Here you'll find every fixed-location item in the E3 world, or as close as I can get.
When you open a container in Eschalon, what you get might be randomized, or it might be fixed (guaranteed). It's possible that the quality of a fixed item may also improve depending on your character level (or experience total) when you open the container. This was true in E2, but may not be true in E3. As I did for E1, I'm testing everything to see what's what - and providing a convenient reference where you can find all the details.
I'll also provide some helpful lists (like trainers and books) that are useful in planning out your character builds.
Now, unlike my E1 effort, I'm not trying to find everything in one go this time. In fact, I've been exploring with no Spot Hidden skill at all - I've just got whatever my 20 Perception gives. So I'm most certainly missing some things, at least at first. That gives you a chance to chime in and share what else you've found! Just let me know at the bottom of this thread.
Here we go...

Random drop possibilities appear to be a function of both player experience (checking experience point total not level) and location. In some cases I have indicated the equivalent experience level at which I started to encounter various drops. My testing is not exhaustive, so it's very possible you may encounter something at a lower level than I did.
