If your only goal right now is to gear up, the most effective way to do it is to farm any of the following items/places:
Crushbone belts/pads to sell to other players
Deathfist belts/scalps to other players
Sisters in Lfay for bronze weapons to sell not far off to vendor for raw cash
Wisps in commons/karanas (10p per greater lightstone) - gives xp at your level
Doing any of the aforementioned and selling the proceeds will net you cash and buy you more potent upgrades exponentially faster than trying to collect individual items. Getting cash AND xp at the same time is actually easier from levels 5-16 (maybe up to 18) than it is to get cash AND xp at any other level range other than well past your low to mid 40s ... and most of this cash comes from selling items to other high level players that are loaded.
If your goal is only to xp naturally and acquire drops as they roll in .. then disregard.
When I was new to this server, starting at gfay/crushbone range (5-6) up to level 17 I managed to farm a full set of fine plate, 2 5ac/55hp rings, and 2 very good for level weapons, and 2 good instruments on my bard by using this route. Until my low to mid 40s when I quested my own Lambent, I didn't really need to focus at all on gearing/farming as the gear was overkill powerful.
The blessing of having a server as old and bloated as this is that low to medium range gear is very cheap and earning cash is very easy.
Is Korgoth the name of your paladin? By level 60 standards I'm by no means rich but I'd be happy to give you a leg-up wherever possible.
