How do people get the platinum to buy items such as Fungi tunic? Is it just saving over a long time or having high end zones on farm?

Economics.

Dance for Plats as a wood elf female in the EC Tunnel works everytime

It makes a lot more sense once you spend time in Sebilis. Even if you don't get anything big, you'll still pile up gems and tunnel scraps which all slowly add up, and sooner or later you're bound to win something nice - perhaps even a fungi tunic. There are still tons of desirable 5-10kish items that drop pretty frequently too.

Or yeah you can find some undercamped spot and play the RNG slot machine - Grachnist, Droga stuff, Xalgoz, Frontier Mountains named cycles, Hunter/Forager cycles, etc.

Or Seafuries, if you don't value your soul/sanity.

I've been just trying to focus on leveling and getting money along the way. I've tried holding down a camp but I never get drops.

There's nothing worse than reaching a point where your gear is insufficient for the things you want to kill.

If your only path to upgrade effectively is the EC tunnel, your two options for gameplay are:

1. Stop adventuring and EC Tunnelquest for plat and get your upgrade so you can move on to what you want to kill.

2. Begrudgingly level in zones with mobs you can kill with your current gear, so you can make some progress and gain money. This may require research to find zones/spawns/camps that are often overlooked by traditional players. For example: The Najena zoneline in Lavastorm is a great place for someone to solo from LV16-22. Coin and loot sell well, and if you happen to be friendly with Neriak, you can sell faster than in EC (the bricks off dervishes get heavy).
