War Caches are small dungeons in the Ilmari Desert that can be reached by taking a quest given by Sir Johnson.
Each unique War Cache will have a code identifier in the quest log. (e.g. "S-2" or "T-1")
Maps
Each time a player visits a War Cache, the map will appear fogged, and no Cartography experience will be given for exploration. However, each War Cache will have the same map layout and location of chests, bosses, and rune clues.

War Cache S-1
“Let's get right to work. The Sand Seer has located a new war cache entrance. Follow this map. Remember: the entrance isn't stable.

Points of Interest
Minotaur Vault
Each War Cache contains one Minotaur Vault, a special type of chest that may be opened by solving a Mastermind-style code breaking puzzle.
Rune Clues
There are 12 possible runes for the Minotaur Vault, but only six will be used for a given puzzle. These are labeled on wall decorations. The rune clues and vault solution are instanced per player.
