What is EMC?

EMC (Energy-Matter Covalence) is ProjectE's core currency. Every item has an EMC value. The Philosopher's Stone and Transmutation Table convert items to/from EMC. Core principle: EMC input = EMC output (conservation law).

Key Item EMC Values

Dirt 1, Cobblestone 1, Coal 128, Redstone 64, Lapis 864, Blaze Rod 1536, Iron Ingot 256, Gold Ingot 2048, Diamond 8192, Emerald 16384, Nether Star 139264, Dragon Egg 262144.

Best EMC Sources

1. Blaze Rod farm (Nether spawner) — 1536 EMC each, best mid-game. 2. Auto sugar cane -> EMC Collector — free, automated. 3. Nautilus shells (drowned farm) — 1024 EMC. 4. Ultimate: Energy Condenser MK3 + Antimatter Relay — auto-converts items into Dark/Red Matter.

Warning: Red Matter has extremely high EMC. One piece can exchange for 400+ diamonds. Continuous red matter production is the ultimate EMC path.
