Powerfocus chips are a resource added by the Biotech DLC.
Acquisition
A single powerfocus chip will be dropped by a hostile war queen upon death, regardless of whether the war queen is summoned by a mechband antenna or spawned naturally as part of a raid. It is not relevant who kills the war queen - a war queen killed by other factions, wild animals, or berserk mechanoids still drop the signal chip. Player controlled war queens will not drop a powerfocus chip.
Usage
Powerfocus chips are used to create various mechanitor items, and studying one at a research bench is required to research High Mechtech. The chip is not consumed in the process of studying it.
They are used in the following crafting recipes:
