I made them only two times so far, but I got over 100 rp both times. That's alot of money....

i farmed the Mindblades before the nerf. now, i just farm the Aatxe's in HM. you don't get as many ectos but you still get them.

Farm somewhere like UW or do HFF *Kurzick* For about 100k.
Then just do Buy low Sell high technique. TOok me about a week and it was the first time i'd ever tried it, to go from 100k ~ 1mil.

Cathedral of flames. It`s a gold mine. Little more over one month of farming and i got my ecto armor. Drops are still good, last two runs i got 8 and 9 gold drops, black dye, white dye, 2 lockpicks, and elite ele tome. If you go to cof, bring two or three plain salvage kits to salvage white drops (since there are so many) so you can sell materials later. All in all one run is worth around 10k without taking others into group (with full group it pays even more, because you charge people for some amount of money to get them run through, and drops are better with more human players).
Other than cof, i farm tombs too with my sin. Still doable after Shadow Form nerf, just takes a liitle longer. Ectos don`t drop that often, but golds, lockpicks and tomes are there in abundance. Even rare dyes.
From what i`ve heard from my guildies, area below marketplace in Factions is a good one to go for golds and more importantly, gold runes. I haven`t finished Factions yet, so can`t confirm this tho.

yup. the overall drop rate is about 4% for anything in UW that can drop ectoes. there was just SOOOO many more midblades who were REALLY easy to kill. now, not so much with the easy.

Before the UW Farm Nerf, i used to farm there. That got me my first 2 pieces. I got the leg piece by saving up; trying not to use to much money for stuff that I don't need. I'm still currently saving up for the last piece I need, but with the current ecto price back to "normal" (5k ish) it'll take longer.
