I am sitting on 40 Vanguard Commendations thanks to ranking up Factions through PVE. My Hunter is the only character I've used in the Crucible as it was my first created character and the one who had the Thorn Bounty for a period of time. I have not played PVP much due to time and lag which has been a big turn off. I have unloaded clips and meleed countless people multiple times only for me to die and two seconds later, the person I was trying to kill spontaneously dies and I get the confirmed kill (non post mortem kills to be precise). Its probably why my KD ratio is in or around 1.0, but it does not matter... My Warlock and Titan are Rank 0 Crucible. Rank 0 to 1 is 1500 XP - 6 Crucible Commendations Rank 1 to 2 is 2000 XP - 8 Crucible Commendations Rank 2 to 3 is 2500 XP - 10 Crucible Commendations In total, it will require 24 Commendations to rank a non ranked Character to Rank 3 Crucible, in which you will be able to purchase Weapons and Armor if you have the marks which are easy to obtain. But the main question is, the [b]Nightfall XP Buff[/b] which is 25%! [b]Will the XP buff be implemented into the Commendation system?[/b] 250 * 0.25 = 62.5 XP = 312.5 XP per Commendation with the NF Buff active. This means 20 Crucible Commendations would get an unranked character to Rank 3 Crucible if the NF Buff is active Will this work?
