• {{TreeArrow}}, the template used by this one for the tree lines and arrow.

Generates a Breeding Chain "Requirements" section and table, used on Chain Breeding Event pages. Either specify parents for the first child or the elements required. ---- Elements specified MUST be specified at the top of the chain (i.e., DOTM parents at top, its offspring as {{{child}}}, and subsequent parents beginning at {{{parent3}}}. ---- Parent numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 refer to vertical table position, this is not the case with elements that always appear in cells 1 and 2 vertically. If the second child has given parents, those must be specified in "parent3" and "parent4"; use "child2" for second child. ---- The "special" parameter belongs to "child", it overrides the auto-generated link if incorrect (example - Normally Bred vs DOTW). The "condition" parameter belongs to "parent3" or "child2" and is mandatory. For "condition" specify {{eod}} ONLY for dragons available via Limited Breeding-only, which don't have event pages. ---- For breeding a dual Dragon (dragons with incompatible/opposing elements like Sunflower, Mercury, Magnet etc.), enter one of its elements for each parent, but set each parent's second element as "Unknown". ---- When "child" is a DOTM, for the parents, always use the required elements needed to acquire the Dragon, NOT the two Dragons that Gameloft recommends in the in-game graphic.
