Error cube, what is it?

[Zuppiera]

Hello, I did two missions the other day in a row, and in both missions I found a white Cube called "Err:" and some characters which i cant remember. I deposited it but I don't understand what is it for? I am new to the game

It's a rare mineral that gives a big boost to exp.

Ah ok, thank you!!!

There's an in-joke that the error cubes are to be used for something, but nobody knows what. But otherwise it gives you lots of XP, and you can collect them too. Make that number go up.

You can check how many you have at the accessory shop. You can't buy anything with them, but you can still look at them and appreciate how cubic they are.
Wait, I looked and I can't see mine. Am I losing my mind? Positive you can check them somewhere.

i think they mentioned it does have a purpose, but that from a gameplay pov they haven't given it one yet. Right now their only purpose is to be collected for the achievement.

Okay, it turns out season 5 has hidden them. This is a terrible change and I hate it. Maybe the worst event in the history of mankind? Very bad.

I think at this point it's reasonable to assume they'll never do anything other than give out experience/an achievement. If they were going to do something with them they'd have done it already.

Them not showing up in the shop on the experimental server is likely an oversight or a bug I would think.

It might be deliberate. It's not like you can actually buy anything with them, after all. But it'll still make me really sad if it is.

I think I remember that happening before on the experimental is all, but I might be wrong lol.

There's also the possibility of your experimental save being from a time before you had any Err cubes.

It's not. That'd be one ancient save.

It's a placeholder item for when GSG fails to code material costs properly, also serves as a novelty collectible that can rarely be found during missions.

Whoever management sends after me will meet doom worse than Karl.

The fact that Error Cubes show in the Deep Dive console might be a hint.

You are supposed to eat it.
