Commendation Rewards

[Sapphic]

I have nearly 700. Never cheated. Role a healer and don't be awful.

727 here, ost of them as DPS, did legit also. Took a few months. But I rarely go into dungeons with a negative attitude and try to motivate people who make mistakes, or joke about it. Also offer advice to new players.

As I've been where they were.

I've ended up tanking dungeons upto Haukke manor as MNK due to tank bailing XD

Offering advice to players is a high risk high gain move. You'll either be thanked and possibly given a commendation, or the word "elitist" will be thrown around.

Way to take the wind out of my sails...lol

My apologies <3

Cheating = Playing Tank or Healer....

If only the real cheaters out there could take this as another shortcut, our shortage of Tanks and healers would be resolved!

*Now please Forum, give that commendation to Fizzle, thank you.

I'm near 1k now, all legit. Most of them from Tank and healer jobs, but happened sometime 3 commends even as dps in light party duty.

Tank and healer isn't free commends anyway, it happened bad duties and got 0 comm as reward.

Never begging for them, I will never commend someone who asks for. The only method I know for "fast" commends farming, is playing guildhests roulette.

Most of my commendations are from Pharos Sirius; being a SCH as well as explaining the boss fight mechanics. I once got 7 commendations on Titan HM (roulette) as a BLM, though I suspect I was thrown into a pre-made party.

I'm one of those weird players who really likes Pharos Sirius, especially before the nerf. I cared not about the loot, I just liked the challenge.

Edit: Any time I see someone with the "Heart of the Party" set as their main title, I judge them and their actions heavily.

I have 481,374,823,732,727,253 Commendations.



I demand that SE offer me a billion dollars and 3 private islands.

Or I could just be good to people for the sake of just being good to people.

Looking at the achievements for FATE grinding, I assume IF they were to add more it would be for 1000, and then 3000 commendations, so I'm not particularly hoping for new ones any time soon. I'm almost up to 900 on my tank now. I did a ton of Guildhest roulette over a few days of casual grinding for commendations. I never used any sort of begging for commendations macro, nor queued with anyone I knew trying for free ones. The remaining 400 were just 2 or 3 here & there through various instances over the last few months.

My current commendations tend to go to melee classes as long as they do their job right. Tanks & Healers get plenty just for existing.

I remember I was doing Garuda Hm as a dragoon and when the 1st feathers spawn. I got my heavy trust buff up, blood for blood and the Cd that crits on the next hit. The feathersgot destroyed lol. It crits for about 950 and a lot people liked that. Got 4 because of that.

By the time you've gotten 500 commendations, you've probably gotten into the habit of being kind and courteous in instances (or at least gotten into the habit of NOT being a total asshat). Certainly there will be exceptions, but by and large I'd guess the player is rare who, after dinging that 500th commendation, sez to themself, "Well, dang, no more rewards to get - time to unleash my inner troll lolololololol!"

I wouldn't turn up my nose at further commendation rewards, but I don't really see any need for them.
