Commendations don't really mean anything.

I usually get a few comms just for tanking or healing without really doing anything I think is exceptional. The dungeons required for the resistance weapons were one of my biggest sources of comms, and I don't think I did anything special in there. I just queued in as tank and pulled everything.

I even get comms from the praetorium just for being a naked roe during cutscenes, not because of anything I actually do!



Before I knew it, I qualified as mentor despite only having played the game for a few months. I was still a sprout myself just a couple of months ago, so I'm not sure I'd even be able to answer anything other than the most basic of questions. I haven't even tried out any maps or the fashion thing in the gold saucer!
