Emote guide
Emotes
Emotes are text commands that make your toons execute specific actions. They are really fun to use, and bring life to your characters
To use an emote, press enter and the emote syntax, wich is generally composed of a dash followed by the emote you desire, like this:
/emote
If you use a space and an asterisk after the desired emote, your toon will perform that emote on the next "pulse". This is used to syncronize your emotes with those of other people. For example, if two different people type /bow * they will bow towards each other at the same time, a couple moments after pressing enter each. So the syntax to syncronize emotes would be:
/emote *

Paper beats Rock that beats Scissors that beats Paper.
Rolling Dice
/Roll #
This emote will roll a dice, you provide the number of faces. For example /roll 6 will roll a D6. Can be used in the same manner as Paper, Rock and Scissors, either for fun or for deciding something. This emote can't be used in towns, outposts and mission starting areas. (Many times I roll a d2 in order to make decisions)
