    Is it valid to say that the commendation window will not appear for those ppl who are in a pre-formed party prior to entering the duty?
    The reason I ask this, as I ran a DR Low lvl last night, Haukke Manor, and everyone wanted to give me commendations at the end. I received one successfully from one of the people in the dungeon party; however, for the other two (DPS and healer), the commendation window never appeared for them, only the final loot window.

    I believe even if the commendation window is dismissed and you haven't selected a person yet, that you can still click on the notice to bring the window back up?

    If not, how would you force the window to appear again? Has this happened to anyone yet? Thank you!

    If two people are grouped together and queue for a dungeon, they can't commend anyone. Commendations are only provided for people to give if they queued solo. It prevents 2 people from grouping and just commending each other.

    Which is understandable but they should be still able to commend anyone else OUTSIDE of the premade group otherwise system put in the "dissadvantage" those being paired with partially pre-made parties. On other hand though, if that would be allowed it would actually increase their chance to recieve the commendation comparing to full party of "single" players so it's somehow hard to say which one is better / worse.

    This was really poorly implemented. While I understand and agree with the idea that you can't just let two people party up, join duties and give commendations to one another, it hamstrings rewarding the random joiners. My wife and I play together as a tank and a healer and on several occasions I have wanted to give commendations to players to DPS who were very helpful explaining things, etc. Instead of just not showing the window to partied players, it should just omit any party members going in from giving commendations to one another.

    I can't be the only person who has come up against this limitation of the current implementation of the commendation system. Anyone should be able to give commendations to someone who entered the Duty randomly, and anyone should be able to give a commendation to someone who they did not enter the Duty partied with.
