Commendations are the Sea of Thieves achievement system, and are awarded after certain requirements are fulfilled. The list of commendations for each faction can be viewed within your reputation page (after opening the page, select which faction to view its list). Most Company commendations have five grades, with increasing requirements for higher grades. These requirements are, however, cumulative; which means progress made will also also count towards future grades.
Some commendations unlock cosmetics or titles for purchase or immediate use. Other commendations may grant Doubloons. All commendations listed under a specific company will reward you a small amount of Reputation, for graded commendations this is rewarded once per grade.
Unless noted otherwise, titles & cosmetics are only rewarded upon reaching the maximum commendation grade.
