| | '''Quads''' are [[Luminoth]] built Mechanoids that were originally used to combat the [[Ing]]; but as with other Mechanoids, they were turned against their creators by the Ing. They are controlled by a Command Module which is capable of operating without its Main Body. The Main Body is also capable of operating without a Command Module. |

| | == Abilities == |
| '''Quads''' are [[Luminoth]] [[Luminoth Technology|built]] machines, built by the [[Sentinel of the Temple|Sentinel]] [[O-Lir]] to fight the [[Ing]]. Like many of the Luminoths' creations, they have been turned against their creators and now attack any enemies of the Horde.<ref>{{cite|During the war, I built a number of mechanical sentinels to join me in battle. They were made to fight the Ing, and fight them they did…for a time. One by one, the Ing corrupted them. Now, they attack with no mercy.|O-Lir|Metroid Prime 2: Echoes}}</ref> Quads are separated into two components, both capable of operating independently.<ref name=cm/><ref name=mb/>
| | Quads have several offensive and defensive abilities: |
| | *While the Main Body and Command Module are connected, a sustained energy beam may be fired. A weak point that Samus may exploit is present while the beam is active. |
| | *The Main Body is capable of using melee attacks including slashing and spinning, Samus may counter the spinning by [[Boost Ball|boosting]] directly into it. |
| | *The Command Module can generate shields that can only be overloaded with a beam with the opposite polarity, firing energy bursts, or connecting with the Main Body of another Quad. |
|
| |
|
| The Main Body is armored and resistant to attacks, however they need to vent off excess heat, exposing a vulnerable system when they do.<ref name=mb/> Although more susceptible to weapons fire, the Command Module is protected by an energy shield composed of light or dark energy that can repel most attacks. These shields can be overloaded with beams of the opposite polarity however.<ref name=cm/> If the Main Body of a Quad is destroyed, the surviving Command Module can seek out an unused body and attach it. Likewise, if a Command Module is destroyed, the Main Body is capable of sending out signals to any nearby Command Modules for replacement.
| | == Dark Quad == |
| | | Dark Quads do not have any abilities not present in a regular Quad, except for increased resistance. Quadraxis generates these in the battle against it. |
| Quads use a myriad of attacks, with the Command Module utilizing energy based attacks and the Main Body uses melee attacks.<ref name=cm/><ref name=mb/> When connected, the Quad is capable of firing a powerful sustained energy beam. Using that attack however exposes the Main Body's venting system to attack.

| |
| [[Samus Aran|Samus]] encounters these Mechanoids multiple times in Sanctuary Fortress. She is capable of damaging the Main Body of a Quad with her [[Boost Ball]] or [[Morph Ball Bomb|Bombs]] when their venting system is exposed. The less resilient Command Modules can be destroyed when their shields are inactive. [[Power Bomb]]s are capable of bypassing the shield entirely, destroying the Command Module instantly.
