Skillchain Usage

When performed after a Gravitation-based (Earth & Dark) Skillchain, Tachi: Gekko result will be a high-level Darkness Skillchain. When performed after a Fragmentation-based (Wind & Lightning) Skillchain or weapon skill, the result will be a Distortion-based (Water & Ice) Skillchain. With the introduction of the new weaponskill Tachi: Rana, it is now possible for Samurai to perform their own Darkness Skillchains with Tachi: Gekko.

Translation

See Tachi: Enpi for the translation of "Tachi:"

This weaponskill's original name in the Japanese version is:

太刀・月光 (Hachi no Tachi: Gekkou)

"The Eighth Style of the Tachi: 'Moonlight'."

The kanji are 月 (Getsu): "Moon", and 光 (Kou): "Light". This is reflected in the weaponskill itself, as the animation illustrates a brightly glowing moon. The moon also has a thin, lime-green, outer circle with Hebrew letters, which translate to, "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.".
