Daily Rewards
There's so many daily's that Gw2 Achievement Panel has a section of it's own based on "Daily" , whether it is Fractals, +10 Achievement Point, Farming, Strikes and so on and so forth. There's plenty to do and you may not have all the time you need to do all of them so here are the most important ones.
-
Daily Completionist : Rewards you with 2 gold , 10 Achievement Points and a bag of Spirit Shards
-
Daily Fractals + Recommended: Do the Daily (Any Tier) as well as Recommended. You don't have to do them everyday but be sure to purchase 30 keys each day. A full stack of Encryption Cases gives you about a 100 Raw Gold as Profit.
-
Priority Strike : Everyday there will be one chosen strike from both Icebrood Saga and End of Dragon. w
-
Daily Home / Guild Hall Harvesting: Something that isn't known to new player aren't aware but may come across in map chats is "full home", the materials you gather can be sold for some profits averaging around 1 gold. Likewise with Guild Hall, the higher the guild hall, the better the nodes.

Farming
Tier 6 Materials
In guild wars, some items have a level such as Blood, Bones and Fangs highest tier being 6 and also being obviously the most expensive at roughly 30 silver per mat (price varie and fluxuate). When it comes to Tier 6 Farming, there's plenty of places where you'd be able to go and simple have a low attention due to the spawn rate; basically you can stand still and just hold your basic attack and get plenty of materials. Here are a few to mention.
Domain of Kourma - East of [Dejarin Ruins] : Kill Choya's
Lake Doric - Crossroad of Eastern Hunting Grounds You can also partake in the regular Leather Trains that people host for some Salvage Gear to turn into leather for easy gold.
Sandswept Isles - South of Invariant Enclave.
Laurels
Your daily login reward will give you Laurels from time to time, the best way to hoard said laurels is to make Alt Accounts. Login in on them daily will give you plenty of extra rewards such as mystic coins which can be sold 1g each and Laurels can be used to purchase Tier 1 to Tier 6 Materials at 1 Laurel per bag. Which is a very generous price.
