    Well, I just mined 500 trunks got 0 cubes, I think you got extremely lucky or I got extremely unlucky.

    Well, I just mined 500 trunks got 0 cubes, I think you got extremely lucky or I got extremely unlucky.

    I just mined 1300 trunks and got 3 cubes o.o, definitely faster than mining regular blocks.

    Yes, I agree now. I just mined 1,OOO Trunks with Prof' Killer and got 1x Purple 1x Red Cube. Gonna add this to my Thread about Cubes, I'd love to know about some more faster mining methods. :)

    well then another reason for me to mine trunks :D I love wood and I definitely want cubes

    Same!
  • I needed 235 trunks for benches, I got a purple cube. Pretty useful, reminds me of this old mining trick where you keep on mining trunks, it used to give a lot more cubits.

    i think we have a multiplier of chance of getting cubes in rarest ressource, when we mine sand or dirt we have low chance, but with wood, or iron/stone/silver/gold... we have more chance. (i think)

    i think we have a multiplier of chance of getting cubes in rarest ressource, when we mine sand or dirt we have low chance, but with wood, or iron/stone/silver/gold... we have more chance. (i think)

    Make it clear a bit:
    Based on what I heard from everyone, I can estimate that the chance of getting cubes:

    Red: 0.1%
    Purple: 0.05%
    Blue: 0.03%
    Green: 0.02%


    This is NOT the exact chance of getting the cubes, as the only one(s) who know it is the people who coded it.

    So, for example, if you mine a 3-block tall tree, the chance of getting a red cube is: 0.3% (3 times higher)
  • i mined 400 oil , got 1 red cube , 1 purple cube and 1 blue cube.

    i mined 400 oil , got 1 red cube , 1 purple cube and 1 blue cube.

    Lucky, maybe mining liquids and trees would increase chances of getting dehydrated cubes?

    or maybe the blocks which are mined very less by Qbess?

    i think red, purple and blue have same drop chance.

    i would estimate drop chance like this, but it looks a bit wrong:

    with sand or dirt -- i didn't added player who say they get nothing when mining 5k+ blocks because they are probably exaggerating, if i add them total chance would be something like 1 Dehydrated Cube each 2500Blocks or more:
    Red: 0.05%
    Purple: 0.05%
    Blue: 0.05%
    Green: 0.017%

    Total: 0.167% ~ 1Dehydrated Cubes each 600Blocks

    with tree trunk or oil - only people from this discussion and that i've seen in game.
    Red: 0.0885%
    Purple: 0.0885%
    Blue: 0.0885%
    Green: 0.0205%
    Total: 0.286% ~ 1Dehydrated Cube every 350Blocks
    = 1.7 more chance. but there isn't enough people for confirm this and with the test i've made myself, i don't think that ressource rarity is important anymore look my spoiler about my own experience for know more.



    with my own experience:

    i will only do the total drop chance.
    (notice that i've never tried with dirt or sand)

    - i got 1Dehydrated Cube ± every 800 cotton/Frostberries/Yumberries collected

    = 0.1% of getting 1Dehydrated cube. = 1Cube every 800 Clicks / 800Blocks

    with tree trunk i got 1 Red Dehydrated Cube after 371 Pine Trunk + 464 Pine Bough = 835Blocks BUT 1Tree is 2Trunk + 2Leaves (there is also trees of 1-3Trunks, 1-3Leaves, but we will consider them like 2-2 Trees) so 835/4 = 209Clicks.

    So chance of getting 1Dehydrated is x4 because we break 4Blocks per click instead of 1Block per click.

    -------

    I have also tried with scaffolding blocks, so i've placed down 2k blocks (was long and boring) but it dropped nothing because scaffolding blocks can't drop cubits. (i haven't tried with the Blue Scaffolding, but it don't worth it because too long to place)
