How do I get cubes without spending Nx?
I remember there being occult cubes before I quit, those were pretty accessible. However now that I've heard that they have been removed and supposedly replaced with a "better" system. Back then I could at least get my potentials to the ones I wanted, now I have no idea how to get cubes. Most of my gear is rare crappy pot'ed and I have no idea what to do. How do I farm for these new cubes? I have rarely seen them drop at all, I tried bossing within bosses of my range (100k) and farming mobs. Both yield a pretty low amount of cubes. Is there something I'm missing? The old system had far more availability as it seemed to me. Someone please tell me a way to get some cubes without paying NX. Is making an alt blacksmither worth it?

Star planet for reward points.
Also, you shouldn't be cubing anything until you have at least 200k range, it's much cheaper to buy your gear/make links/trace.
The best way I've found is to get both gathering skills and go around and get the big collectables. I usually get a cube every 3-4 times.
- Reward Points system lets you get 5 Red cubes and 5 Black cubes per month (I think?)
- Bosses drops them at a way higher rate then mobs and you can usually get one ~ 2 a day depending on your daily routine
- From hunting mobs. You can either just hunt them for Elite Monsters & Bosses, which I'm pretty sure can drop them either directly or through the bonus stage. Or you can train a low leveled character because I've found that I can find usually 1-2 cubes while training a character from 1~120. But after like 140 I almost never get a cube as a mob drop.
- Craft them but this method is really expensive..
Kill some bosses, get Reward Points, use them to buy cubes.
