100 arcanite is easy these days. Arcane crystals go for like 5 g or so, they're in the AH all the time, and transmute arcanite doesn't have a cooldown any more.

Learning smelt elementium is _supposed_ to be fixed at some point, theoretically soon:

Thunderfury would definitely be a lot of work, but nothing like opening the gates IMO.
Scepter questline really only sucks because of the rep grind involved. Since now all gates are open one can just run aq20/40 for rep. Other than the huge timesink that was rep farming there really is not all that much farming involved (yea, some is still involved). The outdoor stuff is really really funny (if you're into reading quests anyway) and most can easily boxed.
Running mc / bwl should be easy with a pug, and you just need to do it a few times. However, for 100 elementium ore, you're looking at a rather long time of farming bwl, and if you have to pug instead of 'solo' boxing it (vael might be rather hard for 5 boxing) you'll have to convince randoms to pass legendary items (the ore) to you

Scepter is loads of fun for sure, imo easier and way more fun than tf.
