Assimilated Mobs

Assimilated Mobs are Vanilla Mobs that were overtaken by the Infestation, either at the hands of a Rupter or of the COTH Effect. Assimilated Mobs can disguise in order to fake being a normal Mob, even still acting like their natural counterparts. The disguise is removed if the Mob is brought to low HP or Evolution Phase 5 is reached.

All Assimilated Mobs tend to possess similar aspects, both for Gameplay and, most likely, Lore reasons. They all present a Weakness to Fire, the Ability to jump tot blocks depending on the Mob, a short Regeneration they obtain from killing a Mob, and the Ability to leap in water.

No Assimilated Mob presents eyes.

General Behavior
After death, Assimilated Mobs can do one of three things:


 * 1) Release their head, which will move on newly sprouted tendrils in order to continue attacking.
 * 2) Their body will either drop on the ground or stay still then tremble, after some seconds it will explode. After this, they will only spawn a lingering cloud of Poison and COTH Effects or, together with the Cloud, a tot number of Buglins, depending on the Assimilated Mob. In both cases, they'll spawn Gore;
 * 3) Use the Reinforcement System.

Trivia
It was revealed that all Assimilated Mobs are alive, both in body and mind, though, "their cells aren't theirs anymore".
