Hey folks,

I wanted to let you know about what changes are coming to Commendations in Fallen Empire, this way you can plan accordingly. Simply put, only the names of some existing Commendations are changing. There are no conversion rates or anything this time around.

• Basic Commendations will now be called Common Data Crystals
• Elite Commendations will now be called Glowing Data Crystals
• Ultimate Commendations will now be called Radiant Data Crystals
• All other Commendation names remain the same.

Again, there are no conversion rates pre/post Fallen Empire. Thanks!

Why????!!

Basic > Elite > Ultimate is so straight forward and easy to understand.

Common (I can get behind this one) > Glowing (ugh..) > Radiant (...)

If it ain't broke...

I guess they're changing the names because "Commendations" makes less sense in the new story line?

That would be my guess, yes. The crystals probably have something to do with the storyline and a "new" currency to collect after the time skip.

It may be a throwback to level 50 when we got those Tionese crystals.
