Good Pre-Planar DEX gear?
 
So anyhow, I have a 20 DWF WAR with 25 points into STA. Dwarf base DEX for WARs is 90, and I am looking to get as close to 150 as I can, without breaking the bank. I already have 2 Fire platinum rings + a CoS, a +7 DEX +7 AGI necklace, a Grotesque Mask and 2x Bracer of Battle (+3 DEX each).

The bracers are from CB, and need to go, but with them, I am at 133 DEX, unbuffed. You guys have any ideas for DEX gear I should look for the help reach my goal?

Replace a Bracer of Battle with a Bracer of Scavenging around 900pp for +2 more dex. Replace other bracer of battle with a fire emerald electrum bracelet or platinum onyx bracelet both are cheap and are +5 dex and +6 dex respectively.

Carnal Pauldrons are no drop +7 dex from soldungb. You can get them while leveling or ask for the rot.

Incarnadine Boots are +6 dex, however, run around 9k.

Those changes will add 17-18 more dexterity.

Edit: You can opt for an incarnadine BP for +15 more dexterity, but that will cost you around 25k and most likely will be "breaking the bank"

Kylong arm guards run 200-300pp

Personally think you should examine whether reaching the goal is wise to begin with.

Pre-planar/raid gear you are sacrificing mass alot of ac/hp to up your dex. The benefit of that dex is that you proc more. However, you can't even proc the good agro weapons at your level so you are giving away important stats for next to nothing.

shit dies too quick at level 20 to care about dex (by extension, proc rate, of which no worthwhile proc weapons really exist at 20)

care about dps and hp and group with someone who can root

care about dex when you're level 45+ and dumb groups think you're a better idea than an SK/paladin

Agree, dont worry about dex until 46+ when u can get a sarnak hammer and troch skean.

Good wars are a better idea than sk/pally. Better dps, mitigation, and no xp penalty. But agree that a shitty warrior is tough to deal with.

Agreed. Wouldn't worry about DEX until you're at least 40.

Some of the good DEX gear I have on my ogre war that don't result in a really bad AC/DEX tradeoff:

Cloak of Shadows
Bracer of Scavenging
Crafted Bracer
Incarnadine Breastplate
Incarnadine Boots
Golden Black Pearl Choker
Grotesque Mask
Forest Loops
Carnal Pauldrons
Spectral Bow

Most of this stuff is actually pretty cheap as well, save the incarnadine stuff. You can even get Carnal Pauldrons and Spectral Bow for free if you show up in SolB/TT at the right time.

Not to be contrarian or anything, but dex before 45 isn't outright useless. My warrior wore limited dex gear that didn't sacrifice too much until he got his combat skills maxed each time he gained a level. It's cheap and easy to armor up well beyond any useful value for AC at low levels here. I liked to carry +dex pieces to maximize fun when I got opportunities to 'zerk duo with a shaman while levelling up, just keep high AC/HP value items equipped in the slots you can't get +dex/+str. It is possible to have fun times even before you raid with a char. "Grind" is as much a state of mind as anything else, go ahead and reject that ugly Debbie Downer worldview, it's a game, play it and have some fun.
