I'm bar far and away not the richest person on the server but I have had > 1mil on my banker on multiple occasions and I can tell you one thing is for certain; more money can be made in EC than at any camp.
When I first hit 60 on the ENC I farmed HS and PoM for months saving up enough to buy items that were, at the time for me, exceptionally expensive, like PoM robe. For a long time I would farm for a solid month, then buy something for around 40k, then do it again. This worked for about a year.
Then I transitioned to selling LR in SG which was good when there were buyers but absolutely abysmal when there were not. So I moved to killing elementals which cost me more money than I made and took over a year to really become profitable. None of this was ever as good as just farming BM or something else.
Then at one point or another I got to about 200k and I bought a zheart for 120k, which I then promptly sold for 175. I did this type of thing a few times until I had 400k, which I used to buy a manastone. (I know, right?) Which I promptly sold for 600k. I very rapidly learned that EC is by far the best pp/hr, if you can bring yourself to sit there all damn day. Also, the blue economy I think is overall worse for this now than it was in years past.
TLDR; there are no shortcuts. Find a good camp. Do it forever. Find a good LR or MQ. Do it forever. Or sit in EC forever.
There are no shortcuts in EQ.
