Dark Quads are Luminoth-built machines possessed by the Ing. They are separated into a Main Body and a Command Module, and both are capable of operating individually.[1][2] Lesser Ing take control of the Main Body while stronger Ing take the Command Module.[3][4]

The Main Body attacks with melee attacks, such as slashing, and are also capable of spinning at a high rate to deflect most attacks. The Command Module uses energy-based attacks, which are also capable of generating shields to protect itself.[1] They Main Body is more armored and less susceptible to weapons fire, but vulnerable when venting heat.[2] While connected, Dark Quads can fire a sustained beam of energy.

Samus first encounters Dark Quads in the Sanctuary Temple, then later in the Ing Hive while battling Quadraxis, who is capable of generating them.

  1. 1.0 1.1 "A Quad is formed of two components: the quadruped Main Body and the flying Command Module. These units can function independently, or linked together, as the need arises. The Command Module relies on ranged beam weapon attacks. It can generate a powerful beam shield to protect itself. Opposite-polarity beams can penetrate this shield, however." —Logbook (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
  2. 2.0 2.1 "A Quad is formed of two components: the quadruped Main Body and the flying Command Module. These units can function independently, or linked together, as the need arises. The Main Body uses melee attacks in battle. Though durable, it needs to vent excess heat from its body. When this happens, it exposes a venting system vulnerable to concussive attacks." —Logbook (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
