I always found it kind of hilarious how Edmond planned out these elaborate situations to out Fernand and Villefort in front of a huge public audience to ruin their reputations, and with Baron Danglars he just slowly drains his bank account over time until he has no money left

Do you mean that he should have "just" drained F. and V. accounts as well? I don't remember the details of the plot enough to comment, but the book is a good one and I don't exactly get what you mean.

Nah, it just seemed funny to me the two completely different paths he chose to get revenge on Danglars compared to the others

My guess would be that he tried to hit them where it would hurt the most, like take money from a businessman and take esteem from a celebrity.
