List of Halo: Reach commendations: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 16:56, March 18, 2022

Commendation progress.

Prior to the shutdown of Xbox 360 Halo online services on January 13, 2022, there were forty-five commendations in Halo: Reach.^[1]^[2] Players advanced commendations by playing in campaign, multiplayer, and (online) Firefight gameplay. Players earned credits as they performed certain actions, many of which were medals in and of themselves. Commendations were also intended to serve as an indication of how a given player tended to operate.^[3]

Commendations in Halo: Reach were each represented by an icon plate. These commendations advanced through five levels: Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Onyx before becoming Maxed Out. Upon advancing a commendation to a new level, players received bonus credits. There were 16 campaign, 15 Firefight, and 14 multiplayer commendations. Commendations could not be advanced on the Easy difficulty.

Levels[edit]

Iron rank (1 bar): rewards 100 - 500 cR (Average = 200 cR)

Bronze rank (2 bars): rewards 200 - 1250 cR (Average = 700 cR)

Silver rank (3 bars): rewards 400 - 2000 cR (Average = 1000 cR)

Gold rank (4 bars): rewards 400 - 3000 cR (Average = 2400 cR)

Onyx rank (black bars): rewards 400 - 3000 cR (Average = 2400 cR)

Maxed out commendations looked the same as Onyx, but with flames if viewed on Bungie.net^[4] and Halo Waypoint. There was no cR reward for maxing any commendation.
