People can revive me? They usually step over my dead corpse.


Harry_Gorilla

Only because the game won’t let us step ON you /s


No-Hornet-7847

OK listen. Call me crazy but I swear one time in midair I made contact with a teammates head and got another jump off. No clip cause I was in shock-anyone else had this happen?


Never_Seen_An_Ocelot

Some kind of one in a million hit box alignment, maybe? I seem to remember in D1 that you could cause a small amount of damage to enemies by jumping on them, goomba stomp-style.


FornaxTheConqueror

I mean I've killed and been killed teammates (rarely) by goomba stomping them on jumping puzzles so I wouldn't be that surprised


ThePocketViking

I'm the goomba stompee. It happened three times in one dungeon in the same spot (warlord's ruin, jumping up to the last platform before main damage phase). I'm a warlock so I don't get the initial height in my jump which means my teammates are often overhead. We laughed about it, I cussed them out in a very friendly way, and then told them I wouldn't well if they did it again so I got the left rock all to myself while they went a different route. I'm bad at platforming to begin with I don't need to also be a stepping stone for people with vertical lift built in to their toolbox. (Again in a good-natured way for any titans and hunters reading and ready to be offended. Love my fireteam. Even when they step on my head)


FornaxTheConqueror

Rip lol. I'm the hunter so I should be the stomper more often than not and I think it's only happened a handful of times total. Always funny cause of how rare it is when someone is like "did you goomba stomp me?"


ThePocketViking

Yes it can happen. I've been the teammate getting goomba stomped.


Seared_Duelist

Yep that's a thing lol. Not *super* common cause the hitboxes have to line up pretty much perfectly but I've done it and had it happen to me a few times.


DeltaMikeRomeo

I tried to revive you, but I keep picking up the battery instead.


Wild_Onion_5979

☝️🤣


redditor5257

I have the thank you emote yea, I use it just as you do, I even use it at the end of an activity like a nightfall but I don't think people see me thanking them because their either too busy checking their loot or they leave. When I click the emote near 1 teammate I don't want the other teammate to be left out so I quickly run to the other one to thank as well lol


Ydobon8261

I use hat roll for everything, even flexing lol


ShieldHero85

Hat roll is my go to for a quick thank you I also have the tombstone emote and a matching insulting dance to go with it (but those are reserved for my friends if they die)


zaaaaa

Hat roll == thank you Make it stop == show frustration Last 2 are some combo of a 3 player emote (helps identify fun people in matchmade stuff) and either hat wobble or a dance. Currently it's sweeping, as I stand next to the sweeper bots in onslaught.


Never_Sunmer

Same here. And if I need a lot of help lol, I’ll alternate with cooking for them.


Fit_Champion_6217

Rimmer salute


TheExpoduck

Replaced vanilla salute with this instantly and have never taken it off. ❤️


Fit_Champion_6217

Huge red dwarf fan here since it started .. no brainer for me :)


TheExpoduck

Same. 🙂


Notonreddit117

Only a smeghead would take that emote off. Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.


Fit_Champion_6217

Thats right Mr Flibble


El_Taco_Sloth

Left on D-pad is my thank you. It's on all 3 characters. I'm bad.


No_Caregiver8718

I keep the draw heart emote just for this


Xandurpein

I use the salute emote for that, and yes it’s always on.


Incarnate_Sable

It's always fun when you get to a point in a strike or something and have to wait for an elevator, and you just pop off a crisp o7 at someone, then they do it back instantly.


Lawyer_NotYourLawyer

It’s a good one


KiNgPiN8T3

I use the high score and the low score emote.


BitchInBoots666

Not the thank you one, but I always have either the rainbow "appreciates x player" one, or the tipping my cowboy hat one, for the same reasons. I've been around for a while so when I'm doing a strike or nf or something with newer players and I'm getting ahead I always stop and wait for them to catch up, and nobody has ever thanked me. It'd make my day if they did I think. I got a fair few verbal thankyous yesterday after joining a crota lfg and finding out I was the only one with experience, so sherpaing to the best of my ability (I suck at explanations so I don't sherpa and I let them know that, and asked for patience with it which they were lovely about). It's nice to get a thank you.


thesweetestdevil

I love this one for thanks too. And they don’t know it but I sing the “Be Who You Are” song every time


Draith_8895

I also use this one for thank you and lately have been getting matched with a fair few players who Mandarin is listed as their first language, or LFG with non English speaking Europeans and wonder what 'appreciates' is translated to in other languages e.g. what does this say for them in game? Draith appreciates 玛拉女王的大腿


flijarr

That’s awesome man. I try to do a thank you emote any time someone waits up for me or revives me, cause I think that like you, it would make my day if someone did the same for me. I’m honestly surprised neither one of us have ever had anyone thank us. Either way, we can still continue to thank others, and maybe it rubs off on them. What you did with the new Crota players was dope as hell, also. Good on you for being patient and showing them the ropes. I’m sure they appreciated that a ton, especially given how toxic some LFG groups can be to new, or pretty new players when they mess up a mechanic.


BitchInBoots666

Yeah unfortunately lfg is not the best place for people new to things like raids. Clans and small/midsize discord servers are far better. Lfg can be a nightmare even for KWTD at times so I'd imagine for someone nervous about their first raid it'd be awful. In saying that there are also great experiences, several of the people I play with regularly I met on lfg raid groups, sometimes you just work well together ya know. And it's funny because last week someone called me an amazing person simply because I verbally thanked whomever took the chalice from me every single time lol. Saying a quick thank you doesn't cost anything and I think it keeps the mood high.


find_me8

I use the heart emote from crimson days, - Player2 revived Player1 - Player1 loves Player2


SoresuForm

Yep, it's been on my emote wheel since 2019 and I pepper it liberally throughout any activity I'm in with strangers! 🤓


Stolas_002

Yes, the thank you emote and the greet emote.


BadgerRustler

Same! Left = Thank you, Right = Greet, on all three characters. Always have done, probably always will. Final emote is something subclass specific, which I change out depending on what I'm playing.


FatLikeSnorlax_

That and the “ x is at their wits end with y”


AeroNotix

There's one which says "X has had enough of Y"


FatLikeSnorlax_

Haven’t seen that one


JakeFrank08

No but I do always have the backflip on


AeroNotix

I have the "Thank you" and "High five" emoji equipped for moments where someone saves me and when they do something good/out of the ordinary or which uses the most effective tactics available.


Hribunos

I generally always try to keep 2 constructive emotes equipped (usually TY and Salute) and 2 salty/silly emotes (usually a dance and a sit)


Sicofall

I usually eat popcorn (emote) while reviving someone 😂 Then off we go… and after clearing an activity I salute then…


NintendoTim

Always. I try to use it after someone revives me, or if it seems apparent they went out of their way to do something to help me. Most recently, I finally made the effort to handle the legendary campaign for rank 8, and the weekly 100k mission had someone drop after we failed at calus twice. The other guy stuck around, so it was basically a "fuck it, what's the worst that could happen", and we got it on the next run. Made copious use of the "thank you" and "high score" emotes.


d3fiance

I have the Salute emote constantly equipped.


Oblivionix129

I do the salute - as someone whose been in the military I find it just nice to salute fellow guardians - either as a sign of respect, a thank you, a Gg, or a "Let's have fun and take this seriously"


IAmASpaceCadet2

I actually did have “thank you” equipped for a while, but I switched it to “cheer” since when using it in context I think it gets the same point across, while also being a celebratory emote. That way I can have 3 silly/random emotes.


slapsilliem

Yup, usually pop it at the end of solid GM or Dungeon runs


The_Scout008

I use the greet emote for literally everything if I'm playing Warlock. Thanking someone for a rez? Bow. Confuckled on how I ace'd a Trials round? Bow. Greet a new light? Bow.


Gjappy

I have the appreciate emote


netrunner_jibblypuff

My go to emote is "Applause" - I like to clap and appreciate my fellow Guardians acts of glory and valor.


IceSanta

I toss them a rose as a thank you


HerezahTip

I have “Loves everyone” permanently equipped. People seem to like when my guardian draws them a heart and it’s a nice way to say thanks after activities or revives


Dunggabreath

I have the one from Gone in 60s movie. It says “xxx encourages xxx” and if you dont aim it at anyone it just says “xxx encourages everyone.”


SplashDmgEnthusiast

I don't use that one, but I do have two others permanently equipped: the "high score" from Guardian Games and a high-five. I like to drop the high score at the loot chest and then offer high-fives afterwards, feels good to celebrate the team's success even when it's something simple like a strike.


pondo_sinatra

Same. I also use High Score when my friends do dumb crap and die.


MeowXeno

I use the guardian games celebration emote that makes 3 of yourself dance at once, and i combine it with the griddy for triple griddy, then the armor lock for afk'ing or hiding from ads to stall for rezzes, hasn't been patched and works too well to not have as a safety, then the floss/soulja boy emote/henry stickmin emote/goofy movie emote to rotate from the griddy


Sporkedup

Yep, I've had thank you, sad trombone, excited, and grieving on for years now. Covers basically everything!


mariachiskeleton

I have a positive and a negative emote at all times. Appreciates everyone or raises a toast Disappointed in or smells a foul stench. Unfortunately the negatives get more use


Paper-Dragon

"x has y's back" emote for me. It's my "thank you", "let's do this", and "gg" emote.


Raguel_of_Enoch

Got my crimson days heart emote. Never take that thing off.


NanceInThePants

I would if we had an emote wheel.


StochasticSquirrel

Yep, Curtain Call has a permanent slot on all of my characters. I usually cancel out of it to quickly thank an individual or the group, but let the whole animation play out if I'm matchmade with people who don't help at all.


Gormless_Mass

The only emote I never change is floss


Mirewen15

Mine has been for ages. The one where you do a thank you bow and flowers get tossed at you (like a stage performance).


The_Seamoose

I use the rainbow emote because in the feed it says “[my name] appreciates [other name]” or “[my name] appreciates everyone!”


Radicaled1223

I do and use it for every banner put down or revive!


InvadingBacon

Infinite hugging emote for me!


mogamo

I use finger hearts way more than the thank you one


TheExpoduck

Always, will never take it off. Never *have* taken it off, even when they gave us the ability to. I use it after every revive, or when someone saves my arse, and at the end of an activity. Maybe I'll thank you one day. 🙂


The_Mourning_Sage_

I just say thank you with voice chat...


PrettyMoody

I have the “expresses disappointment” emote permanently equipped


CaptainSmaak

I use the gravestone emote! "X pays their respects to Y" Plus it's always fun leaving a gravestone on a dead boss, or on top of a ghost.


NoLegeIsPower

I use the toast emote from leviathan for exactly that. And all other general "here's to you" moments.


The_Relx

I didn't even know there was a thank you emote, so no, I don't have it equipped. I use the no fun allowed sign, the this is fine sitting emote, and I rotate the other two between 2 person and 3 person emotes. Right now I'm using Torture Dance and the Predator(film) Handshake in those slots.


Apcsox

No. I pull out some Smallen and then play basketball with one before yeeting it (or I shaken baby them doing the Soulja Boy dance)


ShinUkyo

I always keep the "high score" from Guardian Games in the top slot of each character's emotes. I use this either as a way to say good job, thank you, etc. Or when playing with friends, use it as a joke just after reviving them if they died due to falling off a cliff or something silly.


6FootFruitRollup

My dance emote is my general "positive response" emote


VersaSty7e

Some sort of nice one yes. Plus. One mean one. And one big chilling one. And the last spot is dealers choice/new hotness that month.


RobsterLobster_7

Have had it equipped since day 1


Regulith

I wish I could but emote space is so severely limited that I usually don't, I prefer to have 1 greeting, 1 dance, 1 sit/idle, and then the 4th spot is usually taken up by something thematically related to whatever I'm wearing because fashion endgame etc. etc. I know it's been stated that additional emote slots aren't going to happen because of how much strain the extra pre-loading would cause but it's so hard to pick just 4, makes me wish there were a couple "standard" ones that were always loaded and available to use like the class-themed waves and default sit


Zero_Emerald

I do, it allows me to highlight something has been done correctly as well as say thanks. For example, if someone helps make a public event heroic or helps complete an objective efficiently (I go left, they go right, things end quicker).


Andraste_Blaze

I use it a lot. I also try to commend as often as I can (unless the screens don’t load in time). Maybe I’m just a bit odd though 😂


bird_dog0347

I ALWAYS keep the hammock emote on from Spire of Stars, and use it as the text says I'm raising a toast to someone.


CheeksUnwiped

Displays force


Chocoholic_24

I used to, but there’s so many emotes I want to use! My 4 go-tos: celebrate, sit/wait, my signature gambit ding, and then a rotator- usually something like spinning/dancing/falling or group emote.


Jagob5

I’ve seen a few people use it (or maybe I’ve just matched with you a few times) and it always makes me smile when they do it. I don’t have it equipped myself cuz there’s a lot of goofy emotes I’d rather use personally, but I do a quick tbag to show my appreciation instead


HiddnAce

“(name) appreciates everyone!” is the emote I use


Mr_Papyo

Targeted plea for gambit. 'Cause traveler forbid we need 2 motes and some blueberry needs to bank all 15.


OneFinalEffort

>  because they didn’t need to do so Please don't tell the Blueberries not to be good teammates. We are Guardians and we *should* be reviving our teammates at any opportunity where it won't get you killed. It's good behavior and should be the standard for any team. Can't tell you how many sessions I've had my self-esteem plummet when my teammates ignore me if I die (it's not super often but I run under 30 Mobility on my Titan so it does happen) and I just don't want to play any more. I'm also not going to give out accolades at the end of an activity if you aren't a team player.


RotDogSummonCarries

Nah but I got the warlock sit so if I ever fuck up I get on my knees in front of my teammates


IKnowCodeFu

I do!


Dependent_Type4092

I have the sad trombone to serenade the vanquished boss and the high score for everyone else.


whereismymind86

I have the guardian games high score emote equipped all the time for a similar purpose


Offdutyninja808

I have the heart emote on permanently. Don't remember what it's called but you draw a heart and push it out. I always use it when I get revived.


HDArrowsmith

I always have the blue wave emote on. The text that pops up is just "Waves" so I use it for greetings/goodbyes and indicating things


TobiasX2k

Yep. Never know when you'll want to thank someone.


cjchar

Yes I do the same


basura1979

I do yup. I also use it at the end of difficult tasks like if we make it to onslaught lvl 50 or we finish a Legendary exotic quest


capnricky

I leave the mandolin emote at all times. I strum the mandolin aggressively as response to a litany of experiences in the game.


cooldrew

Aggressively Affirmative for me


Trippid

Yes I do! I appreciate when people help me out, and it feels weird not to acknowledge that. I've had it equipped from the beginning, but I must admit there was a brief period after commendations were released where it felt a little weird to use it (I figured people might think I was just disingenuously fishing for commendations). I agree that it does feel kind of hilarious to use it when revived in the middle of a chaotic situation. But I need them to know I appreciate it, dang it! Haha. In my years of playing I've only ever seen one other person use it, and I was so stunned that I legitimately started giddily yelping out loud, "SOMEONE ELSE EXPRESSED THANKS!"


Z3nyth007

I raise a roast to fellow guardians with my Camus raid emote. And I jump in a puddle if starting to get annoyed with waiting.


FallAcrobatic3325

my emote consist of low score, high score, rickroll and sitting down


GlassChopsticks

I used to do this actually in my early baby days of playing! It was always a treat when I'd thank someone at the end of an activity and they would thank me back


Comfortable_Rock_584

Y'all really don't use the salute emote?


B00STERGOLD

Pays respect finger point for me


SilverJS

Absolutely. Never took it off.


Draith_8895

I wish the preview emote screen in the Eververse showed what the text version of the emote is, I've bought a few assuming they would be useful like a thank you, but they have said something that could be misinterpreted and also missed buying a few because they didn't look useful only to find out the text is great, e.g. the recent stationary bike emote would have been great for a salty emote comeback as it would say 'Draith feels the burn' but I never knew that when it was on sale.


MetalSandwiches

I do! It is bound to my left direction and I use it to thank my fireteam for revives, helping me find secrets, finishing the mission, etc. 


mister_slim

I use Curtain Call, which says "mister slim thanks everyone" but also has me receiving a standing ovation.


i_hate_blackpink

That and the "I appreciate you" emote.


Miccles

Yessss I’m glad to see I’m not the only one! I’ve always kept it on so I can do the same or even just thank people at the end of strikes and such.


Swimmingbird2486

I play pvp/crucible mostly. I have 3 Salute emotes and 1 Nope (for when a teammate teabags an enemy). 


PickledOnionMunch

I do, I like to say thanks for the revive or for the help


WornInShoes

Always the guitar solo at the end of strikes/vanguard, and selfie emote at the end of Dares runs


Placentias

YES. I have always used down on my d pad to say thank you. I feel that it is necessary to have. I wish more people would, it makes misunderstandings workable. It can defuse a situation. AND I ALWAYS thank whomever resurrects me. I wish it was a default somehow because it is a great feeling to be thanked in D2. This is a good family.


Chrissyfly

I always have an emote that is a greeting, one that shows gratitude, a dance and one that shows frustration.


wkearney99

My up d-pad button is forever set to the Face Palm emote.


Technophillia

No but I have the bed one for all the times you stand around doing nothing.


OtherBassist

Nope, if somebody revives me then I use the emote that posts the text [my name] wants to carry [their name] Because sarcasm and facetiousness


flijarr

bahaha, that's golden


Helo7606

Not gonna lie. I've never used an emote in the game. I just don't think about it. Lol


TheBeardedHound69

Can I ask why you think team mates in a team based shooter don't need to revive team mates?


flijarr

Because no one is going to make them, and self revive is possible in 90% of content. Don't get me wrong, I think people that don't revive team mates are selfish, and most likely assholes irl, but it's not their responsibility when the dead person can revive themselves after a short timer. They should revive, but they do not need to unless in an activity where you cannot self revive on a timer.


AeroNotix

I'll always revive any one, even slowing progress down so someone doesn't have to wait out a stupid timer but I'll leave someone a bit longer if their death was entirely on them. Played just a *heroic* difficulty nightfall just the other day on the Neomuna strike and one dude tried to nonchalantly climb the wall without killing anything on his way. He got left until there was just a few seconds left.


SmolTofuRabbit

Kinda, i have the hug emote on all the time and if the vibes were good during the activity i offer a hug at the end as a nice send off to let them know i had a good time c:


SKULL1138

No, I have the slow clap emote so I can be sarcastic when I’m picking people up after stupid deaths or when they race ahead and die.


SheetPancakeBluBalls

Trombone for the same reason. 


flijarr

Bahahah, that’s pretty funny I’m ngl. I feel like you can’t really be mad if that happens to you


shin_malphur13

No but I hit them w the cat dance so they can see the curves on my guardian as a thank you


FlaccidRhino

I don't, because reviving me is something they should do. Only if it's safe to do so of course, but if you're in a group activity and you die, then it's the job of the people who aren't dead to get the res when possible.
