There is a giant cube floating around in Borderlands 3. This mysterious cube located in Desolation’s Edge on Nekrotafeyo is actually a secret puzzle. You will be rewarded with loot once you manage to complete it!
How To Solve The Desolation Cube Puzzle
- Go to the giant rotation cube that’s floating in the air
The Puzzle cube is located in Desolation’s Edge on Nekrotafeyo. Here is a map with its exact location.
- Shoot into the holes on each side of the cube
The solution to this puzzle is that each side of the cube needs to be hit by a specific damage type.
There are 6 sides to the cube and 6 damage types; Kinetic, Incendiary, Corrosive, Shock, Cryo, or Radiation. Avoid using weapons with a slow projectile speed. - Light up every piece of the puzzle cube
You completed the puzzle once every side of the cube is glowing. Then it will stop rotating and drop a bunch of quality loot with a high chance of dropping legendaries.
You can only solve the cube once per playthrough (Normal + TVHM) and therefore it cannot be farmed consistently. If you see a solid cube that means you can unlock its reward. While the cube initially disappears after solving it, a broken cube will take its place once you reload the map.
