They serve as part of the Ark's self-sufficiency measures, and act as surface access points to the installation's vast subterranean network of power infrastructure. When accessed, a Power Node can be used to provide auxiliary power for repairs and emergencies on the Ark, or can be tapped by other forces to exploit the installation for their own benefit.{{Ref/Game|Id=PL|HW2|Phoenix Logs|Detail=Forerunner Power Node}} | ||
During the [[Second Ark Conflict]], stranded light years from any support, the strategic importance of Forerunner power nodes was capitalised upon by both the [[United Nations Space Command]] detachment from {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} and the [[Banished]].
