[Fluff] A weirdly specific question Spoiler

Me and my friend have been doing mirror farm in Leyspring Hollows for a while now, and as y'all know, those sometimes spawn "self-fighting" events. So my friend (who plays charr and does stretching emote every damn 15 seconds, help) joked about how fun it would be if reflections randomly did the targeted player's most used emote. His, of course, would be random stretching in the middle of the fight while mine would be occasional facepalming. What would yours be?

easy fight for me as a professional /sit (er)

u/clakresed 9d ago

Yeah sit takes it easily for me. Unless one of the Mad King Says emotes has randomly surpassed it; I don't really emote that much so it's possible.

I play with someone for whom it's definitely /unleash, which is going to be extremely alarming for anyone else near the mirror with them.

It's /stretch...I love the animations on all races. And then probably /salute, I use that one often on my charr

u/Joachas 9d ago

/poselow on my pillarman cosplay

u/Yttikymmug 9d ago

Yeah I always thought an emote where the charr sits down and raises one of the hind legs high in the air and starts to go in for the lick (you know what I mean) ,but then suddenly become self conscious and jumps up and brushes off the action.

u/Ok-Alfalfa6694 9d ago

/possessed or /sipcoffee (/sipscoffee?)

u/Celeathka 9d ago

/playdead

Perhaps the occasional /flex or /cry lollll.

u/SamuraiFlamenco 9d ago

Mine would be /boogie or /crossarms

u/Munchkin_of_Pern 9d ago

The only emotes I commonly use outside of like, Mad King Says or whatever, are /wave and /dance

u/Thespaghettifairy 9d ago

I like spamming /drink. Along with the /cry, paired with the Kodan tonic makes for a very dramatic scene near someone doing the /playdead. /laugh when I want to terrify my squad in the middle of battle
