Commendation performance?

[Aelesiah]

I healed Ravana yesterday. Got 6 commendations. But sometimes I work hard and get 0.

No DPS close to death means that they actually did mechanics(very rare for PUG DPS). Maybe they got the coms out of pure shock.

If that were true, I would have 1000 comms by now.

Maybe have an option to hide commendation messages.

There isn't a specific option but you can hide that text yes, via filter.

Sometimes people leave immediately after the duty is complete without commending anyone. If you stick around until you are one of the last 2 people you almost always get a commendation just because you are the only option.

Tanks mostly get commendations despite being one of the easiest classes to play according to what my tank friends say, I haven't played one myself so can only go by what they told me. However what I can say with certainty there is a knee jerk reaction to throw commendations onto them in general by quite a lot of players even if they just perform average and not above and beyond the rest of the group. Because there are no in game parsers, DPS also get ignored because people cannot see they did their jobs very well. Healers tend to be second highest commendation rate.

It is nice when get a commendation as a DPS but it feels like you have to perform to a much higher standard in order to earn them compared to tanks and healers which is somewhat annoying as a DPS. All the people I know who want to specifically earn and grind commendations tend to switch to their tank class every time because of that knee jerk reaction to throw commendations their way by players. If they do not have a tank class they will switch to healers to grind the commendations as they know both tanks and healers get them far more so than DPS even if they did not really deserve them more than the DPS in the group.

OP did great in that run, If I were the tank in that I would have given you the commendation. However dont always expect commendations. Some people leave instances without giving them.

People actuall care about commendations?....I mean, yeeeah, you should of defo recevied that chat box message which in the end, means nothing at all.

[Nadirah]

And I just got out of a Vault run.

No commendations, but eh, not worried bout it.

I *did* give mine to the poor NIN that was tanking the floor though, because he was a good sport about it.
