I want to get this cleared up by a dev, and am honestly surprised there hasn’t been some kind of formal post about it already.

How many commendations are we actually supposed to be receiving, and from what actions, barring what time constraints?

Every single person I talk to is sure they have it figured out but they all seem to involve separate theory’s.

-Some believe its a weekly thing that resets sometime during the weekend, with the belief that you can only receive 2 commendations per week for each guild event (up to 5 events, which most guilds have not unlocked more than bounties).

-Some believe its a daily thing revolving around a 24 hour reset much like the EB jp chest.

-Some believe you can gain two commendations per tier, per week.

Which is it? Or is it something completely different?

Also, I realize this isn’t really a topic of general discussion, but of the 3 times I have sent in a bug report and a formal ticket, I have never received any kind of response, nor has the players helping other players forum ever been overly helpful. At least if you feel the need to lock or remove this thread, I will know that you are, at least aware of it.

Thank You, That is all.

You only get 2 commendations per guild mission per week except Guild Trek mission as that mission doesn’t award commendations. Guild Mission rewards resets the same time as WvW scores.

Trek doesn’t award commendations? Why? First we are forced to even upgrade that to move on, on top of that it has no personal incentives for other guildies to actually do it.

No idea man. It seems weird to me too but that’s what Dulfy wrote. Guild still do it for the extra Guild Merits.

Dulfy also wrote: “Guild Mission merit reward weekly reset time: Saturday evening (7pm EST) – same time as the daily reset time.”

So I take it those people in chat who link 20+ commendations are just exploiting or lying?

Exploiting most likely.

If trek doesnt give anything, the maximum per week should be 8 commendations.

I can’t say what is right, but I can say this is wrong. I ran my first bounty on Saturday at 3:00 CST — tier 2. I received personal rewards including 2 guild commendations. I ran my second bounty on Wednesday at 8:30 CST — tier 1. I received personal rewards including 2 guild commendations. I have read that the reset time is server reset on Saturday and I tend to believe that is the case, but it is definitely not Friday at WvW reset.

Another question that I have that isn’t answered here: Can you get rewards a second time if you do a bounty while representing another guild?

They are getting their commendations from multiple guilds.

Actions, not words.

I thought commendations are linked to character/account, not guild?

There is code to link anything in the game that you do not have in your bags. So people linking 20+ commendations are just trolling you.

I think you are correct. I have done bounties back to back in separate guilds and did not receive any extra commendations. Ofc my one experience is not indicative of definitive occurance, but oh well.

Interesting. Happen to know where such a thing might be found?

No sorry, did not look into that myself, just know it from a guild member who used it once to show that it is possible.

I got my first 4 before both, the last two were after the patch last weekend..since then our guild has stopped doing them, one reward a week = waste of time and influence honestly..

The only information that is confirmed as of this time is that guild bounties may or may not award you comms at some time interval.

Anything beyond that is just speculation and varies from person to person.

Some people claim they reset friday night. Others claim they reset every 24 hours. Some say they reset with server resets. From my personal experience the only time they have reset was saturday night.

Some people say each mission type awards comms, others say that only bounties award comms. Some say that you get 2 per week total from the first mission you run of any kind ad that is it. Some say every type except trek awards comms (not sure how people got that theory as only bounty and trek are currently available. The most logical of those is that you get 2 per week period regardless of mission type. That explains why no one is getting comms from trek this week as they had to do bounty first to unlock trek but then they had already received their 2 weekly comms.

Until the devs decide we are worthy of knowing how their “features” work we are just in the dark subject to exploiters who have 20+ comms already.
