How to Trigger Bending Moves and Use Action Slots
Performing Slot Inputs
Instead of cluttering your hotbar with extra items, the Avatar Addon triggers your equipped abilities through combinations of looking, sneaking, and punching. Once you have opened your scroll and bound abilities via the Choose Slots menu, you can activate your slots during gameplay using these specific movements:
- Slot 1: Look straight up and sneak.
- Slot 2: Look straight down and punch.
- Slot 3: Double sneak (press your sneak key twice quickly).
- Slot 4: Sneak and punch at the same time.
You can equip up to 6 favorite moves across your slots to build a custom move set that differentiates you from other benders of the exact same element. If you ever forget how a slot works or want to check ability details while playing, run the chat commands !info slots or !info moves.
How to Temporarily Disable Bending
Because bending relies on standard Minecraft movements like sneaking and punching, you might accidentally trigger destructive or movement-heavy abilities while trying to build, mine, or interact with blocks around your base.
When you want to go about normal vanilla tasks without activating your slots, you have two ways to pause your bending:
1. Place arrows into your off-hand slot.
2. Open the chat window and run the command !bending to toggle your abilities off and back on.
