Overview

Cube

The Cube is Task Bar Hero's all-in-one crafting station. Level it up to unlock eight operations that transform, upgrade and enchant your gear.

Operations

Unlock progression

Each operation unlocks at a cube level, for a one-time gold cost.

Cube leveling

Each item the Cube consumes is worth a base amount set by four factors, then scaled by how close the item's level is to the cube's, and finally boosted by any Cube EXP % bonus. The result is rounded down.

EXP = ⌊ grade × item lv × gear type × item type ⌋ × level match × (1 + Cube EXP %)

Item level

Higher-level gear is worth far more — but only if its level is close to the cube's.

Good to know

  • There is no level requirement: you can always melt gear and gain some EXP — it is never exactly zero, just smaller for big level gaps.
  • Level 100 gear loses its item-level factor entirely, so it grants very little Cube EXP — do not farm it for leveling.
  • Rune and pet Cube EXP % bonuses multiply all the Cube EXP you gain.
  • Alchemy gold uses the same grade, level and type factors as EXP, but without level matching.

Each operation grants Cube EXP based on the grade of the items involved. The amount also depends on item level versus the cube level: items at or just above the cube level give the most EXP, while items far from it give almost none.
