Notes

Deals Dark, Earth, Water, or Ice damage. Damage type is picked by monster's elemental resistances, and in the case of equal resistances it generally follows the pattern of Ice > Earth > Water > Dark.

For a two-step Skillchain, damage mirrors the final Weapon Skill before resistances or bonuses. Skillchain damage of a given element can be enhanced with day/weather bonuses from the Elemental Obis and by Staves. See the main Skillchain page for more information.

If the Darkness skillchain was not closed by a weaponskill with pure Darkness property, then a weaponskill that does have pure Darkness property can extend the chain by another Darkness Skillchain.

Example:

• If Blade: Hi (Gravitation/Darkness) opens the skillchain, then Chant du Cygne (Distortion/Light) closes it, this creates a Darkness property and a Darkness (Skillchain), then Blade: Hi (Darkness) can be used again to extend the skillchain (Darkness > Darkness) to form another Darkness skillchain..

• If Chant du Cygne (Light/Distortion) opens the skillchain and Blade: Hi (Gravitation/Darkness) closes it, another Blade: Hi cannot extend it.

• This can also be done by a Blue Mage via Chain Affinity. The Unbridled Learning spell Bloodrake contains Darkness property similar to Blade: Hi, and can therefore be used to extend a darkness skillchain in a similar manner while Chain Affinity or Azure Lore are in effect.
