Now that higher tiers of GoD are opening up, I thought I'd compile a list of what I believe are the BiS items for warriors pre-GoD.
Frequently Used Augments:
Elemental Core is 75ac from Plane of Air
Crest of Valor is 30ac 120hp 200 mana from Hall of Honor
Gore-Covered Tombstone Shard is 60ac 120hp from the Gambler in guildlobby
Diaku Armor Fragment is 30ac 60hp and some other stats from Plane of Tactics
- Head - Helm of Flowing Time; Vallon Zek in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Face - Faceguard of Frenzy; Avatar of the Elements/Supernatural Guardian in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Ear 1 - Tharkis' Platinum Stud; Avatar of Crushbone in Crushbone - Aug Crest of Valor (runner up Silver Hoop of Speed from Quarm in Time)
- Ear 2 - Tharkis' Platinum Stud; Avatar of Crushbone in Crushbone - Aug Crest of Valor
- Chest - Raex's Chestplate of Destruction; Quarm in Time/Mayong in mistmoore (drops mold for elemental BP)- Aug Elemental Core and Gore-Covered Tombstone Shard
- Arms - Armguards of the Brute; Terris Thule in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Waist - Girdle of Intense Durability; Saryrn in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Bracer 1 - Earthen Bracer of Fortitude from Quarm in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Bracer 2 - Earthen Bracer of Fortitude from Quarm in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Legs - Greaves of Furious Might from Cazic Thule in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Neck - Necklace of Eternal Visions; Innoruk in time - Aug Elemental Core
- Back - Magical Guardian of Fae from Avatar of Fae in Lesser Faydark - Aug Gore-Covered Tombstone and Crest of Valor (runner up Aegis of the Valiant - Aug Crest of Valor and Diaku Armor Fragment)
- Shoulders - Pauldrons of Devastation from Rallos Zek in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Feet - Boots of Despair from Bertoxxulous in Time - Aug Crest of Valor
- Hands - Gauntlets of Disruption from early wave named in Time - Aug Elemental Core
- Charm - Charm of Discord from Quarm in Time (drops key needed for turn in) Aug Fragment of Mistmoore from Mayong in Mistmoore and Pickclaw Trinket from Gambler in guildlobby
- Ring 1 - Bloodmoon Ring from Avatar of Crushbone in Crushbone - Aug Gore-Covered Tombstone and Crest of Valor (runner up Band of Primodial Energy from Rallos Zek or Prismatic Ring of Resistance from Quarm; )
- Ring 2 - Mayong Mistmoore's Ring from Mayong in Mistmoore - Aug Gore-Covered Tombstone and Crest of Valor
- Range - Majestic Boomerang from Avatar of Fae - Aug Gore-Covered Tombstone and Diaku Armor Fragment (runner up Stone of Flowing Time from Quarm)
- Ammo - Ton Po's Mystical Pouch (no stats) from Rallos Zek in Time - useful for summoning throwing items for pulling
- Primary 1 - Quarken's Sword of Hypnotic Purple Hues from AA vendor in guildlobby
- Primary 2 - Quarken's Sword of Hypnotic Purple Hues
Before you get Quarken's you can use a variety of weapons; just grab something from time and go to town. Darkblade of the Warlord from Rallos Zek in time is especially good.
If you need a shield for some reason (you shouldn't), Shield of Strife also from Rallos Zek in time is the best one.
2 Handers are bad for warriors; dual wield is superior.
Weapon Augments:
Right now I am using Jade of the Ether (Rune III) from guildlobby vendor and Bite of the dark serpent from the AA vendor in guildlobby. Unfortunately the AA vendor in lobby is down so I can't buy augs or check names or stats, but once the AA vendor is fixed, I will buy the other AA augments and use them. This will leave one slot open in which I will probably just keep using the Rune III augment. If I were trying to win an AC competition or had nothing better I would use Diaku Armor Fragment in one slot and Rune III in the others.
Food: AA food (Imperium Feast or something like that) from AA vendor in guildlobby
Drink: AA drink (Imperium Drink or something like that) from AA vendor in guildlobby
Clickies:
Probably a bunch, but the only one i use all the time is Mayong Mistmoore's Robe from Mayong in Mistmoore for the Form of Defense VII Click. There are also others like the Master Sword of the Gathering for an ATK increase or various procs/regens but I don't find them worth the buff slot. \
Epic 1.5 - I don't have it, but it has a click effect; +hp/chance to ignore spells
Breastplate of Emblazoned Souls (SK Ornate BP) - apparently this is clickable and adds a lifetap proc - Thanks Maelik!
Some people use Songblade of the Eternal from Innoruuk for the Symphony of Battle click, but it is basically just +ATK when you are at the haste cap.
Old school is to use Primal weapons from Sleeper's to proc avatar for the ATK buff, but if you have a shaman this isn't needed.
Summary:
With the above gear I have 39887hp and 8792ac using only guildlobby buffer buffs and the Mayong robe click. This will get a bump when I can buy the last AA augments I need and the stat food from the AA vendor.
Other classes: Use the above gear as a baseline; I think the only thing that is War only is the elemental BP and the weapons.
Is there a better pre-GoD item I am missing? Let me know!
Have questions? Ask me!

EDIT: Greaves of Furious Might are better than Raex's Greaves due to their heroic stats; you trade 3 Accuracy and 1ac for 440hp - I checked in #mystats
