As soon as you enter the lobby a.k.a. the Ship inLethal Company, you’ll be able to interact with a Terminal and use various commands. One of these commands is ‘moons’, which tells you all the moons that you can take the ship to and the current weather effects on them.

One of these weather effects is called Eclipsed, and as you’d expect, you get to face the Eclipsed moon in this one. This is likely the most dangerous effect to encounter and you’re essentially going to the hardest mode of the game if you choose to land here.

How Eclipsed Weather Effect Works

As soon as your ship starts landing on an Eclipsed Moon, you’ll be able to get out andsee the effect on the right side of the sky with a completely dark moon. This is hard to miss since you get a warning on the ship when you’re about to land in Eclipse and the surrounding area is colored in a unique orange shade.

The most important thing you need to understand about Eclipse is that the outskirts of the map essentially works like it’s already nighttime, meaning thatEyeless Dogs, Forest Keepers, and Worms will instantly start spawning. The spawn rate of enemies both inside and outside the main building is also increased.

Of course, with more enemies to encounter, you can alsoget more loot and have a higher chance of getting valuable items.

As you head inside the main building in an Eclipsed Moon,don’t be surprised if you’re already greeted by two Coil-heads and a Bracken. This game mode needs heavy teamwork, and is usually a death sentence if you try to embark on it alone without enough experience.

How To Survive The Eclipse

After knowing the dangers of an Eclipsed moon, it wouldn’t be fair to simply ask you to avoid it at all times. Of course, as you play Lethal Company more,you’ll get more experienced and will want to take on more challenging tasks. If you do want to take yourself to an Eclipsed moon, here are a few tips to avoid defeat:

If you’re planning to get a drop, do it on a moonbefore you head to the Eclipsedsince you won’t get time to take the items.
