Midnight Symbiote

Quickstart

1. Enter a world with the mod enabled. The invisible symbiote core bonds to you automatically; it does not occupy an inventory slot.
2. Crouch and punch a block or entity to open the symbiote menu.
3. Choose a form. The corresponding arm item appears in your inventory:
   • Symbiote Blade Arm for melee combat
   • Symbiote Axe Arm or Symbiote Pickaxe Arm for mining
   • Symbiote Shield Arm for defense
   • Symbiote Vitality Arm for healing and extra health
   • Symbiote Tentacle Arm for grabbing enemies
   • Symbiote Web Arm for snares and movement
   • Symbiote Wing Part for flight
   • Symbiote Spider-Leg Arms for climbing and fall protection
4. Select an arm item and use it with the attack or use button. Some abilities require the item to be held in your selected hotbar slot.
5. For a major power boost, crouch and use any held item. This activates permanent Full Symbiote Mode.

You can also obtain the items directly in the Creative inventory under Equipment, or with commands such as /give @s com_midnight_symbiote_wff2d3o5:symbiote_blade 1.

Overview

Midnight Symbiote gives you a hidden symbiote that reshapes itself into specialized arms. Switch between combat, mining, defense, healing, web movement, flight, and spider-like traversal as needed.

The symbiote menu normally equips one form at a time. Choosing Choose all forms removes the current arms, makes every form unavailable for 5 seconds, and then gives you all nine arm items.

The menu can be opened again at any time by crouching and punching a block or entity.

What It Adds

Each arm item is unique and does not stack.

How To Use

Opening the symbiote menu

• Crouch.
• Punch any block or entity.
• Select a form from the menu.

Selecting a new individual form removes other Midnight Symbiote arm items from your inventory and replaces them with the selected arm.

Using an arm

Hold the desired arm item and use it with the normal Minecraft use button. Attack-based arms can be used by striking blocks or entities. The action bar displays cooldown messages when an ability is not ready.

Full Symbiote Mode

Crouch and use any item to activate Full Symbiote Mode. The bond cannot be removed once activated. Crouching and using an item again refreshes its power surge.

Full Symbiote Mode provides:

• Strength II
• Speed II
• Jump Boost II
• Resistance II
• Night Vision
• Stronger web pulls and spider-leg movement
• Additional effects for the Blade Arm

Abilities And Mechanics

Symbiote Blade Arm

Use the Blade Arm as a powerful melee weapon.

While Full Symbiote Mode is active, striking an enemy also:

• Applies Wither for 3 seconds
• Grants you Regeneration for 3 seconds

Symbiote Axe Arm

The Axe Arm deals 8 attack damage and efficiently breaks blocks normally mined with an axe. It is useful for gathering wood and other axe-mined materials while retaining solid melee damage.

Symbiote Pickaxe Arm

The Pickaxe Arm deals 6 attack damage and efficiently breaks blocks normally mined with a pickaxe. Its mining speed is higher than the Axe Arm, making it the better choice for stone and underground resources.

Symbiote Shield Arm

Use the Shield Arm to harden the symbiote around you.

The ability grants:

• Resistance V for 8 seconds
• Absorption III for 12 seconds
• A knockback burst against nearby entities within 4 blocks

The shield ability has a 4-second cooldown.

Symbiote Vitality Arm

Use the Vitality Arm to restore yourself and greatly increase your survivability.

It:

• Restores health to maximum
• Restores hunger
• Grants extra hearts
• Grants additional absorption hearts
• Provides short-term Regeneration

The health and hunger benefits remain active while the Vitality form is equipped. The active healing ability has a 2-second cooldown.

Symbiote Tentacle Arm

The Tentacle Arm is useful against individual enemies.

• Use it while looking at a target within 14 blocks to lash out, knock the target away, and immobilize it.
• Attack an entity with the Tentacle Arm to snare it.
• Snared targets suffer extreme Slowness along with Weakness and Mining Fatigue.

The use ability has a 1.5-second cooldown. A successful use immobilizes a target for about 3 seconds; a direct hit can hold it for about 4 seconds.

Symbiote Web Arm

The Web Arm has two functions.

Web snare

Use the Web Arm while looking at an entity within 24 blocks to immobilize it. You can also strike an entity with the Web Arm to apply a web snare.

Normal web snares last about 5 seconds. Full Symbiote Mode extends them to about 8 seconds.

Web pull

If no entity is in the line of sight, use the Web Arm toward a solid block or location to create an anchor. Continue holding the use button to pull yourself toward that anchor.

• Anchors can reach up to about 32 blocks away.
• The pull remains available for up to 8 seconds.
• Keep the Web Arm selected while pulling.
• The web line ends when you reach the anchor, change dimensions, stop holding the arm, or the anchor expires.

The Web Arm has a very short cooldown, allowing repeated web shots.

Symbiote Wing Part

Use the Wing Part to launch forward and unfurl the symbiote wings.

It grants:

• Slow Falling for about 12 seconds
• Jump Boost II for about 8 seconds
• Speed II for about 6 seconds
• An initial forward launch

Hold jump or the use button while airborne to continue flying. Keep the Wing Part selected while using sustained flight.

Symbiote Spider-Leg Arms

Use the Spider-Leg Arms to activate spider-like traversal.

They allow you to:

• Crawl up solid walls while facing them
• Step over obstacles up to roughly three blocks high when there is enough room
• Move more quickly over difficult terrain
• Avoid fall damage

The arms provide short bursts of Speed, Jump Boost, and Slow Falling when activated. While the Spider-Leg Arms are active, fall damage is absorbed rather than applied.

Crafting And Obtaining

Midnight Symbiote has no crafting recipes.

You can obtain the arm items in either of these ways:

• Open the symbiote menu by crouching and punching a block or entity.
• Find the items in the Creative inventory under Equipment.
• Use the following Bedrock commands:

Progression And Strategy

There is no unlock tree. The symbiote menu gives immediate access to every form, so choose the arm that matches the situation:

• Use the Blade Arm for ordinary fights and the Shield Arm when surrounded.
• Activate the Vitality Arm before exploring dangerous areas or recovering from a battle.
• Carry the Axe Arm and Pickaxe Arm for flexible resource gathering.
• Use the Web Arm to cross gaps, reach high ledges, or pin dangerous enemies.
• Use the Wing Part for long aerial movement and the Spider-Leg Arms for caves, cliffs, and vertical structures.
• Activate Full Symbiote Mode before major combat or exploration for its permanent general-purpose buffs.
• Choose all forms when you want to switch abilities freely without reopening the menu. Be prepared for the 5-second period during which every arm is unavailable.
