# IX- ENERGY CORE

The Energy Core is design to facilitate player progression. Each headquarter is equipped with an Energy Core, a powerful module developed by Arcadian scientists at the beginning of the year 2074.

### Where and How to

1\) Access your Energy Core by clicking on the B**ooster** icon next to your profil picture on the top right. This view shows a resume of how much charge of energy the player currently have available. Click on the **Energy Core** button to access the module.

2\) This extended view is the Energy core Dashboard. You can easy check your charge of energy balance about everywhere. To load your Energy Core module with more energy, you will need some [energy cells](/nbm-shadow-depths/overview/nft-battle-miners-official-wiki/iv-nbm-nfts/nft-assets/energy-cells.md) NFTs. If you don't have any yet, click on the **Get more energy cells** button so you can buy some on market. In case you have some already, click on the **Add energy** button instead.

3\) You will then be asked to select some Energy cells from your inventory. Select One or more, C/R/E/L/U energy cells gives respectively 1/2/4/8/16 energy charges.

4\) Here one energy cell has been selected. Therefore by confirming, the player will get 1 energy charge credited to its Energy Core in exchange to its NFT. Selected NFT(s) will be destroyed during the process.

5\) Check your Energy Core balance, it should have increased accordingly.

{% tab title="Energy charges" %}
The Energy Core can be charged using energy cells, with the amount of energy transferred to the core varying based on the rarity of the cell:

| Rarity                    | Units of Energy |
| ------------------------- | --------------- |
| **Common** Energy Cell    | 1 Unit / cell   |
| **Rare** Energy Cell      | 2 Units / cell  |
| **Epic** Energy Cell      | 4 Units / cell  |
| **Legendary** Energy Cell | 8 Units / cell  |
| **Ultimate** Energy Cell  | 16 Units / cell |

When using an Energy Cell, the energy from the cell is transferred to the core, and the Energy Cell NFT is destroyed using the NBM 'Simple Blend' logic.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Where to use energy" %}
Energy can be used to perform various actions and improve outcomes in the game. Among other things, it is possible to use energy to :

<table><thead><tr><th width="124">Location</th><th width="190">Action</th><th>Bonus</th><th>Energy Cost</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Terragrid</td><td>Power the Terragrid Station</td><td>Increase the probability of finding materials on Aperta by 200% (Multiplier x2) for each unit.</td><td>1 unit of energy /hr. Players can choose how long to power the station using various options.</td></tr><tr><td>Shadow Depths</td><td>Secure minting of allocated NFTs</td><td>When minting NFTs, ensure the outcome is secured and prevent rarity loss in case of failure.</td><td>Depends on the rarity of the gear: 1/2/4/8/16 for C/R/E/L/U gears.</td></tr><tr><td>Shadow Depths</td><td>Lock a quantum on equipment</td><td>The quantum locked is preserved when randomizing gears stats.</td><td>Depends on the rarity of the gear: 1/2/4/8/16 for C/R/E/L/U gears.</td></tr><tr><td>NFT Fusion</td><td>Increase the chances of winning a Stellar equipment</td><td>When fusing two equipment NFTs, the player can use energy to increase the chance of obtaining a Stellar NFT by 50% (Multiplier 1.5).</td><td>16 Units of energy / fusion.</td></tr></tbody></table>
