    I don't think the genies represent elements. When you look closely at the last pictures of each genie at ecatombs site, you'll see petals, brown leaves and snowflakes around them. So, I guess they represent seasons.

    If they're not seasonal genies, i demand a metal genie though b:chuckle

    There isn't fix element for any genie, you decide what point to put. However, most wanted and common one are white and gold for MAG and STR. If you get your genie random stats at 45/50 at L50 for these two genies. You can sell for lots of coins.

    The color of the genie indicates its "focused" stat (str, dex, mag, int), which dictates the genies primary advantage (listed in the first post)

    The Element (fire, water, earth, wood, metal) is a stat that determines skill requirements (or seems so) and is raised manually, in which you can choose to go for one element (or multiple) to benefit from different skills.

    Not sure, but I'd say no to that; the initial color means that your genie has 10 points more in 1 stat than the other 3, but after that you build it the way you want. The other color change (which is quite confusing to me as well) happens when your reach lvl 100 and <our "random stat point bonuses" are determined... refer to the first post for that information...

    Again unconfirmed (but recall being mentioned by Daji) that you receive 1 stat point per level, and when your genie reaches 40 points in a stat, raising that stat to 41+ needs 2 points per raise (seems they are trying NOT to make them OP, but...)

    No. Think of Genie like TT weapons, you have green, gold, orange etc. It depend on random stats,the higher the random you get for your genie the better the look.

    From the pictures on ecatomb you'll know how good your genie will be from the start, it will start off gold etc. They also 'evolve' kinda like demon/sage fairies at certain levels.

    Question, how do Genies fight? And does anyone have a build somewhere in the other PW?

    They don't "fight", they just grant you extra skills, and determine their usage and effect (strength, effect and usability). See the first post on stat listings and you will get he basic understanding...

    P.S. Since the genies get random stats every 10 levels, the chance to have an actual "build" are rather slim (unless if you employ heavy restating)

    They don't fight. You execute genie skill from hot bar. There no standard build but most goes with MAG / STR one.

    Some info on when these things are coming out would be nice...
    Considering PW-MY doesnt have them yet, I dont think we will see them for at least another 10 - 12 months.

    PWI and PW-MY has nothing related.

    Additon info for who need:
    1)When you learn skill for a genie, it will cost SP and Money. Maximum number of skills that genie can learn is 8. You can delete the skill you don't want at the new NPC with free charge, but your SP and Money gone forever.
    2)There are 4 types of equipments your genie can buy. For now, only 2 items for each type. 1 item cost 1M to buy, another cost 3M. All of these item +1 or 2 point more to your genie's stats.
    3)Depends on how you spend the element stat of the genie, it can learn and cast certain skill.
    4)You genie's color changes, depend on how you build its stat, and when it reach lvl 100, it color will change one more time, depends on how many random stat points your genie gets every 10 lvl, over the total possible random points. RANDOM POINTS YOU CAN GET DEPENDS ON YOUR GENIE'S... LOYALTY POINT ( how to increase this point... as for now, I got no idea ^^)
    As the author said on his FAQ at page 1, the color just like you weapon: dark orange is best, gold is good, purple is ok, green is... trade your genie.
    5)Over all, if there are 1000 genie, there could be 1000 ways to build. The genie is kinda new, so there isn't any perfect way to build it yet. It depends on what skill you want to learn, on your class, on your favorite color (eg. girls like pink a lot b:surrender), on your pocket...

    It will cost you a big sum of money and LUCK ( why luck is here, for ppl who doesn't has enough money... make it fair a bit b:laugh) to build a scary genie...
    I has no hope for the 2 anti-bleeding skills ( they sux over all b:angry), but there are some really cool skill (eg. the running fast skill... to run away from the nix b:victory).
    GOOD LUCK ON YOUR GENIE GUYS. AND PWI, RELEASE IT SOON PLEASE. I FEEL BORED OF THIS GAME ALREADY.
    Why...so...serious?
