Greetings Chests Hunters!
This is Part 3 of my Sumeru Desert Common Chest guide. There are a total of 201 Common Chests found in the desert. Due to the sheer amount of chests, the Sumeru Desert Common Chest guide is broken up into the following:
Part 1: Land of Lower Setekh: 1 - 71
Part 2: Land of Upper Setekh: 72 - 111
Part 3: Hypostyle Desert: 112 - 201 (You are here!)
For those who are looking for guides on the other types of Sumeru Desert chests, check out the link below:
Max Counts / All Chests for Sumeru Desert
This makes a total of 2373 Common Chests in the game. If you have higher than this number, you can check out the link below explaining bugs in the battle chronicle chest count.

Guide Notes / Suggestions
1. Much of the Sumeru Desert exploration is locked behind quests, so I would highly suggest completing the Golden Slumber, Old Notes and New Friends, and Afratu's Dilema World Quests before conducting your chest sweeps
2. Missable Chest(s): Vase Chest (Chest 152)
3. The guide below is divided into an Above Ground and Below Ground section to make it easier to locate the chests.
