How to Use Emotes in The First Descendant

Let me tell you, one of the best ways to show how you feel in the game these days is to use emoticons. But if you don't know how to use it, don't worry anymore, here is a complete guide that will help you:

How to Use Emotes in The First Descendant

Emote Activation:

Emote Wheel Access: Press the designated key ("L" on keyboard by default) or utilize the left D-Pad button on a controller to activate the emote wheel.

Emote Selection: Employ your mouse or joystick to navigate the emote wheel and choose the desired emote.

Emote Performance: Upon selection, your character will perform the chosen emote within the game environment. The emote wheel will then automatically disappear.

Default Emote Set:

The initial emote wheel provides a foundational set of emotes, including greetings, gestures of acknowledgement, and expressions of disapproval.

Obtaining New Emotes (Free):

Area-Specific Awards: Completion of designated tasks within specific regions unlocks emotes thematically linked to those areas. Access these awards via the sub-menu situated in the top-left corner of the inventory screen.

Example: Completing tasks in the Sterile Lands grants access to the "Sad" emote, while Vespers tasks unlock the "Sullen" emote.

Obtaining New Emotes (Free and Premium):

Battle Pass Progression: Advancing through Battle Pass tiers rewards players with both complimentary and premium emotes.

Premium emotes necessitate the expenditure of Caliber, the in-game currency.

Caliber Usage Recommendation:

This guide emphasizes prioritizing Caliber for strategic purchases that directly enhance gameplay, such as experience boosts or additional Descendants (playable characters). The First Descendant is designed to be accessible without a pay-to-win model; however, Caliber and purchasable boosts can offer supplementary benefits.

Emote Wheel Customization:

Inventory Access: Open the inventory menu within the game interface.

"Customize" Tab Selection: Navigate to and select the "Customize" tab positioned at the top of the screen.

"Emotes" Sub-section: Locate the "Emotes" sub-section within the "Customize" menu.

Emote Swapping: Choose the emote you wish to equip on the wheel, effectively replacing an existing emote with your selection.

We hope that by using this guide effectively, players can take advantage of emoticons to improve communication and personalize their in-game experience within The First Descendant.
