The Polarization Devices are referenced again in a cipher from the map Classified, suggesting Ultimis Richtofen was involved in the creation of one or more polarization devices.

History[]
The three Polarization Devices are respectively used in the plans of both Maxis and Richtofen:
Maxis uses their energy to reach Agartha, and dethrone Richtofen as the Demonic Announcer, and entrap his soul in Zombie corpses. He also reunites with his daughter Samantha as he plucks her soul from Richtofen's dead corpse in Moon. Richtofen in his Zomibified form says that "There has to be a way to break the cycle!".
Richtofen uses them to assume full control of the Aether, and mend the Rift by reinforcing the link between Aether and Earth. Maxis blames Richtofen for eternally damning Samantha, and Richtofen appears to remove this Maxis from existence. Richtofen says he has the ability to enter any body he wishes, and chooses to enter Samuel J. Stuhlinger's body, as his eyes turn blue.
In a cipher from the map Classified, as in part of Richtofen's demands for Operation Stapler, Richtofen asks the United States to build a Polarization Device in a location to his specification. Another document from Classified by Cornelius Pernell saying there was a similar deal with the Soviets with several matching items between both lists.

Trivia[]
- If a match starts with a player that has activated a spire in Richtofen's favor and a player that has activated it in Maxis' favor, it will shine in both blue and orange colors.
