Commendation: Diplomatic

The Diplomatic commendation branch comprises the diplomacy game-play for Federation players in Star Trek Online. For players of the Klingon Empire, the corresponding commendation branch is called Marauding.

Commendation ranks are obtained through collecting diplomatic commendation XP (Diplomatic CXP or DXP ). DXP can be gained by duty officer assignments and by completing diplomacy missions given by the Federation Diplomatic Corps.
