Draconic Evolution: Storing Energy

#REDIRECT Energy Core (Draconic Evolution)
Draconic Evolution provides a unique twist on storing energy. The Draconic Energy Core consists of a central 'orb' and a number of Energy Core Stabilizers positioned around the core. Energy Pylons are used to transfer power in and out of the Energy Core.
There are eight tiers, each providing a greater amount of storage, and each requiring a greater amount of materials to construct. The following table details the energy capacity and material requirements for each tier.
 	Tier 1 	Tier 2 	Tier 3 	Tier 4 	Tier 5 	Tier 6 	Tier 7 	Tier 8
Energy Stored:	45.5M RF	273M RF	1.64B RF	9.88B RF	59.3B RF	356B RF	2.14T RF	2⁶³ − 1 RF
 	1 	1 	1 	1 	1 	1 	1 	1

==Assembly==
Assembling a Draconic Energy Core is relatively simple. 
# Prepare an area suitable to house the multiblock. At its smallest, it will occupy a 5x5x5 space. At its largest, a 33x33x9 space.
# Place an Energy Core at the center of the space.
# Place stabilizers, one at each cardinal point, in line with the core.
#* The stabilizers may be placed at any distance within 16 blocks of the core. The stabilizers should be placed all in the same plane but the plane may be oriented horizontally or vertically as you choose. Once one stabilizer is in the correct place, you can right-click the core to open the GUI and activate a Build Guide which will project ghost blocks to assist in construction.
#* Tiers 1-4 only require a single stabilizer block at each point. Tiers 5-8 require a 3x3 of stabilizer blocks at each point.
# Once all stabilizers are in place, the core status should show "Valid". Now you can deactivate the build guide and activate the core.
==Transferring Energy==
Energy is transferred to/from the Energy Core with Energy Pylons. These can be placed anywhere within 16 blocks of the core. Once you have placed the pylon, place a glass block on the top of the pylon (if the pylon is below the core) or below the pylon (if the pylon is above the core). The glass block will change into a blue orb and particles will emit from it.
The arrows on the pylon indicate whether the pylon is acting as an input or output for the core. Right-clicking the blue orb will toggle between the two modes.
The Pylons are compatible with most energy types and can transfer up to 2,147,483,647 RF per tick, per face.
