Cube Calculator
Free Task Bar Hero crafting calculator weighing datamined grade odds against live Steam Market prices, so you see a craft's value first. Calculate now.
The Task Bar Hero cube crafts gear from raw materials. There are 56 crafting recipes across 8 tiers and 7 equipment slots (Accessory, Armor, Boots, Gloves, Helmet, MainWeapon, SubWeapon). Each tier consumes a fixed pair of materials and rolls an output grade against the odds below.
Higher tiers cost rarer materials but shift the grade odds upward — the chance of a Legendary or better result grows with every tier, while the base Uncommon chance shrinks.
