Members		Yes

Commendation points are rewards from Pest Control. They can be traded in for a variety of things, including combat experience, Void Knight equipment and various other items. Players are awarded commendation points for every successful defence (3 for novice, 4 for intermediate, and 5 for veteran lander). Players cannot have more than 4000 points at a time.

Experience

A Player can exchange commendation points for Experience in any combat skill that is equal to or greater than level 25.

Bonus experience is awarded for trading in large amounts of points at once. If a player trades in 10 points at once, they get an extra 1% experience; for 100 points at once, they get an extra 10% experience.

The formula, which this table is based on, is as shown below. The amounts are awarded per commendation point traded in.

${\begin{aligned}Exp&=\left\lfloor {\frac {Level^{2}}{600}}\right\rfloor \times N\end{aligned}}$

where

• $Exp$ is experience gained,
• $Level$ is current level of that skill (should be at least 30),
• The factor $N$:
  • If the skill is Prayer: $N=18$
  • If the skill is Magic or Ranged: $N=32$
  • If the skill is Attack, Strength, Defence or Hitpoints: $N=35$
• The $\lfloor \quad \rfloor$ indicate that the expression should be rounded down to the nearest whole number.
