I haven't been playing nearly that much, and am revered with everyone
but the Surmar rep is still lagging on the low side of revered (maybe
around 7K?). I haven't been doing the training missions much because I
am no grinding mana.  Also, I am capped and 1700 mana and cant figure
out which items I am missing. But it hardly matters, I don't get enough
to do the army training very often.

Oh, wait, Warders. I've not hit revered with them, not enough days of
Warders quests.

Yep. The WQ mechanic is pretty nice, but one frustration is too many of
them are frequently bugged. I had one today to kill The Unnamed King (or
somesuch) and killed him 5 times and never got credit.

I at least do the quests I need for the meta reward. Today was unusual
as I completed all 12 WQ for three zones, so I could stay off for three
days.

Artifact multiplier is up to 1750%. 4.5 more days until the next level.

I just blew all my resources upgrading my guild hall set to all 840,
(except the one piece that is 850) even though I am only wearing two
pieces of it. iLvl is now 846. Woot.
