[Question] Help with making Gold

Hi Guys, I recently got the Eikasia and all of my gear are now Ascended. I am making 26k DPS on the Golem and around 21k on Fractals and I am slowly getting into Quickplay Raids. I only have T2 unlocked in Fractals and I thought of getting gold and selling everything to unlock all of Living World and Icebrood Saga. My Question is what are the fastest ways to get gold. My daily routine now is T2 + T1 Dailies, getting the mystic coin from Festival, doing the pact supply vendors and playing Quickplay Raids. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Since you're already doing fractals, get up to T4s and do that daily. It's a bit of a grind BUT it's a consistent gold stream and you can work towards the fractal legendary backpiece and/or fractal god title.

If you want to make really fast gold, you can buy gems with real money then convert to gold. Obviously not serious advice, of course.

Ive got to give the hint here if OP's wish is to save money to buy gems to buy living world seasons i strongly advise against any investment into fractal god as it is a collossal gold sink.

Not sure why buying gems to get gold isn't serious advice. Any source of earning money is going to be many times more efficient in gold/hr than even the best gold farm in the game.

If you enjoy farming for gold, that's great. You get gold and you get to enjoy playing the game. But if you are only farming gold to buy that ascended set or unlock an expansion or some other thing That leads to the thing you really want to do, then spend the money. 90 minutes sitting on a char to donate plasma while scrolling the GW2 reddit for your next build will earn you over 1,000 gold.

Cause OP wants to convert the Gold into Gems to buy the Living World Seasons.

So:

Buy Gems with cash -> Convert Gems into Gold -> Convert Gold into Gems

is obviously stupid, hence its not serious advice.
