Yesterday I went to do a couple of guild tasks, for guild smithing and weaving. The NPC states the reward is 100 shards of a specific element. However, when completing the tasks I only received 5 shards from each. I double checked the chat buffer as well.
This was working properly just a few days ago where I received 100 for both classes just fine.
Its not a bug. The 100 shards or 5000 gil are the "best" rewards among many others. The reward you receive is random...the NPC himself says so when expllaining about the rewards.

I originally thought that this was a bug, too. But if you read closely what the NPC says, he/she says that 100 shards is the best possible reward (one NPC even says, "No guarantees that you'll get that one" or something similar). That implies that there are other, lesser rewards that you can get. I think the game just randomly decides what reward to give you.
Good luck, novio!
