Anyone else feel bad when giving commendations to DPS?

[LunaFaye]

I join plenty of DF parties for the daily roulette's. I don't pick just prime time, due to my work schedule, it can be at any time of the day/night. I always at the end of the run, commend the dps that was great. I don't commend tank or heals, since DPS is always the ones that never get noticed. However out of let's say 7 roulette's, I can only commend 1 or maybe 2 DPS's, because it's that bad lately, and in most cases I don't even give out any commendation. Maybe one day that will change, and we can actually commend somebody that did an outstanding job. I don't lose that hope.

Edit: I would feel bad, if I gave out a commendation after every run, especially just because I liked somebodies glamour or somebody type'd "hi" at the start.

If I'm a DPS then I almost always give the commendation to the other DPS. If I'm a tank the healer gets it. If I'm a healer then the tank gets it. Exceptions are considered based on who happens to stand out the most.

I like this, sounds fair to me.

I just kinda randomly pick, same as u don't expect any coms. It's so random to me anyways.

Like earlier this evening on rdm where our healer didn't have lucid dream set, so I explained to them, I explained mechanics, I backup healed because the whm ran out of mp, and our of the mp I have them from mana shift, multi times, and got not a single com

But yet i did titan last week, and muscle memory backflipped, off the edge I went while titan was at like 60% hp, and I got like 5 coms.

Recently, I'm the other DPS so it's not hard to decide. I give commendations to the one who deserves it, otherwise nobody gets any.
However there's not a lot of co-DPS that impressed me lately because I keep outdoing them as a Bard out of all the DPS jobs...

Oh first time I did Titan was a dragoon. Flipped off the edge. Got all commendations. I think they thought it was funny...

When the party gone so good, the best course of action is commend each other. Tank and healer, dps and dps. So everyone comes out with one.

But I stopped looking at them, after the comm farming become a thing (looking at you, the one-minute guildhest!).

No, you shouldn't feel bad about giving commend to a DPS.

After a year of playing this game, my comms just go to whoever left a good impression on me or... whoever's hasn't left the duty after we cleared it. Especially after challenge log reset.

This is almost the same way I do things, even giving it to whoever was left in the duty to complete the challenge log.

Yes, this would be nice if the party is really good.

What I prefer though is that to be able to give commend to anyone who did his or her job well. If all of other players were doing well with their respective jobs and roles, we should be able to give one to all of them, not just to the best one. Of course, the reverse also applies, you shouldn't give one to any if none were good.

I always commend whoever I think performed the best, regardless of their role in the party.

The one thing I absolutely love is healers that run to go grab chests/doors/keys/ect. When I'm in something like Haukke and I see a SCH DoT a group up, Bane, plant Eos down, then go deal with whatever would normally slow the run down, I instantly want to throw commendations at them.

If nothing outstanding happened as healer I give it to tank, dps to deeps. Unless sb is doing a particularly bad job then I will add it to whomever is left from party.

I always comm someone who flip themselves off the edge for comic relief
