You can try the goos in Wakening Lands. There is a large open room with like 5 or 6 goos that are all far enough apart to where you can solo pull them by default. They are great xp and money at least until 57. They are also very easy for Velious mobs. On my Shadowknight I was face tanking them at level 56 and 57 just fine, no need to fear kite. But it may be tougher at 52, I haven't tried them at 52. It probably depends on your gear, which is unknown right now. The super nice thing about the goos is when they die, they spawn two low level goos. They drop the items (not the big goo), which means you get a 2x shot at a good vendor trash money item each kill. Also, because they are low level, they are great lifetap targets. They shouldn't really do any significant damage to you due to the level difference. If you have 2x bloodpoints, you will generally get a few procs off of the two low level goos to help quickly recover for the next fight.

I am not sure how well warriors can solo higher level guards. Kaladim Guards will probably be too hard, since they all have shields and dual wield with their shields lol. They hit like a truck. Felwithe guards cast spells and heal, so you really need to be able to fear kite them or interrupt them consistently. Since I generally play evil characters, I don't know too much about killing Troll/Ogre/Dark Elf Guards, so I can't really say how easy/hard they are at 52.

Maybe Butcherblock hut guards or dock guards would be doable. I think there are a few level 40 guards in BB, and they don't generally have two weapons or a weapon + shield for dual wielding, which will help reduce their damage. You can also sell their weapons at the Druid Ring merchant, who is indifferent to all. City guards in Classic can basically take anyone up to 55, at which point they generally green out sadly.

With the recent ZEM buffs there are some other solo options you can try. The trash outside of Karnors Castle should be pretty decent XP, and solo pullable if you are good at pulling roaming trash. You can do that while waiting in line for a KC group. I remember doing outside KC trash quite a bit on my Warrior when I was playing Live in 2000.
