purchasable player taunt animation suggestions

I can't believe it haven't been mentioned:

Other than that, the class-taunt is a good idea - seeing my witch flying around, mara hitting his own head, shadow roundhousekicking around, duelist swinging his blade in the air, templar calling the gods and the ranger jumping around would be great.

***Also a chicken dance would be great.

Definitely flipping someone off, but the gesture itself should be pixellated for maximum humour.

I highly doubt that GGG's character models and animation skeletons allow for the movement of individual fingers. That sort of fidelity would be a complete waste of resources in a game like this.

Please allow me to moon the attackers by lifting my kilt, on related news, please allow me to have my Marauder wear a kilt.

Dances — pretty much any dance (football dance, thriller dance, robot dance, napoleon dynamite dance, etc.)

Some people would probably want someway to teabag maybe.

A pirouette or spin would be really cool — with weapon(s) outstretched.

Flashback to my Zombot doing the Thriller dance in Hellgate...

Please, please, no teabagging. I wouldn't PvP at all if people were running around teabagging each other.

Generic taunts:
Flexes
Fist pump
Point and laugh
Beckon ("come get some")

Class-specific (why not?):
Witch - floating spin, as seen in character creation
Marauder - arms back, chest out, yell at the sky, similar to Enduring Cry, but more drawn out
Ranger - ?
Templar - kneeling prayer, maybe with some sort of glow effect
Shadow - ?
Duelist - weapon brandishing, similar to character creation but flashier


Perhaps maybe you could buy a pack of simple emotes? Things like:

/yawn
/bow (Curtsey for girls)
/clap
/cheer
/salute
/sigh

and others? You could sell them in groups of 5 or more?

Alizah - Ranger - (Bow)
Zelkova - Duelist - (Sword+Shield)

The character select animations would work. Maybe add a bit of particle effect to the witch's wand and a giggle, a demented laugh to the shadow, brutish roar to the marauder, etc.

Shadow running a knife blade across his throat

Duelist drawing a line in the dirt with his blades

Templar slamming his staff to the ground or shield/weapon together and chanting an incantation

Ranger and witch could do some seductive pose

A simple yawn, stretch then hand wave to the opponent would be ok also.

/rear turns around and wiggles arse at player

/lookaround "not seeing a challenge anywhere!"

/spinweapon spins weapon about in an over the top fashion as seen in many terrible kung fu movies

/collapse points at player, laughs and collapses on knees, then on ground. probably a bit dangerous!


Does deaths count too?

/finish off

Lops opponents head off [yeah I know..Mortal Kombat from mega drive days..]

/Hateful fury

Attacks body on the ground rabidly, rams a guild flag into the corpse

Yes I had a bad day at work...or year to think of it...decade even...
If GGG chickens made an action RPG, what would it be called? Path of Eggxile, a Peck 'n' Slash RPG.
Why was the helmet spluttering? It was a coif.
I'd just like to chime in and say that the best pose/animation suggested thus far is the Captain Morgan pose [using it after you kill someone]. Much more classy than teabagging, and just as cool and dominatory.

The dark souls "Well... What is it?" gesture is by far the best taunt animation i've seen in any game.
crotch thrusting in opposing players direction? :)
Turn 360° and moonwalk away from the enemy's corpse.
Disregard witches, aquire currency.
