Core of Benediction is a material related to the Abyss system in Crimson Desert. The structural core of the power device of the Sanctum of Benediction. This vital component can only be salvaged once the fusion reactor sensors lock onto a specific resonance. It serves as the essential bedrock for stabilizing and channeling the sanctum's volatile energy reserves.

This item can be obtained through various activities in the world.
The Core of Benediction is obtained by completing the Sanctum of Benediction puzzle. The Sanctum is located on the left side of the map, below the letters H and E of Hernand on the world map, up in the snowy mountain area.
Ride your horse to the Sanctum location. As you approach, you will see ruins and rubble scattered around the area. At the top, enemies guard the Sanctum as they do in all Sanctums across Pywel. You must defeat all of them before proceeding. There will be several waves of enemies, but they are not especially difficult. After the last enemy falls, a cutscene plays.
After the cutscene, you spawn leaning against a wall near a kiln. From the kiln, run down the steps in the center and take the first right into a small room. Next to the golden well in the corner, you will find a large block. Pick it up (either store it in your Kuku Iron Pot or carry it manually) and bring it back up to the kiln. Slot it into the side of the kiln and hit it with a Force Palm to lock it in place.
Turn around from the kiln and loop all the way around the large structure. Go through the archway and you will see a suspicious doorway with a solid wall blocking it. Light the lantern on the side of the wall to open the passage. Inside you will find a chest and the second puzzle piece. Open the chest first, as it contains a piece of armor with a strong Abyss Cell modifier for extra Turning Slash damage (a highly recommended piece of gear). Then pick up the puzzle block and carry it back outside to the kiln.
With the second block in hand, you need to fix the tower on the corner pillar near the kiln. Place the tower piece on the pillar in the back left corner. Line it up carefully; when green leaves start appearing around it, that means it is properly aligned. Lock it in place with a Force Palm. You can climb the pillar and do a jumping Aerial Force Palm from above, or simply use a Force Palm from the ground combined with a grapple hook.
Once the tower is restored, the entire kiln powers up and the Sanctum is restored. A cutscene plays with the Witch of this area. After the cutscene, you must complete a rhythm-based minigame. Press L1 and R1 to start Blinding Light, then tap L1 for every circle that lines up with the groove at the top. When you see a double circle, hold L1 down instead of tapping. Continue until all indicators are completed.
When the minigame is finished, the kiln activates fully and produces the Core of Benediction at the top. Use your grapple hook to grab it and press Triangle to store it in your Kuku Iron Pot. The Core of Benediction is now yours.
Materials are used in various crafting and refinement recipes.
