Polyphonic Core is a technology.

Summary[ | ]

Polyphonic Core is a Multi-Tool technology upgrade for the Scanner. It reveals nearby sentience echo sites, cloaked Autophage NPCs, locates Autophage Camps, and gives +11% to scan radius.

To locate camps, the Polyphonic Core must be activated from the Multi-Tool technology inventory. It must be fully charged to use this ability.

While using the Analysis Visor on Dissonant Planets, an icon will appear for sentience echoes within scanner range. Once the site is reached, initiating a local scan pulse will reveal the sentience echo, which can then be mined to obtain an Echo Seed.

A scan pulse at Autophage Camps and Harmonic Camps will also reveal cloaked Autophage NPCs.

Game Description[ | ]

An attachment for the Multi-Tool Scanner that allows the device to detect and decode the cloaking signal of nearby Autophage units.

Use (Key.c/Psbutton.l3/Psbutton.l3) (PC/PS/XB) to activate the Scanner. As its detector waveform passes over the local area, it will automatically reveal any nearby Autophage entities.

In addition, this device can be used to locate Autophage settlements. Use Locate Autophage Camp to pinpoint a planetary gathering of Autophage.
