Haven`t focussed on gold for over 2 years. I`m around 60m currently. Just do arena, get the uncollected gold crystals from the 22h stuff etc. Variants also give some nice gold for completion and exploration. But it is something that grows over time. Just watch your spending, level up to get the 22h level up event at max and you won`t likely run into gold and iso problems for quite a while as soon as you have build a small buffer.
I get a lot of gold from completing content, like Act 6/7 and the variants. However, from the alternatives you listed, I'd probably say Arena. I'm a crazy grinder there. Not enough to get any good rank rewards, but well enough to constantly have gold to spare.
For at least a year now I’ve just played the game. Normally do incursions only 2 sector runs. Barely touch arena. On my big accs I sit around 15-20m. On new acc I’ve played for last 3/4 months I’m at 6m but have never opened gold crystals. Saving them for boost week. Suppose the caveat is I only rank champs I need for questing and none for arena or AW.
Suppose could add I used to sell basic iso and rank with class specific when gold was tighter. Don’t really feel the need anymore but still sell excess as and when.
