Once it gets clicked, give or take around a minute later, a new cube will spawn in one of the locations.<\/p>\n<p>The easiest way to gather your cubes seems to be to travel in a loop between all the locations. If you find a cube, right-click it, then wait about a minute to see if it respawns before moving on, since it has a random chance of respawning right where you are. If it does spawn, continue your loop until you can find the next place it spawned. If someone else is also searching and getting in your way, don&#8217;t forget you can use the big Map to change instances with the drop down in the bottom right of the big map.<\/p>\n<p>In the map I&#8217;ve made here, I was able to confirm for myself the green locations, and the yellow locations seem to be other confirmed locations. There&#8217;s a great thread on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swtor.com\/community\/showthread.php?t=113717&amp;page=10\">SWTOR.com forums<\/a> where players were sharing locations back from the game&#8217;s launch, and apparently these cubes are also hidden in the High Security Station in the southern part of Belsavis, though I didn&#8217;t go searching there.<\/p>\n<p>Once you find and pick up a Rakata energy Cube, it will show up as an item in your inventory. They can be traded to a friend or put in a guild bank, but they can not be sold or bought on the GTN. This means you can go hunting for the cubes with your friend, and combine your four cubes on one character, but all still get the matrix shard in the end together.<\/p>\n<p>If you have already gotten this matrix shard for your legacy, you will be able to see the cubes, but won&#8217;t be able to right-click them to pick them up.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/beslavis-matrix-cubes-map.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2283\" src=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/beslavis-matrix-cubes-map.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Find the Hidden Elevator<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/belsavis-matrix-elevator.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2441\" src=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/belsavis-matrix-elevator.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1390\" height=\"1421\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/datacrons-guide-Screenshot-11448.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2451\" src=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/datacrons-guide-Screenshot-11448.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"688\" height=\"387\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Activate the Rakata Energy Cubes<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/belsavis-matrix-shard-buttons.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2440\" src=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/belsavis-matrix-shard-buttons.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1390\" height=\"1421\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once you get off the elevator, head forwards in the underground tunnel until you find a terminal that has four blue rectangle buttons and one larger blue button on the right.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/datacrons-guide-Screenshot-11449.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2442\" src=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/datacrons-guide-Screenshot-11449.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"688\" height=\"387\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you are doing this as part of a group, you&#8217;ll want to make sure your whole group is nearby before you activate the terminals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/datacrons-guide-Screenshot-11454.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2446\" src=\"https:\/\/swtorista.com\/articles\/datacrons\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2022\/02\/datacrons-guide-Screenshot-11454.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"688\" height=\"387\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To activate the matrix shard, right click each of the rectangle blue buttons and choose &#8220;Insert Rakata energy Cube&#8221;.
