Kaur's War Chest can be found in a shack just west of Fairfield on Paradise Island. This is the first planet and location you'll find yourself in after the opening mission, and Fairfield is the capital city near where you land The Incognito. In the image above, I've marked the exact location of the hut where you'll find Kaur's War Chest.

Once you get here, head inside and you'll find a large chest on the floor directly from where you enter. When you try to work with it, you will find out you either need Kaur's War Chest Keycard to open it, or you have a level 5 Lockpick skill and one Mag-Pick to get in without it..

You get two skill points every time you level up, and Mag-Picks can be bought from vendors or found around the world fairly easily, so it shouldn't take you too long to meet the cardless entry requirements.

For those looking to get the keycard, you will need to get the Pickpocket perk first. This requires you to have the Lockpick skill at level 1 before you can get it with the perk. Once you've done that, you need to head to the large building where you originally talked to her and Milverstreet and had to decide whether to side with one or the other. Head into her office from the main room and sneak up behind her. Once you're close enough, you'll be able to steal it and grab Kaur's War Chest Keycard.

The War Chest contains a bunch of different items, including Bits, the Designator Triple Shotgun, and Kaur's Korroder.. If you have the “Treasure Hunter” perk, you can also find additional pieces and materials for crafting.

If you have already helped Kaur during the 'Beyond Repair' quest, then the chest will not contain Kaur's Korroder as you will receive it as a quest reward.
