Damaged Weapon Cores in Stellar Blade, explained

Damaged Weapon Cores in Stellar Blade are one of the collectibles that can be used to upgrade protagonist Eve’s powers. The game's entire map is filled with collectibles, such as the Body Cores and Beta Cores. While the other collectibles increase Eve’s vitality and energy, Weapon Cores help make her more powerful.

Stellar Blade is an action-packed hack 'n' slash title with a narrative focus. However, it also has many RPG mechanics in its gameplay. Among them, the collectible hunt is the most notable.

However, unlike most RPGs, collectibles in Stellar Blade not only reward cosmetic items but also increase some of Eve's most vital aspects.

What are Damaged Weapon Cores in Stellar Blade?

In this game, Eve's main weapon is a sword called Blood Edge. This sword is very similar to the one-hand melee weapons found in the Devil May Cry series.

Blood Edge can perform swift slices at insane speeds and can shred even the most powerful monsters in a second. However, it can be made more powerful.

To increase Blood Edge's power, Eve will need Weapon Cores. While Weapon Cores are scattered all around the maps of Stellar Blade, two of them can be found easily. These two are Damaged Weapon Cores, and they can only be used once they are repaired.
