No commendations

[Transient_Shadow]

Am I the only one who's getting a little annoyed with getting little to no comms for dungeons and duties? I mean at least one comm or a thanks for the healing would be nice.

Are you only doing the bare minimum as a healer, just healing? Most people will give the healer comms if they are stance dancing and have very good dps while keeping everyone alive. I main DRK, if the healer does this, they get the comm. Else the comm goes to the dps that did the best. If the healer and dps were bad, I just leave without giving a comm. Plus if you are doing this and aren't giving comms, remember comms aren't a guarantee, players give them to anyone for varying reasons.

I mean, I comm when someone plays well. How good are you? :P

If you're not getting many commendations, and it's a consistent thing, you may want to look at whether your own dungeon performance is just the bare minimum. If all you're doing is standing there topping off the tank and very little else (occasional party heals for unavoidable party damage) then a lot of players don't comm for being mostly inactive during a run.

If you know that your performance was better than average, good, or great, then you've encountered a lot of jerks.

I run all three roles and it's very rare I don't get at least one comm a day unless the only thing I do is run content with my static. So people ARE comming.

Instances aren't server based, they are data center based. When you are in an instance you can be queued with anyone from your data center, not just the server.

To answer the assumption that I'm doing the bare minimum I will say this. I am performing my role. I heal and dps. however when I continually get tanks who can't hold aggro or use cool-downs its a little difficult to do two jobs at once. I get comms I'm saying that people are increasingly just leaving the instance without so much as a tyfp.

Secondly I almost never go without leaving a comm. I've always felt that is was polite but I guess that was a misunderstanding on my part as well

Maybe it's your attitude? What are you like in duties?

Comms are fickle, really. Sometimes when I'm preoccupied and I do the absolute bare minimum, i.e. not talk, just throw up regens and stand around, I'll walk out with three comms. Others, I'll heal and DPS my butt off and walk out with one or zero. There are times I'll get into arguments with the whole group and weirdly get a bunch, and then another time I'll get on really well with some players and get none at all. There's no point in getting annoyed or questioning it, people comm/ don't comm for a variety of reasons. I've even heard some people comm based on what glamours they like.

I typically stay really positive with my groups. I don't really have time to talk because like I mentioned earlier I always get groups that are near death within five seconds. but I do leave a positive "well done guys" at the end.

not a big deal if people just want to leave fast without comming anybody. you'll probably get some commy groups eventually if you play a high volume of duties. sometimes I think people just forget to comm unless you do something memorable like say something funny or nice to them, or do cute emotes ;p
