Don't go to EC when UGuk is RIGHT there. EC is ONLY this "glorious" place because you can beg for buffs like a vagabond. Uguk is fantastic, and I've heard the low-level frogs drop good plat (or items vendored for plat). After starting my first DE character, I'm never doing EC again. Qeynos for Blackburrow or Faydwer for me, so much better since I'm not reliant on begging for handouts to level and earn coin for spells.

OR, you could go to EC and NOT beg for stuff

As a fellow new player, EC has been great because you learn the cost of gear, you learn what gear you will want to achieve later on and what to save up for. You also have the ability to actually sell drops you get from dungeons for much more than just vendoring it.
Take the advice of selling bonechips and pelts and such. Thats how I made my first beginning plat, with that I leveled blacksmithing and now sell banded armor for a profit. My brother is an iksar owning it up in the Field of Bone, and yes hes making decent $ but the fact that I can sell to players has earned me 20x what he has and I've learned a LOT about p99 by simply being in EC listening in and asking questions.
The major con to EC is the zone is boring as shit and unless you get an orc camp group.......well lets just say I hope you like killing fucking snakes getting poisoned all day.
