Where are the Training Dummies in Classic WOW?

The Solo MMO Player wanted to know where the training dummies are located in Classic WOW so he can try out some macros he's written. Sadly, according to Blizzard there are no target dummies in Classic.  There are target dummy NPCs in Undercity but they are not attackable.

Here's a list of their locations if you are playing Retail WOW.

Dungeons in Guild Wars 2

There are nine dungeons currently in GW2 (and some that are available during various holiday events only).  You have to be a certain minimal level to enter each.  Each dungeon has a story mode and an explorable mode which you can do after completing the story mode and advancing you level.  It looks like you run dungeons in groups.  Here's more information but once you hit level 25, the game will send you a letter explaining how you will be notified about dungeons that are available to you.
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Dungeon

This guide to dungeons in Guild Wars 2 has a list of eight of the nine (but the guides are finished for only half of them).  There's a map of their locations, but it isn't too clear.
http://guildwars2grandmaster.com/dungeon-guides/

The same website also has a guide to farming dungeons for tokens, which you trade to the dungeon's vendors.

Guild Wars 2: Trainer Locations

Trainers are difficult to find in GW2.  Here's where profession and commander trainers can be found:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Trainer

Crafting trainers are called Master Craftsmen.  They are listed by craft and then location here.  Generally once you find one crafting trainer, the others in that location will be nearby.  Remember, you have to choose "Please teach me" from the dialogues to be taught the craft.  It isn't enough just to find the trainer for the craft you want to learn.

Kingdom of Amalur: Finding Crudok

They aren't easy to find, particularly when the inarticulate are pointing the way.
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/991143-kingdoms-of-amalur-reckoning/61943371

Please note that the Crudok near the Widow's Castle (also known as Castle Yovan) respawns.  The Solo MMO player killed it there earlier before he was hunting Crudok and killed it there twice more after he was hunting them.  After the spawn point between the main castle and battlement wall, run along the battlement wall.  It will pop up from underground if you trigger it by running over the right spot.

Coming out of the Hollowlands at the point of entrance to Menetrye, a Crudock and two spiders will spawn per the Solo MMO Player (Aggressive Brownies is the prior quest given by the same guy.)

The Solo MMO Player found another Crudock which you have to kill during the quest The Brownie Den which is the second par of a two part quest line you get from Sihtric Vorn.

Here is a partial list of places to purchase a backpack to increase your inventory carry capacity.  Make sure you read how this works.
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/991144-kingdoms-of-amalur-reckoning/61895527

Five locations with names of four vendors (no names for the last location)

Here is a guide to all the backpack vendors, complete with photos and more explicit directions as to where they might be.

Doesn't look like you can craft backpacks, but I'm not certain.

The new Elder Scrolls wiki has four interactive maps, one for each general region, on their site.  Choose an area and that will load below the four regional thumbnail maps.  The icon legend is at the bottom of the page.

Here's the map with annotations to help you find places.

SkyRim Dragon Shouts

Here is a guide to shouts.  It tells you what each does and then gives a location.  I suggest you choose the shout you are interested in, then look it up at the original Elder Scrolls wiki (second link) for details.

Skyrim: Weapons UPDATED

Here's a list of magic weapons. There are no locations listed, unfortunately.  The long table lists Name/ID#/weight/value/charge cost formula/enchantment on weapon.
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Imperial_Bow_of_Ice#Imperial_Bow_of_Ice

I've found a shorter list with locations here.  The descriptions are geared toward where to find the weapon more than what it does.

UPDATE:  Another list of unique weapons and their locations.
