As for the groupable nameds Zyba mentioned ... They certainly don't require a mini raid, you've just got to fight up to them and kill them off (it used to be you could have a monk train the entire tower out and split the named, but he was recently leashed). If another group is up there, just kill your way up and do some killing while you wait. They're relatively easy to kill and have a repop of approximately 20 minutes. When I got my item from Zeka, we ended up killing four nameds along the way.
As for the cultural items, the zones Zyba mentioned -- in addition to Steam Factory -- are where you want to go. The drop rate remains insanely low outside of those zones, but the items do exist. I looted a Porous Loam off a brownie in Dragonscale Hills last week.
