Emote and crafting.

[Thunder Lord]

After much experiment I have found out that if you emote at least three times while crafting somthing your probablity of sucess is marginally higher!


So use emtoes now on everyone!

[Cuusardo]

Are you 200% sure about the emtoes?

[Cale_Knight]

But... but... I don't want to succeed. I want to fail and increase my crafting skill!

I'll have to admit, it is a great deal more fun spending several hours crafting wood when I do more emotes.

I emote a lot less now after I did the same thing for the 27th time...

I emote a lot less now after I did the same thing for the 27th time...

I tend to emote the unusual.    First time trying a new item...  10th failure in a row.. trying out a new tool.   Making a special request... or order.    Being taught or teaching..   Showing off for a new boss....  The routine I see no need to emote.. other wise we will get.

Emote places one foot in front of the other in a carefully controlled fall as he walks to the north at a controlled pace.
North

So and so walks north.

You should always emote when crafting.. you should emote when you do any activity.. Even skinning. I don't think there is a coded benefit to emoting during these things but it does move the pace along a bit for you and gets you into your role. If I am crafting arrows or something spammy like that, breaking up bones, making travel cakes, chopping wood. I tend to emote once every other attempt and change my ldesc to reflect whatever it is I am doing.

Also, some non-coded benefits would be a chance to expand and improve your vocabulary skills and your typing skills and those are always handy skills. I mean, not as useful as numchuk skills, but you can't practice those and emote at the same time.

Emotes make you branch skills. It's how my warrior got wagoncrafting and poison.

I got Read/Write Tatlum from a lengthy RP session involving the best travel-cake emotes this side of the Shield Wall.

That's it, you discovered the truth.

Every emote done while crafting gives you a 4.5893785% increase in your ability to craft.  Well, that is if the position of Lirathu is high, Jihaen is low, the Sun is down (except if it's the last 3 days of the week, in which case the Sun is up) you're in position_sleeping, you're affected by Poison, you're a gith, and you recently got in a fight, but only if you lost 22.553% of your total hitpoints (but only then if those hit points are increased by at least 2.3532% of your maximum by gear that is made out of sandcloth, braxat hide, and the piss of a mekillot who was no more than 14 years of age, but no less than 8 years of age).

That is the truth.

In the words of Tenebrius:  "The truth is in my pants.. and the truth is big!"

And you guys thought I emoted during combat because I'm worried about adding to the scene.

Feh, that extra kick success that 3 emotes grants you has saved my butt several times.
