'''Energy cores''' are [[Forerunner]] devices. They are shaped like a three-sided pyramid that project streams of energy, which meet in a hollow center. The three streams combine to form a pink ball of energy that is maintained in stasis. Similar to the smaller and more common [[power core]]s, energy cores are highly explosive if damaged or rammed violently, and will explode with greater power than most conventional explosive devices such as [[M9 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose grenade|fragmentation grenades]]. Despite their volatile nature, energy cores are relatively light and can be pushed easily. If they are hit, they will become unstable and turn red, but will eventually stabilize and turn blue again.<ref name="h2">'''[[Halo 2]]''', multiplayer map ''[[Containment]]''</ref>
