Commendation System: So who get's your vote?

[Elkya95]

I noticed that for some odd reason I got most of my commendations from leveling DRG for B4B not just one or two per run either I would often get all 3... Also get a lot on SCH, I thank the tanks and dps for doing silly pulls so I have to work really hard to keep us up (or a tank dc in the last boss and I heal the melee, that was fun).
But yeah mine really depends I don't look at the job, I think of who was nice and not sucking up. I do sometimes give it to the silent new dps, if no one stands out it's the normal I'm dps it goes to dps, I heal it goes to tank, I tank and the heal deserves it from healing me. My confidence in tanking is so high...

That was awesome. Provoking and Flashing as a DRG saving healers from newbie tanks all day. While topping dmg.

Simple, who left the best overall impression on me...

that includes thinking beyond, aiding ppl with hints and being friendly and/or communicative at all.

if it´s equal or no outstanding character was there, i prefer to give it to a DPS, cause most ppl think just dealing out damage is not really a big task...

And sometimes i don´t vote at all, when the grp annoys me by a simple "hi" and just running silently through the dungeon for example.

BTW - Felt awesome as i got all 3 Votes as Bard in a Guildheist last time ^^

I'm Warrior main, and I used to get most/all commendations.

I'm now considering levelling paladin to raise my commendations even more, however it seems people are bored to give commendations to tanks, which is annoying. Dps are disposable unless they are friends. We have too many of them already. We don't need more, so no one should be rewarded for playing a dps class.

So well, If dps players reward each others to lv up commendation reputation, I guess I won't bother levelling tank, I'll find another method to get to 500, and you'll be stuck queuing forever

mwhahahahahaha

Honestly we need more people to be nicer to Tanks, its the cruel treatment that is given to Tanks that make people go DPS. We also need more tank classes because you got the warrior that can hold mobs and the paladin that can hold a single target(boss). There is more variety with DPS, probably also another reason why its popular.

dps classes get the fun and easy job, so we don't get commendations as much....

Actually, I have lot more fun playing healer then dps...and as a dps you also have to stand the pain of neverending queues. And as far as low level dungeon go, I feel dps is more effort then ehaling, since healing is simply spamming a key and throwing a dot every once in a while basically all the way up to Brayflox,, while dps has to look at adds and stuff. And in case of say monk, I always feel a bit like in Benny Hill Show.

As for places like CT where yu really have a lot of choice, I generally commend the one who made me laugh the most (since without jokes and stuff that place kills you bit by bit inside) or say a tank who always volunteered to MT, since it seems 90% of the tanks in there hate tanking duh....and of course someone who gives tips etc.

I noticed myself that I get mroe commendations if I screw up or throw insults at someone, rather then if I do all great, give tips etc <.< Unless I'm on whm and solo heal battles. People is weird....

I was referring to a stereotype xd But really, I cant see how healer is easier than dps? Then again, I play a bard xD As brainless a class as I have seen in any game. No interrupting skills to dodge aoe. pretty simple gcd rotation with a priority system in place for the non-gcds, and all this made even simpler via macros..

Whoever makes me laugh gets the commendation.

I'm not the type to throw insults around, but I definitely notice I get more commendations when I screw up. I think it's because of how I own my mistakes, rather than making an excuse. A perfect example happened last night during the last boss of Stone Vigil. In phase two I ate one of the fly by breath attacks, then proceeded to run right into a puddle of death which killed me. I was there as SCH so they wiped shortly after my death. I explained what I did wrong and apologized. We killed him handily in round two, and I left with all three commendations!

Eh as I said referring to low level dungeons, you only really have a skill to spam, while standing still and never running out of mana if anything. If nobody is taking damage, you just spam another skill. :P And while having insta skills makes dodging aoe easier (but is there even something to dodge at low level?), long casts mean less clicks and being able to chat etc during cast :P Obviously hugh level and end game is all another thing, but low level roulette is mostly sastasha and stuff so duh.

Just as a note, it's not like I'm one who enerally goes around insulting :P But sometimes in CT with all those trolls and stuff...telling them to shut up just can't be helped from my part.

I still find it funny how many people never say a word the whole dungeon then at the end. [Thanks for the PT! ] [I had fun, let's play again!] and just sit waiting for that commendation. "Please pick me." Half of the people who do this don't even do their parts. Had a blackmage in hard mode who didn't kill adds or even do fodder. (healer/me on mnk had to while he spammed boss. Just seems so stalker ish.

It feels like to me they are the pedo bear waiting to strike lol.
