It depends on what job you play too, supportive DPS like BRD and DNC get comms more often than other dps like Viper or Pictomancer, Red Mages also usually get comm'd if they rez people.
I've started playing PCT recently and it's kinda eerie how little I get commended now, probably because people are sick of seeing the job and pass their comm to a different DPS if by some miracle it doesn't go to a tank or healer
Watching forum drama be like
On tank I've asked dps to LB giga pulls (like the Mt gulg one) before. I think so many ranged kinda just forget it exists, but every time I've asked people jump at the chanceI will commend a DPS for using an AoE limit break on a wall to wall pull. However, I will also specifically not commend a person who tells me to Limit Break. I find it incredibly annoying. Otherwise I just commend whoever seemed the most engaged.
Most of the time people leave so fast that I just commend the leftovers, though.
I always give mine to dps unless they did awful in the duty. Not sure what point of getting coms if you already have all the achievements.
As a DPS main, I'm sitting on a cool 8830ish comms. I just kinda chill, slap my silly buttons, and do whatever I can do to be greedy/make everything take less time. I have stuff to craft. When I play heals/Tank, the comms don't matter to me since those roles just get them for existing most of the time. There's a satisfaction you get when you get 3+ comms as a selfish dps, not so much when I'm eating a burrito and pressing a heal/mit.
I only comm other DPS if I even bother sticking around to comm. Tanks and healers only get em if I notice they're really good, and if they KEEP THE THING STILL AND LET ME GET MY POSITIONALS/stay in the ground aoes other jobs slap down.
I only comm DRGs.
Comms for me are irrelevant but I get a pinch of the sadness when my fellow DPS doesn't comm me back. Especially if we get through the dungeon super fast and both play really well. Like "hey man, you and me? We cleared that shit. Go team!"
Then you leave the dungeon and find out they didn't think you good enough for a commendation. Breaks my heart, I thought we HAD something together!
I don't comm the tank or heals unless they were spectacular or rezzed me. Otherwise I pump all my comms into one of the dps to try and offset the ridiculous imbalance that normally happens.
