Commendations are just so broken

[Maeka]

I find that if I kick serious butt, and do everything perfect, I get 0 or 1 comms.

If I go there and halfheartedly do my job, I'll walk away with 3.

Other days, it's the opposite.

I have, however, gotten comms for being DPS, and there were a few times I really don't understand why, I didn't think I did anything special. Other times, I've done things like kited a boss for the last 15% of its health or so and wound up killing it after healer and tank were dead and I got obvious comms for that lol.

I remember one Qarn Normal run where the healer could not understand "Doom = Stand on Shiny Plates" and they died 50% of the way into the boss... tank stayed alive for quite awhile, but eventually bees killed him. Next try, same thing, healer dies on the first Doom, and we got him down to 40% this time... and I'm like "Heck no." I'm a MCH and I dump a limit break and get both bees and the boss with it, and we barely managed to kill the thing just as the tank dies. Easy 2 comms lol.

Some people just can't be bothered to click the little button. Sad, because you get a good chunk of XP for doing that 5 times per week.
