Ironically, i got most of my currently 236 Commendations while leveling my BRD, and i got those by snapping my Tp/MP songs on and off, timing the Song uptime to one of my many (I feel for this reason) Damage increasing skills.

It drives me insane to see BRDs sing one song for their entire MP bar and then be like, well i cant sing anymore. Pewpewpew
