Konzen-ittai and Weapon Skill Trial

[Cimyr]

Just hit 71 with 250 GK Skill. Wondering if I can use Konzen-ittai > Tachi: Gekko to make Darkness and make this go by quickly. Or will that not work? I tried looking it up and it seems noone actually knows.

It works, of course.

Thank the mighty Thor. And you Mirage. Im off to slaughter the creatures of Vana'diel!

I just got to lvl 72 sam and had a follow up question about this for the 250skill trial. Can you use Sekka and do something like this; Tachi: Yukikaze > Tachi: Koki = Fragmentation then use Konzen > Gekko = Darkness for a total of 9 points toward the trial? Since you get 1 point for opening a skillchain, then 3 points for closing the lvl 2 chain... then ending with the lvl 3 darkness chain for 5 points?

[Mirage]

You would get a total of 9 points for yuki->koki (1+3 points) and konzen->gekko (5 points). Those two steps are unrelated though. Soloing a LV3 without using konzen would net you 6 points, but that's not doable (without swapping to a different weapon anyway) until you get kasha, so it's a moot point.

[Dohati]

if you get rana before kasha, you can use rana>gekko to make darkness for kasha's points.
