Guidance Needed - Guild Wars Forums

Hello, everybody. I'm new to this section of guru, so please bear with me. I've been playing for almost 4 years, with a few breaks here and there. I'm more of a casual player, and I generally play on weekends only.
The problem is, I have suddenly taken an interest in FoW armor. Before, I alwyas used to go for the new shiny stuff when it came out, and that was relatively easy. But now, I'm really not sure what to do. I want FoW armor for my ele, and with the current ecto price of ~7k from players, it would cost a little over 1 mil.
In 1 weekend, I managed to get about 135k playing just a few hours a day. Yet, this doesn't seem very profitable, because it would take 3 months or so.
To put it simply, I need new ideas on how to generate this money in an efficient, yet non-painful way. One thing I cringe at is speed clears. It's a sort of "been there, done that" kind of thing, and I would prefer solo farms. Any sort of tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, if it's not a huge bother, could you please also include how much money is generated with your tips/advice? Thanks in advance.

There are a few builds that farm ecto, via UW or Tombs. This isnt speed clear. Weekly theres the 5 traveler gifts that you can get, sell them 4.5k ea or gamble for something big. These are consistent farm. Dungeon SC are like slot machines, some times you may win big. Plenty of other ways i havent mentioned.

Asking about how to earn gold/money/items is not allowed. There are enough threads already, and there are forums more suited for those threads, like the farming forum.
