1. Be Uncollected
2. Spend one hour in arena every day
3. Change all battlechips from Uncollected BCs for gold/units
4. Save up to at least 3M gold and 2500+ ISOs (no ranking and leveling for 2-3 months)
5. Explore monthly quest from Beginner - Uncollected (2-3 straight month)
6. Rank up champs that are worth ranking. Garbage 4*s stay R3 max and Garbage 5*s stay R1 max.
7. Rank up 1-2 champs a week max.
8. Be discerning who you rank and level even if you're tempted to rank or level because of level up event
9. Continue doing 1-2 hours/arena daily
10. Keep doing as many quests as you can
It's been two months since I did this last May and I've ranked 2 R4 5*s, 3 R5 4*s and I still have 1M gold and 2000 ISOs left over.
You will only really lose gold if you never do arena and won't gain much ISOs if you don't do events as regularly as possible.
I hope this helps.

You get donations back almost fully on map5, next excuse??
This is not a solution. It is pretending everything’s fine.
Having 3m and even if you earned one gold a day as long as you waited until you had just enough that when you spent it you’d still have 3m afterwards, that is no solution.
I usually complete heroic through uncollected monthly with completion on easy and normal.
Arenas, I do all milestones in only 4* basic and 3* featured, which gets gold, PHCs and enough battle chip for decent amount of arena crystals for gold and units.
There was a time when I was short on gold and ISO. I guess if my pulls were a little more lucky recently, I may still be in a bind, but I have almost 7m gold right now and around 2k in iso and don't see a shortage anytime soon even though I will need to r4 a 5* soon because of expiring t2a.
It's not that we don't realize that doing arenas and just spending more time playing in general would net us more gold. It's that we can't. And for the first couple years of playing this game, it wasn't all that big of a hurdle. Just took a week or so of saving. But the champs have gotten more stars, and require exponentially more resources to rank up. So we semi-casual summoners that play in short bursts when we can get in are getting hosed pretty hard. We get the champs and Catalysts from our hard work in AW and AQ and quests, but then have to sit on them for a really long time waiting for gold.
It has never felt like gold was intended to be the throttling point of rank ups. Typically it was catalysts and just getting the champs you want. But it has become gold, at least for folks who can't dedicate hours on end to grinding. I don't think ISO is a problem really. The main reason we end up with a shortage of ISO is because we're selling ISO for gold. The gold rewards just haven't scaled along with the increased gold cost of modern tier champs.
That would solve your gold and ISO problems permanently.
