Chest boxes are one of the most important loot sources in Task Bar Heroes. Nearly every piece of equipment, material, Soulstone, and upgrade resource comes from farming monster boxes, stage boss boxes, and act boss boxes. Knowing where each box drops can help you farm more efficiently and target the rewards you actually need. This guide covers every major box type, where they drop, and the rewards you can expect from them.

Best Boxes to Farm
If your goal is basic gear progression, focus on Normal Monster Boxes that match your current level range. For Soulstones, Stage Boss Boxes are the best option since they regularly include Normal, Nightmare, Hell, and Torment Soulstones. Players looking for Legendary and Immortal Materials should prioritize Act Boss Boxes from Nightmare, Hell, and Torment difficulties.
Final Thoughts
Task Bar Heroes currently features dozens of chest boxes across Normal, Nightmare, Hell, and Torment difficulties. While Monster Boxes are useful for steady gear farming, Stage Boss Boxes introduce valuable Soulstones, and Act Boss Boxes become the primary source of Rare, Legendary, and Immortal rewards.
As you progress through higher difficulties, focusing on the right box type can dramatically improve your farming efficiency and help you obtain stronger gear much faster.
