I commend people when they follow the mechanics and do what they are suppose to, regardless of role.
Special DPS get my comm. I usually default to the tank (I am a healer main), but if the DPS makes me happy (usually by feeding me mana) they get the comm. It's so rare that I see it that it always majorly stands out when I do.
I commend the other dps if i notice they're using their aggro tools, avoiding mechanics, or using AOE on trash (surprisingly, alot of dps don't for some reason? even if the tanks doing big pulls)
If the dps was better than what i usualy get in the DF means: The other dps used AOE's properly, used emnity controll skills properly, used support skills properly, deals dmg etc.I've seen posts in Reddit an these forums of DPS players claiming they would usually or always commend the other dps. However, when I tank or heal, I usually get more than one commendation. So that leaves one dps without a commendation, especially during times when all party members have contributed to exceptionally wonderful dungeon/trial runs.
So I present this question to you, especially DPS mains:
What conditions would you normally commend other DPS players after you clear the instance?
That goes for every class. Did you play good? You'll get my commendation doesn't matter what role. But it honestly rarely happens that i give a commendation...
I generally comm the tank, because they're on top of the list. However, I will absolutely comm any dps that uses the LB instead of wasting it. Honestly, I wish I could take comms away from DPS that go entire runs without ever touching the LB guage. Such a waste!
Lucky for you, apparently I get commended the most when I am playing DPS. When I play tank or healer, and save the group or perform the best I've ever done I get none, and when I am sitting around half paying attention I get 2-3 commendations. Makes literally no sense.I've seen posts in Reddit an these forums of DPS players claiming they would usually or always commend the other dps.

I commend a sprout of any type if I see it, someone who saved the group regardless of class, or just randomly pick a name when I can't choose.

I give my commendation to the most interesting person in the party.
i only comm DPS cause DPS while I feel is the most important role in the party, and since you WILL notice if you have good or bad ones. Plus with the way DPS are treated I'll always comm the DPS. Monks get extra love cause I love monk.
