Emotes <Y> in Lost Ark are animations that come in the form of an item as a learnable “book”.
Many emotes need to be obtained before they can be used in order to complete a specific action. The 3 uses for emotes are:
- Completing Quest Objectives
- Increasing Rapport Level with certain NPCs, and
- Expressing your dissatisfaction with your party members when they inevitably fail at boss mechanics.
Some emotes are available by default, some are obtained during the [Main Quest] line, and others are harder to find. The difficult to obtain ones could potentially take weeks to obtain as they are locked behind daily tasks.
Below is a list of all the Emotes and where to obtain them in Lost Ark. We will update this post with individual step by step guides for some of the more challenging to obtain songs.
Emotes for Rapport
Rapport Emotes are actions that increase the Rapport Level with an NPC. Five (5) Emotes can be completed per day on a single Roster. Emotes reset at 5 am Server Time. These are the same /emote actions that you can obtain from various tasks within the game. The amount of Rapport gained per emote is the same across all NPCs.
