Default Fast way to earn money?

Hi!
I've decided to buy a FoW armor. But to do that I need some money, and to get money I have to farm. The problem is that I don't know any good farm spots anymore. I liked the UW solo for a while but I realised that ectos dropped rarely and sometimes I didn't even make up for the entry fee. I would like some advices on how to earn money pretty fast.

Thanks in advance!

You farmed greens and elite tomes with a dervish in FoW? I don't really understand, could you try to explain it again, please?

Meh, I'd normally close this thread but I'm actually interested in aquiring some FoW armor fast.

SO, if we keep this thread to earning money for FoW armor fast...I'll keep it opne.

really the easiest way to farm a ragos/dragos/other SF green would be using some sort of 1v1 character and flagging off your heroes.
It can be done with a touchie, Sin, Warr, etc

Rago's you may as well go normal mode since hard mode won't give you a better chance and there's really no other reason for being there. For FoW armor farmery, in my opinion there's really only one way. Specifically farm stuff that people want, and will pay lots for. Either greens or specific skin farming, like zodiac swords or if you want to roll big try your luck at getting tribal axes. Even in today's in game economy there are things which you can sell even before you can type WTS... The only other way to get FoW armor fast historically has been power trading, and I don't feel that's as good as it once was these days.
I haven't been hanging out in DOA much lately but there used to be a good market for titan gems, probably can still get 20-25k for them is my guess. Those aren't too random of a drop and it's a good duo farm. May even be able to trade them 1:4 ectos, dunno.

not particularly an SP spike, I saw a build once that ran moebius and horns of the ox to permanantly KD the enemy and defensive enchants to survive until they hit 1/2 health. Critical agility is a definite good choice, and then you can use vigorous spirit and live vicariously or somesuch to keep your health up. Just see what skills you have and try things out

HM is the key

Are there any recommended items/skins to farm for?
