Emotes

Emotes are animations that a player can select for their character to perform. Before Quick Chat was released, emotes were the only way for muted players to communicate. Some emotes are P2P only, and some others are gained from P2P but can also be used in F2P servers.

Emotes are used for entertainment and sometimes for clue scrolls. They generally do not give any bonuses.

Most emotes can be activated from the Emotes interface.

Emote images that can be fully viewed (colour and all) represent emotes that you have unlocked; either by default, or through the completion of a certain quest or event. Blacked out emote images represent the emotes you have yet to unlock. Though you cannot view the full icon of locked emotes (just the black frame), you can still move your cursor over each one to learn its name, while clicking it tells you what you have to do to obtain it.

Several items have "built-in" emotes, which are unique to each item (such as a Rubber chicken). As such, these special emotes do not appear in the standard emote menu, and you must manually operate these emotes by using the item.

Note: More than one emote cannot be used simultaneously. Trying to do so will result in a chatbox message reading "You're already doing an emote!"

Default Emotes
Default emotes are unlocked after player has completed the tutorial quest Unstable Foundations.

Skillcape Emote


The Skillcape emote is unlocked when a player first wears a Cape of Achievement, gained by purchasing one after gaining level 99 in a skill, or completing all the quests to obtain the Quest point cape. Using this emote will perform an emote respective to the current equipped Cape of Achievement, as each skillcape has a different emote.

Subsequently, it can only be performed while the player has a Cape of Achievement equipped. Note that players will have to be wearing the cape, as wearing the matching hood would not enable the emote to be performed. If used without an equipped Cape of Achievement, the player gets a message, "You need to be wearing a Skill Cape in order to perform that emote."

Capes of Distinction
The Max cape, Veteran cape, Classic cape and Completisionist cape all have their own unique emotes, which also unlock and use the Skillcape emote. Similarly to the Capes of Achievement the emote can only be performed if the player has a Cape of Distinction equipped.

They were hinted in the "May Behind the Scenes" article and were released on May 3, 2011.

Emote Bugs
There are several of emote glitches, for example, you can do the freeze emote whilst lighting a fire. One of these bugs is activated by using the freeze emote beside the Grand Exchange underwall tunnel agility shortcut and quickly using it. It is unconfirmed whether this works on any other underwall shortcuts. Also if you walk and do the same emote the ice appears but your character will not sink into the ground. (this was later fixed.)

You could also freeze the Lumbridge Home Teleport by clicking an emote whilst performing the teleport.

You can make emote created objects (lightbulb, bats, etc.) do the emote while you are safespotting any monster who cannot fight back. This glitch has not been fixed.

It was also possible, if you had previously had an unavailable emote, you could turn on prayers and click the emote resulting in infinite prayer points until the dialogue box went away. Player-killers tended to abuse this bug while it was still working, because they did not have to waste prayer points from having to keep protection prayers on to avoid being rushed. It has since been fixed.



Trivia

 * With the recent introduction of the emote-delay limit, players can only do one emote at a time. The limit goes into effect until the emote's animation has ended. A lot of glitches involving the Give Thanks emote or overlapping of other emotes have been fixed as a result. Attempts to do more than one emote results in the message "You're already doing an emote!"
 * There currently is an emote glitch where the head is stretched.Emote glitch head.jpg
 * If you do the Dramatic Point or the Woodcutting cape's emote and click on some objects like net traps or bankers, your player turns round halfway through the emote and faces what you clicked.
 * It seems that the symbol for the Cry, Blow Kiss, Panic, Raspberry, and Air Guitar emotes is Romeo.
 * If a player tries to do an emote while resting they will get a chatbox message saying, "Emotes aren't very restful."
 * It is possible to make emotes in egg, stone or monkey form. Only the emote-created items like the light bulb or zombie hand will appear.
 * It was possible to combine Air Guitar with Snowman Dance. This was done clicking the Snowman Dance emote, quickly followed by the Air Guitar emote. This glitch was fixed and is no longer possible.
 * Pelting a player wearing the Quest Points cape with a snowball caused the quest logo to disappear from above the cape wearer's head. This has now been corrected as it was not intended to happen.
 * If you used Lumbridge Home Teleport, followed by the Freeze and Melt emote, and then clicked on an monster far away, you will be able to run in a fast burst of speed after the melting phase of the emote.
 * Emotes from random events were updated on 25 February 2009.
 * If you whack a person with the Easter Carrot and quickly use Around The World In Eggty Days, you end up standing still while the smoke appears, and then the chocolate egg falls into your hands and you eat it without moving. To others you seem to disappear without doing the emote.
 * While doing the Freeze emote, you could change your clothes and turn into an egg when your character appears to be underground. (This has been fixed)
 * While chopping a tree, you could select an emote and you could be "chopping a tree with bare hands" or something else. This glitch has now been changed.
 * Due to a hidden update, you can no longer perform emotes while in combat, although you can still do an emote before a player or monster attacks you.
 * Attempting to do an emote in the Stealing Creation and Barbarian Assault waiting room results in the message, "You might miss the start of the game!"
 * Using the Blow Kiss, Idea, Safety First, Explore, Trick, Freeze, or Around the World In Eggty Days emote in a very populated area, e.g. G.E., Falador Party Room, will result in the item in the emote not appearing (e.g. no heart in Blow Kiss, no light bulb in Idea, no shield in Safety First, no sextant in Explore, no bats in Trick, no ice in Freeze, and no egg in Around the World In Eggty Days). This most likely isn't a glitch, but a way to keep the game running smoothly. In these areas, weapons are all held the same way and capes don't flutter. Strangely, the hand in the Zombie Hand emote still appears in such areas.
 * There was a glitch where the player could sit down and do a skillcape emote at the same time. It was performed by clicking the 'Rest' button and then quickly clicking the skillcape emote. This glitch has been fixed.
 * If you try to do an emote in the Soul Wars activity, you get the message "This is a battleground, not a circus."
 * Before RuneScape HD came out, there was a glitch where if the player performed the Idea emote then the Goblin Salute emote, it would appear that the player were changing a light bulb that appeared above his/her head.
 * There is a glitch where if the player does the Zombie Hand emote imemdiately followed by Around the World in Eggty Days, Trick, Freeze and Melt, Idea, or Blow Kiss, the player won't move with the emote.
 * If you do an emote while leaning on the walls of Al-Kharid Duel Arena, only added items like light bulbs and shields pop up. The character will remain in an idle animation.
 * If you do a skillcape emote over a trapdoor in the Throne Room of a POH, you will stay above the trapdoor, regardless of a player pulling the lever.
 * If you do an emote that requires other sprites (e.g: Blow Kiss, Idea, Trick, Skillcape, etc) in a slime pool in the Oubliette of a POH, your character will not do the emote, but the other sprites will appear. (Light bulb, bats, heart, etc.)
 * Jagex may be adding multi-player emotes.
 * There was a glitch where if you used the Explore emote, clicked on a spot on the minimap, and rapidly clicked the Give Thanks emote, your character would be doing the Give Thanks emote in a strange way and move at the same time.
