How do we obtain Commendation achievement awards?

I recently received the achievement "Leaving a Good Impression II", which is supposed to award a "Princely Hatchling", but nothing was placed in my inventory, nor did it automatically go into my minions list. Does anyone know? Is there a vendor or something you have to spend these Commendations on?

You have to speak to a NPC in old gridania to get it.

Thanks! I'll check that out.

It's kinda stupid how you can win one of these achievements and it gives no indication of what to do to get your reward. Every indication is that it give sit to you as soon as you achieve it. This is what MOST games do... otherwise they give you some indication at least where to go....

The tutorial when you first gained access to achievements explained that all item rewards from achievements had to be claimed from Jonas in Old Gridania. The game does tell you how to get them.

You, sir, are amazing.

Back in the day (FFXI) we didn't even have map markers for STORY quests, let alone side quests or random obscure stuff like this.
And in the first year there was no wiki, so we had to find stuff by ourselves, or hear feint rumors of how to complete quests from other likewise newbs.

ok one what chocobo hatchling is that :O

second) when i got that tutorial i was mid boss fights sometimes people cannot read them due to the annoying (?) in the centre of the screen

although i do beleave it says where to go in the achievement listings anyway

or google, google is always a good way to awnser questions :D

i think it is a matter of conditioning. quest awards go straight into inventory or chest, so players are accustomed to that happening.
