Commendation performance?

[Gallus]

Personally, I think it would be better to rework the commendation system to maybe a rating system. You can rate all of your party members out of 5. That way if you notice someone was particularly bad, you could give them 0-1 starts. Or maybe they were just OK, give em 3. Maybe they blew you out of the water, give em 5. Then instead of a count of commendations, you receive an average rating.

As to Fendred's point, if everyone in your party did a good job, you could give all of them 4+ instead of having to choose randomly.

I don't think that would work...imagine people just giving you 1 star for the sake of trolling, I'm sure this would happen and it would be even more unfair than it is now.

Now on topic, my thread was a complete /vent. I was in a mediocre party, sorry if I sound like an elitist, I've been in many parties and this one was just especially bad, it was a neverreap run, people eating aoes in the first boss, people ignoring the bubbles, I killed 2 myself with broil + energy drain and still we had a couple explode and place 2 vulnerability stacks on everyone, people ignoring totems on the second boss, at some point I even had to grab two heads while the 2 brds were standing there hitting the boss (and they weren't far from the heads, the heads were right next to them). On top of that, the WAR was one of those full STR accessories dudes that pull half dungeon and receive damage spikes of half of his health in seconds, there was one time where he pulled those 4 nasty bees and the tree, I couldn't DPS myself (impossible, damage was too heavy) and the BRDs were doing mediocre damage, which resulted in the WAR getting final stinged 3 times, still, I wouldn't let him die and burn every single tool in my kit to prevent a wipe in that pull, which involved spamming adloquiums like a madman, burning around 6-7 lustrates and ending up with 1k mana, but it doesn't end here, tank continued pulling with me at 1k mana like nothing. Fine, my aetherflow just came on CD so I could still keep up, but I couldn't help but think that was just icing the cake.

And then, after putting up with such terrible party with zero wipes on my back due to giving 150% of myself while not saying a damn word (didn't complain about anything, absolutely anything, just stayed calm and helped as much as I could), I got zero coms. I felt frustrated so I came into this forum and /vented, and honestly, I regret it. You can argue my thread wasn't very friendly or very polite, but at least I was not launching insults or calling names to anyone, I was mainly frustrated at how unfair and biased I thought commendations were, there's no real need to compare me to a lion doing what we all see in that picture.
