See that's what happens when all you do is raid DS. You completely lose touch with the noobs and what they have to go through to get into raiding. ;) Extra EG (weekly quest and Omnicore-1 quest) gets you the key the same week you hit 50. You can easily complete the rep grind in blighthaven, R12 and the defile solo if you have to, including a bunch of the 20-man quests. The main obstacle is the daily nature of almost all of these rep quests. Special R12 mobs you can grind all day for their rep. PvP is hit or miss with the queues if the PvPers are to be believed, so getting AMP/Ability points here is iffy. But renown also buys you A/A points and is gained through any group questing, like adventures, dungeons or raids, as well as soloing vet shiphands. EG still buy you those points, too, and you can even get them off the auction house if you grind for gold. Lastly, getting gold medals in advantures and dungeons also leads to A/A points, and the runs themselves as mentioned also give you money, renown, glory (in dungeons), all of which also gets you better gear, aside from straight drops in the content. In particular SSM and the new Proto dungeons have good drops.

Uh, I know of at least two Dominion Guilds on Warhound that raid multiple times a week. So no, not dead. Unless you're talking about EU, in which case, Idunno. There were more until relatively recently, when for some reason, pretty much all the Exiles put their Aurin tails between their legs and ran to Entity. I guess they just don't like conflict and prefer hugging it out in PvE instead. So if you're an Exile,  that's rough, blame your faction for thinking the sky is falling and all jumping ship. More people jumping ship from the PvP server only makes the problem worse people, don't be a part of the problem if you want to see it fixed. If you're Exile, I get it. If you're Dominion. There's no real reason to.
