Emote Survey Discussion -

[raven flower]

In case anyone missed it, TL is running an Emote Survey https://forms.gle/ARgnZfdcuMQjcPrM9

I wanted to discuss the feedback here as I feel like this is a big opportunity to help shape the communication in the game.

For the First Standardized Wheel, my feedback submitted is:

These 5 emotes: Chamber, Key, Bones, Ascension, Dust - I have never used once. I would Love:

Treasure chest (just a normal one)
Treasure chest with a Red Elite Face overtop of it (to signify an Elite Chest)
Blessing Altar
Lucido (plz come help me slay the Bone Mole Loot goblin)

and then finally something to imply a "secret" or "secret chamber" - perhaps an exclamation point to show others that they should want to come be where you are for a ground sigil or secret chamber or whatever.

I also think that anytime someone uses an emote it should be more prominently shown to people with the direction of where it's coming from and for a longer duration

My feedback submitted for the 2nd wheel is:

I'd like the "Help me" and "Follow Me" to actually say the words "Help me" and "Follow Me" in addition to the iconography. Same with "ATTACK MOBS"

I do actually think that "Help Me" and "Follow me" could be merged into one, because what I would love to add is something for boss fights that tells people to "FOCUS OBJECTIVE"

and then "Attack Elites" should be replaced with "ATTACK BOSS" as we don't ever need to communicate attacks between rank and file / elite mobs.

Let's discuss!

My biggest gripe with the emotes is that all of the useful emotes are on the second and third pages. I really really want a way that I can customize all of the wheels, rather than just the first one. The animal emotes are not helpful at all and it is frustrating that they are always the first page.

I would like them to be seen from a farther distance

Agree, need to be seen from anywhere, maybe with a spam cooldown after three uses to avoid abuse.

Would be cool if we could pick which wheel it starts on, or perhaps they could work on assigning the really helpful ones to the numbers on keyboard. I use controller but play on PC and I wouldn't mind having to hit something on my keyboard to do a quick emote

[final latch]

instead of changing emotes
maybe if you are near an objetive that need more peopla it appears abutton and i will comunicate the objetive as an emote ?
maybe you tap l1 instead of holding and search for the hand emote

Also if I dont have the map open sometimes you dont see other players asking help

it could be even more simple than that and they could throw up a signal as soon as a player interacts with a Sigil on the ground or attacks a lucido or tries to open a blessing altar or atttacks an elite guarding a chest
