Getting 500pp on this server is all you really need to start of a pretty good pre-50 warrior. And it is easy to do.
Bone chips, bat wings, spider silk as a previous poster said. Do it for 5 hours and I bet you can get 500pp in EC. That will get you a sword of skyfire, and maybe green jade broadsword (of course there are alternatives).
At level 15, get two obsidian shards if you are having a tough time holding aggro. Then at 36-40, get a couple of Ykesha items for a few hundred plat each. Those items proc a lot and hold aggro wonderfully. That should keep you well into your 50s.
A simple suit of banded armor or large bronze can be bought in EC for 100-200pp, no need in going into any more detail.
Bottom line: it is super easy to make money on this server even at low levels because there are rich lazy people who pay for things (bat wings, bone chips, silk, etc). The trickle-down economy in EC is awesome, and really good pre-50 weapons/armor are dirt cheap compared with prices from 1999.
