Guardian Commendations Farm

• The Commendation Score you set with the slider, earned on your account.
• Commendations from other players, in the types they choose.
• Loot dropped in the activities played while the score builds.

After an activity a player can give others commendations from sixteen types, such as Joy Bringer, Indispensable, Selfless, Heroic, Playmaker or Pacesetter. They sit in four groups: Ally, Mastery, Fun and Leadership. Players hand them out from the mission summary at the end of an activity. Bungie fixed the display of counts above three digits in Update 9.7.0, so large totals show correctly.

The score is a visible sign of how other players rate you. Guardian Ranks remain after Update 9.7.0, but none of their current objectives in the game data asks for Commendation Score. Because commendations come from other players, the amount builds over many activities rather than one run.

• A Destiny 2 account with Guardian Ranks unlocked, which Bungie lists among the systems available to all players.

Can I pick which commendation types arrive?

No. Other players choose the type, so the order sets the score total, not the mix.

Is there an upper limit?

The slider stops at 2,000 points per order.

What are the steps?

The slider moves in steps of 50 points, from 50 up to 2,000 per order.
