Task Bar Hero v1.00.13 Hotfix: Invalid Chests, Legacy Gear, and Act Boss Chest Flow

The latest official Task Bar Hero update is v1.00.13. It is a hotfix after the v1.00.12 server migration, focused on invalid chest behavior after reconnecting, legacy equipment upgrade actions, Alchemy gold display, and safer Act Boss chest flow.

This is an unofficial player-facing summary of the official v1.00.13 Steam announcement. Check the current client and official Steam news before making valuable item or Market decisions.

What Changed?

  • Fixed an issue where invalid chests could be received too quickly after reconnecting.
  • Fixed Decoration, Engraving, and Inscription not applying to non-synthesizable legacy equipment.
  • Fixed Alchemy floating text showing gold without the Rune buff effect, even though the actual gained amount was different.
  • Fixed Act Boss flow so the next Act Boss battle does not begin before the Act Boss chest has been received.
  • This hotfix follows the larger v1.00.12 server migration, so item safety, mailbox, and Market checks still matter.

Player Impact

  • Players who reconnect frequently should see safer chest behavior, but should still avoid repeated reconnect loops when servers feel unstable.
  • Legacy equipment can be reviewed again for Decoration, Engraving, and Inscription actions instead of being treated as permanently blocked.
  • Alchemy gold display should better match the actual result when Rune buffs affect the gain.
  • Act Boss farming should be less likely to skip ahead before the chest reward is received.
  • The update does not by itself confirm Steam Market listing reopening; Market status still depends on server stability and later official notices.

What To Do Now

  • Update to v1.00.13 before farming Act Boss chests or testing legacy equipment actions.
  • Claim Act Boss chests before starting another boss loop.
  • Check Mailbox and chest counts calmly if rewards appear delayed after reconnecting.
  • Review legacy equipment one item at a time before applying Decoration, Engraving, or Inscription materials.
  • Use the v1.00.12 background update before making high-value Market or inventory decisions.
