If the fight is failing, use the solver. If the route feels bad, use the farming advisor. If two stages compete, use the efficiency calculator. If an item has competing uses, use the item checker. If the spend feels expensive, use the Rune/Cube planner.

Open toolSource and data policy
Useful advice without fake certainty
The site is intentionally smaller than datamined databases. The tradeoff is lower maintenance risk and clearer confidence labels for players who only need the next action.
Fan-made and unofficial
Task Bar Hero Tools is not affiliated with the game developers, publishers, Steam, Valve, or any competitor site.
No hidden formulas
The site does not claim server access, datamined internals, exact drop rates, guaranteed Soulstone drops, or official build rules.
Confidence labels stay visible
Player reports, manual notes, estimates, and needs-verification claims are separated so advice does not look stronger than it is.
No account or upload required
The current tools run in the browser and do not ask for a login, payment, save-file upload, or Steam account connection.
FAQ
Task Bar Hero Tools FAQ
Short answers for players comparing this site with Drop Finders, Rune Planners, databases, and mobile companion apps.
Are these official Task Bar Hero tools?
No. They are unofficial fan-made helpers. Game names, systems, and terms belong to their respective owners.
Which tool should I use first?
Use the Stuck Boss Solver for combat walls, the Farming Efficiency Calculator to compare two stages, the Soulstone Advisor for route decisions, the Item Value Checker for keep/craft/sell questions, and the Rune/Cube Planner for gold-spend decisions.
Do you publish exact drop rates?
No. This site avoids exact drop-rate claims unless a durable source process exists. Current farming pages use player reports, manual notes, estimates, and visible caveats.
Why is there no full Drop Finder yet?
A full Drop Finder needs durable item and stage data. The current site is a light-test tools hub, so it focuses on decisions that can be explained without pretending to own official loot tables.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No account, save file, or Steam inventory is required by the current live tools. Copy actions and page analytics may record non-personal interaction events such as selected presets or page path.
