strike, etc?

That's all the questions I have for now. Thank you so much for your time!

1. No, you can change your squads as necessary.

2. Theory of Chaos and other tactics are only awarded when pets reach a certain amount of squad wins, not individual battle wins. 

3. Level 50 is not necessary but often to get a second maneuver like Counterstrike or Berserker your stats need to be above 100 and pets that are higher level will have better stats for those second maneuvers.

4. You get to exist on the island. Hooray!

5. Sometimes squads with same beasts have benefits, like 4 Lykos with Hound can jump past an empty zone. Other times a player just wants the special maneuvers that a certain species has. 

6. It depends on what squad build you're going for.
