Power Cores

Power Cores are hidden collectibles in Torn and Chris6dizzle.

Torn
Power Cores return in Torn as a collectible item, as they were originally from Chris6dizzle. In Torn, they do not have much of a purpose, but it is explained that they are the result of the First Sons' failed prototype for the Finite Stones. Originally, Power Cores were what powered the Finite Stones, but after the device was reworked, Power Cores became unnecessary, so the First Sons hid them around the city, and it is up to the player to collect and drop off at The Hub as many as they can find. There are over 150 Power Cores in Torn, and they can be found in missions and throughout the city in free-roam.

Chris6dizzle
Power Cores are essentially the player's score in Chris6dizzle. There are 80 Power Cores hidden throughout the map, which are usually inside chests hidden by green wool, which is the only block players are allowed to break. Bonus Challenges provide the player with many Power Cores if completed.

Trivia

 * Power Cores are actually Magma Cream, but renamed. Their appearance is also altered due to the Chris6dizzle/Torn Resource Packs. They appear to be glowing orange orbs in the resource packs.
 * Despite the name, Power Cores do not provide the player with any power or status effects.
 * Power Cores were originally not going to return in Torn, after being in Chris6dizzle, but as a little Easter egg-reference to the original map, Chris6d brought them back.
 * On the map's forum page on Minecraftmaps.com, the post states that there are 72 Power Cores. This is because Chris6d found eight more in the map after already posting it, and could not re-edit it. The forum page on both Minecraft Forums and PlanetMinecraft displays the correct amount.
 * Power Cores do not return in Torn: Origins. Instead, the player can collect Secret Tokens.
