Blaze the Sage Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 No. Without modifying game files in some way, Eclipse cannot crit, it is specifically programmed to not be possible because of how Eclipse's damage works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Actually, I was curious so I tried exactly the same thing just now and it's indeed possible. First you need to use the Control Enemy Glitch to obtain a Stone and then cast Stone on Lyon. When he's petrified, Eclipse will always have ~30 Critical to critical and if it does critical, Lyon (or anybody under these circumstances) will die.

Blaze the Sage Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 ...oh, wow. ...Well then, I guess the question becomes, do you want to know if it's doable completely legit, or just without hacking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack of the Dead Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 I meant without hacking. because you can't get a stone without using a glitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) You can do this without having to use any ROM-editing programs (hacking), since it is doable through a programming flaw (glitch). Glitch =/= Hack. Edited October 30, 2011 by V-Raven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 As V-Raven mentioned, it's technically not a hack. However, if you want to do it without a glitch, then it's not possible. The only way to critical with Eclipse is if the enemy is petrified and you can't petrify enemies through "legit" means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krad Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I'm not sure on this since I haven't played SS in a long time, but couldn't you get a Berserk staff, cast it on a Gorgon that has Stone, make it cast it on an enemy, and then use Eclipse on it? Again, I'm not sure if this would work since maybe berserked enemies don't use Stone or some other weird thing could happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Actually, you're right. I forgot there are Stone-wielding Gorgons near him. Although obtaining a Berserk staff is pretty troublesome, but just about doable (I remember doing this several months ago). So doing a Eclipse critical on Lyon is possible via legit means. Unless you count obtaining the Berserk staff as foul play (it requires burning the caster's Mend staff).
