I think pretty much the general concensus is you just, y'know, earn prestige by killing crap in SG mode.
There's really no right way about it. Running in SG mode while exemplared does increase prestige reward a lot - it'd increase influence as well, tho,
and therein lies the problem. If you don't play the market, then simply playing the regular game is probably your only source of influence income at higher
levels...which encourages people to drop OUT of SG mode.
I mostly alternate half-in, half-out, myself, if playing on any character above level 40 or so, because I don't have major influence-earning techniques
otherwise. Right now I can probably afford to run in SG mode full time, but that is likely to change if I actually start working on IO builds. For a
non-farmer, it gets expensive.
(I'm not against farming, I just don't specifically build for it, and typically find it boring unless there's a really chatty team...thus...)
