Umbrella Emote

  • Lend me yer ears, ye storm-battered bilge rats — for I’ve a vision to share…

    Picture it: the seas rage, the winds howl, rain lashes your face like Neptune’s own fury. There ye stand — steadfast at the helm, alone, soaked to the bone but unbowed, steering this creaking beast through Poseidon’s tantrum.

    But wait — what’s this? From the belly of the ship comes a sound — squish… squish… squish… — boots dragging through puddles, footsteps of salvation. Through the mist they appear — yer loyal crew, ragged but grinning, each wielding not cutlass nor tankard… but an umbrella, like a banner of defiance against the storm itself.

    They flank ye at the wheel, raising their brollies to the sky — a small, stubborn patch of dry in an endless ocean of wet. Pirates, undaunted by thunder and squall, sheltering together under flimsy fabric and sheer will.

    The Umbrella Emote. Not just a gesture — a symbol that no storm breaks a true crew. Let the lightning flash, let the waves crash — we stand together, dry-ish, defiant, and drenched in laughter.

    So I say — give us our umbrellas. Let us thumb our noses at the Sea’s wrath, one drip at a time. And when the storm clears… we’ll fold ‘em up, raise anchor, and sail on — bonded by brollies and brotherhood.

    Bring it aboard, Rare — the seas await.

  • I like the part where you stand on the deck of the boat with a metal rod with meta rods sticking out of it in a lightning storm. When you have a sword or gun out in a lightning storm you're more likely to get hit, so shouldn't you be more likely to get hit with this too?

  • Considering you need both hands to repair, bucket water out, and hold the course with the wheel difficult to control, holding an umbrella would be quite difficult.

  • @europa4033 That's why yer crew has to be standing next to ye at the helm holding an umbrella over you :).

    And I wouldn't rule out a fun lightning strike or two @PotatoSord - unless it's a primitive umbrella made out of a stick and some palm leaves!

    Yeah no, sorry. My crew has better things to do than stand around holding a pointless umbrella.

  • @europa4033 I mean that's completely fine, nobody said you had to use it. It's an emote, not a requirement.

    In all honesty, I'd like them to spend their dev time, money, and resources fixing the game-breaking bugs we've been dealing with for years now, instead of creating an umbrella emote.

  • Hey, it's you 👀

    Yes, I love this, we need this last week please Rare Friends, infact just scrap the Smugglers and give us a season of umbrellas, thanks!

    I love it. Perfect.

    Lol, I love the harsh critics coming out here. Just an emote idea, could be included in a Season or something. :)!
